Young girl, get out of my mind.

The sunlight filtered into the hut she shared with Carson, trying to peek through her closed eyelids. Catherine rolled over, and with a tiny sound, buried her face in the pillow. Except...

Carson was still very much asleep. After clinic duty on Friday nights, he was more than happy to sleep in the next morning. When he felt Catherine stir next to him, he was barely awake enough to register anything she'd said. He rolled over and scrubbed a hand over his face, eyes still closed.

"...wha?"

Catherine thought at that particular moment that it was probably a very good thing that she'd woken up in the nightgown. She would like for Carson not to die of shame.

She shook him gently. "Carson, wake up!"

Carson finally opened his eyes, hesitating a moment before he blinked twice. There was a small girl in his bed, and Catherine was nowhere to be found. He'd been through some odd things on the island, but this was certainly unexpected.

"Hullo...Do I know--" Then it hit him. This had happened to people last year, hadn't it? "Christ, it's happened again, hasn't it?"

Catherine pinched the bridge of her nose wearily, trying not to smart off. "Yes, I think so." She looked at him. "Hey, how come it didn't get you?"
