LOVE AND DREAMS

Gennie was walking up a road towards a picnic area, she saw Nikhil there he was looking over the cliff face suddenly he was not alone Ella was with him, she was screaming and shouting threatening she held Nikhil over the cliff. Ella pushed Nikhil and he started to fall Gennie tried to run to him but her feet would not move, Ella laughed an evil laugh Gennie started to run she fell in some water and got drenched, she got up and to edge of cliff Nikhil was falling faster and faster.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NIKHIL NIKHILL NIKKKKHILLLLLLLLLLLL she squealed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO NIKHILLLLLLLLLLL ",

"Gennie wake up hey Gennie" said Nikhil shaking Gennie" it is ok Gennie it was only a dream Gennie"

Gennie woke up in a cold sweat her hair was wet and stuck to her face and her pyjamas where wet she looked at Nikhil and stared to sob "she had you she killed you" Gennie sobbed.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" soothed Nikhil stroking her wet hair "it was only a dream its ok it was only a dream" he held her tight,

"I am a mess look at me" Gennie sobbed.

"You are beautiful" replied Nikhil

"I'm drenched" Gennie said "and cold",

"Tell you what I will run you a hot bath and wash your hair for you ok?" Nikhil told her.

Gennie nodded "put my special bubble bath in" she told him

"Ok" said Nikhil he went to run Gennie a bath then came back to get her. 20 minutes later hair washed clean pyjamas clean bedding Nikhil and Gennie got back into bed,

"Nikhil I'm too scared to go back to sleep" she said she started to cry again.

Nikhil held her tightly "shhhhhhhhh" he whispered "its ok we will talk till you fall asleep ",

"Hold me" sobbed Gennie, "hold me and don't let me go I'm so scared Nikhil, I don't know what to do I can never go a whole night without a nightmare. And I always have to change my pyjamas and you have to change bedding every night, why aren't you getting sick of me?" she buried her face in Nikhil's chest.

"Because I love you" he replied "and I will hold you tight all night and I will never let anyone hurt you ever again, I love you so much you are my world" he kissed her hair,

"Why? I always look a mess now" Gennie sobbed.

"no you don't" said Nikhil "you always look beautiful" he held her tighter after a few minutes she fell asleep in his arms,

Next morning Gennie woke up still in Nikhil's arms they stayed silent for a while then Gennie spoke "what time is it" she asked.

"12 30" answered Nikhil

"Work" said Gennie,

"you are not going back till you are better Jai says he can cope with out us as long as we need Charity is helping, and you are nowhere near ready to go back yet" Nikhil told her.

"Ok" said Gennie she sighed

Nikhil could see she was about to get upset again he kissed her forehead "you hungry" he asked,

Gennie nodded "starving" she said.

"How about I make your favourite" he asked "and we could spend all afternoon watching movies with all your favourite snacks",

"Could we watch Gavin and Stacey?" asked Gennie "we haven't watched it for a while?"

"Shure" answered Nikhil.

They got up and dressed and Nikhil made Gennie's favroute and they settled down to watch Gavin and Stacey "we need to go Christmas shopping soon" said Gennie,

"well" replied Nikhil "maybe we could go tomorrow we aren't back at work till at least after Christmas so we can do whatever we want till then",

"No its Saturday tomorrow" said Gennie "we promised Noah a picnic in the garden remember and on Sunday we are helping Katie move back in with Declan".

"I don't know why she ever moved out" said Nikhil

"She just did not think she was meant to live there" said Gennie "probley a good job she wasn't living there when they broke up would have been so much harder for her",

"But they are back together now" said Nikhil.

"I know" replied Gennie "but oh never mind you wouldn't understand"

"Probley not" said Nikhil "it's hard to understand how a girl thinks sometimes",

"Gennie giggled "and that is just the way we like it" she told him "we like to keep you guessing" she grinned at him.

Nikhil just laughed "doesn't surprise me" he said he was glad Gennie was smiling again properly, he hated it when she had a nightmare she would sometimes have a bad day feeling tired and upset due to lack of sleep and to many nightmare's the night before. But if he went the right way about it he could make Gennie forget about her nasty nightmare's during the day, he was glad today was a good day and tomorrow and Sunday would be too because Gennie would be kept busy.

"We should go Monday" said Gennie "I want to get Noah something special and that will be difficult if he wants to come with us plus Its Katie and Declan's engagement party on Thursday, we need to get them something for it."

"Can't believe they are getting married" said Nikhil

"I know" said Gennie "that's two weddings this year "ours and Katie's",

"Not long till ours now" smiled Nikhil

"February the 14th" smiled Gennie she looked into his eyes and kissed him.

The next day everyone was getting ready for the garden picnic Gennie had had another nightmare but she and Nikhil had slept till 12 30 again and having the picnic would keep her mind off it.

"Is Aunty Katie still coming and Aunty Brenda and aunty Chas and Aaron" asked Noah

"Of course" Gennie told him,

"Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Said Noah

"In fact" said Gennie "they are here now" she walked over to Chas Katie and Brenda and hugged them.

"Hi darling" said Brenda "I brought you something" she handed Gennie a very old scruffy bear,

"Mr Snuggles" said Gennie.

"Mr Snuggles" laughed Aaron

"Yea" said Gennie "you got a problem with that?"

"Why did you call him Mr Snuggles?" asked Aaron

"Because I was three and he is snuggly" Gennie answered.

"Before you say another word Aaron when you were three you had a bear called Sir Wilkerson" said Chas,

"Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum" said Aaron

"Well well well" grinned Gennie "I'm not saying a word but I am taking Mr Snuggles to bed because he is tired I will be back in a minute" she walked inside the house with Mr Snuggles.

"How was her night" Brenda asked Nikhil

"Not good" said Nikhil "she had another nightmare" he sighed,

"Again?" said Katie "how many last night?"

"Well only one so it's getting better she hasn't had more than one for about a week now" Nikhil answered her.

"Well at least that is an improvement" said Brenda

"Hey what time do you want us tomorrow?" Nikhil asked Katie,

"Any time in the afternoon" Katie told him "Declan and I are off for a drive in the country in the morning"

"Ok" said Nikhil "shame he could not come today".

"I know" said Katie "but he has gone to see Ella to tell her we are getting married"

"That will go down well" said Nikhil he still hated Ella for what she had done to Gennie.

"it should be ok really" said Katie "Ella told him on last visit she does not want to get back with him anymore, she thinks it is best if they are just friends Declan is pretending to be friends with her. Glad it's him if I ever see her again….."

Gennie returned outside "its freezing out here" she said.

"Noah" said Charity "maybe we should have picnic inside it is a bit cold"

"Ok" said Noah they all went indoors Noah put the telly on "what should we watch" he asked,

"How we keep telly off" said Charity.

"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww ok then" said Noah

"Let's eat" said Gennie I'm starving,

"Ok" said Nikhil he handed out sandwiches

"Have you done my chicken in chocolate sauce sandwich" said Gennie.

"Yea done loads" said Nikhil

"Ewwwwwwwwwwwww gross I think that is what this is" said Chas,

"Not gross yummy" said Gennie taking sandwich off Chas and finishing it.

"Is there any ham?" asked Chas "I fancy a ham and crisp sandwich",

"Yea" said Nikhil he gave her a ham sandwich

"That's better" said Chas putting some crisps into the sandwich.

"Ohh Noah I got some new Chocolate for you to try" said Jai "after you have eaten your sandwiches of course" he added seeing Charity's face,

"Cooooooooooool" said Noah

"It had better not make him hyper like the last time you got him to try chocolate" said Charity.

"It won't" said Jai "hey we should do our Christmas shopping on Tuesday" he added changing the subject

"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww but I'm still at school on Tuesday" said Noah,

"Well we are getting stuff for you" said Charity "then we are doing all the rest on Friday with you remember?"

"Ok" said Noah.

"What night is your nativity?" Katie asked Noah

"Wednesday" said Noah "are you coming"

"Yea course I am" Katie told him,

"Are you coming aunty Gennie? He asked Gennie.

"Defiantly" Gennie answered him

"Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" said Noah happily,

"I think you and Sarah have more people coming to see you than all your friends put together" Said Charity. "You've got me, Jai, Gennie, Nikhil, Katie, Declan, Lisa, Zak, Chas and Aaron"

"Is Sarah better now" asked Noah.

"Yea thank God" said Charity she had been so worried about her Granddaughter but she had found a match and had the operation so she was ok now,

"Good" said Noah he finished his sandwiches and ate the chocolate Jai gave him.

"What Charter are you playing in your play" Aaron asked Noah

"Joseph" answered Noah "and Sarah is Mary",

"Cool" said Aaron.

Noah went to put the telly back on Formula one Car racing was on "RACEING COOOOOL" shouted Noah he dived on the sofa and started to jump up and down madly, he jumped off the sofa and ran into the Kitchen making Car racing noises loudly. A few minutes later he returned with a big bowl of chocolate ice cream he jumped back on sofa but he lost his footing and his bowl of ice cream landed on Nikhil's head. Everyone started laughing and giggling at him.

"Wow nice look" giggled Gennie

"Yea" agreed Chas Giggling" chocolate ice cream suits you",

"I knew that chocolate would make him hyper" said Charity laughing "but for once I don't mind it is worth it to see this" she picked up the bowl off the floor and put it on coffee table.

"Can I take a photo" asked Gennie getting her phone out and taking a photo without waiting for an answer,

"Thank you for that Noah" said Nikhil "but I think I am going to take a shower and get all this off" he went up to have a shower.

When he came out Gennie was waiting for him "are you ok" she asked still giggling a bit "this will be a great photo to show our children one day" she showed him the photo,

Nikhil laughed "I do look kind of funny" he said "and it was worth it to see you laughing and happy, I know it has been hard for you so it is good when I can see you smiling and laughing. Evan if It is when I get ice cream all over me , if it makes you smile I will do it all the time because I love you" he told her he kissed her gently.

"I love you too" she smiled "you are so sweet" they kissed again

"Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww gross" said Noah, who had come running up the stairs making more car racing noises,

"Do you think that you could make less noise and" Nikhil asked Noah.

"Nikhil" giggled Gennie "it is too late he has gone"

They went back downstairs everyone was going home now, they said bye to everyone and arranged to be at Home Farm the next day in the afternoon to help Katie move in. When everyone Gennie went for a lie down and a cuddle with Mr Snuggles, while everyone cleaned up.

Nikhil came to get her to watch a film with everyone "hi beautiful" he said

"We are watching Cry Baby you coming?" he asked.

"Yea" Gennie said "is Noah in bed"

"Yea" laughed Nikhil Charity made Jai take him to bed because he would not charm down"

Gennie giggled they went down to watch the film after the film Gennie and Nikhil decided to go to bed they were both very tired so soon fell asleep.
