Front Yard of 44 Blueberry Hill, Wednesday Afternoon

[sleepswthdemons]

It was a nice day and Phoebe had climbed the large tree in the front yard. She was about halfway up the tree, reclining with her back against the tree trunk. She was stretched out along the limb and looked both comfortable and precarious.

Why had she climbed the tree?

Because she was struck with the sudden urge to do so.

"Do you not trust me to be able to get you down?" Sam asked quietly.

"How are you going to hold onto me like you want to and climb down?"

She knew him very well.

"Well, see," Sam said, "there's this ladder in the garage . . ."

"Anders? I'm afraid of heights..."

No, she wasn't kidding.

"And you know," Sam said, his voice firmer this time, "that I won't let you fall. You trust me, don't you?"

"Of course I do!" She sounded insulted that he had asked.

"Then sit tight while I get the ladder, and I will come and get you down, and I won't let you fall," Sam said calmly. "Okay?"

"Cole's gonna flail," she said quietly.

"We worry about that after you're safe back on the ground," Sam told her. "Now I mean it, don't go anywhere while I get out there!"

He disappeared from the window again, this time at a run, and the sound of his footsteps thundering down the staircase were probably audible through the window, although the slamming of the back door probably wasn't, so much.
