"When you wake up next to him in the middle of the night,"

When Vega next opened their eyes, it was midnight. Everything was dark outside and in the room, except for the glow of their TV.

They say up, rubbing their eyes and seeing that Daisy was still on the bed, now asleep. Vega sighed softly and smiled, leaning down to pet her.

"I want to stop having these nightmares.. This one about you having a new boy and sleeping happily next to him.. but it faintly looked as if it was me.. Maybe I'm just that delusional.."

"With your head in your hands, you're nothing more than his wife,"

Sitting in somewhat partially silence apart from the quiet talking from the TV, Vega petted their feline companion as they tried to calm down and process their dream.

"Everything is so fuzzy.. I hardly remember a thing.."

"I was so stupid thinking we would ever get married some day and I would call you my "husband" or whatever..."

"And when you think about me, all those years ago,"

"I hope one day you wake up and think about me.. I don't care if it's hours, days, weeks, months or years from now.. I just want you to remember and think about me.."

They stopped petting their cat and laid back down, pulling the blanket back over them and yawning softly, shutting their eyes once again as they were still awake but deep in thought.

"You're standing face to face with "I told you so","

"You always tell me that you "won't get back with me" and "I mean it this time" whenever I tell you that you already said those things last time.. you can keep saying them but what happens?.. We get back together.."

They grumbled and huffed.

"That's so ironic.. The irony is painful everytime.."

"You know I hate to say, "I told you so","

"I would never say it to your face, only internally to myself.. everytime you say that and we get back together.. "I told you so".. why did we get back together earlier this year if we were just going to be doomed to fail from the start?.."

"You know I hate to say, but, I told you so,"

"I know it's partially my fault.. but you never changed and you never listened to me.. I didn't force you to change either.. I just wanted us to both be happy and enjoy our relationship for once.."

Painful memories were flowing through their thoughts, causing tears to prick at the corners of their shut eyes, some stray tears rolling down their face.

"I told you so.."
