We're fifteen minutes into the movie, and she's already asleep.

I let out a sigh from pure boredom and exhaustion. (Practice kicked my ass today, I need some rest.).

I try to stay awake, constantly looking down at her small frame pressed against my body gently.

When she lays against my chest, her chest slowly rises and falls. When she moves around, she covers her face with her hair.

I couldn't tell if she was plain naive or if she trusted me. I mean she barely knows anything about me and yet she let her guard down like this.

I look down at her sleeping frame taking in the image.

I allow my rough fingers to gently move the hair to the side of her face.

Her skin is soft and golden.

Her lips are pink and plump.

Everything about her was so perfect.

I can stare at her for hours, listening to her talk about nonsense.

I barely know her, yet it feels so right to have her in my arms.

(I'd never let anything happen to her)

I have a strong urge to protect her.

I don't want to feel like this.

I want it to stop, I don't wanna care about her.

Her body shifts to where she is no longer on my chest. My eyebrows furrow as I look over at the small rectangular clock that reads 9:20 pm.

I wanna stare at her forever, but I'm tired.

(I grab my phone from the coffee table)

I snap a quick picture of her. My mind is now able to rest knowing I would have this moment forever.

I finally allow my heavy eyes to close giving in to my exhaustion. My eyes close allowing darkness to take over my eyes.

The sound of giggling starts to floods my sleeping ears.

I turn my head squeezing my pillow tighter. When I hear a squeak?

The giggling grows louder and becomes more familiar.

(Fucking Alec) I think angrily sitting up from my sleeping position.

My eyes catch sight of him with his phone. His hand is over his mouth as he tries to stop his small annoying giggles.

I glare at him.

Looking over at Haven, we make eye contact.

She quickly turns away with a shy expression on her face.

"Well this was quite a scene," Alec says pointing between both of us.

"Oh fuck off," I say shooting him a glare.

He ignores me telling Heaven he was going to get her stuff from his room.

Did I know her books were in there maybe?

Did Alec text me to get them for her hours ago yes?

They were here the whole time?" she asks Alec flipping through her books.

"Yeah, I thought you knew."

He looks at me with a smirk on his face, I just play dumb.

Alec leaves for the kitchen, while Heaven gathers her belongings.
