Orpheum

Warnings: language and thought of death
---

I was hanging at the Orpheum, with Alex, head on his shoulder, just thinking about how I died. I looked over, up at Alex, with him glaring over me, "what?" I hummed out.

He shook his head, "sorry, just thinking about when we died," I scooted up, "Same I-" I stopped at the sight of Willie poofing in, "I'll go," Alex shook his head holding onto me, but I poofed away.

I poofed into the studio, seeing Reggie writing down something, "Hey, babe, watcha doin?" He flinched looking up, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. What is up?" I said worriedly.

I walked over fairly quickly, "W-what is making you jump?" He shook his head, "S-Sorry," I sat down, cupping his head into my chest, "What is wrong?" I kissed his head.

I felt warm tears fall onto my arm, I furrowed my eyebrows, "I-I-I'm scared," I lifted him, pulling him into a hug.

He snuggled into the crook of my neck, "W-what are we gonna do? What if the other side is a scary place? I-I'm sorry. I wanted to be strong, but I can't." He cried out in pain.

I shushed him, as we were now rocking back and forth. "Reg, I-I'm scared too. We just have to be here for each other." He nodded lifting his head, kissing my forehead.

"I-I'm sorry for crying. I need to be tough for you." I shook my head, cupping his cheeks, "No. No. No. You can't hold things in. I am here for a reason, I'm here to help you with anything. I-I'm your girlfriend Reggie, I will always be here. Don't ever think you have to hold back your feelings. I love you, Reg."

He had more tears forming in his eyes, "I-I didn't mean to make you cry again!" He laughed, "don't worry, it's a good cry," he whispered out, kissing me softly.

Mumbling against my lips, "I love you too, baby," he pushed me back on the couch, Turing his head out towards the coffee table while on my chest.

A moment goes by before I speak, "Reg, how are you so sweet?" I felt him smirk on my stomach, not answering.

I brushed my fingers through his hair, while he rubbed my thigh, giving me all the butterflies in the world.

He soon after, with his other free hand, gently put up my shirt, resting it on my stomach, making me want to die. We slowly fell fast asleep.

I woke up to Reggie slowly lifting off of me, "No, no, no, go back to sleep," I giggled lightly, "Where are you going?"

He finished getting off of me, "Going to hang out with Ray," I nodded, "Can I come?" He laughed, picking me up off the couch, and firmly gripping my legs around him.

He sat down at the table, while I was still wrapped around him. I still felt really tired, so I tried drifting back off to sleep.

"What's with her?" Reggie shook his head, "Just tired, Alex, leave her alone," I wanted to giggle, but I felt too weak to do it.

They talked a little bit after, something about Carlos, and how something was dumb or stupid. I don't even know, I couldn't keep track of anything.

I woke up later that night to yelling, I slowly opened my eyes, seeing a girl with pulled back braids and Julie yelling.

"What's wrong?" I questioned groaning, "Nothing, go back to sleep," I shook my head, standing up, and quickly poofing to the studio.

As I poofed into the studio, I felt a jolt hit me, causing me to fall to the ground. Why have I been so tired? I looked up, wincing at how fast I moved, seeing the boys rushing over to my side.

"Dawn, What the hell! Are you okay?!" I nodded coughing. They all looked at me confused, "I'm scared, guys," they all came to the ground, pulling me into a group hug.
