Chapter 123

  Dakota Delaune

  I slipped away from Angelo's arms and turned to see him sleeping soundly. I can't sleep even though he's beside me, I was scared that everything turns out to be a dream.

  I sat on the edge of the bed trying to calm myself down.

  I'm so afraid to even close my eyes for too long. I found myself crying silently and trying to tell myself that he's not going anywhere.

  "Dakota?" Angelo woke up. He kneeled in front of me looking at me worried.

  "What's wrong?" He asked as he pulled me into a hug.

  "What's wrong? Tell me." He said as he rubbed my back trying to calm me down.

  "I can't sleep, I'm so scared that you're going to leave me when I'm sleeping." I said.

  "I won't leave you, I promise." He said as he pulled away. He wiped my tears and gave a peck on my lips.

  "I'm not going anywhere, I'm right here.. I'm going to be there when you open your eyes in the morning." He held my hand trying to assure me and I shook my head.
