6:07 AM~MassachusetesMadison: Alex I can't sleep.
Alex: well being on your phone doesn't help. It actually keeps you up.
Madison: wait, why are you awake right now?? I usually have to text you 5 times to get you to respond at this time.
Madison: are you okay?
Alex: yes babe, I'm fine. I'm just studying. I have a bunch of tests coming up.
Madison: oh, okay. I'll let you study then.
Alex: noooo I want to talk to you. :( I don't want to study.
Madison: but you have to study.
Alex: you're more important to me than studying.
Madison: Alex...
Alex: what it's true. You're my everything.
Madison: stop. You're making me cry. I'm too tired for you to be saying stuff like that.
Alex: you should really get some sleep Mads. It's been a few days since you've gotten a full nights sleep. It's not good for you.
Alex: I don't want you getting sick baby...
Madison: I'll be fine and I am fine
Alex: you've texted me almost every night saying that you can't sleep. I'm worried about your well being Madison.
Madison: Alex, don't worry about it.
Alex: I'm going to worry about it Mads.
Madison: well there's no need to worry.
Alex: if you text me saying you can't sleep every night since I left, there's something wrong Mads...
Madison: there's nothing wrong... I don't get why you're making a huge fuss out of this.
Alex: Because I care about you, and I don't want you to get hurt. That's why I'm making a huge fuss about it.
Alex: please just try and get more sleep... Don't text me after trying to sleep for 30 minutes. Put some effort into it.
Madison: fine. I'll try harder to sleep.
Alex: you promise?
Madison: I promise.
Alex: and this promise starts now. Go to sleep baby.
Madison: okay.
Alex: I love you. Sleep well. I hope you dream of me tonight.
Madison: you're all I ever dream of lately.
Alex: goodnight Madison.
Madison: goodnight Alex. I love you.
Alex: and I love you.

a/n: yay! Back to the cute stuff! I love it.
Even though the book did not reach 300 reads, I still wanted to update for you guys. :)
Alex is too cute.
And poor Madison. She's having such a hard time sleeping without Alex.
Song to the right/up top is "Lullaby" by Front Step Porch.
I feel like this song fits perfectl with this. And that this is what Alex would do to help Madison sleep.
Happy Easter you guys! (I know it's not Easter yet, but I won't be updating until after Easter.)
