Jess's POV:

I suddenly woke up at Grayson's treehouse and looked around worriedly. Did I dream? Am I actually going to an asylum? My thoughts took over my head as I got up and walked out of the roof to the bottom floor to get some water and to try and find Grayson.

I walked down the stairs waiting for footsteps to be heard but instead it was quiet, so quiet that even the lightest piece of metal could be heard when dropped onto the floors.

I turned towards the kitchen and saw that the tap was running, I looked around the room carefully before entering with a glass in my hand. The sink was getting closer to me but it felt like it had been an eternity until I reached it.

"Surprised Jess?" A voice said behind me making me scream and drop the glass allowing it to shatter on the floor. I cursed myself for not dropping it on my feet to allow some pain to be released from me.

My thoughts were interrupted when I remembered there was someone behind me. I turned around to be faced by Tami, my supposed mother who didn't love me at all.

"What are you doing here? How do you know about this place?" She started to walk closer to me as I walked back but not until I winced in pain and relief as the glass entered my foot.

"Grayson called me, he committed suicide because of you and your inhumane state. He despised you and was scared that you would attack him with your ill mannered thoughts causing him to end his life for good." She smirked as she finished talking and started to walk around the room as I stood there shocked.

"There's no way he committed suicide, we know everything about each other! WE WERE SUPPOSED TO LEAVE YOU AND HIS FAMILY!" She rolled her eyes at my mini breakdown and picked up the broom.

"If you don't believe me why don't we go and check on your little friend shall we?" I stood there confused as my anxiety took over my body causing me to lose my breath at the thought of Grayson actually being gone.

She pointed towards the bathroom and handed me the broom, I turned to look at the bathroom door and back to her only to see that she had left me alone to discover his state.

I walked up to the door and knocked on it praying that he would open it and that everything would be ok but it was silent on the other side of the door.

I took in a deep breath before knocking the door down with a broom to find Grayson on the floor with cuts all over him sitting unconsciously on the ground.

I couldn't keep it together and broke down not believing that this was reality. I cried and fell down next to him in a puddle of blood as I kept on slapping his chest hoping for some movement but there was nothing.

"Jess, it's me."  I gasped and looked at him confused as to where the noise was coming from.

"Stop crying Jess! Please wake up! WAKE UP WAKE UP!" I screamed before being awoken to someone shaking me. I turned to my left to find Grayson staring at me worriedly.

I got up and jumped into his arms as I cried into his shoulder. I couldn't breathe and I was choking from the lack of oxygen.

He put me down and immediately got out my inhaler and pills to calm myself down. I grabbed them from his hands and took them while taking deep breaths until I was stable.

"Jess what happened!" He stared at me in shock with a worried expression on his face.

"I thought you had left me alone to suffer in this world, you left me for death." His eyes widened before shaking his head furiously.

"I wouldn't right now, if I didn't know you I would have but I'm here now. Let's go catch our flight." I got up carefully and stared at my foot which was not cut from the glass and walked with Grayson to the aeroplane.

I had booked us the most expensive tickets possible with my parents money just to show that I wasn't going anywhere which was a huge surprise when Grayson stared in awe at the seats in front of us.

"You bought these tickets!?" I nodded at him trying not to smile as he was smiling in shock, I savoured the moment as this was one of the few times he smiled. "You didn't have to, they're really expensive. We can just.."

"Grayson it's fine trust me! It's payback so let's go." He nodded before sitting next to me and placing his feet in the compartment below before turning to face me.

"Now what happened at the airport, I'm worried about you." I scratched my neck nervously wondering how I could talk about how I felt until an idea popped into my head.

"Can I write it instead? Sort of like the letters we used to sent?" He smirked at me before nodding and turning his head towards the window.

I sighed before taking out my notepad and pen and wrote down everything I felt and the feelings I couldn't explain through a simple conversation.

By the time I was done we were already in the air and I gulped looking out the window until I saw Grayson smile at me.

"Did you finish writing?" I smiled and handed him the paper.

Grayson's POV:

I took the paper carefully still worried about Jess's mental state before reading it.

Dreaming is like going into the underworld
It's mysterious yet confusing
It makes you question everything
Dreams are supposed to reflect your emotions throughout the days for you to enjoy at night
My dreams don't...
My dreams make me wake up at night and cry myself back to sleep until I start repeating the process all over again
Most people can't even remember their dreams and wished that they could
I don't...
Dreaming is only for the night but for me it's throughout the day
The fiction of my dreams turns into the reality of my day
My dreams make my anxiety worsen
They make me hide away from the world and end up being alone
Being alone isn't that bad once you've been through it for a while
But my dreams make being alone a living hell
And that's the only language I've spoken since then...
