"When I close my eyes and try to sleep, I fall apart, I'm fighting hard to breathe" ~"The Only Reason"  5sos

"Cmon Willow!" Michael laughed pulling me through the woods.

"Just tell me where we're going!" I giggled.

"It's a surprise. Watch out there's a branch!" He said. I tripped over it, thanks to the blindfold Michael forced me to wear. He caught me right away before I collided with the ground and I sighed in relief.

"Thank you" I said.

"Of course, Marshmillow for life" he laughed causing me to laugh as well while he lifted me back on my feet. "Okay, we're almost here. Hold my hand so you don't fall again" he said grabbing my hand and intertwining my fingers with his.

"Will you just let me look?" I asked.

"For the five millionth time, no" he said. We continued to walk for a few more minuets until he stopped walking.

"Okay now move a little to the left... wait forward a bit more... turn to the right a bit" he said mumbling to himself as he shifted my body to the position he wanted me to face. "Okay now" he said untying the blindfold.

We were in front of a lake, in the middle of no where. It was beautiful though, the sun was setting perfectly.

"It's gorgeous" I said. "But what was the point of shifting me so much?" I laughed.

"So the colors of the sunset reflect along the water, you didn't see it?" He asked. I shook my head so he pushed me to the right a bit. Just as he did, the colors appeared as he said. They looked as if they were carelessly floating on top of the water and as each wave came, the colors gently glided along effortlessly.

"It's perfect" I said turning around to face him. We stayed like this for what felt like forever, both of us debating whether to go in for the kiss or not.

"Fuck it" he muttered as he leaned in. Before our lips connected, my body fell backwards and landed in the water.

My body drifted deeper and deeper into the water, and never came back up to the surface. I just kept sinking deeper and deeper into the lake.

All of the sudden the water disappeared and emptied, causing me to fall. I reached the bottom and harshly hit the ground.

I opened my eyes, and was in a room that was all too familiar. A four walled living hell. Carphil entered and I felt my breathing and heart beat fasten.

"We meet again" was all he had to mutter before I began to scream and cry.

"Willow, wake up" was what snapped me out of my slumber. Michael was kneeling next to me and wiped my tears away. "Nightmare?" He asked.

"Yeah" I sighed. He smiled sympathetically at me and pulled me to sleep next to him. "Try and close your eyes again" he told me.

"I can't" I said.

"Why not?" He asked.

"The only way I can sleep after a nightmare is if my mom sings to me and plays with my hair but I don't want to make you sing to me" I sighed.

"I mean I can, but I can't promise you it's going to be good" he said.

"Can you try?" I asked.

"Only because you asked me too" he said making me smile. I rested my head on his thigh and he placed his hand on my head. He slowly began to start pulling his fingers through my hair.

"What am I supposed to sing?" He asked continuing the motions through my long locks.

"Anything" I said.

"Pick a random song, when I'm put on the spot, I can't do it" he said. I laughed at the nervousness in his voice.

"Something we've listened to together" I said. I couldn't think of a song either, so I narrowed it down a bit for him. He inhaled and exhaled, and began to sing.

"Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends
Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
The webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop the pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight"

He gently brushed his hand on my head, treating me like the most fragile glass, not wanting to shatter me.

His voice was flawless. My favorite voice out of all that I've ever heard. It had the perfect amount of rasp and emotion. It was so real and raw and everything about it made me melt.

It made me want to sit up and kiss him.

So that's what I tried to do.

I lifted my head off of his thigh and sat up to look him dead in the eyes. He discontinued the tune at the sight of me and stared at me like I was the most beautiful thing in the world. The way I've always wanted to be looked at.

"Willow" he softly spoke.

"Yeah?" I replied. He looked as if he was contemplating something in his head, making me wonder what he was thinking.

"You should lay back down, who knows what time it is.." he sighed.

"Yeah" I muttered.

"I'll lay with you" he offered laying himself down.

"Okay" I said. I laid myself next to him and he pulled me close to him, as he usually did and we both closed our eyes.

"You're not going to go back to sleep, are you?" He asked.

"I don't know" I replied. He sighed and guided his hand in circles along my back, trying to relax me into sleep.

"I'm sorry" he randomly blurted.

"For what?" I asked.

"That we can't get out of here" he said. I closed my eyes and fought back the tears and he began to play with my hair again.

"Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head
I miss you I miss you" he continued.
