It's an awful set of dreams he has. Dreams of weird tree stumps in the middle of the woods. Or the old high school. The middle of the surgical theatre. The sounds of mountain lions, wolves and foxes. The feeling of ice cold water.

It's awful, and eventually he wakes up with a...possibly louder than he'd like start. And disoriented, notices that Lydia isn't in bed with him. "Lydia?" It takes him a moment to be able to speak without hoarseness in his voice, and to get up and make his way out of the bedroom.
