"So, you guys just go around and meet us back in the hotel at 6:30." Bamboo waves and we all seperate.

I'm left alone as I sit underneath a tree.

"Hey." A voice comes from behind me.

I stand up immediately.

"Hi!" I laugh nervously as I brush off the grass on my jeans.

"Do you wanna...um...take a walk around?" JK shoves his hands in his pockets.

I smile. "Sure."

"So...uh..." JK says as we walk around the pond.

The pond. My dream.

"Hello? Anyone in there?" JK waves a hand in front of my face.

"Huh?" I snap out of my daydream.

"You okay? You seem...off..."

Then turn me on.

"Uh...I was just thinking."

"About what?"

You.

"Stuff." I answer as he raises an eyebrow in suspicion.

I sigh.

I need to tell him.

"Okay, well...you know there was this one night that I dreamt of you and me and we were...well...together...so...yeah."

He laughs.

"What?" I ask.

"It's just so funny." "Why?"

"Because I know that'll never happen."

"Bestie?" Mia knocks on my hotel room door.

I look up as she enters with a mug of hot chocolate.

"Hey." I croak.

"Just something to help you sleep." She smiles as she sets down the mug and exits.

I stare at it before going into the blankets and falling asleep.

I wake up to a blood curdling scream. I jolt awake, looking for the source of the sound.

Another scream.
A sob.

It's coming from the other room.

"No! Please, don't!"

I bolt out of my room as I hear another shout.

It's coming from the door on my right, which is slightly ajar.

Without thinking, I burst through the door.

Juan Karlos.

Writhing in bed and screaming.

Suddenly, I forget about what he said, forgot about everything else.

I run to him, shaking his shoulders. "Karlos! JK! Wake up!" I say in his ear.

His eyes fly open and my heart breaks at the fear in his eyes.

"Amber." He breaths out and the remaining pieces of my heart breaks.

He pulls me into a hug and something like a sob escapes him and his body trembles.

With my heart still broken, I pull away and take his face in my hands, pressing my forehead on his.

"Hey,hey...it's okay. I'm here, you're okay..shh..."

When his breathing is slower, I release him and hug him.

"What happened?" I ask him as he looks down at me.

"Nightmare."he breathes.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I ask gently.

He stays silent.

"Maybe tomorrow." He says as I start to get out.

"Wait."

I turn around, to find JK staring at me with glossy eyes.

"Won't you....can't you stay with me?" He almost whimpers.

I smile a bit and go to lay down next to him as he wraps an arm around me.

And as we lay there, his lips on my forehead, a thought ran in my mind that what if....what if we could be together, like in my fantasy.

What if...

What if
