Ed Sheeran IMAGINE "Nightmare" ENJOY
You're happily asleep in his arms until he starts to squirm. You can feel him moving uncontrollably. Now you are uncomfortable since he had moved his position and you were on his chest. You look up at him and find an angry expression on his face. Even in the darkness, you are allowed to see it. His eyes, still closed. Then he mumbles something you couldn't really understand. Worried, you take his hand and squeeze it tightly, hoping it'd calm him down a bit. He stops, but only seconds later, he starts to move again. Then he groans loudly and it startles you.
"I could kill you," he slightly mumbles. After you had heard those four words leave his lips, you panic. 'He's probably just having a bad dream. It's okay, he'd never say that to you,' you say in your head as your eyes start to fill with tears. He stops moving around, but now he won't stop with the violent comments. You begin to shiver, but not from the coldness. You didn't feel a bit cold at all, since you are safe and warm in his arms, but yet, unsafe from the words falling from his mouth and hitting you, hard. You're upset, disgusted, and surprised that he, himself would be saying such cruel words. You've always thought of Ed as a loving, caring person.
Unsure of what to do, you allow the tears to run down your cheeks. After a few minutes, you decide it's best to try and wake him. Knowing everything would be back to normal once his eyes opened. "Ed?" You whisper as you gently shake his shoulder. "Ed ... Ed," you were about to repeat his name until he let out a long, loud sigh.
Thinking he's awake, you smile. You lean closer to his face, you kiss him softly on the cheek, but when your lips touch his skin, your eyes widen. "Fuck you," he replies as you quickly back away from him. More tears are forming in your eyes and continue to fall down your face. 'That's it. I've heard enough. He needs to wake up. I have to wake him up!' You thought. "Ed!" You shout, not caring that he's asleep. "Ed, wake up! Please, wake up. This isn't you- this isn't fair. Bloody hell, Ed, wAKE UP!!" You cry as you cup his face in your hands. Then all of a sudden, he again groans. You wish you could understand what was happening. "Ed?" You ask, now whispering once again. But before you could say anything else, both his hands grab hold of your throat, and he squeezes tightly. It all happened too fast, you barely realized what he was doing. "Ed!" You scream as you look at him. You're so confused because his eyes are still shut. 'What the hell?!' You thought. "Ed, stop!" You can barely say, because his grip only got stronger and stronger. You're now having difficultly breathing. Your eyes slowly start to close, but you use all the energy you have left to keep them open. Your vision starts to blur, and you can't feel any strength left in your body. You wonder if you're still even alive. Through watery eyes, you see bright blue eyes staring back at you.
//Ed's POV// As I open my eyes, I see her breathing heavily. She's fighting to keep her eyes open. I then realize she's choking ... because of me. I quickly pull my hands away from her neck and cover my face. Then I push my hands away from my face as I realize ... my hands ... with these hands, they were wrapped around her neck- MY hands ... I can never look at myself the same way.
//Back To You// As you feel Ed's hands leave your lungs, you gasp for air. 'Thank God I'm alive,' you thought. 'I was so sure that I was close to death.' You turn to look at Ed, and you see that he's awake ... and crying? You can't really tell because his face is buried in his arms. 'Did he not know that he was hurting me?' After you had finally caught your breath, you flinch as Ed throws his arms around you. "Y/N, I'm so sorry! I truly am. I love you so much. I'm terribly sorry," he cries in your hair. You don't know what to do or think for a second or two. You're just incredibly happy to hear Ed's real, sweet voice, and for the warm hug. "Oh, Ed." You laugh. Then he looks into your eyes, he's confused. You try and smile to lighten the mood, but he now looks worried. "Y/N, do you realize that ... I ... I almost k-k" he again broke out into tears, unable to say the word, and too afraid to. "Ed, it's fine," you say, trying to cheer him up, but it only caused him to become more worried and confused. "Fine?? It's fine?! No, it's NOT fine. What would've happened if I didn't let go? Or worse, if I woke up and wondered why you didn't wake up!" He cried as he covered his face with his hands again. "But Ed, I'm okay now. You let go and I'm fine. Please," you shook your head as you spoke. "Ed." You placed your hands over his trembling fingers and gently pulled them away to see his face. His eyes, a dark red, but still beautifully blue. You could instantly get lost into them. Then one of his hands lift your chin as his other hand is placed onto your back to pull you closer towards him. "I don't know how I'd ever be able to forgive myself. I love you so much, Y/N." He whispers as he looks deeply into your eyes, then down at your lips, repeatedly. You can't help but smile as you see his face coming closer to yours. You blush before he even gets to kiss you. Once your lips touch, chills run up and down your spine. :)
