Proving Our Love

Chapter 60 - Scary dreams and shopping

* Issys's POV *

I woke up to Emily screaming and crying next to me, causing me to switch on the light, before taking her in my arms.

" Sweetheart what's wrong?, I asked her, holding her to my chest as she cried, holding on tightly to my shirt.

" I had a bad dream and im scared", she said, sniffling into my clothing.

" Shhh it's okay your okay why are you scared what happended in your dream?", I asked her.

" I was in a scary place and there were monsters everywhere", she cried.

" It was just a dream it wasn't real Emily your okay I promise sweetie. Don't be scared babe", I told her, resting my head against hers as hers laid against my shoulder.

" Wanna know a secret?", I asked her.

" What is it?", she replied. Looking up at me.

" See that night light over there", I said, pointing to the little orange light on the wall, next to the corner in my room.

" Yeh", she said, wiping her eyes.

" I sleep with that light every night. I didn't just put it there for you", I said, laughing as her jaw dropped.

" You still sleep with a night light Issy? But your twenty years old", she said, making me smile.

" I know, Harry makes fun of me for it too. I've just always slept with one. Doesn't that make you feel a little better?" , I reassured her, watching as she nodded.

" Yeh a little, but can you leave the light on until I fall back asleep?", she asked.

" Of course", I said, pulling the blanket over us as she closed her eyes, snugging into my arms.

" Thank you for always letting me stay in your room to sleep whenever I stay over", she said tiredly, making me smile at her sweet words.

" Your welcome honey don't worry about it. Now go back to sleep", I told her, watching as she fluttered her eyes closed, falling back to sleep within minutes.

I looked at the time and it was 3am, remembering of how it would be eight or nine in the morning of where Harry and the boys were in New York for a charity event, so I decided to text him.

Me:

Hi babe:) , I was then surprised that he responded within the next two minutes.

Harry:

Hi love:) can't sleep?

Me:

Not exactly, I woke up to Emily having a bad dream and now she fell back asleep, so now I'm wide awake.

Harry:

Haha, aw poor thing.

Me:

I know:( now I probably won't fall back asleep that easily.

Harry:

When I said poor thing I was talking about Emily. But aw, you poor thing Iss.

Me:

:O

Harry:

Lol I'm kidding I meant poor thing for the both of you haha. Do you want to keep texting till you fall back asleep?

Me:

That's okay I just wanted to talk to you for a bit while I'm awake for now.
