Your POV

I groaned as the sunlight hit my eyes. I grabbed a pillow and put it on my face after rolling into my back.

What happened? I feel horrible.

I took the pillow off my face as realization takes over. I wince as the painful memories of my nightmare and crying fit come back. I hate crying in front of people, but I guess it doesn't matter anymore because they saw me cry yesterday, and not just a small cry, a full blown panic attack of a cry.

You know those days that you don't want to do anything, besides lay around and sleep. Well today was one of those, because I grabbed my pillow and covered my face with a blanket.

I was about to fall asleep again when I heard a knock on my door. "Hey, (y/n), you up?" I heard Ash say from the other side.

"No." I groan.

"Can I come in?" She asks.

"Sure." I hesitantly replied. I groaned, pulling my head out of my protective barrier to the light.

Ash walks in and kneels by my bed. "You okay?" She asks calmly.

"Physically, or emotionally?" I said before burrowing my face into a pillow once more.

"(y/n), I'm serious, you weren't looking so good last night." She says.

"Thanks." I grumble.

"(y/n), I'm just trying to help." She says, almost pleading.

I pull my face out of the pillow. "Hey I'm sorry." I say propping my head up with my arms.

"It's fine, I just want to make sure you're feeling better." Ash said before leaving the room.

"Thanks Ash." I whisper. I just sat in bed for a moment before deciding to actually do something productive with my life.

I get dressed into some less pajama like sweatpants and a teeshirt. I also put my hair in a messy bun (unless it is short) I honestly don't care right now.

I went downstairs to eat some breakfast. As I was eating Ash came up to me once more.

"The others are meeting at a restaurant for lunch to celebrate our show, you feel up to going?" She asked.

"Sure." I say after taking another big bite of my food.

I go back upstairs and change into a semi decent outfit, jeans, cute sneakers and a cardigan. I leave my hair up but fix it so it isn't as messy as before. I just sit in the couch almost falling asleep as I wait. These nightmares are really making me tired.

"Ready to go?" Ash asks.

I simply nodded my head and walk with her eyes half closed from being drowsy.

After what seems like ages we make it to the small restaurant. We both walk inside and see the others sitting at a large table with booths for chairs.

"Hey, (y/n), how are you?" Rosita asks as I sit down in the only open spot; next to Johnny.

I just simply shrug and put my arms on the table placing my head on them shortly later.

"That bad huh." I hear Johnny's comforting voice say right next to me. I remember how Johnny helped me yesterday, even just his arms gave enough comfort to settle me after my intense nightmare.

I nod as I get up and lean into Johnny, his chest is warm as my face leans on it. I can't help but raise my arms to hold the worn leather jacket in my small hands. I took deep breaths and inhaled his scent. It was so calming.

I really hope he doesn't care, because if he thought it was weird then it would be awkward later. "Are you ok with me hugging you?" I whispered.

"U-uh of course!" He says wrapping his arm around me pulling me closer. I'm not sure if I believe him or not but I don't care either way, I'm much too comfortable to let go. Even if if his arms are comforting they still remind me of the nightmare I had last night.

Tears come to my eyes and I pull away sitting back up in the booth, "Sorry." I whispered while sniffling and wiping my tears away.

"Why would you be sorry?" Johnny asked.

I didn't bother to reply, I just wanted to go home. But where is my home, I obviously don't belong here. Tears fall quicker than I can wipe them away. I bet everyone was watching me as tears fell down my ugly face (This is just for the story, all of you guys are beautiful!!!). I couldn't help but think that, I've heard so many people say it its finally got to me.

"Do you wanna leave?" I hear Rosita ask. I just nod my head. "Do you want to go back to Ash's?" Rosita asks another question. Again I just nod my head, I don't want to talk knowing more tears will slip.

"I can take you home, you don't look like you'd want to walk anyway." Johnny says "Is that ok?" He adds. I just simply nod adding a sniffle.

We both start to leave the restaurant, people are probably staring at me for me being different and that I'm crying, but I could care less right now. I just feel like trash, this crying and stressing is making me tired.

I hop into Johnny's truck. I rest my head against the seat behind me.

"Hey, it's okay." Johnny says putting an arm around me. Normally the gesture would probably make me a blushing mess, but now I just sink into him as he gives me needed comfort.

We pull up to Ash's house and I hesitantly get off of Johnny's shoulder to walk inside. I go up the wooden staircase and to the left heading into the bathroom, I turn the cold water in and splash some on my face. I wipe it off with a towel and as I leave I see Johnny standing out by the stairs. He smiles softly and holds his arms, I gladly accept walking up to him and going into his arms.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asks. I just shrug, I want to get my feelings out but I might have another breakdown if I need to go into detail.

"It's fine if you don't, but I'll gladly listen." He says softly. I almost blush as his kind words, words that I accept, I nod and let go walking into my room.

I sit down in the bed and he follows suit. "I don't want to go into detail but I was so scared and alone in my dream and it all felt so real, even the pain, it was so real." I said, sniffling. "I don't know why I'm overreacting so much it's just that it's been hard being here where I don't belong and then I need to get a nightmare that stresses me out" I add.

Johnny's just silent, he's probably a loss for words. I guess he finally finds something to say, "I know what it's like to feel alone, my mum died along time ago. After that my dad was never the same, he was the leader of a gang and did some bad things. He also wanted me to join him, but I didn't want to, I wanted to be a singer. But then he put me as the getaway driver and I failed, so now he's in jail because of me and I've been on my own." He says. Now I'm the one at a loss for words, his life must have been hard. We both just stay silent for a moment, both not knowing what to say.

"Well I promise never to leave you if you don't leave me." I whispered softly. He turns to me and smiles, His smile makes me melt a little bit on the inside 'Gosh darn-it Johnny why do you need to be so handsome!!' my mind screams as I blush.

"I promise." He says only adding to my blush.

"Thanks, for everything." I say, leaning in and hugging him once more.

"It's no problem, really." He says hugging me back. 'Why does he need to be so perfect?!' My mind screams once more. Darn my girl hormones, help me. We both released each other from the hug, I look into his Chocolate Brown eyes as he looks into my (e/c) ones. I can't help but admit my feelings for him have only grown. 'But why would he ever like me?' I look away as that thought comes to mind.

"Thanks for bringing he home, Johnny." I say, getting under the warm covers of my bed.

"Anytime." He said, smiling again.

"Bye, Johnny." I say, quickly kissing his cheek.

"B-bye." He quickly responded leaving the room. 'There you made him uncomfortable again, (y/n)!' I sadly say putting my head down on the pillow with a soft 'thump'.

What I was oblivious to was that Johnny was walking out of Ash's house smiling like a fool with a tomato like blush on his face....
