The next day, I woke up in Virgil's guest room.
Rubbing my eyes, I tried to get rid of the images of last night's make out session that filled my mind and my cheeks went crimson. I was totally wrapped around his finger wether I wanted to or not.
My side was hurting a bit less than yesterday, at least this one got better.

I bit my lip when I tried to get rid of the steamy scenes clouding my head and searched for new clothes to wear in the bag Perrie gave me back in the hospital.

When I was dressed, I saw that Virgil was already up and in the kitchen.
"Good Morning" I said softly, not to startle him and since I didn't how to act around him after yesterday.

He turned around and a broad smile crept on his face when he saw me.
"Hey. How'd you sleep?"

"Good" I answered honestly. I had a dreamless rest.

I watched him stretch his muscular arms out to grab the tea from the cupboards. He wore a black shirt and grey jeans.

He looked good and seeing him outside his kits but in ordinary clothes felt oddly domestic.

"Do you think we can drive to my place so I can collect a few more things?" I asked in a quiet voice, looking down on my hands.

Deep inside me I couldn't judge if I decided right by staying with him. I was with Perrie and Alex the last time already and was a burden enough, but at the same time I don't know if it was good for me to stay at Virgil's and on top of that, kiss him after he hurt me so much.

"Sure, I'm free so just tell me when you want to go" he replied, putting two mugs on the kitchen counter and I nodded.

Gratefully I let the hot tea glide down my sore and dry throat. I closed my eyes when the taste hit me but I soon realised I needed to take the heavy medication on the morning and let out a low moan in frustration.

With a sigh I stood up and clutched my side when I brought my empty mug to the sink. I felt Virgil's stare burning on my back.

By taking the bag of medication, I read through the document what I needed to take in right now. In total it was three pills.

I decided not to think about it and swallowed them with water.
"You should lay down and rest, until your rib feels better" Virgil frowned.
"Yeah, it makes me sleepy anyways. Just don't like laying around and doing nothing all the time."

"Yeah but right now it's for the better."

Right when I was about to sit down, my phone rang.

I picked it up when Virgil asked: "Who is it?"

"Your favorite girl" I teased him and smirked when I read it was Perrie calling me.

"But she's standing right in front of me" he shot back with a shameless grin and my cheeks went pink after his flirting.

"Yeah, I- I'll take the call quickly" I stuttered and disappeared to the other room when I heard Virgil chuckle.

My heart still fluttered when I picked up.
What was he doing to me?

I breathed out and heard Perries voice.
"Hey Marly, how are you doing?"

"Hello, I'm okay, Perrie"

"That's good to hear. Have you settled in well? Is Virgil treating you good?"

More than good, I thought and blushed.
