"Well. Well.. Well. What do we have here?" Hugo says in a hushed tone.

He walks up to the bed I'm laying on. 

"Haven't seen this one before. Willingly lying on the bed? This is so strange."

He sits on the bed and puts what sounds like a bat down on the floor. 

"I know you are getting down to the bottom of Amy's story."

I sit there with my eyes closed. 

"And I know you're awake right now."

My heart skips a beat, and something tells me Hugo knows this.

"Let me help you back to your room. I can't have you falling asleep in someone else's room."

He picks me up and I, being the stupid girl I am, cuddles into his chest. He wasn't expecting this. I could tell. I could hear his heart beat. It, for some reason, made me smile. He carries me into the lift. He hits a button and it starts to move. 

"You know, Y/N.. I know you have secrets."

My heart skipped a beat.

"Something in me knows these type of things. You're gonna tell me what you did sometime. I won't be bothered. I bet I've done worse."

I just keep snuggled up to his chest. After the long walk, I can tell we are getting close to my room. He pulls out the keys and successfully opens my door. He lays me down on the bed very gently. He pulls the blankets over me. When he started heading for the door I say, "Stay."

He comes towards the bed and looks at me. I slowly open my eyes. 

"Tell me about your past first."

"But.."

"Do it or I knock you out."

"Fine!" I yell. "I might've did some things that weren't good in the past."

"Like?"

"I can't tell you."

"Y/N?"

"NO!"

"Tell me right now!"

"I tried to kill myself okay?!" I scream.

He stands there looking shocked.

"I was hooked on heroin and cocaine. I was a drinker and a fucking addict that deserved to die and I would've if it wasn't for my fucking brother that found out about it."

"Y/N, I didn't know."

"Yeah, no fucking shit."

I turn away from him. I feel an indention on the bed. I look over my shoulder to see him lying on his back with his arms behind his head. 

"How did you try?"

"What?"

"How did, you know...?"

"I took a knife from the kitchen.. I.. I wasn't thinking. I needed more alcohol. Dad wasn't buying me anymore of it. I went to the kitchen and looked and he dumped it all down the drain. He called me a fucking disappointment. He said how fucking stupid I was to get hooked on it all. That's when I went to my room and tried to end it."

Apparently, that struck a nerve with him. I could tell he was getting emotional and he said, "Don't you ever think about doing it again, you understand?" 

"What? Why should you care?"

"Because I know what it's like. I was there, too. Minus all of the alcohol and drugs. Just promise me you won't do it. Do it for Jimmy."

I look at him. 

"Yes, sir."

"Okay now get to sleep."

He gets up and walks to the door.

"You said you'd stay."

"Y/N, I can't stay. I'm supposed to hate you remember?"

"Please."

"Ugh, fine." 

He comes over and sits in a chair next to the bed. I roll over where i'm facing him. 

"Thank you, Hugo."

"Um, uh, yeah whatever. Get to sleep, now!"

I smiled and thought to myself, 'What the fuck is happening?' I slowly drifted off to sleep. Then, I remembered something..

Hugo's POV:

'Why am I in here? I'm supposed to not get attached!' I say in my head. I look over to see Y/N get up. 

"Where are you going?"

"To the bathroom. I have to get into my night clothes on. "

She goes to the bathroom and walks out wearing a baggy t shirt and some shorts.

'I wonder if she knows that the shorts show off a little to much? I wonder if she's doing it for some reason. She looks very beautiful in them. Damn..'

She comes over to me and says, "Goodnight, Hugo." She puts her hands on my shoulders and kisses my cheek. I could tell I was getting red hot.

"Goodnight, Y/N."

She gets under the covers and goes to sleep. God, she's bloody gorgeous when she's sleeping. Now I know what Jimmy sees in her. I slowly drift off in the chair to her humming. 

Author's Note: Who knew Hugo Punch could be such a Teddy Bear. Well, I'm sorry this one was so short. It is currently 11:28 while typing this so.. I'm going to bed. I'll update as soon as I can. I wonder what is going to happen in the next episode of This Love is Criminal. Goodnight everybody!!
