Dreaming of you
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause Im dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, Ill be holding you tight
And theres nowhere in the world Id rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me and i
Wonder if you know Im there (am I there, am i? )
If you looked in my eyes would you see whats inside
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close but so far
All I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day (wait for the day)
To take the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do
Ill be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, Ill be holding you tight
And theres nowhere in the world Id rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Dreaming of you
Jazz lay on the bed with his hands behind his head. He was so bored and in pain. Every part of him pained for her but he couldn’t tell anyone about this, it was his secret. If his brothers found out… Is it possible to fall in love twice? He shut his eyes and tried to take has mind off her but he couldn’t. His heart ached for her but she wouldn’t be back for another day or so. He pulled out his cell and flipped through his contacts and saw her name. He pushed call needing to hear her voice, Hi, leave a message after the beep. Hi, just wanted to check up on you. I guess I’ll see you tomorrow, love you. He shut his phone and lay on the bed again. Jazz shut his eyes and fell asleep dreaming of her.
A vibrating phone in his pocket woke him up. He saw her name flash across the screen and smiled, Hi. I might be earlier or later, depends on traffic. I love you. I love you too, I guess I’ll see you soon hopefully. She hung up and he set the phone on the nightstand. Right next to the phone was a picture, his wedding day. He smiled as he recalled it perfectly, the way she looked as she came down the aisle, her smile as he took her hand, and how she felt as he kissed her as they were announced husband and wife. Now he couldn’t wait to see her, early or late. His heart ached for her, his wife, his Alice. Stupid shopping had taken her away for four days so far and he would gladly suffer shopping as long as he was with her. His head spun so he slept in his hoodie and sweatpants; never did he sleep in anything but boxers. He let his thoughts wander but they all landed on the same question, Can you fall in love twice? He didn’t know the answer but came up with his own, he had fallen more in love with the same person. He wanted to surprise her or at least do something to show how much he loved her.
Jazz took out a stack of cards and sat on the bed. He wrote the first note, “Sorry I’m not your teddy bear, try this to fill the gap.” He grabbed a teddy bear he had gotten over the years and set it on the hood of her Porsche with the note. On the front it was addressed to ‘Ms. Alice’. In small print he wrote, “Go into the house and get the next note on the stairs.” He went into the house and to the stairs where he put the next note saying, “I’m not your mind reader, hope this can help you with your decisions.” He put a magic 8 ball with it on the bottom step. In small print again were more directions, “Go up to our room but don’t go in.” He taped the next note on the door, “I don’t have amazingly good looks, here’s something for you to look at.” A rose was taped behind of it. In smaller print again were the last directions, “Go into the bedroom and read the last note out loud.” He set the last note on the middle of the bed. “Finally, something I’m good at…” For her to understand he would have to come up behind her right as she said the last word and finish what the note would say.
Jazz sat down on the loveseat in the closet. He had the lights off and the door cracked. His eyes were shut but he was listening really hard for her footsteps. Jazz really hoped this made her happy; he loved her so much it hurt.
After a few minutes he heard the door open and she had the teddy bear, eight ball, and rose in her arms. She spotted the last note on the middle of the bed and plopped down on her stomach to read it. He frowned knowing that this would be harder to surprise her now. He crept out from his hiding spot as she opened the note. Finally, something I’m good at… His lips were at her ear, Loving you. His arms wrapped around her waist as she turned to face him. He kissed her with a passion that had been burning in him for the days she’d been gone. When they broke apart they were both gasping for air, I missed you, he breathed into her ear letting all the things he had felt the past four days rush out to her. She was overwhelmed by how strong these feelings were; never had he missed her so much or had so much love for her. She meant everything to him and he needed her to know that. As he was about to talk his phone vibrated, Hello? Hi Jasper. I’m calling to confirm your— Don’t say what you’re going to say, my wife is right here. Oh I’m sorry, same time and place as yesterday. He said a quick yes and hung up. His eyes met Alice’s and he sensed hurt coming from her. It’s another surprise, I promise. He pulled his lips back to hers but she was reluctant. You’ll find out in 20 minutes. But you need to change. Something wrong with my outfit and choose your words carefully Jasper. She eyed him suspiciously. You are going to be cold is all, even in my arms you’ll freeze. He led her to the closet and she pulled out a long sleeved shirt and jeans. He grabbed a jacket and slipped it around her shoulders; using the jacket to his advantage he pulled her close and kissed her.
In five minutes he drove to the spot that the lady had told him on the phone. The surprise was hidden behind a hill. A woman was waiting and hugged Jazz as they approached. Thanks again for providing me this service on such short notice. Alice was eyeing him the whole time he talked to her but he kept his fingers laced with hers and not the ladies. As they got over the hill a breeze blew and Alice shivered. Jazz wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close to him, Sorry it’s not going to get any warmer when we go up. Her eyes got wide as the surprise came into view, a hot air balloon. So ready to go have some fun? He held her close to him as he waited for her to answer him.
