The Before and After Project (An Emblem3 Fanfiction)

Chapter 21

 Gabby’s POV:

The only reason I had gotten any sleep at all last night was because Wes had sung me to sleep. Just the sound of his soothing voice was enough to calm me completely and banish any of my thoughts about Drew.

Unfortunately the same didn’t happen with my dreams, all that happened was a constant replay of what I saw with Drew and Chantelle all until the end where suddenly Wes and Kaylee appeared.

“Get the fuck away from him!!!” I screamed as she shoved her tongue down his throat. He smiled into the kiss and his hands roamed her body wanting more. I was pulled out of the dream by Wes wiping a tear from my eye. I jumped slightly at his touch but sighed in relief that I was now back into reality.

“Babe, please tell me what’s bothering you! Last night you were so distant…and I just…I want to be there for you, I want to help you with whatever it is…I just want to take care of you. But I can’t do any of that if you don’t tell me what’s wrong” he pleaded, brushing another tear from my eye as it quickly escaped. I had no clue why I was still crying, it was all just a dream and I could move on right?

“I just…I had this dream where you were cheating on me with Kaylee, but…” I sighed unsure of whether I should tell him the full story or not, the hidden meaning behind the dream was slowly starting to sink in and it scared the crap out of me.

“But?” he pressed, intertwining his fingers through mine and squeezing my hand reassuringly.

“But…before that happened I had seen Drew and Chantelle making out…and it was like as soon as you found out I was jealous the only thing you could do was try and get revenge on me…” I trailed off, this sounded stupid as it came out of my mouth. He would have no clue why I was so upset by it.

“I don’t…I don’t get how this relates to how you were acting last night…”

“Because I legitimately did see Drew and Chantelle kissing yesterday, the fountain wasn’t broken…I didn’t even get that far.” I admitted and looked up at him sheepishly. He was frowning ever so slightly.

“That dude moves fast…” he muttered. “What do you think the dream means then?” he asked, his voice sounding gentle and soothing but I could tell all he wanted to know was how I felt about their kiss.

“That I’m afraid you won’t stick by me while I try to get over Drew?” I offered, shrugging ever so slightly trying to pretend as if it wasn’t a big deal. His eyes clouded over at the mention that I wasn’t over Drew and my heart immediately sunk. I was hurting him yet again.

“I wouldn’t ever leave you…” he growled, his voice meaning to sound reassuring but only ended up sounding angry.

“Is that a promise?” I teased and smiled as his eyes became gentle and loving again.

“I promise you Gabby that I will never leave you” he whispered and was about to tug my lips towards his before I stopped him abruptly.

“Sorry what was that? I didn’t hear you…” I teased with a challenging tone to my voice. A smirk immediately crossed his lips.

“GABBY I PROMISE THAT I WILL NEV—“ he shouted before I cut him off by shoving my hand onto his lips.

“SHUT UP!!!” I hissed, giggling like an idiot. My hand was still covering his mouth and Wes noticed this, taking the opportunity to kiss my hand. He even took it a step further and started biting and sucking on it before I shrieked and pulled it away. “Have I turned you into a vampire or something?!” I shrieked.

“Your lips are too far away…” he whined and pouted at me.

“So you’re going to eat my lips then?” I teased, pushing him away further.
