Nick slowly climbed up the stairs to his room, removed his jacket and threw it on to a chair. He flicked on the radio and laid down on his bed, finally letting the tears flow freely. He tried to clear his mind and finally fell into a less than peaceful sleep. He awoke to a soft melody filling his room. Realising it was the radio he slowly got off of the bed, still wearing his crumpled funeral clothes. He stopped as the lyrics from the song reached him.
If I’m gone when you wake up, please don’t cry
And if I’m gone when you wake up it’s not goodbye
Don’t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress
Remember me, remember me, ‘cause I’ll be with you in your dreams
Ohh, I’ll be with you
If I’m gone when you wake up, please don’t cry
And if I’m gone when you wake up don’t ask why
Don’t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress
Remember me, remember me, ‘cause I’ll be with you in your dreams
Don’t cry I’m with you, don’t cry I’m by your side
Don’t cry I’m with you, don’t cry I’m by your side
And though my flesh is gone
I’ll still be with you at all times
And though my body is gone
I’ll be there to comfort you at all times
If I’m gone when you wake up, please don’t cry
And if I’m gone when you wake up it’s not goodbye
Don’t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress
Remember me, remember me, ‘cause I’ll be with you in your dreams
Ohh, I’ll be with you
I don’t want you to cry and weep
I want you to go on livin’ your life
I’m not sleepin’ an endless sleep
‘Cause in your heart you all have good times
If I’m gone when you wake up, please don’t cry
And if I’m gone when you wake up it’s not goodbye
Don’t look back at this time as a time of heartbreak and distress
Remember me, remember me, ‘cause I’ll be with you in your dreams
I’ll be with you in your dreams.
'With You In Your Dreams' by Hanson
Nick knew the words were meant for him and wiped away his tears. He looked at the picture next to his bed. Ella’s face beamed out at him, causing his heart to ache even more. He took the picture to the window and looked out at the new day. He could still feel her presence and he smiled for the first time in days. As he opened the window to inhale the scent of the fresh morning he began to sing the song softly to himself.
Okay, I bet you all hate me for doing that, right? I’m sorry but I don’t believe that things always end happily… and this is one of my stories that didn’t. I promise that soon I will have a story that turns out perfect! Anyway please send me feedback people. Thank you for reading!
