Una
I watch them closely as they walk back to the car, there’s a tension to their gait that they don’t normally show and they were gone too long. They exchange no words. I feel the nerves in my stomach begin to flutter.
They open the doors and slide in, neither looks to the back seat but they start chattering about the route and driving plans. I let some of the breath I was holding release. At the end of the fight Cormac had looked at me so strangely and I almost felt like he could really see me. My nerves had been on edge ever since.
Now they seem normal and the convoy takes off again. The constant smooth motion of the car lulls me into a sleep to pass the time.
My dream makes me smile. I’m in the heather fields that surrounded the northern border of Brigadoon. It has been so long
