Hey guys! How are y'all doing? Thank you so so much for the reviews to last chapter, I'm happy you liked it and I hope you don't think I'm evil 'cause what i wrote. Belive me, I felt so bad writing that.
But the sadness isn't quite over. This chapter is not long, but it's just a little description of which big pain both Ness and Jake are in. it's both their POV's but you'l notice it. The chapter and te lyrics before each dream are from Paramore's amazing song 'We are broken'. I had that song on repeat during the entire writing of last chapter and this, the song is just perfect.
And well, wanted to say that after tis chapter are there only four- yes FOUR- chapters left of this story 'tears'. So let's ejoy this as much as we can, shall we?
LOVELOVELOVE!
We are broken
Nessie's POV
I am outside
And I've been waiting for the sun
And with my wide eyes
I've seen worlds that don't belong
My mouth is dry
With words I cannot verbalize
Tell me why we live like this
Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me…
I knew I was dreaming because everything was perfect.
The sun hit my back as I opened the little gate that surrounded a big, white house.
The garden was so impeccable it could've been the yard of a castle.
For each step I took on the steps to the porch of the house did a smile grew on my face.
I was listening eagerly to any kind of noise that came from inside the house.
I heard the TV playing childish melodies that got stuck in your head, the tap was open, pouring water, I heard small and quick footsteps running up the stairs followed by big and noisy ones. And then I heard a 'Got'cha'
I had such a big smile it almost hurt my cheeks.
I opened the door just in time for Jake to come down the stairs with a child in his arms.
"Mommy!" the little boy was stretching his arms towards me and I let go of everything in my hands to receive him.
Jake passed him to me with a smile and the kid with an even bigger smile, still not loosing the scary alike resemblance to Jake.
I hugged him tight and firm, trying to pass all the love I felt for this little boy into his body. I put my nose on the top of his hair, breathing in his delicious scent, his baby smell.
He looked up at me with his big eyes and smile that was just like Jake's.
"I love you, mommy" the baby said to me.
"I love you too" was not hard to reply. It came so naturally.
The little baby boy then signaled to me he wanted down so I put him down. He ran away with tiny legs and I couldn't help but laugh.
"He runs like you" I told Jake that came close.
"But he's just like you. Stubborn as hell"
I giggled and before I could finish had Jake placed a kiss on my lips. A kiss so loving it made everything spin.
Then did the most unexpected sound appear. I looked out the window to prove my point. Rain was pouring down from a now scary grey sky and another thunder broke from the sky.
"Mommy!" the little boys voice screamed as he ran and clossed his arms around my legs.
I bent down to hug him. I felt his tiny scared heart pound in his chest.
"It's okay" I hushed before another thunder erupted.
"Mommy!" he screamed even louder.
"Mommy is here, it's okay" I repeated. Over and over. But no one answered.
It didn't take long before I realized there was no other heartbeat than mine.
I looked down to see my arms empty, only embracing myself.
'Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adore?
Give us life again
'Cause we just wanna be whole
Jake's POV
Lock the doors
'Cause I like to capture this voice
That came to me tonight
So everyone will have a choice
And under red lights
I'll show myself it wasn't forged
We're at war, we live like this
"Jake! Catch him!" Nessie's playful voice called me from inside the house.
A sweet laughter made my lips rise to a smile.
The little boy was halfway down the stairs when Nessie came up behind him and wrapped her arms around the boy.
The boy screamed with delight as Ness tickled him. Her long hair covering them up.
I enjoyed the sight that I was seeing. It was so perfect. Almost to perfect.
"Daddy!" the boy called. Ness had let him go and he was now running with his tiny legs towards me.
I crunched down ready to receive him when a thunder made me look up to the grey sky.
But I kept my arms open, waiting for the boys body to collapse with mine. But he didn't come.
When I removed my eyes from the sky did I see that no one was running. The space between me and the house was empty.
I only saw Nessie's tear filled eyes.
'Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adore?
Give us life again
'Cause we just wanna be whole
Nessie's POV
The tears where in my eyes as I woke up.
Jake was kneeling next to me, his head buried in my lap.
I ran my fingers through his hair and he woke up.
His eyes where red and swollen, just like I knew mine where too.
I knew exactly what he was thinking and he knew what I was thinking.
Neither of us could believe what had happened.
He showed me his dream, nightmare. And I showed him mine. We where connected, we felt our pains.
He rose up from his kneeling position to sit next to me on the stretcher I laid on.
He wrapped his arms around me and rocked me. He, just like I, was crying silent tears.
We where broken, but together, we would try to be whole.
Tower over me…
Tower over me…
And I'll take the truth at any cost.
