Cheryl and Tre: Goodbye Means Hello

Part 42

Nicola and Sarah ended up staying around until quite late in the night, before leaving around eleven – just after Tre and Garry had come in, and of course after Nicola and Sarah had attacked Tre in cuddles and told him how great it was to see him again even though they'd already known he and Cheryl were together. Cheryl even stayed up for a bit and chatted with Garry and Tre, it seeming that the two boys had, had a nice night out with the other lads. They finally all turned in just after midnight, knowing that Cheryl had to be up early the next day as she had studio.

Of course, another restless night came into play for Cheryl. Around four in the morning, Tre found himself shaking her awake yet again as she was getting worked up in her sleep, and was tossing and turning. It had once again ended with Cheryl screaming out of her sleep, only for her to then look at Tre in shock yet again that she'd had another nightmare. Tre simply pulled her into his arms, allowing her to sob against his shoulder whilst he tried to calm her down. He just wished he could stop the nightmares from invading her mind; she didn't deserved to be being tormented like this.

When the alarm began going off around seven, Tre reached over straight away to silence it before soothingly stroking Cheryl's arm. Since her nightmare, he had once again began waking up it seeming like every half an hour or so, just to check on her and make sure she was alright. He wanted her to talk to him and tell him what was going on – this was horrible and he felt like he needed to get into her head.

"Baby." He whispered. Cheryl simply breathed out before turning onto her back, opening her eyes and looking up at him.

"I don't want to talk about it." She simply spoke, shaking her head. Before Tre could ask her anything else, she swung her legs out of bed and got up. Tre breathed out, shaking his head as he ran his hands up and down her face...

He had to know what was going on with her...

Despite initially wanting to go with Cheryl to make sure she was okay, Tre eventually gave in and decided to stay in after Cheryl had convinced him that she'd be perfectly fine and would just lost herself in music. After she had gotten ready and had some breakfast, and of course after she'd kissed Tre goodbye, she and Garry headed off out to the studio – much to the disappointment of Garry, who was still slightly tired from being out for the night before and would have preferred to stay in. Still, he did love hearing his sister's new songs and was glad to be going with her, so maybe it wasn't all bad. Instead of having Lee come out and take them to the studio then wait around until she finished, Cheryl decided to just drive her own car so she could leave when she pleased. Plus, Lily was meeting them there, so that she could leave when she wanted to as well.

"Well, there is her ladyship!" Lily burst out straight away as Cheryl entered the studio with Garry, making the two producers, Wayne and Scott, look up and chuckle. Cheryl gave them a small smile before yawning, making the two guys scrunch their noses up at how she cute she looked.

"You alright, dolly dimples? You don't look like you're feeling well today." Wayne questioned, giving her a hug. Cheryl nodded, returning the hug before hugging Scott as well.

"I'm fine guys," she gave them a proper smile before continuing, "There's a couple songs I know we can do today, well maybe three we can do today, I'm not sure – but this one song I still have to get the go ahead on from the person I want to duet with, so yeah."

"No problem, sweets; let's get cooking then!" Scott said, nudging her. Cheryl giggled and sat down with them at the desk, leaving Garry to sit down over on the sofa with Lily. Lily too had noticed how Cheryl looked a bit down today, leading her to immediately turn to Garry as she wondered what was going on.
