"Austin please stay with me baby please! You're so strong , you can do it!" I was crying my heart out begging him to stay strong.

"Laura... I love you." Those were his last words. "No!! Austin! Don't go.." And he passed away.

                                ~~~

I woke up crying and panicking. I looked at Austin and thanked God that it was just a bad dream. He woke up to the sound of me crying. "Laura what's wrong?" He looked confused and panicked. "I had a horrible dream." I said as I continued crying. "About what?" he asked.

"I dreamt that you were having a severe heart problem in the middle of the night. I called for the ambulance immediately and I waited for them to come. I was by your side holding your body close to mine , crying my heart out , praying and hoping. Then you told me you love me and..." 

I could barely speak.

"...and then you passed away in my arms."

He pulled me into his arms into a very close embrace. He hugged me tightly while stroking my back.

"Baby, Everything's okay. See? I'm still here holding you in my arms. It was just a bad dream. I love you."

I kept quiet for a moment. Trying to snap out of it.

"I love you too , Austin"

We held eachother in eachother's arms for the next 5 minutes or so. I looked at the clock and it was only 5:00am.

"Great. Now I cant go back to sleep" I said as stirred around in bed. "Neither can I" said Austin.

I turned around facing him and I couldn't stop looking at him. I kept telling myself it was just a dream , but I was so scared that something would happen to him. I remember when he was at hospital. I didn't leave his side. I kept hoping the operation will go well. And it did. I'm so glad it did.

I moved closer to him and nuzzled my face into his neck. He put his hand on my hip and kissed my head.

"Ugh I can't sleep again" he said.

"I'm sorry I woke you up"

"It's okay beautiful , it's not your fault!" said Austin.

~2 hours later~

We were still cuddled up in bed talking about stuff.

"I'm gonna go make breakfast , thankyou for comforting me" I said as my lips curled up into a smile.

"You're welcome! I'll be downstairs in a bit. Gotta go shower first."

I went downstairs and switched the light on since it was still a bit dark considering it was only 7:00am. I got out a pan and started cooking some pancakes. When they were ready I started chopping some strawberries to add on top of the pancakes. I also added some whipped cream ,then I poured some freshly squeezed orange juice into 2 cups and set the table.

Austin came downstairs just in time. A beautiful smile formed on his face and said "This looks amazing , thankyou!" and hugged me till my eyeballs were about to pop out. We sat down and ate our breakfast while talking about what we're gonna do in the evening.

"I got an idea!" I said with a mouthful of strawberries. Austin laughed.

"Why don't we invite the guys over and play truth or dare? We can go have some drinks at a bar or something before playing though. Should be fun!"

"Sounds awesome!" he said.

I desperately waited for time to pass, but the more I look forward to something , the more time goes by slowly. I was sitting upside down on the couch while Austin was on the phone with Alan.
