After Neil brought him inside, and a while later...Todd tossed and turned in his sleep, once again his dreams were dark as his sanctuary turned on him.
He murmered in his sleep.
"Neil...please...don't go. Don't leave...I'm sorry...I should have told you...."
His fevered brow felt clammy, and he softly moaned, "Don't do it...nooo..."
A sound like a gunshot jerked him awake.
"Neil...?" he called scared.
