Chapter 246: The Dream
Jules’ pov
Low sounds filtered through my mind, weaving through my brain until I was blinking my eyes open. At first, I thought they were all a figment of my imagination but when the low sounds continued to echo around, I rolled out of the bed I had been sleeping in and carefully made my way out of the room. As I got closer to the door, the voices grew louder and familiar, and slowly, I froze in a single spot, unable to move as shock and confusion engulfed every part of my brain.
My hands shook when I pushed the door open and at once, the breath got knocked out of me when I sighted two of my siblings bickering.
My entire body shook and my lips wobbled.
"D- dew?" I whispered, disbelief clogging my lungs and i watched with bated breath as he stopped arguing and turned around. As soon as his eyes locked with mine, a smile stretched across his face. He was in front of me the next moment, hands reaching up to ruffle my hair like he normally does.
"Hey, little brother, still short as ever." He cooed and on a normal day, that would have made me angry. But right now, warmth shot through my veins as I burst into tears and flew into his waiting arms. I clung to him as I cried and he shushed me while consoling me.
"I missed you so much." I whispered as he kept on trying to get me to stop crying.
I had missed Dew so much, way more than I ever could have imagined. He was the fourth born of our family, and the one directly before our only sister, Anya.
As he gently tugged me out of his arms, a sad smile was across his face as he ruffled my hair once again and this time, I leaned into the touch while my heart ached.
