*Abbie's POV*

It was 2 in the morning, and I couldn't sleep at all.

I kept on thinking about this afternoon- technically yesterday's afternoon- and about what happened between me and Ichabod.

People fight all the time! I told myself.

On yesterday's afternoon, (when we got back from dropping Irving off at the hospital) we didn't say anything...

I don't know if it was honestly, like, a fight, but I knew that it was something.

I got up out of my bed and walked to the kitchen, realizing how huge of a headache I was having that moment.

I got in the kitchen and leaned on the granite counter tops, thinking about how I'm going to be a complete mess in about 5 1/2 hours.

*Ichabod's POV*

Strange how tonight it was impeccably hard to shut my eyes.

Was Liutenate Mills aggravated at me? Or was she thinking none of it?

I didn't mean to raise my voice- I just cared about her too much.

She saved me when I came to this generation- I would honestly be dead if she wasn't here with me, helping me, showing me step-by-step how to live in this world.

I've gotta apologize in the morning.

*Abbie's POV*

My head hurts like crap.

I literally has 10739292 thoughts going through my head..

'I wonder if he's awake?'

'Is he mad at me?'

'Does he think I'm mad at him?'

'Im starving.'

I turned my head direction to the fridge- but all of a sudden, i heard a crash and a-

"oh crap."

"keep it down, stupid !"

My head and shoulders shot up- suddenly wide awake again.

That was not Ichabod's voice.

I silently closed the fridge and went to the room where he was sleeping,

I whisper/shouted his name right before I got in his room, but when I turned my eyes to meet his, they weren't there.

He wasn't in his room.

*Ichabod's POV*

What the hades did I just hear.

I shot up off the couch and ran out of the room, going to find Abbie.

"ABBIE?" I said as I was going cautiously around the house to find her.

I ran to her room to warn her, but she wasn't there.

Where was she!

I got a type of panic in my gut that I've never gotten before.
I was scared out of my mind.

I shot my head back and ran down the hallway, panic shooting up my arms- trying to keep my calm.

There was someone in the house.

I was running down the hallway until I reached the bathroom.

There was a huge hole in the screen of it.

I immediately went to the 'secret' closet where she kept a few of the weapons from the police station.

I bent down and grabbed a tranquilizer dart gun that was in the compartment- right where Abbie keeps them.

I grabbed the last one out of the 2, so I knew that she must have grabbed the other, which meant that she was awake and alive.

Relief rushed through me, making me less tense.

I went BACK to the kitchen to check over there again, then stopped in my tracks.

Taking about 0.5 seconds to think about my decision and/or plan, I ran straight to the intruders, tranquilizer gun raised and ready to fire.

*Abbie's POV*

He was absolutely no where here.

But the intruders? Oh they were here alright.

I ran absolutely everywhere in this house- or maze, whatever you want to call it- and he was nowhere.

I heard another pound- then a shot.

As I prayed that the shot came from him, I ran to the kitchen where I heard it coming from.

I was both rushed with relieve and terror as I saw Ichabod, his gun pointed at one guys chest, along with his hand around one guys neck- pinning him to he wall.

The reason I was also filled with terror? Because he had a not so deep but very wide bloody gash going down his arm, but he acted like it didn't phase him one bit.

He turned his head to mine, our eyes locking mine, and suppressing a small grin as I did.

But just in his moment of distraction, the guy that was pinning him against the wall rushed his other hand clenched into a fist right into his head.

"WATCH HIM, RETARD!!"
I yelled at the top of my lungs as I shot him in an instant as Ichabod did to the other guy he was pointing his gun at.

I ran over to him, both of us hugging for about 2 minutes before he started cussing out the guy that was laying on the floor.

"I'm sorry." I said to him.

"There's no need to be sorry if anything I should be the one apologizing.."

We both went over to the couch facing the TV and fell backwards onto it and closed our eyes.

About 10 minutes later, when I finally knew what to say, I replied.

"Ichabod. I understand now."

"Understand what?" He said as he turned his head to me.

"How you were freaking out about yesterday when I almost got shot.. I see how scared you were now.. That's what I'm feeling now- well obviously not anymore, but what I did think.."

He sighed.

"It's just frustrating sometimes.. To think that anything could've happened that moment- we couldn't of had the guns, it could've been only one of us here, you could've found him before I did- all these possibilities that scare me half to death.."

"Well.. They didn't. The past is in the past for a reason, right?" I said smiling a bit to try and brighten the depressing moods.

He smiled back.

"Your right, as always Miss Mills..

Your right as always" :)
