I frowned, holding my breath. Bellamy was a highly intuitive person and if she had a ‘feeling’ about someone, good or bad, she was always right.
“Not about him.”
“But...?” I prompted.
“I just feel like something’s coming,” she said.
“Well, shit,” I breathed out, turning off the water and grabbing a towel. “I don’t know if I can handle much more.” I sat on the little seat in the shower to dry off before standing again and wrapping my towel around me. “I’m getting out now.”
Bellamy slid the curtain back and helped me lift the walker out, drying it off as I stepped out. “You’re so much stronger,” she said.
“I keep telling all of you that, but you don’t seem to believe me,” I teased.
“We believe you. We just want to baby you a little.”
I chuckled. “I get it.”
“Indy?” Mina said through my door.
“She’s supposed to be asleep,” I whispered.
“I’ll get her,” Bellamy said, and headed to the door, pulling it open. “Hi, baby, you okay?”
“Where’s Ekyll?”
“He’s at church,” I said, shuffling from the bathroom into my bedroom. “Remember?”
Mina sniffed.
“Did you have a bad dream?” Bellamy asked, and Mina nodded.
“I’m going to get my pajamas on, but how about if Bellamy reads you a story while I do that?”
“Okay,” she said.
“You go pick a book,” Bellamy said. “I’m just going to help Indigo first.”
Mina nodded and left my room.
“I’m good, Bell,” I insisted.
“Humor me.”
Despite my objection, she helped me with my pajamas and helped me back to my chair before heading into Mina’s room to read to her.
Jekyll walked in about twenty minutes later, smiling as he walked over to me, but his smile seemed forced.
“Hey,” I said, gripping his chin as he leaned down to kiss me. “What’s wrong?”
“Rough night, baby. I’m okay.”
“Ekyll!” Mina squeaked, rushing into the room with Bellamy chasing her.
“Jesus, she’s quick,” Bellamy panted out as Mina slammed her tiny body into Jekyll’s legs.
Jekyll’s hand went to Mina’s head, and he tipped her chin up. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
“She had a nightmare,” I said.
