Love and War

Part 82 - Nightmare

   After a few minutes Aniyah got up and Kaiden said "Aniyah.."

Aniyah said "I'll be right back, I need to clean your wound.."

She quickly left and walked downstairs and everyone looked at her worried, she took a deep breath and said "He's calm now.. Just.. Franklyn died."

Everyones eyes widened and Aniyah said "I'll be with him." and she walked into the medical room and grabbed out everything she needed and she walked out fast and ran up the stairs and into his room, he was sitting up staring at the broken glass and Aniyah grabbed his hand and she grabbe the tweezers and started gently picking the glass out of his fists.

Kaiden watched her and Aniyah cleaned his wounds and she placed some liquid medication on some gauze and placed it on his fists and then wrapped them gently but tight enough. She got up and threw everything away and set the good stuff down in the bathroom and got into bed with him.

He looked at her and said "Can you hold me?"

Aniyah smiled and nodded her head and Kaiden layed down and Aniyah layed down next to him and he layed his head on her chest and closed his eyes and Aniyah started playing with his hair with her right hand and she had her left arm on him.

After a few hours it was already 11:49 P.M and Aniyah tapped Kaiden and he said "hmm?"

Aniyah said "Did you eat dinner?"

Kaiden nodded his head and said "We all had pizza again."

Aniyah laughed and said "We should get some sleep."

Kaiden said "Stay with me."

Aniyah said "I need to use the bathroom, then I'll be right back, so get all comfortable and dressed." And she got out of bed and walked into Kaiden's bathroom.

Kaiden got undressed into his boxers and layed down fully and he stared up at the ceiling and after a few minutes Aniyah walked back in and layed down next to him and he instantly wrapped his arms tightly around her and pulled her close into him and he pressed his face to her chest and closed his eyes.

Aniyah smiled and kissed the top of his head and said "Goodnight baby."

Kaiden said "Goodnight sunshine."

Aniyah and Kaiden drifted off too sleep together and they didn't let go of each other once.

————————————————————

Kaiden woke up and Aniyah wasn't in the bed, he sat up and said "Aniyah!?"

Kaiden groaned and got out of bed, he walked out of his room and downstairs, he saw Aniyah sitting down on the couch and he looked at the clock on the wall and said "Aniyah.. it's 2am, why are you awake?"

Aniyah stood up and walked up to him and said "You know I love you right?"

Kaiden smiled and said "Yes baby."

Aniyah wrapped her arms tightly around the back of his neck and said "I'm sorry about Franklyn.."

Kaiden rested his forehead on hers and said "Me too.. but I know you'll be here every step of the way."

Aniyah smiled and said "Exactly. Me and You baby."

Kaiden smiled bright and said "Me and You."

Aniyah removed her arms from him and said "I was just looking around. Woke up couldn't fall back asleep."

Kaiden smiled and said "Understandabe."

Aniyah smiled and walked infront of a window and looked out it and said "It's so beautiful at night, ya know?"

Kaiden nodded his head and said "You like looking at the stars?"

Aniyah nodded her head and smiled and she looked behind him and said "Oh Hey Justin!"

Justin smiled and stood next to Kaiden and said "Hey you two."

Kaiden said "umm.. your here early."

Justin laughed and said "It's good that I'm here."

Kaiden said "Whatever you say Justin."

Aniyah looked back at the window and then the glass broke and Kaiden and Justin jumped and Aniyah looked down and Kaiden said "Baby.. are you okay?"

Aniyah faced him and Kaiden's eyes widened, Aniyah's chest was bleeding and she fell to the ground and Kaiden ran over to her and lifted her up and he ripped off her shirt and there was a gunshot in her chest, Justin ducked down and said "I don't see them!!"

Kaiden was crying and said "Baby.. hey.. look at me."

Aniyah looked up at him and she said "Kaiden... I'm scared."

Kaiden ran his fingers through her hair and said "I'm here.. just.. fight, okay? Just focus on me."

Aniyah said "I-m so.. cold kai-den."

Kaiden said "Aniyah stop!"

Aniyah's body sunk into him and gun shots started going off and Kaiden shook Aniyah and said "Baby.. baby wake up!"

Aniyah didn't move and Kaiden said "no no no.. Aniyah!! Please! Baby.."

Kaiden pulled Aniyah's dead body up to him and he screamed in pain and Justin said "come on! We gotta move!"

Justin started pulling him and Kaiden kept screaming "get off me!! No!! Get off!!"

--------------------

2:40 A.M

Aniyah was getting a glass of water and she heard screaming, Aniyah dropped her glass and she sprinted upstairs into Kaiden's room, he was in his bed screaming in pain crying he started yelling get off me and no, repeatedly.

Aniyah ran to him and said "Kaiden! Kaiden wake up!"

Kaiden started moving fast around trying to push Justin off in his dream, Aniyah slapped him across the face and Kaiden sat up fast gasping for air, Aniyah grabbed his face and said "Hey baby.. your okay, it was just a dream. Look at me."

Kaiden looked at her while crying hysterically and he pulled her into a tight hug and Aniyah wrapped her arms around him and ran her fingers through his hair and said "What happend?"

Kaiden cried hard into her shoulder and said "you died... in my arms.. it was so scary.. I couldn't think, I couldn't breathe, people we're shooting bullets and Justin was trying to get me to move and I couldn't leave you, I wanted to die next to you."

Aniyah took a deep breath and said "I'm alive baby, I'm not leaving you anytime soon.. I promise you that."

Kaiden gripped her back hard and said "It felt so real.."

Aniyah unhugged him and grabbed his face and sat down on his lap and said "It wasn't baby. Your okay.. I'm here. Me and You."

Kaiden placed his hands on her hips and layed his head on her chest and he started breathing in pace and his tears stopped flowing out Aniyah ran her fingers through his hair and kissed the top of his head and layed him back gently and she layed down next to him and wrapped her arms tightly around him and he did the same.

Aniyah buried her face into his chest and Kaiden closed his eyes and kissed her forehead and said "I can't lose you.. ever." Aniyah whispered "You won't." Kaiden took a deep breath and Aniyah closed her eyes and they both drifted off to sleep together.
