Tessa:

I thought sleeping in a different bed would be best for me and Hardin as we both needed time to calm down from our argument. Since I was still quite annoyed at his reaction and how he kept Florence a secret from me. I also knew that something would happen, we would end up forgiving each other and probably have sex.

But I also want him to realise that there are two wonderful people in his life that miss him and want to see him but he won't because of Ken. Which I totally get. I know he had it really bad when he was younger but Ken has changed since then. I noticed the sadness Karen and Florence felt talking about missing Hardin. I really do hope the next time I go around I can keep my promise to Florence and bring Hardin with me but I will totally understand if he doesn't.

Anyways, when I got into the spare room I then realised I have nothing in her to change into. However I knew I wasn't going back to our room because I might change my mind and stay with Hardin so I decided that I would just sleep in my underwear.

I ended up just watching some Friends on the tv for a bit then I heard knocking on my door. I knew it would be hard but I couldn't open the door to him because then I may end up in our bed together with him. So I just stayed where I was on the bed and then I heard him speak.

"I will leave some things out here for you Tess, love you baby and goodnight" he says sweetly to me through the door.

I then heard him walk away so I wanted a few seconds then I got up off the bed and opened the door to see the things on the ground.

I smiled immediately when I saw his top as he knows how much I love to sleep in his clothes because they make me feel so comfortable. I also loved seeing my favourite bottled water filled and my blanket which I thought was really sweet of him to bring me just in case I needed them. There was also my phone which I completely forgot I had left in the living room. I really appreciated the things Hardin brought me as it shows how much he cares and knows me well.

I decided to text him but then I had seen he had already texted me.

Hardin:
Hey baby, hope everything I left at the door is fine for you. I'm sorry for my reaction tonight, I will see you tomorrow so we can talk about things then. I love you so much and goodnight Tess. Xx

Tessa:
Yes everything you brought is great, thank you. I'm sorry for tonight as well but we can talk about it tomorrow. I love you so much baby and goodnight Hardin. Xx

I reply to him then I set my phone on the bed side table and then I get changed into Hardin's top. I then get under the covers on the bed and carry on watching Friends till I end up falling asleep.

...

I wake up to noises. I have no idea what the time is but I wake up to her sounds which I guessed was the tv but that had switched off itself. I look around the room to see nothing obvious making sounds. I then got out of bed and looked at my phone and it was nearly two in the morning. I then left the spare room and then I recognised the sounds coming from our room. I opened the door to Hardin shouting in his sleep, shaking and he wouldn't stop moving under the covers that he was getting caught in them.

I immediately ran over the bed and climbed over to him and shook him.

"Hardin woke up! Hardin! Baby" I said a couple of times and then his eyes flashed open, we locked eye contact then he grabbed me around my waist and then I wrapped my arms around his shoulders. His breathing was still ragged and he was still shaking whilst holding on to me.

"Hey baby, you are fine, calm down, '' I said to him and moved my arms up and down him. I then moved my hands into his hair and messaged his head as that normal relaxed him.
