IS THIS REAL?

Chapter 18

"Colby! Colby! Wake up" she tried to shook him but he did not budge one bit.

"Jeez why does he have to be so heavy" she said to herself and tried to wake him up again.

"Look I'm sorry, just forgive please" he said  while still sleeping.

"Colby I know you can hear me! wake up"

"Huh? What? What happened becks" he rubbed eyes.

"Oh thank God" she sighed. "You happened Colby, you were having a bad dream"

"Oh yeah sorry about that" he sat up and checked the time. 3 AM.

"Why are you apologizing for dreaming"
she giggled and stood up.

"Becks? He asked.

"Hmm?" She turned to face him.

"Hold me, please."he begged sorrowfully.

"Come on lad you'll be alright" she patted him on the shoulder.

"Please Rebecca just..." he grabbed her arm rapidly before she could walk away.

"Okay okay fine come on, hopefully you'll be more comfortable on the bed," she said.

They got up,went to the bed then laid down together. He held onto her tightly like a scared little boy holding onto his mother. She tried to move but his hold was too tight. She thought to herself who knew such a big strong man like Colby cold be so vulnerable and weak when having such a minor nightmare. She closed her eyes and tried to get some rest but couldn't. She noticed Colby wouldn't stop shivering. The room temperature was alright but he would not stop.

"I'm so cold Becks" he stuttered.

"How, its not even cold in here" she responded.

"I don't know but just make it go away please" he pleaded with her.

"Ok I'll put the covers on hopefully that"ll make you warm enough," she lifted up the covers so he could go under the sheets.

"Is that warm enough for ya" she said as she ruffled the sheets around.

"Yes thank you" he settled in comfortably.

"Do you always get like this?"she said

"Sometimes, it usually does not happen unless my dreams are this drastic."

"Do you want to talk about the dream you had" she said

"No not really, can we just go to sleep please" he said." Can we pretend like it didn't just happen ok?" He said coldly and turned away from her.

"Oh ok" she felt touched when he said that.
" Well sleep well then." she turned over to    see him but he was already asleep.

Rebecca woke to the sun glowing on her face. She moved around and felt the left side of the bed empty but found a note on the table.

Be back soon,you look so peaceful I didn't want to wake you up. Just went for a quick jog to clear my mind and don't worry I'll bring you some breakfast.

She smiled. She thought he had left her for good but she was wrong. She got out, made up the bed, then changed into her workout clothes then went down to the gym downstairs.

After a nice long workout, she headed back to her hotel room and took a nice long warm bubble bath to process what was going on in her mind at that moment.

Few minutes later she was sitting on the couch talking to Ashley on the phone then heard the door open. He walked in wearing  his leggings with black shorts, his black jersey and his signature black hat turned backwards of course.

"I gotta go. I'll talk to you later. Bye" she hung up the phone.

"I bought you your quinoa and your favorite coffee" he said handing the food to her.

"Oh my you know me so well, thanks" she sat down back on the couch. " why didn't you get yourself some?"

"I'm not really hungry right now, I'll eat later on." He moved along to his bag and took out some clean clothes.

"I'm gonna go take a quick shower, I'll leave the door opened incase you wanna join" he laughed.

"Hmm I'm good not today anyways" she smirked and took a sip of the coffee.

"Oh ok I'm still leaving it open though" he said and walked in the bathroom and left the door opened.

"Omg he was serious about that" she said to herself then, got up and closed the door.

After she was done eating, she prepared her bags as she would be travelling again to a new city for some hours shows. Then she received a strange text from an unknown number.

I know he is with you right now.

You don't know who he really is.

Ooh another cliffhanger. I Should stop with those.😃
Who could be texting her?

Watch out for the next Chapter.

Sending good vibes to everyone
And Happy Easter.
Have a Blessed Sunday
