**************************************************
Delilah sits up in her bed, breathing heavy and fast, and she's sweating.
"Not again" she whispered as she wiped her forehead
Images of her nightmare still flashed through her mind as she caught her breath
The jolt of the car
The scream
The cops voices
"Stop stop stop" she whispered as she held her head, wanting the terrible memories to just melt away
Seeing her mother pulled from the crashed car, through the windshield because the door was crushed
Sitting in that waiting room with a couple nurses
Her dad running through the front doors of the hospital
Her eyes started to water
"DADDY" she screamed and ran to him
He dropped to his knees and held her
Claire and bubba were right there, hugging her as soon as Harry let her go
The tears fell slowly down her cheeks as she sat, alone, in her dark bedroom
"Is she okay?" Harry asked when a doctor approached them
"I'm sorry" the dr started.. "We lost her during the surgery"
Broken sobs escaped Delilah's lips into the cold room and she put her hands on her face
She hated the recurring nightmares she'd had since her mother passed away. She hated the images that flashed through her mind, the memories that just wouldn't fade away..
Her door slowly creaked open and she jumped a little.. then she seen her almost three year old brother stumble tiredly into the room with one hand rubbing his eye and the other clasping his teddy bear
"Sissy?" he asked
"Hey, bubby.." she whispered and wiped her tears
She was 6, almost 7 now.. and he was about to turn 3.
"Can I sleep in your bed?" he asked through a little yawn
She nodded and moved the covers back
He crawled into the bed next to her and she wrapped her arms around him
After a few silent minutes, he whispered "You miss your real mommy?"
She sniffled and nodded
"You still love our mommy?" he asked
"Of course I do.. I always will. She's great."
"I love her.. and daddy. And you, Dee--dee"
"I love you too, Mal.. lets sleep, okay?"
"otay"
