*shudders a little as her head snaps up, gaze set on him*

*something twists inside her again, because she's going to give that one answer and he'll remember where it lead to the last time, and she's not sure it's a good time or place. or if it will ever be a good time and place for this...for remembering*...couldn't sleep...*normally she isn't one to offer euphemisms, but she's sure he can tell what's bothered her*

...stupid nightmare, is all...*looks down into her tea, trying hard not to remember the reccuring nightmares of her fight against Sasori. she still doesn't know why she's had it again now, why so violent, why so vivid, but figures that maybe it has something to do with that day of total darkness...it had reminded her of her almost death; the lack of sight, the panic, the loneliness*

*and makes a point out of not looking at him, focusing on her tea cup, or his hands, or his feet*...yeah, same one...
