"Good morning sunshine" I hear Ace whisper into my ear
Blinking my eyes open, I look up and see him looking down at me embracing me in his arms .
I lift my hand and caress his cheek. His face wasn't bandaged but was normal, like before the plane crash. He was fine, and was right here beside me."Good morning" I breath out and bring his face closer to mine capturing his lips.
I lift myself up to be straddling him on the bed and tug on his hair as he deepens the kiss"I'm so lucky to have you as my wife" he breaths out pulling away from the kiss and looking me in the eyes
His deep deep blue eyes, oh how I'm getting lost in them.
"Wife" I whisper
I'm his wife.... I start to feel this weird feeling in my stomach, I felt panic."Mommy!" I hear a small voice call from another room
"Do you want me to go, or do you want to go?" Ace asks me
"Mommy!" The small voice yells louder
"I'm sorry?" I ask with confusion
"To see what our child wants" he says with a smile
"Child? We have a child?" I ask feeling like I was being suffocated
"Yes darling. Your my wife and we have kids. Your locked with me. Forever...." he says with a devilish smile and starts laughing
The world starts turning and I felt like I was being suffocated. I couldn't breathe. I suddenly see Ace on top of me, choking me. He is trying to kill me.
"Forever and ever" he repeats
My head is spinning and I hear someone calling my name"ALEXANDRA!"
I wake up pushing myself up
Oh thank god that was a dream, I turn and see Molly holding my arms sitting beside me in the bedI notice that I'm all sweaty and that I was probably crying in my sleep
"Oh my, I've been calling your name for the past 10 minutes trying to wake you up! You were having another nightmare." she says getting up"Yes. I was" I say and get up walking over to the bathroom
"Are you ok dear? You know you can talk to me if you need anything" she says
"Molly, their getting worse. The nightmares" I say with a sigh
It's been 2 months since Ace passed away, and the nightmares started coming and going but now, I'm constantly having them.
"I'll call Doctor Ashley again" she says In a whisper and leaves my room
I let out a sigh and close my eyes for a moment before I got changed. I really need to get out more... I've been constantly only going to work and back home everyday.
After showering and changing into sweatpants and a top, I walk down the stairs to the kitchen to see Molly and Gary sitting there.
Today was my day off, yay.
"Morning Gary" I greet and grab an apple
"Morning dear" he says and pulls out a piece of paper with his hand shaking
He looked very nervous. It looked as if he wanted to give me the letter he's holding but was hesitating
"Is there something wrong?" I ask
"Alex dear, Gary wants to give you something" Molly says for him
I start to feel worry, was everything all right?
"Alex, I-I'm sorry, but my health has been getting worse and I think it's time for me to go" he says giving me the letter he was holding
"It's a resignation letter, you know I enjoy working here but, it's time I take a break" he says with a small smile
I look at the paper in my hand, and then look up at him. He was standing beside me with his hand on my shoulder, I turn to face him and embrace him in a hug.
"Thank you for everything Gary. I totally understand but thank you for everything you did for me" I say and continue hugging him
Gary wasn't young, it was about time he took a break and spent time with his family. I just felt sad that he wouldn't be around anymore. He and Molly are the only 2 people I have.
"I'll still come back to visit as much as I can" he says
"You better!" I say with a smile pointing at him
"Alright dear, so how are you going to get around now that I'll be gone?" He asks taking a seat on a stool
"Don't worry about me. I still know how to drive and take the bus" I say with a laugh
"Well you can't just let those beautiful cars in the garage rot in there" Molly says from behind me
I turn to face her "I know I know, but, not now. Later..." I breath out
Ace has MANY cars. Beautiful cars. Expensive cars. But, I couldn't bring myself to use them, which is why I always had Gary take me to work. I guess it was just an excuse to not use Ace's cars and other things. I still felt uneasy and this was all still new to me....
"Well, I called Dr. Ashley and he'll be here at 4pm. He's just finishing up with a few patients at the clinic" Molly says
"Sounds good, thanks Molly" I say
I decide to go back upstairs and grab my phone but before entering my room, I stop at Ace's room.
I haven't been in his room since-
Hell, I don't think I've ever been in his room.Molly would go in to clean from time to time but I never wanted her removing anything. I for some reason had this feeling that I should never touch anything because I wanted everything to stay the same for when he came back.
But he's never coming back.
Never.Pushing away the tears, I open his door and walk in. His room was huge, I think it was the biggest bedroom in the house.
There was a very spacious walk in closet with all his close still hanging and a huge modern bathroom. In front of his untouched bed, was a living room with fireplace. It all looked spotless and everything was untouched.
In the far left corner, I notice a table with his violin case.
His violin.I walk up to the table and touch the case carefully as if it was going to break.
Or as if I was going to break.I look around one last time before running out of the room and closing the door behind me with tears streaming down my face.
