Briar's pov
I wake up at three o'clock in the morning and hear a tapping on my window. I shake Myles awake.
"Myles wake up!" I whisper.
"What time is it?" He asks, still half asleep.
"Three o'clock." I whisper.
"Then why did you wake me up?" He asks, slightly annoyed.
I point to the window and he soon hears the tapping noise. We both just sit there in shock, not knowing what to do.
Then I hear my name being whispered. My heart stops and I start shaking. Myles pulls me closer to him and he strokes my hair.
"Shhhh it's ok." He says and tears start to drip down my face.
I can still hear my name being called. Myles pulls my face into his chest and I cry there.
"I'm going to see what it is. Lock yourself in the ensuite." He says and I do.

Myles' pov
I open the blinds slowly and I can't see a thing. It's pitch black. I'm bout to get Briar back but then I see a figure of a person running out of our garden and they are wearing a white cloak. I shut the blinds and go and bet Briar.
"Briar?" I say and knock on the door.
She opens it and flings herself onto me. I put her back into bed and I got in with her. I pull her tightly towards me and she rests her head on my chest.
"What did you see?" She asks.
"There was someone running out of our garden wearing a white cloak. That's it." I reply.
"What if the person gets me?" She asks.
"They won't." I say.
"What if they do?" She replies and I can see that she is crying.
"If I'm with you, they'll never get you." I say and wipe her tears away.
Then we go back to sleep.

The next morning
I just woke up and Briar is still asleep. I have to keep her close to me no matter what happens. Anyway it's 25 days until we get married after today! I can't wait.
Suddenly her eyes open.
"Morning beautiful." I say and she smiles at me.
I hug her tightly.
"Mylo my head hurts." She says.
"Do you want me to get you some ice?" I ask.
"Yes please." She says and closes her eyes.
I jump out of bed and run downstairs to get her an ice pack.
When I get back to her, I gently place the ice pack on her head.
"Better?" I ask.
"Better. I think that it was when I fell yesterday." She says.
"You'll be ok." I say and kiss her cheek.
"I love you Myles Erlick." She says.
"I love you too Briar Nolet." I say back.
I gently place her head on my chest and she falls asleep again. I don't know what we'll do today, I mean I don't want to go out and I don't think that she does either. We should do something indoors. We could have an indoor picnic. Yes that's what we'll do!
"Bri?" I ask gently.
"Yes?" She says.
"Do you want to have an indoor picnic today?" I ask and stroke her hair.
"Ok." She says
"I'm going to have a shower." She says and gets up.
Then she falls back down.
"Are you ok?" I ask and hold her tightly.
"Yeah, I just think that I stood up too quickly." She says.
"I'll help you up." I say and walk her to the bathroom.
"I can take it from here." She says and locks the door.
Then I head downstairs to start making the picnic. I set out a blanket on the floor with a rose in the middle and then make the food. I make sure that I have all of Briar's favourite foods and I do. Then I set it all out and she walks downstairs.
"You look gorgeous." I say.
"You look handsome yourself." She says and I kiss her.
"Take a seat." I say and she sits on the carpet.
"Mylo you made all my favourite foods!" She says and hugs me.
"Yep." I say with a smirk.
"Thank you." She says and smiles at me.
"Your smile makes my day." I say and she blushes.
"Let's eat!" She says and we do.
An hour later
Briar's pov
"I feel a bit sick Mylo." I say.
"Me too. Maybe I made too much food." Myles says.
"I think that your right." I say and force myself up.
"I'm going to go back to bed and rest." I say.
"Ok, I'm going to watch TV for a while so come downstairs when you want to." He says.
"Ok. Also Myles?" I ask.
"Yeah?" He asks back.
"I loved the picnic." I say and smile.
He smiles back and I walk upstairs.
Suddenly I feel really sick and run to the bathroom and throw up. It kind of burnt my throat.

Myles' pov
I'm just watching TV when I hear Briar being sick. I run upstairs and see her in the bathroom throwing up and she's shaking.
"Briar is this my fault?" I ask and hug her.
She doesn't reply because she's too busy throwing up. I don't think that she should have eaten so much.
"No." She says.
"It is my fault. I made too much food." I say.
"I've been feeling ill lately anyway." She says.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I ask.
"Becau-" She throws up again.
"Because I didn't want you to worry about me." She said.
"Oh Bri." I say and hug her.
She starts sobbing.
"I'm going to puts you into bed." I say and carry her off to bed.
I climb into bed with her and cuddle her.
"Do you want a glass of water?" I ask.
She nods her head and I go and make her one.

Briar's pov
I think that I'm going to go to the doctors' tomorrow to see why I'm ill.
When Myles comes back, I have a sip of water and he gets back into bed with me. He hugs me but I can barely breath.
"Mylo your grip is a bit tight." I say.
"Sorry." He says and lets go of me a bit more.
"Thanks." I say and fall asleep in his arms.
