The daughter of a Stark

Chapter 10

I'm in a hospital room and my mom is laying in the bed. "Mom?" I ask as I walk over to her she smiles and hugs me. "Hold my hand" she speaks in her soft voice I do as she tells me.

"I want you to take care of your dad. Be you that's what he needs right now." I give her a confused look then I realize she's dying "I love you" I say crying "I love you too" she weakly kisses my hand.

Her eyes widen she reaches out to touch something then her whole body just stops. Her eyes close and all her muscles relax.

"Mom?" I ask as I try to shake her awake "Mom!" I yell sobbing I drop to the floor crying.

I wake up in a cold sweat I'm crying so hard I can't breath. My dad barges into the room. He hugs me.

"She....she was right there" I sob "I held her hand she was there" I can't stop crying. He just rubs my back.

"Shh Mia it's ok" he says after fifteen minted I calm down as I stop crying. I tell my dad the dream. "Sweetheart you're sweating" he says as he touches my forehead.

"Friday turn the air on"he says as it gets cooler. I look over to my nightstand I open the drawer to look at the picture of her.

She has long light brown hair and dazzling blue eyes with freckles along the bridge of her nose. She is smiling while holding me and my dad is kissing her cheek. I smile at the photo I breath in put the photo back and look at my dad.

"You can stay up if you want but can you please at least try to get some sleep" He asks I nod as soon as my dead leaves the room I grab my phone and the book I was reading then I use the fire escape to climb onto the roof.

I debate on texting Peter and I just set my phone down and flip through the pages of my book.

My phone starts buzzing I look at the screen expecting it to be my dad but it's Peter. "Hey" he says "Hi" I say "Shouldn't you be asleep?" He asks me "Shouldn't you" I point out.

"Good point. Did you have a nightmare?" He asks "I wouldn't call it a nightmare but something like it" I say. "Ok I'll be there in a little bit" he says.

"Peter you don't have to do that really I'm fine" I say "Like I said before I'll be there in a few minutes" he repeats "Peter it's four in the morning" I say. "So?" He says "I'm coming over and you don't have a choice bye" he says hanging up.

I roll my eyes and groan in frustration why did he even want to come over this early in the morning? I continue to read my book until Peter arrives.

He sits next me and takes off his spidey mask. I lay my head on his shoulder. "It was about my mom" I say before he can ask "She was laying in a hospital bed she told me to take care of my dad and that I am what he needs right now. It seemed so real it felt like I was holding her hand and then she died and I tried to wake her up. I woke up sweating and sobbing" I tell him.

He doesn't say anything he just puts his arm around me and kiss my head. He places his head in top of mine. I look at my phone four thirty.

"Peter it's school night. You should get some sleep" I tell him "I'm not leaving until you go to bed" he tells me "Why?" I ask why does he care if I sleep or not? "Because I want you to get some sleep" he says.

"Why did you call me did you know I had a nightmare or something?" I ask looking up at him "I had a feeling that you would and I randomly woke up so I called you to see if you were awake. If you ignored my call I knew that you were sleeping and ok but then you picked up the phone so I figured you had a nightmare" he says.

I nod I open my book and continue to read it. I can feel Peter looking at me but ignore it. I look down over the edge of the roof. I look at how many cars are passing by for it being so early.

I watch a few of the street lights flicker. "You need to get some sleep" I tell Peter still watching the street "So do you" he tells me.

I lay my head on his shoulder again and close my eyes. He places his arm around my shoulder again. Soon I fall asleep.

I wake up when I feel Peter pick me up and take me to my bed. I turn over to look at him "Peter" I say he turns around "Hmm?" He asks standing at the door of a balcony "Thank you" I yawn and fall back asleep.
