Almost like you. Frank Morrison x reader (dbd)

Chapter 25

(Y/n)'s POV

I feel a hand travel through my hair which makes me wake up. When I open my eyes, I see that familiar tattoo on Frank's neck. A smile forms on my lips as I stretch my arms. "Morning." I hear him say which made me feel happy and wanted. "Morning. Did you sleep well?" I ask him while I wrap my arms around him. He chuckles and presses his lips against my forehead. "I did. I'm sorry if I have been little distant. There was just something else in my mind."

I nod and turn to face him. He seemed to be little... different. Like there was something he wasn't telling me. "It's okay to have some secrets you know. But if you want to talk about something, I'm here." He smiles at me and nods. "I remember that. But this is a project I'm working on with my friends." I nod as a smile forms on my lips. It was good that he was focusing on his own work. He seemed to be getting better and better by every passing day.

"We should get ready for today even if my alarm hasn't gone off yet." I sit up from the bed and stretch my back. He does the same and looks around the room. "Sure. Are you going somewhere?" I smile at him as I turn off the alarm. "Matthew wanted to get some breakfast with me and Hope so I have to go there." He doesn't seem to be happy but he just nods. "I need to meet up my friends before the classes since Susie had something going on."

I feel my smile melt away. "Is she okay? Does she want to talk with me?" He thinks for a moment but then he just shakes his head. "Nah. I think she will be okay in a couple of days." He takes his shirt and puts it on. I wanted to ask another question but there was an angry knock on the door. We both turn to look at the doorway. I don't know who it could be because there was no way that anyone was awake at this hour, especially not going around some neighborhood.

"I'll get that." I say as I stand up from the bed. I was wearing my nightgown but I still put on my bathrobe. I make my way to the front door. I was little freaked out because I didn't except anyone to visit me at this hour. When I opened the door, Eric makes his way in the house. "What are you doing here?!" I snap at him but he only glares at me. "We need to talk." He closes the door behind himself while he was still staring at me. I start to feel nervous when he was like that.

He walks over to my couch and sits down. He takes in a deep breath and leans his head on the back of the couch. "It seems like Hunter just took off and took my money with him." It was strange to see him be that... broken. His look was little sad but I still kept my distance. "And you are looking for him from here?" He sends me a look that I can't read. It was like a mix between angry, confused, and sad. It was weird to see him like that. "Now it's not time to be funny. If we don't get that money, your kid will be gone and I would be in pieces somewhere so some fucking forest creatures can have a lunch."

I sigh out and sit next to him. "I just don't understand why you had to pull me into this?" He turns to look at me and but then turns to look away. "I don't know. I guess that you're really the only one who I can trust." To say that I wasn't surprised that it would have been a lie. He trusts me more than his friends? That can't be true. I send him a look that said bullshit but he shrugged again. "I... I just feel like that. I know that you won't hurt me."

He puts his hand over my shoulder and gives it a little squeeze. This was getting weird but I ignored it. "Listen. I know I have been an asshole and dragged you into something you really don't belong but can we at least be friends after this." I didn't know what to answer. It is true that I hate him but I don't know if I had the forgiveness somewhere in my heart. But I know that I couldn't trust him just yet. "I don't know. Sarah hates your guts and I don't trust you. I also have to protect Hope."

He lets go of me and turns to look at the hallway. I follow his gaze only to see Frank and Hope. Frank seemed to be annoyed while Hope was confused. "What the fuck is he doing over here?" Eric snarls as he stands up from the couch. I follow his movements and stand in front of him. "He spend the night here." I say to him while he was glaring at Frank. "Does Clive know that you're here?" He snaps at Frank who only shrugs his shoulders.
