So I just wanted to thank everyone for all the reviews that you guys have been leaving. They really do make me happy, I promise.
Melanie's point of view;
I couldn't sleep, as bad as I wanted too. As soon as I would fall asleep, I would get these horrible nightmares, they haunted me. They were dreams of me in the meadow again, seeing that little girl. Her face haunted me, and I'm not sure why. She wasn't scary, but the situation was. I could feel my heart speed up just thinking about it. I turned to face Jared, my face in his chest. I gently stroked his arm muscles with my pinky as I took a couple deep breaths in to calm myself. I couldn't help but adore him, and think of how beautiful that child would have been. Tears clouded my eyes as I ran my fingers over Jared's chest, tracing his collarbone. I leaned my head in and left small kisses along his collarbone. It was late no doubt, and I was exhausted. I could see his eyes flutter open and gently look at me. I gently smiled at him as I kissed his cheek and told him to go back to sleep. He smiled as I seen his eyes close once again, I knew I couldn't keep him up mainly because he had work to do tomorrow. I tried to close my eyes and fall asleep, I knew I couldn't stay up forever. I took a couple deep breaths in and let my mind drift away. It went to a dark place in the universe that coursed through my mind. It was a cold place, like an ocean in December. It was cold everywhere and there was no way out, I was drowning in my sorrow. There I was again, in the meadow. There was the little girl again, and she was crying and screaming. I couldn't get her to stop crying, and I kept bleeding. She wouldn't tell me who she was,she just said it will come in time. I could feel my heart deepen and hit the bottom of my toes, and bleed. Was this someone of Jared's past that I should be afraid to ask him about. I could feel my body start to tremble as the claps of thunder grew louder than a hungry lion. I felt someone shake me, but I couldn't wake up. The little girl started to scream and cover her ears as I heard a loud crash.
The next thing I knew my eyes were open and I was looking at a worried Jared. I came back to reality and my cheeks were soaked, from my tears I'm guessing.
"Mel, are you okay?" He asked as he pulled me into his hug, I couldn't help but cry from exhaustion and everything else that has happened.
"I keep getting these nightmares." I sobbed into his chest, trying not to get him all wet from my tears. I could see that the sun was rising, so it was early. Sometimes Jared would wake up early, go to the office for a check up and then come home and work. He must have been ready to get up and go to the office.
"About what? Tell me about them right now." He demanded as he wrapped his arms tighter around me and rested his face in my hair.
"This little girl, she looks just like you, and I just hear her scream." I said, leaving out some key information. I couldn't tell him about the meadow, he would think I was crazy. I didn't need him to think something was wrong with me.
I seen him swallow hard as he looked away from me, avoiding my eye contact. I touched his shoulder but he didn't move at all.
"I don't want to talk about it." He said as he stood up and still avoided eye contact with me. I began to worry, what was so bad that he had to hide it from me.
"Jared you can tell me anything." I said as I tried to catch his gaze again, I felt bad but I needed to know why something from his past would affect me. Was this a sign or something?
"Did I say I wanted to tell you anything?" He snapped. My face dropped to his harsh tone, he really didn't need to be that rude. I felt a little hurt from his words, not to mention the stress I was already going through. I walked out of his room, without saying a word to him. If he wanted to be rude to me for no reason then I would return that favor just for him. I felt annoyed by his words, why does he always have to shut me out. I laid in my bed and fell asleep, this time the nightmare didn't come. I could finally fall asleep and let my body enjoy being shut off for a little bit. I really didn't want to put up with anyone right now. I couldn't help but wake up an hour later and feel anxious,and upset.
PageBreak;
It was dinner time and Jared still hasnt even said a word to me, let alone look at me. I cant help but feel angry at his childish ways. If he didn't want to tell me something, he could have told me and then left it at that. I know I nag sometimes, but that's what happens when you care right?
With Ian and Wanda;
I was setting up Christmas decorations in our little house, our getaway. I knew it might have been a little early, but I have always been a sucker for Christmas time. The thought of what happened was numb in my head, I couldn't help but still blame myself. I couldn't help but think what Jared said was right, that it would be best to just leave Melanie alone. I feel like when I'm with her she always ends up getting hurt. The thought of what he said rang through my head. "You ruined our family." Kept repeating and burning into my head. Cutting my nerves and feelings like a sharp blade. Right now Ian was out getting dinner for us, he said he had a surprise. I knew everything would soon be okay, but I couldn't stop the bad feeling that rang through my stomach. I ignored Jared's words as I texted Melanie, focusing on our friendship and just what Jared wants. If it was up to me she would be out of there, he is nothing but bad for her.
"Hey is everything okay?" I asked her. Nervous if she would actually write me back.
"No, Jared's ignoring me." Of course he is, this is no surprise.
I didnt know what to say back to her so I just called her. We talked and she told me what happened, and I told her why I didn't call her.
I guess you could say she is a little angry at Jared, I couldn't help but laugh.
He should know, its all friends before guys.
So why is Wanda acting like this? I just want to thank everyone for all the good reviews.:)
They really mean a lot, honestly!
