Ashtons POV
Tonight was going great untill something bad happened. I heard screaming so i jerked my head to the noise.

We had cleaned up and everyone started to fall asleep, Me, Calum and Luke were on the sofa and Michael and Tess on the floor. I was the only one who was awake, i couldn't get to sleep, i didn't know why but i just wasn't tired. Curiously, i looked at the two on the floor, they looked really cute together, hugging. Thats when i noticed Tess started shaking in her sleep, shifting around like she was having a nightmare. I quickly got up, carefully resting Calum's head off my shoulder and placing it on Luke's. Walking to the kitchen, i turned the heater on as Tess was shaking. I thought she was cold but she wasn't. Thats when i heard a scream.

Tessies POV
Blood everywhere. I looked down at my hands and then the limb body on the floor. The dream was coming back again, i was cursed with it. I didnt know what i was doing untill it was over, leaving me to clean up the mess i had made. I tried to wake up but i couldnt, at least not yet. It always happens, the same horrible dream i get once in a while that wont end untill i bury the body. The only problem was the person i had killed changed everytime. It hurt seeing the people i love lie beneath my feet, breathless and covered in their blood.

Last time it was Brendon so i knew it wasn't him which was a relief. I slowly bent down and turned the body, revealing a familiar face. Michael.
I let out a heavy cry and dropped to the floor, screaming. Thats when i woke up.

I screamed when i saw Michael laying beside me. I instantly thought about my nightmare, how i hurt him. Everyone woke up except from Michael so i started to cry as they looked at me worriedly. Ashton, who was already awake, ran over to me and hugged me.
He told me it was going to be okay but he didn't know the whole story.

"What happened?" They all said in unison, making me cry even more.
"I just had a nightmare, nothing to worry about" I nervously said as i wiped my tears, shaking.
"Do you get them often?" Ashton asked, still rubbing my back while he waited for an answer.
"Yeh, nearly every night but the worse thing is that its the same nightmare" I said, making me get sympathetic looks from the others. He hugged me again as i cried into his shoulder.

Thats when Michael finally woke up, looking at me confused to why i was still crying. He looked towards Ashton who was rubbing my back and shot him a glare which made him let go of me.
"Are you okay Tess, what happened?" Michael asked, making me shake my head and get up, walking over to the door.
"Where are you going?" He asked me as i slipped on my converses and grabbed my coat before replying.
"I just need to get some air" I said, opening the door as i stepped out.

Slamming the door behind me, i started to walk up the road. As it was really dark, i had no clue where i was going. I only had the street lights for me to see but it wasn't enough for me to get home. I checked my coat pockets for my phone but it wasn't there, remembering i had left it on the table. Panicking, i stopped and looked around for my street sign but i couldn't see it. I was truely lost and id only been gone for a couple of mintues. As i looked around again, I only saw a figure walking towards me.

As it came closer, i realised that it was who i expected it to be. Michael.

He ran towards me as i started to shake, the nightmare was haunting me and i hated it. I knew i would get over it soon but meanwhile, i had to suffer with the flashbacks every time i saw him. The bad thing is, i don't want to hurt him. When he finds out the real me he will judge me. They always do.

"Tessie!" He shouted, cutting me out of my thoughts as he ran closer, hugging me once he reached me.
I hugged him back and cried in his shoulder in the middle of the street, in the middle of the night. It was strange but it felt right. I loved his company and i knew why. We were alike in so many ways.
