this one is a sad one.. thought of it last night

nick's pov

i was walking in the school hallway,
i tried to keep my head down, god i missed him

i said as i remember how awful the car crash he was in

i stare at me shoes, my eyes puffy from crying

all a sudden, someone rapped their arms around me, huh? who was this

i assumed it was tara or something

but no

these arms feel too familiar
these arms belong to a boy,

maybe tao?
no, can't be, he doesn't have curly hair

i looked up to see, him standing, and looking at me with a cute,lovely smile, wait what?

didn't he die in a car crash?

"c- charlie?"

he looked at me, his face filled with confusion

"are you okay nick?"

he asks, what's happening?
i look at him one more time, just to make sure
this was really him,

this was a dream ("hello?")

this isn't real ("nick?")

but he was right here ("hello? nick??")

even if this is a dream, I'm gonna make the most of it-

my thoughts got cut off

"what?"

"nick what's wrong?"

i look at him, tears fill my eyes

"woah.. hey, what's wrong? you can tell me"

i wipe my tears away, you have to make the most of this nick

"it's nothing char"

"you're crying nick, this isn't nothing"

"i know.. i just missed you"

he looked at me, kissed my checks and chuckled

"we saw each other last night"

"so? i can't miss my boyfriend now?"

i say, putting on a fake smile, i knew this was a dream

how else would you explain charlie in front of me

i close my eyes

breath in

what?

it's silent...

i grunt, i feel something soft underneath me
where was i?
i open my eyes once again, a ceiling

not just any ceiling, it was my ceiling

it was a dream, it wasn't a surprise

charlie was dead...
charlie wasn't here..
and all of that was a dream,

i didn't even get to tell him i love him,

"come back..." i say, knowing well enough it won't happen

i was devastated, tears once again fill my eyes, i try to keep silent, since it's almost four in the morning

i reach my hand out to grab his favorite pillow,

the one that would somehow, always smell like watermelon

i snuggled into my blanket, hugging this watermelon scented pillow

"i really miss you char.."

i said as i fell back to sleep
