Songs & Fire [Brett and Casey]

Sweet Dreams (Of You)

Sweet Dreams (Of You)

Song: Sweet Dreams (Of You) by Patsy Cline (This is one of my all-time favorite songs!)

Brett's POV

Sweet dreams of you

Every night I go through

Why can't I forget you and start my life anew

Instead of having sweet dreams about you

'It's been three months. Three months of pure hell for me. Three months of crying and sobbing every night. Three months of waiting and wishing for him to come back to me. But he won't. He got her back. The love of his life. He'll never come back to me. He never loved me like he does her. Never. '

Suddenly Brett was interrupted from her morose thoughts as the doors to the ambulance burst open with an overly-excited Emily Foster.

"Hey, Brett where should we put this new backboard we just got in?"

Brett shook her head as she quickly tried to blink away the looming teardrops of sadness.

"I'm sorry. What did you say, Foster?"

Foster quickly looked around to make sure no one was looking then like a ninja she jumped into the back of the ambulance with Brett and closed the door behind her.

"You okay, B?"

"Umm...yeah, I'm fine."

Foster simply nodded her head before she took a breath and tried to gather up the courage to say what she had been wanting to say for three months.

"Brett, listen, you need to get over him. Okay, he's happy, and I know it hurts but you can keep going on like this. It's too much. Okay?"

Brett looked at Foster and started shaking her head, "I'm sorry Foster. I just don't know how to move on. I try and I just can't get over him."

"I know, B. It's hard but you are incredibly strong."

"Thank you, Foster. I really appreciate that."

"You're welcome. No come on, we have thirty minutes left on this shift and then I am taking you out to Molly's for a drink."

Brett gave a small smile then followed Foster in unlocking the ambulance and jumping out.

You don't love me, it's plain

I should know I'll never wear your ring

I should hate you the whole night through

Instead of having sweet dreams about you

Brett sat there on the barstool looking at everyone around her.

"Okay, Brett, now that you have your drink we need to find you a new guy."

"Oh, come on, Foster. I don't think I'm really ready for that."

"Yes, you are. Now, how about that guy over there."

Brett looked over her shoulder to where Foster was pointing and started laughing.

"Yeah, how about the wedding ring on his left hand as well."

"Ooff, sorry. I really need to look at the left hand before I start pointing guys out." Relied Foster as both she and Brett started giggling. Until suddenly Brett's giggling halted and her smile dropped from her face.

"What is it, Brett? You look like you've seen a ghost."

It was then that they walked by them. It was Gabby and Matt. Both were smiling like they had no care in the world.

"I'm sorry, Brett. Do you want to get out of here and go somewhere else?"

"No. No, Foster, you're right. I need to stop wallowing and move on."

Foster smiled and slammed her latest shot down, "That's my girl. Now you wait right here and I will be right back with another round."

Brett nodded, "Okay." She whispered feeling like the fake smile she was holding would crack at any moment and she would crumble to the floor crying like a newborn baby.

'I can do this. Right? I don't need him. I don't need him in my life. He left me, so I need to move on. I need to move on. I just can't. Why can't I forget him and start a new life? I know...because I love him.'

Sweet dreams of you

Things I know can't come true

Why can't I forget the past, start loving someone new

Instead of having sweet dreams about you

Hi, guys! Sorry if this wasn't the best I have written. I haven't really been in the mood this week to continue with this story, but I promise I am trying to get back into the mood. And thanks again to everyone who has left suggestions of songs I should use, I'm trying to get caught up on them. :)
