      3 days went by and neither of us contacted each other even once. It was tough, at least for me, because ever since the day of their heated argument, I've been going through a tug-of-war game in my own mind.

You over reacted
No you didn't
Yes you did
No he was being childish
You could've simply said no
He had to be told how foolish he was being

     Thoughts were going through my mind all the time. I couldn't decide whether to apologize or wait for his apology.

     Until today morning~

       "I'm right here. I'm by your side Eileen. Don't worry"  "please don't go outside Grayson. They're outside" "I won't" *BAM* the door fell from it's hinges and they stood outside with guns in their hands. Oh my god Grayson. He stood up stiffly "we haven't done anything. Leave us and we won't tell anyone anything." "How can we be sure of that? How do we know you're not lying" "I'm not" "josh kill them both." "NO leave her please leave her" "Grayson n—" *BOOM BOOM BOOM*  "leave the girlI quickly went over to him. "Grayson no please stay with me GRAYSON!" His heartbeat stopped. "GRAYSON NOOOOOOO–"

"NO!"

     I woke up in tears. But after waking up I was crying even more. I couldn't stop the tears that kept rolling down my cheeks. I got out of my bed, hand on my mouth so no one could hear me sobbing. The first thing I could think of was grabbing my phone. I went into my bathroom and locked the door in stupid attempts of silencing my sobs. I put one hand on the counter to balance myself and dialed Grayson's contact as quickly as I could. It was hard, my hands were shaking and vision was still blurry with the tears.
     "Uh hello?" I swallowed hard and tried to stable my voice.
    "Eileen are you ok?"

     "Ye-yes I'm ok gr-grayson p-please tell me you're o-okay" I spoke between sobs. I wasn't sure if he heard me properly with all the stuttering. "I'm fine I'm okay-"

      "oh thank god" with that the rivers started again. I couldn't stop it. The dream felt so real. So painfully real.

    "Eileen what happened please tell me" his concerned voice was making me cry even more for some God forsaken reason.  "I-I had a d-dream we were-we were in this attic an-and there were th-ieves outside the d-door broke and then they suddenly came in and-and oh god they-they shot you and I-uh— Grayson please tell me your ok" speaking about it seemed like the hardest.
     "Hey princess I'm fine. It was just a dream ok? It's just a dream. Now c'mon go back to sleep. It's only 4am right now."

    "I don't want to"

   "it's ok princess it won't be back? It was just a dream that won't come back. I'm right with you. I'm not going anywhere." Grayson's voice was soft and soothing. I went back into bed and pulled the covers over me. Grayson was soothingly speaking the whole time "you're ok.. you're ok.."

"You're ok.. You're ok.. " I was now humming with him. Slowly I went back to sleep to his soft voice. A deep, dreamless sleep.

    
    When I woke up, the memories of the dream were still vivid in my mind but I didn't feel scared anymore. I found my phone near my ear and realised that none of us had ended the call. I grabbed my phone and put it near my ear. I could hear Grayson's soft snores through the call. A smile crept up to my face and I ended the call.

     When I had washed my face and dressed into some nice clothes, Grayson called again.
    "Hey princess" his voice was still husky.
     "hey Grayson"
    "Are you ok now?"
    "Yeah I'm fine. Thank you" my voice was soft and reassuring.

    "I um I wanna apologize for the way I acted that day. You were clearly right. The plan was stupid" my eyes widened at his random apology. 
    "No no I should be the one apologizing. I was over reacting"
    "So truce?"
  
      "Truce"
