Jeremy lay on his bed on Destiny, away from the Omicrons and the Bounty Hunter and Order war, the nomads, everything. He had taken a few days off after his patrols and a few fights.
As he lay on his side, the door creaked open. He knew it was Rika by the way the person walked. As he felt the pressure on the bed go down on the other side, he used his telekenisis to gently float her over him and to his side of the bed. She landed with a soft plop! and giggled softly.
"Hey,"
"Shouldnt you be asleep?"
"Jeremy... I had a bad dream."
Jeremy pulled her closer, gently putting her head onto his chest so he could kiss the top of her head. "Its ok Rika. I'm here. Its was just a dream, and in your dreams, its your imagination. Its YOUR power."
Rika smiled and snuggled closer. In a few moments he felt her breath on his neck as she fell asleep. He sighed as he heard more feet, and now Ellie came in. She slipped onto the bed and put her back to Jeremy, her shoulders to the small of her back touching.
"Couldnt sleep?"
Ellie sighed. "I wanted to say sorry...I really never did, considering what I did."
Jeremy reached back and patted her side. "I'm not holding any grudges. And I always will forgive you. Oh..." Jeremy cleared his throat. "Seth, might as well join us. We're all here."
THe twins looked over to see the dark-coated brother of thiers melt from the shadows. The coat went off. He stretched and slid in next to Ellie. He sighed.
"Ditto what Xion said."
Jeremy laughed quietly. "Ditto what I said."
The siblings all fell asleep, thier concienses cleared.

Rika woke up to find Ellie holding her, with a note on the nightstand.
Sorry kiddo, but duty calls. Stay strong with the others for me, ok? Love you.
