River slept for a long time, dreams of everything that had happened and warped fantasies tripped across his mind. The images of how he could have come back, to her gone, crying at her funeral, the blame from her mom. Alternative realities where everything was dark and miserable. Wyngs was the only thing that kept the sunshine in his life. To know what he did tortured his dreams, taunted him. His conscience telling him all these awful things that could have happened. There wasn't much time, he ran back through his dreams, as though turning back time, and how different things could have been had he stayed the first time he came back. But after each time, he'd come to the same grizzly ending, loosing the one person he promised he would always protect. After seven or eight times his dreams going through different horrific ways of him letting go, or loosing her, he jolted awake. Drenched in sweat. He looked around and realized Wyngs was still here.<br/><br/>He looked down on her and smiled as she slept so peacefully. He kissed the top of her forehead and gently stroked her hair. He looked at the time on the bedside clock it was 6:34am he sighed deeply, all River was glad of was the nights occurrences were just bad dreams, and they could never come true. He thought coming back would stop the nightmares, but evidently, it was still going to take some getting used to. He wrapped his arms around Wyngs, and pulled her close against his body. "I will always love you, I could never love another the way I love you Wyngs. You're everything to me... I just wish I knew how to tell you" he murmured almost silently as not to wake her up. She looked so innocent, and vulnerable whilst she slept. All River could think about was how beautiful, and peaceful she really could be.
