Chapter Sixty-Two - Being Named As Everything.

GRACE'S POV

The day had been very much for me to even handle. Finally, I calmed off a little when I talked to Martin about anything and everything. Even though I smiled, Alex knew something was off about me.

Once I lay in his arms, I cried letting the pain go and fell asleep, peacefully.

I don't know how, but I was transported to the street, this time, where I was surrounded by tons of reporters who were clicking pictures of me. I was scared to no limit. I just wanted to get away from this place.

Alex was supposed to be here with me, but he wasn't. I looked around to find him in this crowd but I couldn't. They're asking me questions, from worse to worst kind. Doubting me and my relationship with Alex.

"Where are you, Alex?" I muttered looking at them. They're coming closer to me and I have no one to protect me. I can't hide from them.

"Don't touch me! Go away! Alex, where are you!? Go away! Don't touch!! No pictures!! Please go away!" I screamed but they won't let me leave. They were shaking me and suddenly I dropped in a sudden light in a swoosh.

"Ace?" I heard his voice. My breathing was ragged. I felt so suffocated, a while ago. I touched my neck trying to ease myself. And took in deep breaths.

"Oh, God! Reporters! Alex they...Oh, God!" I said breathlessly. It all felt so real. I hid my face in my palm and started crying. I felt a warm arm wrap around me and I snuggled into him. I still sobbed.

"Calm down, honey," Alex muttered and I nodded but it was still hard. It felt like the nightmares I had when Mom had passed away, were better than these. At least, I saw me and Mom's memories and cried to a sad life, but this was a torture to me.

"It felt so real...I..." I took a deep breath and just tried to calm down. There was a knock on the door. Alex went to open and entered a very worried Martin.

"You good?" He asked but he saw the tears and came by my side. He shook his head.

"Martin, just one. Please." I said and he knew what I was talking about. He sighed after a full minute and came back with what I needed.

"Just this once, never again." I nodded and he took the glass of water and gave me the pill.

"What is that?" Alex asked as I took the pill and sighed in relief.

"It's a... sleeping pill," Martin answered and Alex was pissed.

"How the f*ck?! Why do you have that? And why did you give it to her?! Damn it!" He yelled at Martin. I just calmed and waited for the pill to work.

"To her condition, currently that is the only way. You don't know her condition, it's a requirement." Martin said and I could feel Alex's heart constrict at his words. I nodded as Alex looked at me and then he sighed.

"I'll tell you everything tomorrow, I promise. Please, come to bed with me." I pleaded him with my eyes. Alex came and sat beside me. Martin kissed my hair.

"Take care, I'll come in the morning." I just nodded at him, because the pills had started working.

"Please never take that again." I nodded as I hugged him and felt my eyes droop down and I fell into darkness where I knew nightmares wouldn't haunt me.
