a lot of this chapter will be in Gerard's POV:)

Gerards POV: 

While Jules fell asleep her phone rang. God she needs to change it because it's so much more annoying than it needs to be. I'm surprised it didn't wake her up. 

I take a look at the contact and it's that strange girl Noelle. I don't see why Julie is friends with her, do they even have anything in common? Whatever. I answer the phone. 

Me: Hello? What do you want this late?

Noelle: Oh! This isn't Jules speaking..

Me: No duh, it's her boyfriend. 

Noelle: BOYFRIEND?!? I told her to stay away from you. 

Me: HA you're funny. But seriously what do you want? She's asleep. 

Noelle: I keep having dreams about her. 

Me: Andddd what kind of dreams? 

I sigh, she's so fucking annoying with that high pitched voice. 

Noelle: Where she's falling. Falling somewhere dark. But she has someone with her, and they're holding hands, and they're married. And then I have dreams about her screaming at me, and then her face...

She takes a long pause. 

Me: What about her face?..

Noelle: It turns into something demonic. Something unnatural. 

Me: They're just dreams. They can't mean anything. 

I stay silent staring at Juliette's face, fast asleep. I knew deep down it did mean something but I don't know what. Only time will tell. 

Noelle: I'm sorry I shouldn't have said anything to you. Pretend this never happened, please?

She begs. 

Me: Fine. Now let us sleep. 

I hang up and just lay there. I wonder about what this all means for me. For us. I decide to stay up a bit longer and go out on here balcony for a smoke. As I'm sitting there a crow lands itself onto the railing. It starts cawing unnecessarily loud, I shoo it away. "Stupid ass bird." I say rolling my eyes. 

As I'm sitting there I run my fingers through my black long hair to get it out of my face. Suddenly down below, under the streetlight I see a figure. I look to see who it could be this late, homeless person? I take a closer look and I can't seem to make out any features. 

Suddenly it clicks. 

I rub my eyes at an attempt to get it to go away and thankfully it disappeared. I let out a sigh of relief and head back inside to pass the fuck out.

Juliettes POV:

I wake up in bed embraced by Gerard's arms. I wake up him by kissing him all over his face. I get up to make me and him a coffee. When I'm making his coffee I feel a weird sense of happiness wave over me, I felt genuinely happy once in my life. At peace. 

Gerard's sitting on the balcony and I join him. 

"I'm probably gonna chill at home today. I wanna have time to read those books." He leans over to kiss me with his coffee and cigarette breath. "That's fine sugar. I'm busy today anyway." I just nod and enjoy the cold weather. 

Gerard leaves and I immediately get out my books, "Let's get started, baby." 

Gerard's POV:

I head home and run to my room not even acknowledging the others mere existence. I just take a moment to sit and think. I know what.
