ace's pov:

"hey babe, how are you? I miss you and Jaxon so much; not a day goes by where I don't think about you. I can't wait to come home and be in your arms with little Jaxon. I hate myself for not being able to be there for Jaxon for four long years, but I love and always will love him. I promise I'll come back soon." sofia said.

"baby, ever since you left, nobody but Jaxon has been able to fill the emptiness in me. I miss you so much and I js can't stop thinking of you." I mumbled back, with tears in my eyes.

sofia smiled and kissed me on the lips. it felt like heaven. I had longed to have her touch on me for so long.

"I have to go now baby. I love you." sofia whispered in my ear.

I shot up from my bed.

somehow, that dream had felt so real. and I had this extremely odd feeling that sofia was still here.

and alive.

no ace, snap out of it. you watched her die in you're hands four years ago, and she's not coming back anymore. just give up.

but if there was one thing I was good at, it was that I would never, ever give up on someone I loved.

but she's dead.

I sighed. I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep after this. I got up and dragged my feet down to the kitchen.

I poured myself a glass of water and sat down on the leather couch. I looked over at the coffee table. on it sat a photo stand, which held a photo of sofia and I.

we looked so happy together. we were smiling together at the beach, and just looking at it made me feel so immersed in the moment four years ago as though it just happened yesterday.

but obviously I was just simply looking at the photo for too long, because when I looked out of the window, the sun had already risen.

I hastily placed the photo back the coffee table and walked back up the marble stairs to go to my room and get ready for a new day.

in the bathroom, I took a hot shower. the hot water on my tanned skin was exactly what I needed. I pictured sofia being in the shower with me. I couldn't help but grin at the happy times we had in the shower.

when I came out, I put on the shirt that sofia had loved so much and always stole from me and paired it up with dark navy blue boxers.

everything I did seemed to revolve around sofia. whether I was sleeping or showering, everything was just about sofia.

at least I still had Jaxon. and this time, I wasn't going to let anyone take him away from me like they did with-

no, this isn't healthy. thinking about her will only make you feel sad and guilty. snap out of it
