Tim pov
I cant sleep at all. Not because of insomnia but lucy. That damn woman i dont know what it is but lately she has been hoarding my mind. All i think about is her and then tonight when she called i was happy she asked me but worried about her nightmares. I wonder if she can sleep. Maybe i should take up on her offer and go sleep in her bed. What? tim no! She was your boot. Then again 'was' your boot... tim! Im totally over thinking for no good reason. She offered and im jist taking it

I silently got up and walked to her bedroom door i knock and hear nothing. I quitley open the door and see the bed emty "lucy?" I whisper "yeah" i hear from her bathroom. Crap. "What is wrong are you ok?" She asked. I then realized how dumb this is but its to laye to turn back now "umm i.. i coulnt sleep so i was just wondering if you, you know also couldnt" i sound pathetic "actualy i cant aswell" she walks over to her bed and she gestures for me to climb in i slowly make my way there and do so. "Tell me tim, why cant you fall asleep" see asked as we both sit up against the headboard "i dont know cases and the stress that i might get promoted to sargent and all the test. I geuss its a bit nerve racking" she gasped and turns to me "wait so your telling me im sitting next to the next sargent! Oh my gosh why didnt you tell me congrats!" She yells and jumps on me to hug me. Um this is a bit to intiment for me to not react badly. I hug her back and then she lets go. "Thats amazing you would be a great sarge" "thank you" "so tell me luc why cant you sleep still the nightmare?" "Not anymore i geuss its just... i dont know if i want to date again not after that all happend but at the same time i really want a man in my life and children when im older but im to scared to you know date again so i dont know its all so confusing" oh um i dont know how to reply to that "listen im not one of those feelings type of person but im sure you will want to get back in the dating game soon its just the trauma you have now that holds you back but with time it will fade i promise" "wow for a "not feelings type person' you did great, and thanks that means a lot" she starts to lower her self on the bed and i thought that this is my que to leave but then "no stay maybe we both can fall asleep with another presance near us" "ok good night luc and wake me up if get another nightmare" "i will and i know i said this already but thank you so much for coming tonight i dont know what i would have done without you here. Good night" she turns off the bed side lamp and turns facing away from me. Damn those words just pulled very deeply on my heart strings. I also lay down on my side facing her and fall asleep rather quickly than what i normally do. Must be her presance
