CHAPTER 4

ZAYN'S POV

I wake up to Chey tossing and turning in her sleep. I know what's coming next. It hasn't happened in at least a week. Chey sits right up with me sweating and softly whimpering with her head in her hands. I move my hand to wrap around her waist but she flinches, obviously not knowing that I was awake yet. She looks up to me with sad red eyes and sighs.

"Did I wake you?" She says softly.

I gently nod.

"I would rather be awake and here for you than be sleeping not knowing the nightmares are back."

She smiles and pushes my torso back and lays her head on my chest. I look over to the clock to see that it's 4:23 AM.

I sigh and start gently wiping Cheys tears moving down her cheeks. I wrap one arm around her waist and with the other I rub just above her ear soothingly. Telling her by movements that I'm here and that it's gonna be ok.

She sits straight up and turns to me.

"We need to go see them right now" she looks at me thinking I know what she's talking about.

"Wait what? Chey it's 4:30 am and who and where?" She looks at my face confused.

"That's why I keep having the nightmares, I never to either funerals.. It was too much for me. They want me to visit and make peace with them."

I nod now knowing exactly what she means.

"Right now?" I sigh.

"Yes or in an hour I'll wake up from another one.. It's a sign." She states knowing exactly what she means and meaning it.

"Alright Chey, you know how you said that the want to make peace with you?" She nods.

"Well, when my dad died remember ?" She nods and holds my hand.

"Well remember how my therapist had us all write notes to him and then burn them next to his grave so he could get the notes?" She nods again with a smile.

" Well, we should do that for Dominique and Emily, I think they would like it." She smiles bright and kisses me, I kiss her back.

I didn't know how much love that I would form for her over the years we have been together.

Speaking of how long we've been together today is our 4 years anniversary. All through high school I've been with her and I honestly could care less what people think.. I wouldn't change it for the world that's why I told her about writing those notes and sending them to her sister and her bestfriend because I'm going to write one too.. But it's going to ask for their blessing about proposing to Cheyenne and if they could show me a sign that they agree to it. Big day, big things. I get up off the bed and so does she and we get dressed pack our stuff, grab Vinny and head out for the car. This has to be done, it's a priority now.

Cheyenne needs this and so do I.

CHEYENNES POV

Me and Zayn reach the car and put everything in. I smile over to him through the darkness since the sun hasn't risen. She smirks back and hands me a sleeping Vinny in his doggy bed. I get into the passenger side stroking the sleeping pups back. Zayn starts the car and we're off. I look at my phone it's now 4:55 AM. I sigh and Zayn notices. He reaches over and takes my hand and kisses it. He intertwines our fingers and keeps driving to the graveyard.

We pull up and my heart stops. I look at the top of the hill and there they are. Located right next to eachother. I look over to Zayn through teary eyes. He's already crying.
