Read This When You Can T Sleep Novels & Stories

Sleep aid. Normally, I never take anything stronger than ibuprofen. But after everything recently? After the nightmares? After the panic? I don’t trust myself being trapped awake on a plane for seven hours with nowhere to go, especially not after the kidnapping. Especially not in an enclosed space. I stare at the packet for a second before quietly slipping one pill into my mouth and washing it down with some water. Hopefully, this will help me relax. Help me sleep. Help me not to think. My phone buzzes just before I put it on flight mode.

Can't breathe lying down. "This is miserable," I groan at three in the morning. Still awake. Caius is awake too. Reading. "Want me to get you more pillows?" "I have seventeen pillows. More won't help." "Want me to read to you? Might help you relax." "Fine. But nothing boring. I'll fall asleep angry." He reads one of his favorite books. Something about ancient magic theory. His voice is soothing even when the content is dry. I fall asleep somewhere around chapter three.

I put on baby pink silk pajamas with spaghetti straps and shorts on. I go to the kitchen where the bag of my medicines was. I fill a glass full of water and open the bottle. No more than two. I recite in my mind again and again. If I don't eat three I will have nightmares but I need something to knock me out. I want to have a dreamless sleep. But I can't do this to myself. YOU NEED SLEEP VICTORIA! The voice in my head says. But I can't take two. THEN GOOD LUCK RELIVING THOSE MEMORIES!

I also arranged my belongings for tomorrow before going to bed. It's already 9:40 pm. For me it's still too early at this time. Sometimes, I just read and mostly on facebook and watch EXO and NCT videos because I don't easily fall asleep and my insomnia always attacks. I always drink milk but it still doesn't work. I justudt scrolled on my messenger when I noticed the man I had chatted with earlier. James Von Waltridge :Sorry, but I can't understand what you're saying. Seen Jane Valdez

Gradually I sat up, still unable to catch sleep as I dropped my pillow on my lap and squeezes trying to get out of the frustration in my mind but at least it was better than nothing because that was all I could do right now in this situation. unable to catch any sleep I got up from my bed and decided to do some magnets training at least if I was not going to be able to sleep I should have let you be able to turn my body in some other way maybe if I trained hard enough I would become so tired and exhausted and I will eventually go to sleep.

I was not tired, but I wanted to push this sinful night where he could push himself on me. I remembered the trick my sister once told me. “Think of something undesirable. A sin you wanted to commit badly, and try to live that moment. It will help you sleep.” I never understood these words of hers, but it was time to follow it. I closed my eyes as my mind took me to my farm and my shop. “Shut your mind, think of something you wanted to have badly, which seems impossible,” the devil in my mind snuggles the thought of thinking something sinister.

But all our wishes don't come true, do they? I strip off my clothes and let the cold water hit my back, calming my nerves and soothing my bones. The bed dips when I climb on it after changing into my favorite pajamas and putting my phone on my nightstand. Current mood? Dim lights, soft songs, eyes shut, a pillow to hug and music caressing my tired soul. I'm halfway into a deep slumber when I hear my phone vibrate with a message. Sluggishly, I pick it up and unlock the password, reading the sentence on my screen with half opened eyes.

Jo Tum Na Meri Bahon Mein Main To So Nahi Sakta If you are not in my arms, I can’t sleep. Khuda Ne Tujhko Diya Mujhe Tujhe Main Kho Nahi Sakta God has already given you to me. I can’t afford to lose you right now. Suddenly I heard this song and my sleep broke. Who the hell is playing music at this time? I rubbed my eyes and saw it's 3 am. I looked around my room and suddenly saw a shadow. With a jerk I got up from my bed and in a second I was on my feets.

“You have to admit that we can do some pretty awesome things” “Hmm. I will get a couple of hours of shut eye. I can’t even remember when I last slept, and it is gonna be a long night”. I jawn and slump down on one of the beds. I hear one of the other beds groan, and then I am gone.

He has been nothing short of cold since our paths crossed again in that conference room, so his doing this would only make me confused. I close the email with pursed lips and a sigh. "This can wait till tomorrow. I have to get some sleep before this eats at my night, and I look like a zombie by tomorrow." I whisper to myself as I lie back and close my eyes. It does not take long for sleep to take over, as I surrender to its warm hands with a pleased sigh. -------
