!guilt from SA, mentions of rape,needles,shock!
I cuddled deeper into a warm chest and I felt arms wrap around me.
Wait do I smell... Waffles?
I sniff again and slowly open my eyes. "Waffles?" My eyes widen at how hoarse my voice sounds.
"Mhm... You can go back to sleep, they'll be done when you get up." I realize from the voice that I'm laying on Syn with him having his face smushed in my hair, taking in the scent of lavender in my hair.
He looks so tired...
Some nights like these where I can actually sleep, I'm very grateful for. However, when I can't, me and him hang out with each other. We marathon-watched all of the Harry Potter movies together, that was fun. But I realize he can just like never sleep.
"How about you sleep, I'll be here to watch over you." I phrased it more as an order than a question, my voice sounded more tired than demanding but he needed to sleep.
Syn's eyebrows raised at my demand. "As much as I appreciate it, you're not the one in charge here. Be a good girl and try to go back to sleep." He says sternly.
Jeez, okay grumpy pants.
I snuggled back into his chest and close my eyes, even though I know I can't go back to sleep.
I feel as he uses his three fingers and runs them softly up and down my arm, causing goosebumps to form, however, it's oddly calming.
"You can't sleep, can you?" Syn mumbles after a long moment of silence.
I softly shake my head against his chest and he sighs and stops his movements on my arm. He lifted my chin and I opened my eyes to look at him.
He gave me a heartwarming smile through his tired state. "I'll tell them to hurry up so you can eat, how about that?" Syn asks softly.
I smile back at him, "That would be nice, but I can just ask them, you know?"
He chuckles "No, trust me, after how much pain you were in. I don't wanna even imagine you walking yet."
My eyebrows raised at that, well I'll trust his judgment even though I don't feel sore.
Syn grabs his phone beside him and I assume he texts one of his friends. But immediately puts it back where it was resting before and gives me his full attention, which I eat up selfishly.
"What do you think my name would be if I was a dragon?" I ask and ruin the cute romantic moment that you'd only see out of a movie.
His face scrunches up at the randomness. "Just shut up and let me admire you" He jokes and rolls his eyes.
I hear the familiar beeps of the keypad before the door was slammed open and the aroma of a good breakfast fills the air.
My eyes squint when the dim red lights suddenly turn white and bright, illuminating the room.
