If I Could Have Just One Wish // Nemi One-Shot
Based off the song "Stay" by Miley Cyrus.
"I love you Demetria." I looked up to see Nick's face, looking down at me as he had his arms wrapped around my waist from behind. We sat on a blanket watching the sun come up on the horizon along the east side. He moved a little and got comfortable on the soft, grainular sand we were sitting on. Moments like this made me know everything would be okay. Everything in the world seemed absolutely perfect. I looked towards the water of the ocean; sparkling as the rays of sun reflected off it. "Dem, you know when I say that, I mean always." I smiled a little at him.
"I do, Nick. I'll always love you too." He leaned down and kissed my forehead and then pulled me closer to him. I'd never foget the times we share like this.
"I just, wanted to make sure you know. For future refrences." I closed my eyes and leaned into him more.
"I'll never forget it." He laughed a little at me.
"Good. That's all I want." I felt his soft lips on mine, kissing me gently, yet with all the passion we shared. I'll always love Nick. Nothing can ruin it.

I woke up in the afternoon after I had finally gotten some sleep. Nick made us stay up all night with eachother so we could see the sunrise. When we came home, he layed down in my bed with me and we both fell asleep. I turned to look where Nick was laying, to see he was gone. Where'd he go? I walked downstairs to the living room where I found my dad. "Demi, what did you and Nick do last night?"
"Nothing." I said. "We stayed up all night with eachother, went to see the sunrise, and then we fell asleep together."
"I saw him leaving the house when I woke up for work. Just wanted to make you two didn't, you know."
"Dad! We didn't have sex!" He laughed a little.
"Just making sure. That was very sweet of him to spend all night with you. I can tell you two really love eachother."
"Do you know where he went then?"
"He left."
"I know that, Dad, I mean to where."
"Demetria, don't you remember he told you he was going to leave?"
"I know he's moving across the country to New York, but that's not until July."
"Demi, sweetie, it is July."
"That means he'll be leaving soon! I have to go to see him!" I started to run to the door, but my dad stopped me.
"Demi, he already left. They left this morning after he left here." I closed my eyes, refusing to believe that.
"No, he's just at his house waiting for me. He's going to tell me goodbye and how much he loves me. Then he'll leave." My father shook his head. "Right?" I felt a lump in my throat and my eyes started to burn. I ran up to my room without looking at my dad. I slammed the door shut and sat against it as the tears started to come. They ran down my face like crazy as I quitely sobbed. I was alone.
'Well I try to live without you,
tears fall from my eyes,
i'm alone and I feel empty,
God I'm torn apart inside...'
How could he just leave without telling me goodbye? He left, just like that. I was right next to him and he couldn't wake me up. Just one more kiss from his soft lips. I wanted to hear his voice; have him tell me everything was going to be okay as he held me tight in his arms. I stood up and ran to my jewlery box. I opened it to find the ring he had bought me. It was from a few years ago and too small for me to wear now. It was one of the last thing I had of him. I took off my necklace and slipped it on the chain. I placed it back over my neck and held onto the ring. Close to my heart. I layed down in my bed, bringing the blanket over me. I hugged my arms close to my chest and just layed there; crying. Nothing would ever be the same with him. I just wanted him back. I'd do anything for him to be back here with me.
'And If I could have just one wish,
I'd have you by my side,
oh, I miss you,
Oh, I need you,'
I picked up my phone and looked at it to see I had a missed voicemail. I listened to the number the message had been left by and smiled when I realized it was Nick's number.
'Well it's good to hear your voice,
I hope you're doing fine,'
"Hey, Babe, I'm sorry for leaving like that. I should've told you I was leaving, but I couldn't put you through that pain. I loved spending all night with you and when I said I love you, I meant it baby. I hope you can forgive me for not saying goodbye, but I felt if I did, it'd ruin everything. We're still together and in love, so there's no point of saying goodbye. I really hope to see you soon. I'm driving to New York right now. I won't stop thinking about you during the days it takes to get there. I love you, Demetria. I want you to-" The last part of the message was a scream and then it ended. I jumped out of bed, letting out a scream of my own.
"Nick!" More tears came as I thought of what could've happened. I quickly punched in the numbers of his mom's number, gripping the phone tight in my hand. "D-deniese? Hi, I was just wondering if I could talk to Nick?" I heard her start to cry a little and my heart started to break.
"I'm sorry, Demi," she said, "there was an accident and Nick didn't-"She started crying even harder and I ended the phone call, dropping my phone to the floor. He didn't make it. Nick was dead. I ran to my desk and started searching for something; anything. My hand found a letter opener and I gripped it tightly, making my knuckles turn white. Nick was everything to me, my whole world. I was nothing without him. I needed him and he wasn't here anymore. There was only one way to fix it. I grabbed a pen and paper and quickly wrote something down. I gripped the letter opener even tighter and brought my hands up to my chest. I closed my eyes and brought it closer to me.
"I love you Nicholas." I plunged it into my chest quickly, right where my heart was located. I fell to the ground, blood puddling all around me. Everything started to go black and then I saw him. He had on his typical smile that grew when he saw me. He was wearing all white and I looked down to see I was wearing a white dress. He put his hand out and I grabbed it, our fingers intertwining. We laughed with eachother as we both ran off, heading towards the brightness in front of us.
'you're the one that I hold on to,
cause my heart would stop without you.'
