       I have decided that I will pull an all nighter. It's the only way, really. Joe can't find out that I wake up screaming every night because of that same dream. Over and over again...
I guess I will tell him eventually, just... not now. He will most probably want to find more details, or get scared or God knows what.
After we get to my apartment, I show Joe his room, say goodnight and...
"Hey." he calls.
"Mhm?"
"Thank you for letting me sleep at your place. It means a lot."
"No problem! It's good having you around. I've missed you."
I pull him in a tight embrace and smile. I've really missed him. Thousands or memories suddenly fill my mind...

— flashback starts —

Staring at the stars from the rooftop...

"Taylor?"
"Yeah?"
"Where do you see yourself in ten years?"
"Living in Paris, married to a romantic poet, painting for a living..." Taylor replied sarcastically.
"And where are you planning to find a romantic poet?"
"Oh, Paris is filled with them!"
Joe laughed.
"What about you, Joey?"
"Hm?"
"What do you think you'll be doing?"
"I don't know... graduated from medicine school, moved to New York, with the love of my life..."
"You'll have all that. I know you will."

— flashback ends —

I let go of Joe and go in my room. This will be a long night.
I sit on my bed and turn the lights off. I decide to text Abigail, she's probably still awake.

T: You still up?
A: yup, watching a movie

I close my phone and lay on my bed. Abigail is my only friend. And she's also the only person besides my family who knows about my secret. Oh, and Harry. He knows too...

(Author's note: you guys are probably confused, but you'll find out soon about all of it, and about Harry too. )

What a day...

Taylor falls asleep while reminiscing...
