The Nightmare

"I love you too Cherry." He said, burying his face in my hair.

I smiled and wrapped my arms around him tighter. The cold wind blew, I shivered a reaction. "C'mon let's get inside or we'll catch our deaths out here." Said Dally

"But I don't want to move I'm happy right here." I said whining

He smiled, "I know, but if we get inside we can hold each other." He said

"Fine." I said grumpily

He smiled and wound his arm around my waist. Leading me into Bucks.

"Dally!" Sylvia said

"Ugh! What do you want?!" Dally sighed

"You, that's what I want." She said

"No!" I said

"Oh look your sister is taking up for you how cute!" She said with a sour tone

"Leave Cherry outta this Sylvia! And no!" Dally said

Dally went upstairs and I didn't follow, but he came back and took my hand and lead me upstairs. "Why didn't you let me stay down there?" I asked

"Cause Cherry you're too much like me. You would've killed her." He said knowingly

He was right I hate it when he's right!

"Yeah." I said

He sat down on my bed and opened his arms for me, I went into them I sat in his lap. He cradled me. "Dally?"

"Hm?" He said

"Are you going to sleep in here?" I asked

"No, did you want me to?" He asked

"You don't have to." I said, and yawned.

"Go to sleep." He commanded

"Fine.." I said

"Why don't you want to go to sleep?" He asked

"If this is a dream I'll wake up." I said

"It's not a dream Cherry." He said "now go to sleep."

"Ok." I said, and fell asleep. I felt him slip from under me, and him put me under the covers. He left.

He came back after a good thirty minuets. I heard my door click open. I felt his cool lips press against my forehead, I smelled his leather jacket. He kissed my forehead again, his lips were still cool from the winter night air.

Many hours later I awoke screaming. I heard Dally's feet as he ran to my room.

He threw the door open and ran to me.

"Cherry!" He said in alarm and he put his hands on my shoulders. "Are you ok?!"

I just sobbed, he held me to his chest I sobbed into his bare chest. He pulled me back and looked me in the eyes.

"What's wrong?" He asked, wiping the tears from my eyes.

"It was just a dream!" I said relieved

"What was wrong Pie?" He asked

"I had a dream Johnny died and then you killed yourself." I said

"No, no I would never do that to you." He said reassuringly rubbing my hair. "Now stop crying Pie." He begged

"Ok," I nodded and stopped crying "what time is it?"

"12:00am." He replied "go back to sleep." He said

"Will you stay with me?" I asked

"Do you want me to?" He asked

"Yes please." I said

"Of course I will." He said.

He pulled the covers back and put me under them. He walked around to the other side of the bed and crawled in next to me he laid on his side facing me. I snuggled to him he put his arms around me holding me there.

"Go to sleep Cherry Pie." He said

"Ok." I said muffled by his chest. I fell asleep.
