Calvin sat on the bed. "You'll wanna sit down for this."
"Do you wanna play with your group in the back now?" Victoria asked.
Maya sat-down next to him. Their knees were touching.
"Now, you're probably wondering how I knew that the attack was coming, right?"
Maya nodded slowly, eyes trained on his face.
"He came to me, in my dream. He looked older, almost Annie's age." He whispered. "He broke the rules to get the information to me, that they somehow found out about our raid, and they were coming for you. He never said how they knew what happened or where we were."
Maya just stared at him for a moment, before a strangled sound made it's way out of her mouth. Until that moment, she hadn't known it was possible to laugh and cry at the same time.
"...?" Calvin said nothing else for the moment, waiting for her to calm down first.
She shut her eyes. "Oh." She whispered.
"Yeah." Calvin murmured. "He was really devoted to making sure we were safe."
Her bottom-lip quivered slightly.
Calvin hugged her.
She buried her face in his shirt.
You gonna be okay?
Yes. She smiled slightly.
Okay. Just remember, we keep this to ourselves.
