~~2 Weeks Later~~
I woke up screaming and sweating at 3 this morning. I had a nightmare about my mom. Even though I don't remember her, I've been told stories about her. And I've had a strong feeling that she killed herself ever since I was nine. Now I'm dreaming about it.
I feel like Hunter knew I was awake cause he texted me two minutes after I woke up. Then my phone rang. God does this kid have like a video camera in my head?
"Hey. I miss you," he sounded tired.
"I miss you too. Why are you awake?"
"I couldn't sleep. Why are you up?" he asked me.
"I had another nightmare about my mom," I whispered.
"Do you want me to come over?" He asked.
"No Hunter you need sleep. I'll be fine," I told him.
"I'm already in my car. See you in a few. Byeee," he laughed then hung up.
To be completely honest, I didn't think I would be fine, and I did want him to come over. I needed him right now. I feel like my body is never going to stop shaking.
"Oh Elllllaaaaa," he sang as he walked through my apartment door.
"How did you get in here?" I laughed.
"There's a key in the plant outside," he said.
"You're a stalker but you're holding ice cream so it's okay," I ran up to him and hugged him, then grabbed the ice cream out of his hand and walked to the kitchen.
"Are you okay?" He asked me from the living room.
"Yeah I just wanna cuddle," I said shyly.
"I can help with that."
"Wait no let me eat my ice cream first," I smiled.
"Fiiiineee," he sighed dramatically.
"Okay I'm finished," I walked over to him.
"You ate like three bites," he smiled.
"You're more important," I sat next to him on the couch and laid my head down on his chest.
"Can you sing to me?" I asked him.
"What do you want me to sing?"
"Anything," I whispered in his chest.
If I could be the reason your hair's a mess,
The bass drum beatin way down deep in your chest,
If I could be the voice on your radio,
Then I could be your long ride home.
He sang so softly and I felt like I could listen to his voice all day.
If mine could be the name that changes yours,
The wine in your glass,
The swing on your porch,
The dollar in your pocket,
And the peaceful in your sleep,
Then I'd be what you mean to me.
I found myself falling asleep to his voice. There was no other place I would rather be than in his arms. I felt so safe. He made me feel safe. I was completely okay with a guy making me feel safe, something I had never thought I would be okay with. I was in love with this feeling and didn't ever want it to go away.

I woke up in my bed, with a note by my pillow.
"I went to get coffee. I'll be back soon, beautiful. -Hunter" the note read.
Just as I finished reading it, the door opened.
"Hey you're awake," he said.
"Hi," I whispered.
He walked over to me and kissed my forehead.
"I brought coffee," He whispered.
"I see that," I smiled at him.
"Hunter I wanna talk to you," I said.
"Okay go ahead," he sat next to me.
"Hunter you're my first boyfriend like ever. I know. It's unusual and I'm kind of embarrassed," I laughed.
"But I just want you to know that I've never felt so safe before. I don't feel like I'm the same person. I always felt so worthless and pitiful. I told myself I was a mistake and I really shouldn't be alive. But now that I'm with you, I don't feel like that anymore. I feel like God put us together and now my life is finally falling into place. And I love that," I told him, being completely honest with him.
"It's like a puzzle," he grabbed my hand.
"What?" I asked, confused.
"God gives you all the pieces, and you just have to put them together. We're just two puzzle pieces waiting to be put together."
