I woke up with cold sweat that made my clothes cling to my body. I was devastated by that single nightmare. I was strong but not strong enough to see Jacob in someone else's arms. I needed assurance. I needed to know that Jacob would never leave me, no matter what. I looked at the time on my new phone, it was almost 4:30.

I picked up the only decent jeans I owned and paired it with a transparent baby pink T-shirt. I didn't pay attention to the shoes that I wore, it wasn't important as of now. I rushed out of my house, straight to Jacobs's.

"what are you doing here?" Jacob asked surprised. But before I could reply he pulled me in his arms and started kissing me. But that was not what I needed right now. I needed to talk, I needed to make sure that he wanted me emotionally and not just physically. He me pulled in his bedroom and closed the door behind him. Seeing where this was going I pushed Jacob a bit and let out a sigh. I sat at the edge of the bed and looked up at him.

"That's not why I came here", I said in a slightly hurt tone.

"what's wrong?" Jacob wondered out loud.

"I need something."

Jacob looked at me with confusion. Then he nodded his head in agreement."whatever you need, I'll make sure that you have it."

I took a deep breath. Did I really want this? Was I really that desperate? But damn each time I sure couldn't handle those nightmares. Each time Stacey said something about Jacob, I lost my cool. Each time I wondered about us, I couldn't see a future. I had to do this.

"Promise me that no matter what happens, even if the world turns up side down, you won't leave me. Not now, not ever."

"I won't leave you."Jacob promised and moved closer to me. He held me till I was normal again. Not a word passed between us. He just kept on looking at me with such intensity that I knew that we both needed it right now. I felt it. I couldn't handle it anymore so I launched myself on him. As our lips crashed and our bodies met my heartbeat increased. I was afraid that he could hear it. But Jacob broke the kiss.

"I love you." he whispered against my lips.
