(Nicole)
"Bye Matthew, love you"
"I love you too see you soon"
Me and shawn say our goodbyes to Matt and leave the airport
We take the city bus in silence and walk to the nearest cafe, which was a Starbucks
"So" "so" "Nicole, can I just tell you something?"
"K"
"ok to be honest the past week and a half was fun with Matt around, but I felt like a third wheel"
"I'm sorry" "mhm, I get it you just don't want to be friends with me anymore"
"No, I never said that, I just-" "What ever Nicole"
"Your making me feel bad" "don't, I get it. Nicole what's on your arm?!"
"Stop screaming and what's on my arm?" I look down "oh"
"Nicolette Grace?" that's my real name.. "Yea"
"Why?"
I get up, speechless, throw my stuff out and leave, he quickly followed
"Please?" he holds me tight
"Cuz you were never there when I needed you most"
"I am so sorry, when was this"
"Look, it doesn't matter to me anymore, it was like 5 months ago so"
His eyes widen up
"It matters to me"

"Oh my god" "just a dream, it's uh 2:27 in the morning" I take my phone off the nightstand and quickly dial Shawn. I've been having this dream for the past week every single night and tonight it just felt real, this is weird.
(Shawn)
I love it when you just don't care
I love it when you dance like there's nobody there
So when it gets hard, don't be afraid
We don't care what them people say
"That sounds better than what I first had" I quickly scribble this in the notebook
I hear my cell phone ring, it's Nicole. Why is she up so early in this hour? Well you are Shawn. I have my reasons
"Hello?"
"Shawn?"
"Yea? What's up"
"Oh I had this dream, omg I can't right now. Do you think you can come over? Or is it too early?"
"No it's not, I'll come in a few" I'll just continue this another day
----
I am getting worried about her, she calls me at 2:30 in the morning to come comfort her.
I text her that I'm here and I hear her running down the steps, she opens the door to reveal her hair is braided in pigtails, makeup, probably mascara running down her face and is wearing her little bunny slippers she got for Christmas from Caitlin
"Nicolette grace, is everything ok?" I hug her as she silently cries "c'mon, let's lie down" she falls onto the long couch and covers her face with the pillow "Nikki, tell me what's the matter, how does a dream have so much affect on you"
"Shawn it was terrible, I can't even describe what it feels like," she whispers "I'm so pathetic
"Noooo don't say that, you're a strong girl" "thanks but I don't know"
"Your parents are still on vac? Did Joe go too?" She nods in response to what I said.
After about 2 minutes her breathing isn't so heavy anymore and I tell her that I'll stay with her. We are facing each other, lying so close that there isn't really that much space between us. I like it that way, n I feel like she does too.
"Thank you for everything, your everything I want in this world and everything I need." She says in a low cute tired tone
"You too" I smile as I watch her drift away to go to sleep as I hold her tightly
---the morning---
I am awakened by some footsteps and the creek of the door
"Aww look at that" I see it's Caitlin, don't know why she's here though she sits on the other couch waiting "look at what cait" "you two, so close" I feel a faint of red in my cheeks and turn to Nicole, she just woke up.
"Caitlin, what are you doing here" "I told you, I was coming, just took me a while" "what you came all the way from NC for me?" "A promise is a promise"
"Thanks so m-"
"We're home from the Bahamas"
