Madness Ghostface x Reader

23. Stay

We walked all the way home in silence. A few times I saw Ghostface look over at me in the corner of my eye but I chose to ignore it. I didn't want to talk right now, I didn't know how to feel.

We walked into the dark house not turning on any lights.  We both took our masks off at the door.  I walked into the kitchen and read the clock,  It was 11:46.  I leaned on the counter and put my head in my hands.

I felt like crying,  but also laughing.  This whole night was a rollercoaster of emotions.  I thought back on what had happened,  It was terrible to think about but it also gave me a different feeling.  It felt cold, and numb but it also felt powerful. 

Without realizing it I had been standing in the kitchen for a while just lost in thought.

"Y/n.."

I jumped at the sudden voice. 

"Oh my god Ghost you scared me" I sighed looking up at him.

"Are you ok..?" He asked, He looked concerned

"y-ya why wouldn't I be?" I said brushing the hair out of my face.

"your nose.." He said as he gestured to my face

I touched my upper lip feeling something warm, when I looked at my hand my nose was bleeding.

"oh um.." I stuttered

"here" He cut me off handing me a napkin from the kitchen counter.

"Thank you" I smiled taking it from him and wiping the blood off my face.

When I was done I through out the napkin and looked back at Ghostface.  

He didn't say anything and before I could I was being pulled into a hug. 

I hesitated for a second before I hugged him back.

after a few seconds he let go and put his hand on my face,  tilting my head up so he could look into my eyes.

"Are you ok?" He asked once again

"Yes... no.. I don't know.." I replied leaning into his hand.

Because of all the mixed emotions and the exhaustion from the long day to be completely honest I wasn't ok.

"are you tired?" He asked "you have work tomorrow and it's late, you should sleep."

I smiled and nodded, as I began to realize he actually  cared about me.

He grabbed my hand and started leading me towards my bedroom.

When we arrived to my room he turned on the lights and let me change into what I wear to bed.  he wasted no time trying to get me to sleep.  It was a success because before I knew it I was in bed under the covers. 

My eyes grew heavy as he shut the lights off.

He bent down to my level.

"Have a good sleep ok, I'll see you in the morning." he spoke softly before kissing me gently on the forehead.

I didn't respond, I was too tired.  I just closed my eyes.

As I heard him get up and start to walk away I reached up grabbing his wrist.  He turned back towards me when I did this.

"Stay.. please.." I said quietly.

He nodded before taking his shirt off and climbing in bed beside me.  He pulled me close as he had the night before and soon I was drifting to sleep.

Everything started feeling slow as I was beginning to fall asleep when I heard a whisper come out of Ghostfaces mouth.

"I love you.."

And then I fell asleep.
