Is It Meant To Be?

Chapter 4

Dean's P.O.V

Empty. That's how I feel now. I haven't my left room for 3 days, I know Mum and AJ are worried about me, I hear them talking about me. They've tried to get me to come out but I haven't. Demi has rang my phone countless times and text me constantly but I've simply ignored her.

There was a knock on my bedroom door, I ignored it until a voice said "Dean, it's Ally". I slowly got up and opened the door and let her in. She looked at me and gave me a sad smile. "How are you feeling?" She asked softly. "All considering, I'm okay, I guess" I groaned my throat dry. Her facial expression changed once she heard my voice, it went from sad to concerned. "You look shattered." she said softly. I nodded my head and said, "I haven't really slept much in 3 days" I admitted.

"Here, drink" She said giving me a glass of water. I gladly took it and had a couple of sips out of the glass, as soon as the water hit my throat, I instantly felt a bit better. "Thanks" I said gratefully my voice back at normal sound. "You really should get some sleep" She said.

"I can't-" I tried to say but she cut me off.

"Do it, I won't leave until you're asleep" She exclaimed sternly.

"Ok" I said defeated. I can't argue with Ally. I laid down on my bed and shut my eyes. She sat down next to me and stroked my hair, I'm not going to lie it felt so soothing, "Thanks for this Ally" I said softly. "Don't worry about it babe, just go sleep" She said softly.

"Love you" I said slowly drifting off.

"Love you too" I heard her say. 5 minutes later I was asleep.

Ally's P.O.V

As soon I knew he was asleep. I softly kissed his cheek and quietly left his room. I went downstairs to speak to his Mum. "How is he?" She asked.

"He's doing alright, he's had a drink and he's actually gone to sleep" I replied. I then sighed sadly, "I didn't think it was that serious, he seems lost."

"The only thing we can do is be there for him and hope that he finds his way back so to speak." She said resting a hand on my shoulder. "But thank you for being here."

It's not a problem, he's my best friend" I said a smile on my face.

"He loves you like his own" She said a smile forming.

"I know and I love him too" I replied honestly. "I've got to get going, I wish I could stay."

"It's alright, I'll let you know when he wakes up"

"Please do, see you later" I said leaving his house. I rang Austin to come and pick me up. "Hey Austin, can you pick me up from Dean's house?"

"Yeah, I'll be 5 minutes" He said chuckled hanging up. Sure enough 5 minutes later he turned up, I got in to his car and we set back off to our house. "How is he doing?" He asked.

"He's alright, I left him after he fell asleep" I replied sighing.

"What's wrong?" He asked looking at me as he approached a red light.

"I hate seeing him like this" I said sadly.

"I know and I do too" He replied focusing on the road. "I'm happy he's feeling a bit better though". We got back to our house about 10 minutes later. I greeted Mum and Dad and went up to my room. A couple of hours had passed when I received a text message, I looked at the ID and seen that it was Dean's Mum texting me saying that Dean was awake. I gave him 10 minutes before texting him.

Ally: I thought I told you to go to sleep.

Dean: I can't sleep during the day, you should know that.
