You.

I woke up, heavily panting from the nightmare. I looked around the lone bedroom, reassuring myself that there was no one.

It was a cold, rainy night and the thunder had no intentions in stopping.

I hurriedly searched for my phone on the dresser, finally finding it and dialing his number.

Hello?" He groggily replied.

"Hey... Quee? Can you come over? It's the nightmares, again," I replied, now in a teary frenzy.

"Hey mama, you good? You want me to come over now?" He said, I could tell he was waking up and rushing out.

I sniffled as I ran my hand through my hair.

"Yeah, please."

"15 minutes, I gotchu."

The door unlocked and I hurriedly ran down the stairs, throwing myself into his arms and I couldn't contain the tears.

"What's wrong baby girl?" He rubbed my back softly as he hushed me.

"I- it's the nightmares. They- they-"

"Shh. Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked, never letting me go.

I inhaled his strong scent as he kept rubbing my back. I looked up at the beautiful man ahead of me, his long dreads tied up in a bun, his plump lips glistening from him licking them so much.

"I think it's time I told you exactly how they started."

We were now in my bed, laid up under the blankets with him behind me. He had his hand tightly around my waist as my back was against his torso.

"You ain't gotta say anything if you ain't ready. We can just lay up here until you sleep." He said as he brought me closer every now and then.

Even though we had already been close, he always seemed to find a way to bring me closer each time, reassuring me that I was safe.

It was right at that moment where everything came back to me. The exact events from that plane crash, and I started crying again.

"Y/N, what's wrong? You been crying ever since that plane crash. Baby girl, is there anything I should know?" He asked as we were now seated straight up on the bed.

"Remember Reese, the Caucasian girl I told you about?" I trailed off.

He pulled me into his arms as I stuttered.

"She- I- it was all a b- big mess," I continued. "Quee, she died right before my eyes. Some sharp piece of metal pierced right into her heart..."

"Shh shh shh, it's not your fault. Don't cry baby girl."

"And all she kept saying was 'please, I don't wanna die, I have a little brother expecting me at his graduation, I don't wanna die.'"

"I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die, you have to help me !" I mimicked her exact words, still crying my eyes out.

It's all I kept hearing ever since that day and to know that I couldn't help her broke my heart.

"I'm grateful for being alive but maybe she should've been the one here today." I said as he repeatedly shook his head.

"NO! God kept you here for a reason, you still have a purpose in life-"

"So she didn't?"

"That's not what I'm saying, but it was her time and it was in the Lord's Will. Please don't cry, beautiful, you're too beautiful, inside and out,to be crying like this,"

He softly sang, in attempts to make me sleep.

"You been filled with tension,
I been watching
Whatchu been feigning and missing
Baby I got it
You're a cutie, you're beautiful,
What I'm sayin is you got it
I don't know why you let them tear drops run out of your socket, please don't cryyy
Cryyy
Cryyy
Lemme tell you, whyy
Whyy
Beauty doesn't cry
Beauty doesn't beauty doesn't-"

And it honestly made things worse because all I did was cry more.

"It's gonna pass, you're gonna be okay."

Fin. 🙇🏿‍♀️😭

This one honestly made me so emotional and the song, on top of that AHHH!
But it's a beautiful song anyway.

Keep your head up, Queen. 🌺✨
