~NICOLE'S POV~
I woke up suddenly. I felt Payton moving around to I quickly looked over. He was shaking his head back and forth. Causing the tears forming in his eyes to get the ends of his hair wet. He was dreaming. I turned on the light and checked the time. 3:07 am. I played with his hair slightly and rubbed his arm.
Nicole: "Payton it's okay, it's just a dream." I repeated.
Payton: "No no no." He said over and over again.
Tears were no falling from his eyes heavily now.
Payton: "No please let me go." He said and clenched the bed sheets.
I got worried. So I shook him with more force.
Nicole: "Baby it's just a dream." I said and I had tears begin to form in my eyes as well.
He shot up from his sleep in a gasp. His breath was heavy and arms were shaky.
Nicole: "Payton, are you alright?" I asked worrisome.
He dove into my arms and warmed his arms tightly around mine.
Nicole: "Babe it's okay it was just a dream." I said trying to calm him down.
Payton: "No it wasn't, it was real." he said and tears fell from his eyes to the back of my neck.
~8:48 am~
I couldn't sleep. I didn't want to bombard him with questions that early so I told him to go back to sleep. So he did and he was still asleep. I wanted to stay awake incase his dream came back. I never really knew about his past life so I assumed it was about that, but who knows. I showered and threw on his hoodie and some sweatpants and made coffee. I was greeted by Porter and Kam as usual and I went back upstairs to see Payton up and laying in bed, staring at the ceiling.
Payton: "Good morning princess." he said with a smile and kissed me on the forehead.
I took it as a surprise since I would think he would be in a bad mood.
Payton: "Are you alright?" he asked.
Nicole: "Yeah..are you?" I asked setting the coffee down.
Payton: "Yeah? why wouldn't I be?" he asked.
Nicole: "I don't know, you had a really bad dream last night that seemed painful so I thought you would be in a bad mood or something." I said sitting next to him.
Payton: "I did?" he asked confused.
Nicole: "Yes but nevermind." I said looking down at my hands.
Payton: "Okay well i'll be in the shower if you wanna join." he said taking his shirt off and walking into the bathroom.
I turned by head back to my hands and still quite confused. I went downstairs to play piano and Josh of course joined me. We played together and giving each other that glance every once in a while but that was it. We were in the middle of playing when we were interrupted by Payton.
Payton: "You bitch!" he shouted at me.
He was just wearing a towel around his waist and had an ugly look on his face. Me and Josh's heads whipped around and I gave a confused look.
Nicole: "I'm sorry what?" I said standing up to him.
Payton: "I knew it. I knew you would do it someday." he said pissed.
Nicole: "What the fuck are you talking about?" I said raising my voice.
Payton: "You're a cheater and a liar. And you are pathetic." he said guiding his eyes to Josh.
Payton walked away and me and Josh were in disbelieve. I quickly caught up to him and pushed him, causing him to fall off balance.
Nicole: "Who the fuck do you think you are?!" I said angry now.
Payton: "What?! Your not denying it?" He said.
Nicole: "You have no proof and what me and Josh were doing was nothing." I said trying to convince him.
Payton: "You call that nothing?!" he said screaming.
Nicole: "We were playing the fucking piano you bitch!" I yelled back.
Payton: "So your telling me that's all you did?" he said getting in my face.
Josh: "YES!" he yelled and stood up to Payton.
Josh: "Now, before you wake the whole fucking house up, you should get your facts straight and believe that your girlfriend wouldn't fucking cheat on you!" he said and Payton didn't say another word. Josh walked away.
Payton: "Nicole i-" I cut him off.
Nicole: "Get the fuck out of my face." I said quietly and not making eye contact.
Payton: "Please.." I cut him off again.
Nicole: "I SAID GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE!!" I shouted at him.
He walked away and I ran downstairs in disbelief.
