Chloe POV

I woke up, groaning in frustration. I was sweating and there were salty tears all over my cheeks. There was darkness all around me. I could see the moon, shining slightly from the middle of the night sky, through the window. I thought about my dream once again. Or more like a nightmare than a dream. Tears started to run down my cheeks once again. I placed my hand on the nightstand table, trying to find my phone. I accidentally brushed my fingers over some paper. I tried to figure out what was written on it, but it was just too dark to see a thing. I made another try to get my phone, this time, a successful one. I checked the time. It was 5:39. I used the light from my phone to look at the paper. There were few sentences written on it. I smiled when I saw Mikey's signature at the bottom. "Call me even in the middle of the night and I will pick it up. Promise." I saved his new number and deleted his old one. Then, I punched the green button on my BlackBerry. There was a beep and then another one. "Talie? Is there anything wrong, love?" I heard the soft, melodic and sweet voice of Mikey.

"Mikey? I'm so sorry for waking you up, but you wrote-," I started, but he didn't let me finish. "That you can call me whenever you want to. That's right. Plus, I wasn't sleeping. But tell me, is everything alright?" he said and sounded worried. "Mikey, I, I had a horrible nightmare," I whispered, starting to cry again. "Shhh, shhh, baby. It's okay. It's okay," he whispered softly. I tried to catch my breath. "It was, we, we were all at home and suddenly, the doorbell rang. Bob went to open the door and we heard him scream immediately. There were people, about, about 20 of them," I said, making a pause to calm myself down. Mikey didn't interrupt me. "They were all wearing, dark hoodies, with the hoods over there heads. They went to Bob and started punching him, everywhere, his face, his stomach. And he died in few seconds," I said and started to cry once again. "You don't have to tell me. You don't have to, love," Mikey whispered. I ignored it and continued. "Then, one of them looked up on me. Or, just turned his face to me. The thing is, that he didn't have a face at all. There was just darkness, there where his face was supposed to be. Then, they killed Ray. And then Gerard. We all tried to help him and save him, but it didn't work. They were too strong. My brother managed to call the police then. And then he told us two, to go, to escape, that he's gonna hold them back. I didn't wanna go, but you forced me to. I saw them killing my brother, I even saw the blood streaming down his whole body. We managed to get to the door. But then, they got...," I was crying so hard that I couldn't speak anymore. I took a breath. "They got, you," I finished, almost not breathing, because of the crying. "But I, I woke up in the hospital. I was alive," I finished off my story completely. "You see? You got saved!" Mikey said softly. I sobbed even more. "Mikey, that's the problem. I would be million times happier, if I would die along with you. But without you guys, I wouldn't be able to keep on living," I said. I heard him gasped. "That's...kinda, sweet of you," he whispered. "I'm sorry for waking you up, go back to sleep, Mikey," I said quickly. "No. I'm gonna see you in an hour and half, I'm getting up, anyway," he answered. "That's so sweet of you. See you then,"

"See you!" he said and then whispered something so quietly, I couldn't catch it. I turned on the other side and fall asleep very quickly, knowing, that when I'm gonna wake up, Mikey's gonna be here.

I opened my eyes to stare into the beautiful brown of Mikey's eyes, behind the glasses. "Good morning, love," he said softly, giving me a warm hug. I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face into the softness of his neck, inhaling his scent. He smelled perfectly. "Mikey, it's so nice that you came," I answered before finally pulling away. "I missed you," he stated softly. It was so sweet of him. "I missed you too," I answered truthfully. He gave me a warm smile and then pointed on the nightstand table. There was a vase with three dark red roses in it.

"You bought me flowers? That's so nice of you! Thank you very much, they're beautiful," I breathed out thankfully. We changed smiles then again and started chatting about some random things. The doctors came to check on me and I even got breakfast. I was pissed, because there was no coffee. Mikey stayed with me whole morning, until 12 o'clock. Then my brother and Gee were supposed to come and visit me. They were late. It was 12:10 and they still weren't there.

"What is taking them so long?" I asked nervously. Mikey squeezed my hand and even stroked my hair. It was like heaven. "They're gonna be here soon, don't worry," he tried to persuade me.

"But what if something happens to them. Mikey, I'm scared!" I whispered, turned my face to the ground, because I knew I was blushing lightly. I was hysterical and over reactive. But that was partly because of the attack and partly because of the nightmare. I felt Mikey's finger under my chin. He lifted my face up, to catch my eyes and my look. "Nothing happened to them, okay? Nothing," he said, not interrupting our eye contact. "Don't be scared. I'm here. I'm gonna protect you," he whispered. Then, without looking away from my eyes, he leaned his face closer to mine. He hesitated there for a second and then pressed his lips against mine own ones. They were so soft and he tasted sweetly. He deepened the kiss then, cupping my face with his right hand, I felt him smiling against my lips, as I returned the kiss. I wished this moment would last forever. After few minutes, he pulled away and rested his forehead against mine.

I brushed his hair away from his glasses, so I could see into his eyes completely. I opened my mouth to speak, after another few moments of silence. "Mikey," I started sweetly. Suddenly, there was some noise outside the door and then somebody knocked. We changed scared looks. Mikey gave me a quick peck on my cheek and then pulled away quickly.

"Come in!" I called then. Frankie and Gerard barged into the room. "Talia! How are you?" Frankie called happily instead of saying hi. He pulled out a bouquet of light red lilies. They were perfect. "Frankie! Thank you, they're awesome!" I answered and hugged my brother from the bed, what wasn't such an easy thing. Gee gave me a huge smile. "You're getting lots of flowers today," he said and I nodded, pulling him into a hug too. "So, I'm gonna add some more!" he said and handed me a mini bouquet of daisies. "Gee? They're perfect, thank you," I managed to answer.

"So, what were you and Mikes doing here before we came and whole morning?" Frankie, my brother asked.
