"Only halfway." he said, kissing her again.
Later on....

DREAM
Running.
Just running, through the graveyard, gun in hand. He didn't know what was chasing him....he didn't want to know. All he knew was that it wanted him dead. He turned briefly, firing twice into the darkness.
He turned again, and stumbled, falling on his stomach. He turned on his back, and started to crawl away, when he saw it.
Lilah Morgan. Striding towards him, looking as confident as ever.
For a moment he couldn't believe she was what he was running from. He chuckled a little, and fired a shot into her stomach. She glanced down at the wound, shrugged, and transformed, into the goon, the man who'd taken Faith.
Suddenly, the gun was out of his hand, and the man from Wolfram and Hart bent down, picking him up, and bringing him close, his feet dnagling off the ground. "Do you really think either of you are safe...in...that place?"
His face contorted, twisting until it looked exactly like Faith....and then she vamped out, sinking her teeth into his neck.
END DREAM

Shannon awoke to Henry sweating and mumbling in his sleep, in the early hours of the morning. She sat up and shook him "Henry? Henry you are having a bad dream honey, it is ok wake up..."

He awoke adbruptly, and looked down at Shannon. "Nothing, nothing...I guess I don't always dream about those three things."

Shannon stifled a giggle, "Oh dear, who was a dinosaur and who was naked?"

"Neither." he said. "It was more of a nightmare." He touched his neck slightly.

Shannon lay down once more her arm stretched out playing with his hair, "Honey, is this our lives now? In a crumbling old hotel, in fear of our lives?"

"Well, for the hotel, no. Not in the least. But right now it's the most comfortable, and safe, alternative. No rent to pay, nothing. It's a nice enough place, and if things ever get too dangerous, we take my car, leave for someplace else." he said. "I'm not scared of Wolfram and Hart. They got what they came for."

Shannon smiled to herself, she hoped he meant to look after her, she was not as strong as she pretended to be. "Yes we are ok for now..."

"Yeah. For now." he said, kissing her head.

Shannon's fingers traced a pattern on his bare chest, she wished she could see the future, that their words would make a difference, make her feel more secure.
