Love only exists in my dreams .. don't wake me up.

I just want a better life, no drama, no issues. My mind is spinning, my depression is hitting harder than usual. I thought I was okay but clearly I'm not. Reese constantly hurts my feelings whoever he gets upset with something he don't like, he constantly belittle me to the point I don't feel human. I love him , I want to be with him forever and I want to tell him how I feel but it's like he doesn't care.

"You okay?" I was knocked outta my thoughts as I was staring into the book, I looked up seeing Joe on the side of me with his lab coat on I gave him a fake smile

"Yeah I'm fine , you almost done ?" I asked referring to the project we was doing together he came closer putting his notepad on my book

"I calculated everything basically , all we have to do is write a summary on the body and we good" I nodded my head and moved his note book from mines, I believe he noticed how distanced I was from him , I wasn't talking like that and not really paying attention. My thoughts was still stuck on what Reese said to me his voice played over and over in my head with my yelling my brain was on fire at this point.

"You sure you're okay ? You know you can talk to me if you'll like to" he said , Joe is sweet everyday we work together he's always asking about my well being which i appreciate mostly. I haven't talked to Reese since that night and usually I'll call my sister but I'm still pissed at her, I would talk to nene but she's Reese sister and I'm not comfortable talking about our problems. But me burying this inside of me is killing me deeply

"I'm fine , just thoughts that's all" I told him and went back to my book.

"You know I've been watching you" he bluntly said I chuckled

"That's not creepy at all" I joked he laughed and licked his lips

"Nah not like that.. I mean to say I see you. I see how focus you are and ambitious, I see you're flaws and the stress you carry on your shoulders" he spoked " you're a strong woman Taylor" I looked at him as butterflies filled my stomach weirdly. It felt awkward to be hearing this from another man that's not reese.

"T-thank you.. I try my best to be strong-"

"Being strong doesn't mean you have to fight through struggles on your own Taylor , you have friends and people that loves you that can be your shoulder"

"I doubt that" I said lowly , he randomly touched my hand I looked down at it. This is so wrong

"Well atleast you have me to count on" he said we slowly locked eyes with one another damn near reading each others minds, Joe company makes me feel good, makes me feel like I'm not alone in any other way I heard the door opened scaring me to move my hand from joes quickly, looking up to see who it was and of course it was reese with flowers in his hand. My heart started to race why is he here? I asked myself.
