Chapter Five

Karl POV

I woke up to the feeling of a wet rag sitting on my forehead. I have a horrible headache and my throat is extremely dry.

I slowly sit up and look around what I believe is my room, but i'm not entirely sure as it is almost pitch black.

All of a sudden someone's phone lit up on the other side of the room, their brightness must have been all way up because the room was filled slightly with light. Then after I looked to see who was sitting at the desk across the room, it was Sapnap. He must have seen me wake up but he might not have been sure, so after he saw me just then he quickly yelled for George to come in. George came about a minute later bursting the door wide open. It was too bright for me so I quickly covered my eyes and slowly removed my hands from my face as my eyes adjusted to the sudden change of lighting.

"What's wrong Sap?," George asked in a worried tone.

Does George not see that i'm awake?

"I need you to watch Karl for a couple hours I'm gonna take a break, please?" Sapnap said in a begging sort of tone. I can't help but wonder what Sapnap would have to do right now, but it could be any time of the day and I wouldn't know so maybe he has to run an errand.

After Sapnap ran out of the room George turned to me finally acknowledging that I am awake. 

I ask what time it is, and George looks at his phone and tells me that it's 2:30. am.

Hearing that worries me because what would Sapnap be doing right now?

After what felt like hours of silence, George asks me what happened but i'm speechless.

Should I tell him? No I can't i barely know him. And I don't need the pity.

"Nothing I just slipped, I guess I bumped the valve that turned up the hot water and I am assuming I fainted." I explained praying George would believe me.

He didn't look like he believed me but he seemed to let it go with a nod of the head and told me to get some more sleep. I couldn't help but ask what Sap was doing but George had no answer for me so I replied with a small 'oh' and George walked out of what I have now identified as my room.

I look down and realize I am wearing an unfamiliar T-shirt. I then remember seeing Sap wear this shirt a few days ago.

I'm wearing his shirt? Why?

Then it hit me.

I was naked in the shower when he found me.

He saw me naked. Omg he probably thinks I'm gross. He is so disgusted with my body I know he is. Why do I have to be this way?? I should just disappear and never come back.

No. Why do I think like this. He is respectful I know he won't judge. Maybe I should just sleep these thoughts off.

Sapnap POV

It has been a few hours since George came in the room, he is most likely asleep.

I check my phone and it reads 2:17 am.

how much longer is karl going to be asleep??

10 minutes pass and I hear the bed sheets shuffling from across the room. As I look up I see Karl's silhouette sitting up in bed. I think I might be hallucinating but I'm not sure.

Once I'm positive Karl is awake, I decide what I will do.

My thinking is cut short when my phone vibrates the desk I'm sitting at.
