After the funeral everyone gathered at our house, supplied with plenty of booze, music and food I went upstairs to clear my head. I decided to shower, it always relaxed me and gave me some thinking time, everyone downstairs wouldn't mind anyway.

I can't remember the last time I was so relaxed, the warm water cascading from the shower head onto my skin felt amazing.

'Do you wanna shower together?' Jimmy asked, wiggling his eyebrows. I'd only just unpacked and sorted everything out from moving in with him. We were laid in our huge new bed, I was laid on my back whilst he lay on his stomach with most of his torso on mine, his arms around me and looking up at me with his sparkling blue eyes.

'Last one to the shower is a loser and has to do the dishes for the next week!' I almost shouted as fast as I could whilst shooting off to the bathroom leaving jimmy to come to sudden realisation of what was happening. I scrambled in the shower, fighting his his long arms trying to pull me away. I turned it on and the first thing that hit us was the freezing cold water. I screeched from the cold soaking my clothes, Jimmy smartly ran to the other end, I shortly followed him. Cold water dripping from me I cuddled him for warmth while the shower heat up. He lifted my chin and placed a kiss on my lips. Things soon got heated, clothes were removed and bodies were explored.

I can still feel his touch on my skin.

'I love you, Aurora.'

It was him! It was his voice, I'm sure of it. It was a faint whisper but it was Jimmy, is this all a dream? I screamed for his name, vigorously searching for any sign of him.

I didn't even realise I had collapsed onto the floor and started crying until Brian burst into the room and grabbed my face, asking if I was okay.

'I... I heard him, he was here, he told me he loved me!' I cried. Brian collected me into his arms and let me cover myself with a towel before setting me on the bed. He looked at me, face covered with worry and concern.

'I know it's a hard time for you, Rory, but you scared the shit out of us back then.'

'But he spoke to me, Brian, it was him.' I smiled at the sound of his voice.

'Rory...' He sighed.

'You don't believe me, do you?' I looked down to my hands and started fidgeting, stroking the 'Jimmy' tattoo on my wedding finger.

'I believe you, I just... You get yourself ready for bed, I'm going to send people home so you can have some peace and rest.'

'Thank you.' I kissed his cheek and have him a cuddle before he left.

I fell into the best sleep I'd had in weeks, I felt Jimmy's presence soothing me to sleep as I was tossing and turning. I heard him singing sweet lullaby's to me and holding me in a warm embrace to settle me down. I dreamt of him too. We were sat on the garden chair swing he was rocking us as I had my feet up and my head in his lap.

'Hello my beautiful cupcake.' He grinned from ear to ear, his scent filled my nose and his voice graced my ears. 'I've missed you, Rory, so fucking much.'

'I've missed you too, Jimmy.' Our lips touched for a glorious amount of time. All while that electric feeling almost paralysed my body. 'Please, promise me you'll never leave again? I love you so much, Jimmy. I don't like doing this without you.'

'Don't leave yet, it's not your time. For as long as I am in your heart I will never, ever leave you. You'll never leave mine. I love you.'

He was slowly fading, fading away infront of my eyes.

'Don't leave me Jimmy, please!' I begged, I cried and I screamed.

'Remember what I said, I love you.'

I woke instantly, wanting to vomit. I rushed to the bathroom and threw up until there was nothing left and simply curled up into a ball, wishing he'd come back to me, I want his arms around me, his lips touching mine and our bodies together.

All I have is the cold tile floor, the faint sound of pouring rain and my own company.
