[Jaime]

I woke up in the middle of the night, feeling sad. I had the nightmare.

Again.

I needed help, but my only help couldn't save me.

So you tell me, "who saves the hero, when the hero is no longer able to save himself?"

No longer was I able to sleep. No longer was I able to breathe. He took everything that was me from me.

It was like a bleep, no longer obsolete. He was everything I needed to be.

After a long time of contemplating, I decided to just get up and deal with the nightmare myself.

After all, it was already beginning.

Tony was married to Sam, Mike had Ally, and now, Vic had Rachel. All that was left was for everyone to decide that they didn't want to be in the band anymore . And that's what I feared the most.

I slowly walked to the front and sat down. I dug around for the remote, eventually finding it in between the cushions.

There was nothing on tv, so I just left it on the movie "The Proposal."

How ironic.

---

The movie was at the scene where they're at the immigration office and the guy is telling them that if their engagement is fake the guy goes to jail, and she gets deported back to Canada, when I heard someone get out of their bunk and go into the bathroom.

Seconds later, the same person came to the front, and just my fucking luck. Guess who it was?

That's right.

Vic.

He was in his stripped pjs, which made him look like a little kid, it was totally adorable. He was rubbing his eyes and he had messy bed hair.

'What are you doing up so late?' he asked, sleep trailing his voice.

'I uh I had that nightmare again.' I said, not taking my eyes off the screen. 'Sorry, didn't mean to wake you up.' I said before turning the tv off and getting up.

As I was walking back to my bunk, Vic grabbed my arm, spun me around and pressed his lips to mine.

Sparks flew, and I immediately shut my eyes. Our lips perfectly moulded together, it's like they were made for each other.

I pulled away, feeling good but shocked.

'W-What was that?' I asked.

'I just really wanted to kiss you. I've been holding it for a long time. I need you.'

'You need me?' I questioned.

'Yes. Like I know you think I love Rachel, but I don't. I'm still deeply in love with you Jaime. I just want things to go back to how they were, when we were together. I miss that so much.'

'Oh.'

'Yeah, and maybe I was thinking.'

'That's a first.' I commented.

'Haha. Well I was thinking that while I gathered the guts to break up with Rachel, that we could uh maybe be in a uh a secret relationship. Maybe?' he stuttered.

I've never seen this side of Vic before. Him actually willing to cheat on someone. Hmm..

Part of me wanted to say yes right then and there, but Rachel... Then again she was the one that convinced him that he was better off with her.
