I helped him up to his room, placing him down on his bed. I turned on the bedside lamp to light the room since it was dark out.

"How are you feeling?" I asked, placing his suitcase down next to his wardrobe.

"Fucking amazing" He laid back on his bed, a wide grin on his lips as he watched me.

"I meant your arm, asshat" I chuckled, sitting down at the edge of the bed beside him. He grabbed me, pulling me into him so I was now straddling his waist.

His hands rubbing up and down my thighs, squeezing lightly. He then reached up, holding the necklace around my neck, his thumb gliding over the gold as he smiled softly.

His smile faded as he looked up into my eyes, holding my cheek. "There's something I need to tell you" He said. My heart sank. "But you can't get mad at me."

"Okay.." My brows furrowed as my lungs froze with anticipation.

"I'm— I was, a virgin" He spoke.

My eyes widened as I took in a deep breath. "Oh my god" My mouth hung open "What— Wh— Fuck. Why didn't you say something!" I whisper-yelled, shoving his chest lightly.

"Would it have a difference?" He tilted his head to the side like Oslo does, his hair flopping with him.

"Ye— Well, no. But I would have liked to have know!" I argued.

He sat up, holding my chin. "I'm glad it was you" He said before kissing me softly.

I wrapped my arms around him, holding my head to his chest as I let out a sigh. "I wish we could stay like this" I spoke "Just me and you, nobody else, and we don't have to worry about anyone seeing us."

He kissed my head before laying back, letting me lie on his chest in the dimly lit room. "When will it end?" He asked, looking up to the ceiling above "Will we always be sneaking around, Will there be a time when I could take you on a date, even hold your hand in public."

"I don't know" I sighed "I don't wanna think about that right now, I just wanna enjoy this."

I looked over to the alarm clock on the side of his bed, 12 am. "My parents are probably wondering where I am" I rested my chin on his chest, looking up at him, his brown eyes looking down at me, it made my body heat up and a smile grow on my lips.

"Then you should get home, Sunshine" He drew his knuckle down my cheek "I'll see you tomorrow at school."

"No, you should take a day off with your arm" I sat up "I don't want you getting hurt again."

"Careful there, Sunshine" He grinned "Your starting to sound like you care for me."

"I do care for you" I took his hand in mine, rubbing my thumb over his skin "I got so scared when I saw you lying there, I thought you were dead."

"You can't get rid of me that easy" He squeezed my hand "Now get home, get some rest, Sunshine" He kissed my head.

"I'll call you, okay" I climbed off him, placing a kiss on his lips "I love you."

I love you. It sounded so strange but yet so normal for those words to leave my lips, like they were always meant to. I was always meant to love you.

I made my way outside, remembering to lock their front door. I got to my car when I stopped, feeling like there was eyes on me. An unease settling in my stomach.

I lifted my head, a black car parked a couple houses down at the side of the road, the windows tinted out so nobody could see in.

It looks parked and empty. I was probably just being paranoid as always. I shook my head, getting into my car. I need to relax more, not everything is out to get me, i have to remember that.
