Rose couldn't tell him what she knew. She just clung tightly and cried. She was being faced with her worst fear all over again. The humanity of her friends.

AFR was no fool... the last time she cried this much was over the same realization. "Rose... it's about... me isn't it?... no... not just me... Listen." He separated her from him a moment so she could look into his eyes... it pained him to see them full of tears.... he wiped them away that he could. "This is a sour future... but that future doesn't have to come true. There's still plenty of time left to change this path to a new future... one of promise. I'm not going to let anyone break your heart that way. I will fight for it... and if I must... I will retreat for it too.... I know how much my life means to you... I promise I won't put it in jeopardy." Is what he said making a difference... could his will change his future?... He hoped so... for her sake not his own. He let her chin go and would allow her to compose or return to his side. Either way he'd stay with her for the night if she asked.

Rose's lower lip quivered. She hated being like this. She missed when she didn't cry. But at the same time, she didnt. Rose after listening for a moment, found herself re-attached to his side. She was scared as hell. The future was scaring the ever loving hell out of her. That vision was messing with her. And somewhere deep in the back of her mind, she knew who was coming. But she didn't want to admit it.

AFR held her close trying to calm her. holding her and keeping the light from her eyes/ He couldn't help it, but to kiss the top of her head. His protectiveness of her was at all time highs. He had another brush with his death in her eyes.... and no matter how many times he could tell her it wasn't going to happen... well. it would eventually. now it was just making it happen later then sooner. "I'm right here, Rose. Close your eyes... and look into my thoughts." For once someone else was trying to push calming things from their mind into hers. The things AFR thought of were typical stuff you'd see in those commercials for music CDs for stress relief... like water falls and rolling hills of waving grain and such. Small animals playing near a river bend and just him thinking pleasant things to tell her. Everything kind he could think of to try to calm her down.

The sobbing would slowly subside. And eventually, AFR would find that his calming thoughts had put her to sleep. An emotional coma, if you will. Her grip never loosened though. She breathed evenly, quietly. Maybe she wouldn't have any visions tonight. Her mind stayed directly linked to his, all his thoughts and imagery circling through her mind like a CD on repeat while she slept.

AFR stayed up for her... his thoughts and images he offered to her wouldn't stop. He half smiled as she cradled in his arms... and he pressed on making her as comfy as he could. "Goodnight. Rose."
