I'm a pretty light sleeper so I wake up to the pebbles tapping the glass of my window. I sit up and wipe my eyes already knowing who it Is slide my window open and step off of my bed letting draken in. he kisses my forehead and places himself on my bed as I give him a tired smile. "morning handsome." I say groggily while I walk over and undo his braid letting his scalp breath. he leans his head into my stomach as i rub his head. "its 3 am" he says. "am as in the morning sir." I say poking his cheek, his eyes shut. "I guess."
I observe him and see small cuts all over him. I frown as I grab his face and turn it to get a better look seeing bruises and small cuts. " this late at night?" I say as he leans into my touch. "yeah group of guys, too dark so I don't know what gang they were from. they caught me off guard so they got me for a little but you know they look worse." I chuckled at his last statement and pulled the first aid kit from my drawer.
I started to put ointment and small clear bandages on his slightly bigger and deeper cuts. I giggled as I put a colorful hello kitty bandaid on the cut adoring his cheek. "You know I love you right." draken says immediately stopping my giggles. "Mhm, but where did that come from."
I respond a little scared for his response. ' why is he talking like this, is he leaving me?' my thoughts run wild at my boyfriend's out-of-character talk. He stays silent for what seems like years. "Are we okay?" I ask the question I didn't want t ask. But I hold back my relief sigh as I see his head shoot up in confusion. "Course we are idiots." he says ruffling my hair and making me smile. "I was just thinking, is this really the life I live at this age?" I slightly gasp at his confession. "What do you mean baby love?"
"I mean constantly having to watch my back from guys like that, don't get me wrong I can sure as hell handle it, but." he finishes and continues to look down towards my pink socks. I slightly grab his chin and make him face me. "But what my love. Do you want to get out to gang?" I ask a little lost at what he's trying to say to me. "No, I love my family. It's just a little stressful. Yah know?" he says as he nuzzles into my palm
