I'm shaking Romans shoulders with his cover brought up bunch around my naked chest. "Roman wake up." I shove him again but he only groans and turns away from me.

"Roman seriously.." He moves further into his pillow. The noises from downstairs become even louder, and it has me on edge. I place my hands on his chest now and I begin to push down. I lower my lips to his ears, making sure he hears me.

"Roman I think someone's in the house.."

He shoots up immediately and if it wasn't for the situation we were in, I would be laughing. "What?" He loudly whispers facing me.

"I heard noises. Like a lot." He shakes his head but nevertheless stands up and begins to quickly pull a pair of sweatpants on over his boxers. His movement halts when another crash comes from downstairs.

He turns to face me and throws a shirt and pair of boxers at me. "Don't move." I only nod and watch as he opens up his drawer taking out a gun. My gun. And he begins to open the door, descending down the stairs.

I stay hunched and cocooned in his bedsheets for a while, and only when I hear the angry tone of Roman is when I begin to put the clothes on that he gave me.

Slowly I leave the room, conscious of my surroundings. I move down the stairs clutching the railing tightly, my legs still a little wobbly from before, and when I see Roman standing in the kitchen talking to a girl with a stern look on his face, I make my presence known.

Roman catches me in his eye sight and ushers me over. Once he's close enough he's pulling me to his side. Now looking between the top, they look a like. The girl who I do not know the name of, is grinning at me.

"Hey i'm Sofia." She reaches a hand out to me, but I only stare at it. Her brows furrow and she snaps her eyes to Roman harshly. She nods her head as if trying to gesture for him to say something.

"Charlotte..This is Sofia... my umm sister."

Relief floods through me and my body feels as if it's been lifted. "Oh my god i'm so sorry." She laughs but grips my hand giving it a firm shake.

"Don't worry about it." She steps back and shoves a strawberry into her mouth.

Roman turns around and starts pulling out a glass. He takes the orange juice out the fridge and pours it into the glass. "Here." He hands it to me, kissing the side of my head. "I'm going to go shower, Sofia don't be weird."

She holds her hands up in protest. "No promises."

I watch him walk away, and then turn my attention back over to his sister. "It's so good to meet you finally." I say, and she holds out a strawberry for me to take, which i accept.

"You too! I've heard a-lot about you." I lift the glass to my lips, swallowing the drink.

"My apologies for waking you up today. I didn't mean to scare you. I came back from a trip yesterday and I wanted to scare Roman."

I'm laughing at just the image of Roman jumping. I've tried countless of times to scare him and let me just say it doesn't particularly go to plan. One time he reversed it back, and as soon as I jumped out at him, he screamed at me which caused me to also scream.

"It's alright, I think I would die to see that." She laughs. "I really like your nails." She looks down at her hands , smiling almost proud of herself.

"We should go on a girls trip. I need to get them re done anyway."

"We should. What if we take Roman so he can carry the bags? I don't think our fresh acrylics would appreciate the bags?" I'm smirking, and I watch her own smirk grow.

"Right well that's the plan."

"What do you think of this skirt?" I ask Sofia holding it up to my body. She turns from the clothing rack to face me.

"Please get it, you'll look so good." She sends me a grin and then picking up the shirt she was looking at. I shift over so I'm standing in front of the mirror, looking down at the skirt.

"Get it." A rough voice says from behind me. I look up and notice Roman sitting down watching me through the mirror, bags surrounding him.

"You like it?" I ask, turning to face him. He lets his eyes travel down my body, almost picturing it on me.

"I fucking Love it." I turn around smiling now, aware of the fact he can see my in the mirror. I place it back into the shopping basket. We move around the shop, collecting dresses, shirts and more all while Roman simply sits and waits for us to finish.

He hasn't complained not once, and whenever I've been self conflicted on whether or not to get something, he's made his opinion known. I showed him this black dress, with a slit going up the leg. He said If it wasn't in the basket, he would simply buy it and it would be waiting for me by the time we get home.

After checking out everywhere with Sofia, who has great taste we head to the checkout. The lovely woman at the cashier scans everything for us, and places it all into bags.

Before I can press my card to the reader, Romans card presses down instead paying for us. I turn to face him angrily, but he shrugs and instead leans down to pick up the bag. 

Sofia only grins up at him, whispering about going to get food from one of the stools. I watch her walk away eagerly. Roman leans down, his hand pushing the hair from my face. I feel his lips give a gentle kiss on the side of my head.

"I want you to try on and show me everything when we are home."
