  Summary

  "Your face," Dream says, voice gone low and gravel-pitched. "I find myself rather attached to the look of it."

  Suddenly, Hob feels sixteen again. Dream still holding that cotton ball. Hob's lip still bleeding down his chin.

  "I don't like seeing you hurt," Dream had said, quietly, secretly.

  Summary

  "He would've hurt you."

  "Yes," Dream says, and his fingers in Hob's t-shirt clench tighter. Hob wonders if Dream can feel the jackrabbit beat of his heart through the thin fabric.

  "Then I did what I had to, didn't I?"
