"Xander…" Yera mumbled. Tears fell from her eyes.
"Darling... I'm here." She could hear Xander's voice calling her, but Yera refused to open her eyes. She was afraid that it was just a dream. She was scared to wake up only to find out that Xander's voice she was hearing was just her imagination.
"Darling… Open your eyes," Yera heard Xander's voice once more, but she still didn't open her eyes. She was really scared… What if, once she opened her eyes, Xander was not really there calling her? No! She would not be able to bear it. She could not accept it! She did not want to lose Xander that way. She would rather not be awoken at all.
Yera winced when she felt a warm hand touching her cheek… "Darling, please wake up. It's me. I'm here," Xander's voice followed that gentle touch.
Yera slowly opened her eyes and saw his familiar figure.
