Light in the Darkness - Nico X Reader

Chapter 26, Him

I materialised on a park bench under a tree. Soft sunlight shone down from high above, leaves falling lazily from the large branches and twigs of the ancient tree. *start playing*

Warmth spread through my fingers as I grew aware of the hand holding mine.

I missed you dearly,

Thought I was nearly there forever,

At last together,

Is our time fleeting?

Is even meeting a healthy idea or am I getting to near?

I voiced out my thoughts. I knew, that this person next to me, is in fact, Nico. Dreaming.

Don't try to fight it,

You're here for tonight,

And I'll be waiting for you until we meet again.

His melodious voice sang along.

I leaned against him, savouring each and every moment. His arm encircled my waist.

I know it's scary,

But don't be weary,

If we don't have that long,

Let's not waste it feeling wrong.

This isn't the end, I'm your lifelong friend,

Sure it's been a while, but I'll be here when you smile.

I looked over at him. His familiar smile lit up the place, his warm eyes shone with relaxation.

Don't try to fight it,

You're here for tonight,

And I'll be waiting for you until we meet again.

"Nico, do you know where you are?"

"I don't know, I only know that right now, I'm here with you,"

He leaned down and kissed my forehead lightly.

"I miss you so much," I manage.

"I miss you too,"

Would you mind staying?

It's getting late, but I'll visit you soon,

So just try to get through,

My eyes brimmed with tears. He held on tighter.

And don't try to fight it,

You're here for tonight,

And I'll be waiting for you until we meet again.

I'll be waiting for you, until we meet again.

"Stay strong, I love you," He whispered.

We shared a passionate kiss. Our lips moving as one. He sighed in the middle, and moved his hands down my waist, pulling us closer together.

"I'll see you in your dreams," he melted into smoke, leaving me alone on a bench, under the trees.
