sign_seekerWill manages to slip downstairs to the lavatory without being seen by any of his family. He washes his face more carefully than usual, splashing on water until he's sure that no sign of the earlier tears remains. Then he cleans his teeth, says his goodnights, and heads back to his room.
Upstairs again, he eyes his comfortable bed warily. He knows that this nightmare will return, at least in fragmented bits, and more dreams besides; it's still much too clear in his thoughts. He is exhausted, though, and so he changes into pyjamas and climbs into bed. He's sure it will take him a long time to fall asleep; it takes barely a minute before the world fades away.
And he has all of five minutes of dozing off before the dreams start.
