Stirring in the bed,I finally opened my eyes to an unfamiliar place,I was about to panic when I remembered I was still at Zack's apartment.

I grabbed my phone and found it was now close to midnight,I had been sleeping for an entire day. I turned to the side of the bed and noticed Hunter wasn't in bed next to me.

I went to the bathroom then freshened up.

I walked out of Hunter's room to the living room where I found him on his up top working.

"It's midnight aren't you tired"I asked. He looked up from this laptop.

"My love what are you doing out of bed,go back to sleep"he ordered.

"How did you get hurt"I asked pointing to his left arm.

"Nothing,I accidentally hit something sharp. It's nothing serious"

"Are you sure,it looks serious"

"Go back to bed my love"

I ignored his statement and continued walking towards him. When I got close,I grabbed his laptop from his lap then placed it on the coffee table. I sat down on his lap.

"That laptop stole my place"I commented. He chuckled then laid back on the armrest.

"Really now, my love no one can take your place"he stated. I laid back so my head was laying on his bare chest.

"Why aren't you alseep don't you feel tired"I asked. He wrapped his hand around my waist.

"I'm used to it, I'm not tired. I had some sleep earlier"he replied.

"For how long"I asked. He sighed.

"Two to three hours"he answered.

"That's not healthy Hunter"I scolded.

"I had a nightmare and if I get a nightmare I fail to fall asleep again"he answered.

"A nightmare do you want to talk about it"I asked.

"I saw mom in my dreams again"he began.

This was the first time he opened up about his mother actually he never talked about his past in details, he knew everything about me but he refused to let me in on his past.

"What was she doing"I asked.

"She was blaming me for her death"he answered. I sat up.

"It was just a dream. She would never say that to you"

"I know but it's true. It was all my fault, If I stayed back and obeyed my father maybe"he spoke closing his eyes.

"Maybe she would have been alive"I finished for him.

"Maybe just maybe"

"What proof do you have that she would have survived. Even if she did would you have been alive. You're mother knew what would happen if she helped you escape and she was willing to die for you. She lost her life trying to protect your life because she believed in you"

"I just miss her so much.if I could, I'd go back in time and take her place"he blurted out. I laid back on his chest.

"Don't say that. I know you had to go through alot to reach this point but wasn't it all worth it"I asked.

"It was because I found you and I'm never letting you go"he whispered in my ear.

"I'm never leaving" I assured.

"I know you'll never"

"Hunter"I called.

"My love"
