13:28:
Ashton?

13:28:
Yes Amelia?

13:28:
How come you respond to my messages? And not think of the fact that this was an accident.

13:28:
I'm big on coincidence.

13:28:
So we are destined to be together?

13:28:
Yep.

13:28:
Okay.

13:28:
Can you manage that?

13:28:
If I get to know you then yes, I think I can.

13:29:
Very different from our first messages.

13:29
Well, Low point.

13:29
Are we ever going to talk about those things?

13:29
When I can't sleep, yes.

13:29
Do you sleep?

13:30:
About 3 hours, if I'm lucky.

13:30:
Shit.
3 hours??

13:30:
Yep.
3 hours.
It hurts, but it feels numb at the same time. It's not something I often talk about.

13:30:
I don't mean to intrude just, that's

13:30:
Barely enough?
Tell me about it.
Naps are my saviour in a blanket

13:31:
Does it have anything to do with stress?

13:31:
I actually don't know.
It's been happening for just over a year now.

13:31:
Have you ever been to anyone about it?

13:32:
No.
I don't intend to either.

13:32:
Okay sorry. I don't mean to be invasive.
Next time it happens, send me a message. I'll share a story, write you a poem, send you a song, anything.

13:32:
You don't have to Ashton, you need sleep too.

13:32:
Not as badly as you do.
Promise?

13:32:
Do I have much of a choice?
I could always lie, you'll never know.
After all, we're just strangers.

13:33:
Can't you ever allow me to be more than a stranger?

13:33:
Fine.
Stranger called Ashton.
