"Why can't you sleep?" I ask a simple question.
Silence, it only lasts a minute or two but feels like ages.
"Because everytime I close my eyes I see you leaving my bed in the middle of the night, I hear you breathing through the telephone, your sile...

My eyes open and I immediately close them again when I am blinded by bright sunlight filling the entire room, my face scrunches up in annoyance and I have to roll on my side to avoid facing the open window, a groan leaves my lips at the effort it takes for me to move.
When I fully wake up I finally open my eyes again and I am met with the empty space in front of me where his warm body should be, but instead he is sitting on the edge of the bed and facing me, shirtless and a small smile on his lips when he notices the confusion on my face.
"Why are you watching me sleep?" I ask with a groggy voice before clearing my throat, closing my eyes again because they still feel so heavy.
"I was about to wake you up." He chuckles, and my face instantly relaxes from its pout when I feel his hand brushing my hair away from my face before resting on my cheek.
"Why? It's so warm in here, come back?" I whine, leaning into his touch and bringing the soft comforter under my chin.
"Cause you're hungry, and it's almost 11 am." I can hear the smirk on his voice as he watches me trying to fall back asleep.
"I don't care about the time, how do you even know i'm hungry?" My words slur slightly from my cheek being squished into his pillow, i hum in satisfaction with a lazy smile at the warmth of his hand caressing my face.
"You're stomach's been rumbling for an hour, get up." He gently shakes me and I push his hand away, still half asleep, shaking my head at him with a negative hum.
"C'mon, Niall bought cereals and almond milk for you." He pries the covers away from my body, a gust of fresh air meets my bare skin and I gasp, my eyes instantly opening and staring up at him with my lips parted in shock.
"Stop it i'm naked!" I grab the comforter and cover myself again and he just laughs at me with a cheeky grin, his dimple making a much needed appearance and I just have to poke it with the tip of my finger, making him smile down at me with a small shake of his head.
"I know." He laughs under his breath and I use my foot to push him off the bed, but my half asleep limb only manages to barely nudge him.
My leg sticks out of the comforter and he looks down at it, a small frown on his face when he sees the stitches on my thighs, from being grazed by a bullet, when I was running through the woods, before he got to me.
Now that it's daylight he can clearly see how beaten up I actually am, and it looks like it's catching up to him when he also sees my knuckles that are still a little bit swollen, and the random scars on my arms and legs from branches, the other stitches hidden in my hairline and my bruised shoulder from when I hit a rock in the water.
