"And then I woke up in the hospital and my arm had been stitched up and my brother told the nurses that a jar fell off the shelf and hit my arm, they believed it" I said as I inhaled a deep breath before moving my eyes over to Alex's. I twisted my arm around so he could see the scar of where my arm was sewn up.

His eyes were laced with sadness and worry,
"I'm so so sorry Camille" he said quietly shaking his head slowly. I shrugged lightly and looked back down to the floor.

I then felt Alex's warm palm cup the side of my face and move my face to meet his eyes. The skin under his hand burned and went a Scarlett red.

He furrowed his brows gently before moving his hand to the back of my head and pushing me gently into his chest as he cradled me delicately in his arms and placed soft kisses in my hair.

I sniffled a few times as I had a few tears whilst telling him the story, I pulled back from him slowly and nodded towards the doors to my bedroom to gesture us to go back inside. He followed close behind me and close the doors behind him as he stepped inside.

I grabbed my pyjamas off the back of my dressing table chair, which were just my red plaid pyjama bottoms and a tight white noodle-strap vest top. "I'm going to get changed" I called out to Alex behind me as he sat down on the edge of my bed.

"You can grab yourself a pair of my sweatpants from my wardrobe to wear to bed if you'd like..I don't want you sleeping in jeans as that's really uncomfortable I know" I said to him nodding towards my wardrobe in the corner of my room.

Alex stood up slowly "thank you" he said as he strolled over to the wardrobe and opened the doors.

I left the room and headed down the hall to the bathroom to get dressed.

Once I was dressed I placed my used clothes in the wash bin and washed my makeup off and did my skincare and brushed my teeth.

I headed out of the bathroom and glanced down at the watch still on my wrist 2:16 am. God my sleep schedule was fucked.

I walked into my bedroom and immediately turned straight back around as I was met with a very undressed Alex.

"OH! My- I'm sorry...Um yeah" I stuttered as I covered my eyes with my hand and faced the other direction. He chuckled and I heard him pulling on my sweatpants before he said "you can look now" and I could hear his smirk through his voice.

I turned round and my eyes traveled over his body. My grey oversized tracksuit bottoms hugged his waist firmly and sat comfortably on him, he then had no shirt on and had a gold chain hung around his neck, his chest was toned and his muscles were shadowed by the reflection of the moonlight shining in my room.

Holy shit..

"Um..no shirt to bed?" I said clearing my throat and walking over to my side of the bed, I plugged my phone on charge and pulled back the covers.

"Nah hope yer don't mind" he grimaced a little then smirked at me as he then slowly joined me in bed on his side. I pulled the covers up to my chest and let my head sink deep into the pillow, I sighed deeply and rolled onto my side to face Alex.

He sat there fluffing his hair with his fingers, he'd used the bathroom earlier and washed it briefly to get rid of all the product from it so it was now product free and it looked just as good as what it did with product in.

I giggled whilst I watched him tug at his hair and grunt when it kept flopping down over his eyes. He looked over at me and smiled "what?" He asked grinning slightly.

"Nothing..nothing.." I grinned back up at him he pulled the pillows down and shuffled down the bed to lie back and pulled the covers up to his chin. He then rolled onto his side to face me back as we laid there gazing at eachother.

"Thank you again for tonight..I mean it..you have no idea how thankful I am for you Al" I smiled at him as I closed my eyes after they'd begun feeling heavy.

"Al now is it?" He quietly said back to me.
I nudged his leg with my foot under the covers and he chuckled lightly. I closed my eyes again.

"Night Al." I muttered under my breath as I drifted into a deep sleep.

"Night Cami, sweet dreams love" he replied.
