chapter 2.3

Note my quote >>

//the night stole fast, an assassin of dark, seizing the day, with his army of stars\\

I woke up groggily, I looked around the room noticing once again, I was not in my own bed. Suddenly I started to remember what had happened. I relaxed a bit and laid back down onto the sheets, believing this to be Michael's home. I turned over to see my beautiful, tainted lover. Since he was asleep, I took the chance to examine him. He had a black eye and cut going down his forehead, his lip not swollen anymore, but still busted, his arm was in a sling and he was facing me fast asleep. Seeing him this way made me want to cry. He was such a beautiful man, it hurt to see him so... tarnished.

"Princess?"

I was startled by his raspy voice. He almost sounded hoarse.

"Yes Luke? Do you need me to get you some pain killers?" I asked moving closer to him.

I could see a ghost of a smile cross his lips before he winced once again.

"Kylie....I missed you. You were all I thought about for the past...week."

I smiled an apologetic smile. "I'm so sorry this happened to you...to us," I say quietly.

"This isn't your fault. I didn't protect you enough. I'm so sorry princess."

"Don't worry about apologizing, just worry about getting better okay? I'm going to get you some pain killers," I say and kiss him on his forehead, careful to miss the cut.

I walked out of the bedroom, in a pair of shorts and what I assume is Michael's tshirt or Luke's. I faintly remember getting here the night before and changing.

"Hey, you're awake," Michael smiled. "Does he need meds?"

I nod at him. "Here, Jamie said he needs to take them every six hours so that he doesn't feel too much pain. He had a dislocated shoulder and a cracked rib.."

I wince. "I can't believe this happened to him. Or to me." I add quietly...

"I know, I'm sorry. He is too," Michael said hugging me lightly. "Now go help your boyfriend." He chuckles.

I smile taking the medicine and walking back to the bedroom Luke and I had been sharing previously.

"Luke?" I asked quietly making sure I didn't wake him if he was asleep.

"I'm awake," he said weakly. I smile slightly walking towards him and handing him a glass of water and two small blue pills.

"Not like the ones I'm used to taking.." He said quietly, mostly to himself. I furrow my eyebrows and look at him in confusing, but don't ask anymore questions. He's been through enough already and so have I.

"How are you, my princess?" He asked pulling me onto the bed beside him. I chuckle and move up against him.

"I'm okay, I just feel like it's all kind of surreal. It hurts me to see you in so much pain," I say quietly.

"I know, babe. I promise you this isn't anything worse than what I've felt before, believe me," he said stroking my hair.

I hummed softly in approval. "I missed your touch," I said kissing the hand belonging to the arm that was still in a sling.

"I missed kissing you. I missed your voice. I missed the little things you do to make me feel like you love me. I missed the way I corrupt you. And most importantly, I missed your beautiful smile when I say I love you."
