I couldn't sleep again tonight.
I flipped on the tv for like 5 minutes before I grew bored.
I grabbed my blanket and shuffled downstairs,the moon shining down like streetlights that illuminated the night life.
I sat across from you and smiled when you looked my way.
Can't sleep?
Your perfect writing made me smile,shaking my head I shrugged when you frowned.
"I sometimes can't sleep.It's normal for me."
You frowned more at this,I didn't like the look on you.
I wanted it gone forever.
"What about you? Do you sleep easily?"
Your eyes went down to your board,I watched in utter fascination as you scribbled away with your silver pen.
I made a mental note to buy you more silver ones,they seemed to be your favorite.
You looked back up and turned your board to me.
I don't like to sleep.
I frowned at this,only now realizing that you never seemed to sleep even when it was very late.
I couldn't see fully cause of your hoodie but your eyes seemed so dark,dark and heavy from your lack of sleep.
"Why not?Do you have nightmares?"
The thought you had nightmares made my heart hurt,the idea that you had things terrifying you in your sleep made me feel sick to my stomach.
I wanted to take your nightmares away,wanted them to be mine so you'd never have to have another one again.
You shook your head,your hand going back to scribbling away as you wrote whatever you were thinking.
No,I don't.
This confused me a little.
"Why don't you like to sleep then?"
You frowned then,and scribbled again.
Cause then I have to wake up.
You shrugged like it was nothing,but those words haunted my head all night and my stomach felt like it weighed a ton.
