"Rome?" I get to my feet , and stand there watching him. His signature smirk grows on his face, as he tilts his head.
"Babygirl." I smile and take off running. He opens his arms bending his knees to catch me as I jump on him, wrapping myself so tight around him. I can feel him. His arms around me. His right hand cups the back of my head as the other holds my back."Shhh. Babygirl don't cry. I'm here." I shake my head.
"No, your not. This is just a dream. Your gone." He pulls back looking me in the eyes.
"I'm here. I'll always be here my love." Holding the back of my head he brings my face to his and presses his lips to mine. I can feel him. The feeling is so amazing that a sob breaks through the kiss. I just press harder not wanting to let go. He pulls away too soon. He sits in the grass with me straddling him. "My girl, please don't cry anymore. "
"I cant help it Rome. It just hurts so much. It never stops Rome. When you died I did too." I look down at his chest, expecting to see the hole. But there's nothing there. I run my thumb over his heart where the hole was in his chest. "Every night I pray." I look back up at him, "I pray for you to hear me, to answer me. To talk to me. I pray for one more day, one more time. one more sunset and I'd be satisfied." He smiles, bringing his hand up to wipe away my tears.
"No you wouldn't. You'd just keep wishing for one more day. But I do hear it Eva. I hear you every night. I know you want the pain to stop. I know you want to end it all. But you can't. You are meant to do great things Eva. You were never meant to be mine. I was a mistake. You have your mate Eva. He's a good man. I've been watching him." His brows slightly pinch as he pushes hair behind my ear. "He loves you, maybe even more than I did. He won't push you to love him. He will wait forever, but don't make him."
"No Rome. It's not right. I love you Rome. You were supposed to be my whole world. Just because you aren't hear that doesn't mean I just move on."
"Yes it does love. I know you love me. You loved me more than anyone else ever could. We will always love each other, nothing could ever change that. But I'm not here to give you the life you deserve. I want you to have everything that I couldn't give you. Everything I wish I could've." I press my lips to his again. How I wish this was real. pulling away I hold him close.
"I'll never stop loving you Rome. You will always have a big part of my heart. I'll never be able to give it over fully to anyone else."
"You have enough love in your heart for everyone little one. I know what we had was real. It's ok to love again Eva. You will always be my little one, my babygirl. It's ok to be someone elses love now. I wont be mad. I'll never hate you." I pull back.
"Will I ever see you again?" He give me a sad smile and shakes his head.
"I'm sorry love, this was a one time deal. But I needed to see you and tell you its ok." He presses his lips to mine one last time before moving his lips next to my ear. "I've met your little boy, and he's beautiful Eva. He cant wait to meet his mama." I pull back wide eye'd. "So you see, You have to let me go. I'll be waiting for you when your time comes one day. Unfortunately that wont be for a very long time."
"I love you Rome. I love you so very much." He smiles as a tear rolls down his cheek.
"I love you babygirl. Always and forever." He presses his lips to mine and a blinding white light fills the space between and around us.
"Ava, baby." Slowly the white light dims and Rome fades with it. "Ava."I open my eyes and I'm back on the ground laying next to Romans headstone. I push myself up off the ground with my elbow to rest on my hand. I turn my head and Able is kneeling right next to me. I look up at is face and it's like I'm seeing him for the first time. His hand comes up, his thumb wiping away my tears. "what were you dreaming about?" I look past him, trying to remember.
