Feel Again (A OneRepublic/ Ryan Tedder Fanfic)

Chapter 19

Kim's P.O.V

Tonight was just amazing. Ryan's just a normal date. Nothing went wrong, and Ryan didn't cancel on me. I wanted to kiss him on the lips but decided to kiss him on the cheek. "Goodnight Ryan." I said and walked into the guest room.

I don't want to sleep in my dance clothes to bed so I decide to look around the room to look for some clothes. Sure enough, I found boxer shorts and tank top. I threw them on, got into bed and drifted off to sleep.

Suddenly I wake up to Ryan's voice. He sounds like he's in agony. Quickly, I get out of bed and sprint down to his room. "Ryan?" I said in concern.

"Copeland No!" He utters out. I start to shake him awake. "Ryan! Ryan! Wake up! You're having a nightmare!" I shout at him and he wakes up violently. His eyes went from green to gray. Oh my god whatever nightmare he's had must be really bad.

He grabs me and kisses me hard. He pulls away from me. "Ryan are you alright?" I asked cautiously.

He shakes his head. "No, I had that damn dream again."

"What dream? Ryan tell me." I said holding him in my arms.

I wait for him to calm down. "I had a dream about my ex-wife taking my son away from me." He said burying his head in his hands.

"Oh honey." I said wrapping my arms around him. I didn't know what to say to him. I just can't imagine being in Ryan's position. But seeing his eyes swell up, tears rolling down his cheeks, my vision starts to get blurry.

I bury my face on his back, and he looks up and turns to me. "Kimberly, why are you crying?" He asked.

I look up at him and wipe the tears from my eyes. "Because I don't know what to say to make you feel better." I said trying to calm myself down. He pulls me close to him and kisses my hair. There's was a long moment of silence and we stayed embracing each other for a while.

"Will you sleep in my bed with me?" He whispered in my ear breaking away the silence. I look up at him and nod. The two of us get into bed and Ryan pulls me closer to him, kisses my hair, and we fell asleep.

The sunlight hits my eyes and I wake up. That's the first time I slept well in months. I turn over and feel the other side of the bed empty.

"Ryan?" I said groggily. I get up from the bed. I walk out into the hallway and I hear a faint sound. I walk downstairs and the faint noise turns to a loud base drum. I turn the corner and see a door cracked open a little bit.

I opened it and notice the flight of stairs and I slowly tip toe down the stairs making sure I don't make a sound. I recognize the sound immediately. It's that song by Imagine Dragons. What was the name of it? Oh yeah "Radioactive".

I continue to tip toe down the stairs and I see Ryan, wearing boxing gloves punching and kicking a punching bag. The way he's hitting the punching bag was as if he would hit it according to the beat.

"Hey!" I shouted over the loud music. He stopped punching and turned off the music then turned to me. "Hey yourself." He answered walking towards me. He pulls me close to him and gently presses his lips against mine.
