Our feet hit the pavement silently as Jeremy and I walk hand in hand. We've been out for almost the whole day.

I got a text at about four from my mom that they're leaving and that they had business to take care of. I'm just really sad that I couldn't see them off.

But Jeremy and I were at that spot of his again. And let me tell you it looks so much better when its bright and shining out.

The snow is still there on the ground, and the water has frozen but it still looks absolutely gorgeous.

"Okay,  I spy with my little eye. Something... red." He says.

My eyes wander around. Looking for something red. Which I dont see at first, until I squint my eyes.

"Oh, oh. That baby's stroller." I say almost jumping two feet high.

I slide a bit and land on my butt.

Jeremy's laughter fills my ears as he offers me a hand and pulls me up.

"You're cute." Is all he says.

I smile and look up at him. He also smiles down at me.

"Want to go watch a movie or something?" He asks.

"Yea, okay. " I say.

We walk to the campus where we decide to head to my dorm. He lies on his back while my back snuggles into his.

His hand drapes over my waist.

"Oh, let's watch Pitch Perfect." I ask excitedly.

"What's that?" He asks.  A loud gasp rips from my throat. 

"You dont know what Pitch Perfect is? You have to watch it. " I say, seriously urging him.

He sits quietly as we watch the Bella's do their thing.

As the movie reaches the end, I feel myself falling asleep.

And then I retire to my dreams.

"Hey" a weird man whom I dont know says to me.

"Hi?" I say as a question not as a statement.

"Uh, are you okay mam' you dont look okay." He tells me.

"Oh, I'm okay thank you." I tell him

"No, you have a blue eye and your face is swollen." He says.

I pat my fingers over my face and flinch in pain when I do that. Where could I have gotten those.

"Do you need any help? I could help you I'm a police officer." He tells me.

"Oh, no thank you." I tell him.

"But you're a victim of abuse. Your friend Allyson Ross sent me here to check on you." He says.

And just like that I wake up. A victim of abuse? Allyson Ross?

In my dream was Allyson married? To Colton Ross? What the hell type of dream was that?

When I look beside me, Jeremy is sleeping next to me. His mouth is slightly open and light snores are escaping his lips.

I smile and leave a peck on his lips.

I stand up from the bed and stretch my tired bones. I then walk into the kitchen.

Is there something we could eat. Oh here's frozen pizza, I could eat that.
