Cordelia

15.

-CAIDEN POV-

I woke up to Cora shaking she was sweating and she started screaming

"NO STOP PLEASE KILL ME INSTEAD," she yelled out I started shaking her so I can wake up she started hitting me

"damit Cora wakes up you're having a nightmare," I said while shaking her she finally opened her eyes and she threw herself into my arms

"shh it okay I'm here," I said while rubbing her back and she cried into my chest the way she clung on to me she fits perfectly in my arms

"I'm sorry," she whispered and I pulled away and grabbed her face

"you have nothing to be sorry for," I said she looked beautiful even sitting here a crying mess she looks beautiful her big blue eyes and her full lashes that were wet from her tears

"but I woke you up with my bullshit," she whispers while messing with her fingers

"it okay you could wake me up with your bullshit all the time," I said and I wiped her tears

"I probably look a mess sitting her crying," she said and I gave her a small laughed

"no you look pretty," I said which was true when I first saw her she looked beautiful I try to avoid her but she was always there, and then the fact I can't seem to get her out of my mind

I know I'm gonna hurt her and I try to stay away from her I have demons and I dont want to drag her down with me I dont want to turn out like my father I want to better but it seems like my father has a rope tied to me and he dragged me down with him

I looked over to the clock and saw it was four in the morning I laid back down and I pulled Cora against me she was hesitant at first but then she laid her head on my chest she doesn't need to be alone right now

"We dont have to talk about it," I said I didn't want to make her feel like she had to tell me

"Okay," she said I traced circles on her back and I saw goosebumps rise all over her I mentally smirk to know I have an effect on her

"do you ever wonder what life would be like if you didn't do something," Cora asked me

"yea it has you thinking well if I didn't fuck up things would be different," I said

"I feel like everything happen for a reason," I said and she laughed a little

"yea everything does happen for a reason but it never the right reason," she said and I stayed quiet I wonder what happened to her she seems so stronger in front of everyone else but what is she hiding

we talked more and got to know each other a lot it was adorable to watch her as she tried to stay um and talk to me even though she was clearly falling asleep but she didn't want to go to sleep until she saw the sunrise

"it beautiful," she said as she walked to the window and watch the sunrise

"It is now that you saw the sunrise go to sleep," I said while getting up and dragging her to the bed

"my parents are gonna kill me," she said as she laid down wow she thinking about her parents now I'm thinking about my life there no way in hell her family gonna let me live there gonna put a bullet in my head

"yea I guess we're both dead," I said and she laughed

"I'm dead but I'm alive," she said while making some silly face and I laughed at her I feel so connected to her but this cannot happen we cant get close

"you should go to sleep," I said and she rolled her eyes

"no I'm okay  talking to you Mr grumpy is actually fun," she said and I threw a pillow at her

"hey idiot," she yelled at me and threw it back but I caught it

mhm im positive she acts like the idiot half the time

she laid down deeper into the bed and turn to me and I follow her actions we just looked into each other eyes and didn't say a word but it seems like we said thousands it wasn't long until she drifted off to sleep

dont get me wrong Cora is the girl everyone wants she beautiful smart um I can't say she very nice but I think that what I like about her she seems so clueless too, people would say she perfect and she tries to hold up that image off her being perfect but I can see past it

I watch her sleep even though feel like a complete creep but I can't move my eyes away from her this is creepy but I want to enjoy it since this is the last time we would ever be like this

it for the better for me and her I dont want to fuck up her life, even more, I need to stay away from her even though I feel some pull towards her it just better like this
