Ashlyn's pov

"Run!" I yell at Aiden behind me. Someone has been chasing us for what feels like forever. All of a sudden I hear a bang and a thud. I look behind me and see Aiden lying on the ground, a gunshot in his head.
'No! No! This can't be happening' Tears pouring down my face. I try to help him up, carry him to safety, do anything but I can't. I'm paralyzed. I just sit there and stare at his lifeless body like an idiot, watching him bleed out. Everything starts to fade to darkness.

"Ashlyn?"
"Ashlyn wake up"

I slowly open my eyes and see someone leaning over me. Wait Aiden?
"Aiden!" I instantly sit up and pull him into a hug. "I thought you died!" "No I'm right here, I'm okay, it was just a nightmare" He responds wiping my face. I'm crying. I look around and I'm on the floor of my living room. Everyone else asleep to the right of me. I start to realize everything really is okay and slowly stop crying.
"Thanks" I'm genuinely thankful for him and his comfort in the moment. Not that I would ever admit to him that I like his comfort.

I looked over at the clock on the wall. 2am. It can't hurt to stay here a little longer. I rest my head on Aiden's shoulder and let him comfort me. "I'm glad it was just a dream" I say in a whisper. "I'm glad you're okay" he whispers back. Soon my eyes grow heavy again and I fall asleep with my head on his shoulder.
