You're My Angel

Chapter Fifteen

*Tristan*

I was suddenly exhausted, even though I slept for three whole days. It was like my body was still trying to catch up and heal from all the trauma and damage it had gone through over the years. My eyes start to droop a little and I can feel my muscles becoming weak the longer I just sat here.

"You should get more rest." I hear his voice like a sweet melody, and I wish he would keep talking.

It was soothing, calming, and gentle. I just wanted to bask in it just a little longer. Which was insane since I didn't even know him nor had any reason to feel this way.

"For now, you can sleep in my room and tomorrow we'll settle you in your own."

I feel Cameron leave the couch and he helps pull me up into a standing position. "You, okay?" He asks with a mask of concern and all I could do was nod my head.

"Here, I'll take him." Sia suddenly lifts me up into his arms as if I didn't weigh a damn thing to him and my face heats in embarrassment from being picked up in such a way.

I was too tired to fight it though, so I just let him take me up the stairs. I didn't know what anyone was saying as the fatigue starts to hit me hard. Once we reach the door, to the room that I had been staying in, he gently sets me back onto my feet and makes sure that I was stable enough to stand on my own.

He deeply frowns at my face. "Are you sure you're alright? Maybe it was too soon for you to get out of bed." He says worriedly.

"I'm fine, really." I assure him.

"He's right. You don't look too good. I'll call Dr. Rossum, just to be sure." Axel comes up to my other side, his nearness causing me to feel a strange sensation over my skin.

I look up at him as he stares down at me, a hand on the doorknob of his room. Oh, that's right. I was staying in his room right now. The scent that I've been soaking in was his. A scent that made me feel safe and calm.

Realizing that, I feel the heat rise all over my body to know that his scent was all over me and probably has been for the last three days. Again, an immense amount of pleasure spears through me making me slightly lose a bit of my control on my pheromones.

Axel suddenly stiffens, his eyes becoming a bit dark, but he holds back, quickly looking away and opening the door to let me in. I try to hold the scent back, but it was hard. The happiness wouldn't die down as much as I wanted it too.

I could feel both Sia and Cameron staring a hole in the back of my head as I quickly walk through. My embarrassment was hard to hide and all I wanted right then was to be left alone to sleep. Crossing my arms over my chest I just stood in the middle of the room, looking around without really looking.

"The shower is through there. I put clean clothes for you to wear and there are new hygiene products for you as well. Once you get into your new room you can just take everything with you."

His voice wouldn't leave my senses alone and I don't understand why this was happening. I could only nod without looking at him.

"I'll stay with him tonight." Cameron quickly walks in to stand by my side only for Sia to do the same with a scowl on his face.

"Wait. I should stay with him. I'm his family."

Uh...

Cameron gives him a heated glare. "And I'm his best friend." He seethes out.

"You've been with him for hours as soon as he woke up. You can't just take all his time from everyone-"

"Enough!" I shout at the two of them, getting everyone's attention.

"No one stays."

We all turn to Axel as he stands there with his arms crossed and looking like he wanted to snatch the two of them and throw them out completely. Thomas rubs his face while he sighs.

"I'll show the two of them where they'll be staying."

He looks to Sia and Cameron. "Please follow me gentlemen."

He moves to the side and waits until they both finally move from their positions and unwillingly follow him out. Frist Sia looks to me and gives me an apologetic smile followed by Cameron who looks worried yet annoyed that he had to leave me on my own.

It amazed me how overprotective he was. We never hung out before other than that time at the supermarket. We talked about anything and everything. So, even though we saw each other once, it felt like a lifetime since I have known him. But it seems we'll definitely be learning about each other that simple phone conversations could never show.

I realize I was still just standing there and so was Axel.

Then I also again realize that this was his room. Oh, wait. Does that mean we'll be...sharing the room together? If that was the case maybe it was best that I should head to my new quarters tonight. I don't think I could survive a whole night with him in the same room with me.

My heart was already pounding like crazy, and my senses were all out of whack every time he was near. Not to mention his voice alone did weird things to my skin. As if sensing my nervousness, he rubs the back of his head and turns away from me.

"Um, I'll just be getting a few things really quick and be out of your way. Like I said, this room is for you tonight."

"Where will you be staying?" I snap my mouth shut wondering why I would ask that question.

Did it matter where he would be staying? Its not like it was any of my business anyways.

"Oh um, I'll stay on the couch tonight. This house only has four bedrooms and I'm not going to force or allow any of my guests to stay in the living room when there are beds for them." He starts walking over to his dresser and starts going through the things inside.

"Oh." Was all I could think to say to him.

He grabs what he was looking for and heads for the door. He hesitates as he holds the door partially closed while he glances back at me. His handsomeness gets me every time his eyes connect with mine, and I couldn't help but stare at him.

It was like we both became mesmerized by one another, and that same strange sensation overcomes me once again. My head was screaming to be alone, but it was like my heart was begging him to stay. Even though I had no idea who he was or what he was capable of.

"Are you...sure you'll be alright?" He finally gets out, even though he was just as stuck as I was in this situation.

"Yes, I'll be fine. Thank you." I whisper, feeling as if I couldn't quite catch my breath.

He finally smiles at me, and it absolutely took my breath away and I couldn't move a muscle. It was a pure beautiful smile, and I had a feeling it was hardly ever shown to the outside world. Joy zips through my heart to see it, to be blessed by it.

And I think my pheromones again flushes out without me purposely doing it. Because he stiffens again as the smile wipes from his face. He clears his throat and looks away.

"Goodnight...Tristan."

Goosebumps went all over my body at hearing him say my name like that.

"Goodnight...Axel."

And saying his name for the first time tasted sweet on my tongue and I wanted to say it over and over again.
