*Dream*

I was standing on the beach, staring at the ocean ahead..

Julian was standing next to me, holding my hand, and smiling my favorite crooked heart melting smile at me..

then he let go of my hand, and walked away from me, leaving me completely alone.

"wait Julian, dont leave me, come back" i cried after him but he wouldnt turn and kept walking away from me.

i wanted to follow him, to stop him, but my feet wouldnt move, its like my feet were nailed to the ground, and he was slipping away from me.

i felt a cruel stab of pain, and i sunk to ground, sobbing and shivering from the cold.

*End of dream*

i was woken up from the sound of my own screams.

i was hot, sweaty and very thirsty. i tried to get up but my body was very weak, but after several tries, i was able to change into a setting position, thats when i noticed my leg.

my right leg was covered in bandages, GREAT, JUST GREAT, how the hell did that happen?.

the stabbing pain i felt in my leg when i tried to stand up, made me fall back onto the bed.

the room i was in was small, but it was really cute. the walls were painted light blue, and there were seashells all over the walls, there was a small closet in the corner, and next to it, was a small dresser. the window was on the other side of the room, and i could see from where i was, a beautiful view of the ocean. the room was small, but it was warm and cozy. and i loved it.

the clock on the night stand told me it was way too early to call for Alex, he could be asleep, and i would feel awful if i woke him up after he saved my life, so i stayed where i was, and just stared at the ceiling...

*Flashback*

after the time Julian kicked me out of his house, i was determined to forget about him, he obviously didnt like me, and i was fooling myself thinking that he did. and after everything that has happened, i can tell you one thing: men are jerks, and Julian is no exception.

even though i still think of him, but i lost hope of anything ever happening between us.

i still came home everyday, to find things waiting for me on my front porch. roses, chocolate, champagne.., but i didnt care anymore so i threw them away without even looking at them.

 that is until...

i came home from work, and i was super tired because i didnt sleep at all the previous night, i kept tossing and turning in bed until it was time to get up and go to work.

i was dragging myself up the stairs, thinking about my soft, comfy bed, only minutes away...

i dropped my keys, and when i bent down to pick them up, i noticed a small piece of paper, right by the door. even though i threw away the chocolate, the roses, and anything else i found waiting for me without even looking at them, it killled me not knowing what was written on that small piece of paper.

"Turn around"

those two words were the only thing written on that small piece of paper, so thinking this was a joke, i crumbled it and walked over to the door to unlock it.

but what if this isnt a joke? i thought to myself, welll there's only one way to find out, so i turned around slowly, and i froze, dropping my keys once again.
