and now in real life i'm waking up to roses.
champagne, kisses and i know it's always,
always gonna be,
gonna be this way

in my dreams he's standing right beside me
two hearts finally colliding
when i wake up, i realize,
realize this is real life.

She hates this new distance between them. Physically they are, of course, closer than they've ever been (kissing passionately, hands roaming, and clothes on the verge of coming off), but she in love with him. She's almost certain this is just a fling in his mind, or maybe… cousins with benefits? (but that sounds so twisted!).

"I love you, Rose."

It doesn't feel right coming off his lips. "James…James, stop."

He freezes and looks up at her uncertainly.

"You don't really love me, James. Do you?" she asks, her voice picking up hopefully.

"Rose… Yes. I love you."

"For real?" she asks, smiling playfully.

"For real."

So maybe they're not so distant.
