C'mon Baby Cry

Hunter's POV

I felt something bump against my shoulder, I looked over. Billie? 

"koh-shu" Billie snored softly. Careful not to wake her, I slowly picked her up, bridal style. Mo and Sam glanced over at me. Mo chuckled while Sam gave me a death glare that read 'If you hurt her you will meet your end ' I didn't want to meet my end. I would never hurt her anyway. Not like they did.

We reached our room, painted a deep purple-blue with yellow and green highlights. I set her down on her pink bed, I don't really care for pink, but it's fine. Then laid down on my dark blue one.

I almost fell asleep, but out of the corner of my eye I saw Billie's breathing quicken. I jumped out of bed and knelt next to her. I felt her pulse increase. "Billie?" I whispered. She bolted up, eyes brimming with tears. She let out a sob, then looked over at me.

"S-sorry..."

"Oh, Billie..." I said in a soft voice. "You have nothing to be sorry for. Come're." I got up and sat on her bed and she locked me in a tight embrace. I felt my face get very hot very fast. I was glad it was dark.

Billie sniffled. She looked so cute, but still I wanted to make her feel better, so I started singing...

I can see the sadness in your eyes
You've been tryna hide what you left behind
They say it's darkest before the dawn
But you've been smiling for so long
A thousand teardrops can't be wrong, no

I don't want you to be afraid
Let me see you cry
Oh I, I got an hour or so
Take my hand and let it go
Call me up anytime
C'mon, baby, cry

I can tell you're a sad boy just like me
Baby, don't deny what your poor heart needs
Been so long since he called your name
On the run from a losing game
Just bat your eyes, baby, let me feel the pain

I don't want you to be afraid
Let me see you cry
Oh I, I got an hour or so
Take my hand and let it go
Call me up anytime
C'mon, baby, cry

Three words everybody knows
Must be nice where lovers go
Take my hand, don't let it go
Just cry

I don't want you to be afraid
Let me see you cry
Oh I, I got an hour or so
Take my hand, darlin', let it go
Call me up anytime
C'mon, baby

I don't want you to be afraid
Let me see you cry
Oh I, I got an hour or so
Take my hand and let it go
You can call me up anytime

C'mon, baby, cryC'mon, baby, cry
C'mon, baby

As I finished the song I could hear Billie snoring (I have confirmed this is cannon) A simple tugged at my lips. "Heh. I guess she liked the song..." My eyelids dropped and I slipped into a dream-filled slumber. Unfortunately for me... 

These were not good dreams

Yay! Longest chapter I've ever written! It took soooo long. (Insert Mo groaning) 505 words! Yay! Anyway.... what does Hunter dream about? Will we ever find out?
