chapter 14

Eliza's pov.

I went into the green room and sat down on the sofa, I had got a book out from my bag and put my earphones in to listen to some music. I look up occasionally when I hear the door open and close. 

I started to feel sleepy but I tried to stay awake but was struggling. As I am drifting in and out of sleep, I feel someone next to me, 'hey' they say softly, I feel my book being removed from my hands and earphones being removed.

I feel someone lifting me up fully on the sofa, before gently lifting my head as laying it on their lap, 'rest Eliza, rest' they say kissing my forehead. I think it's tris but I'm not sure, it wasn't long before I fell fast asleep.

Tristan's pov

I had walked into the green room to have a break and I see Eliza falling asleep on the sofa. I remove her book from her hands placing the bookmark in and removing her earphones.

I lift her up so she is fully on the sofa  I lift her head so I can sit down placing her head on my lap, 'rest Eliza, rest' I say kissing her forehead.

As she is laying on my lap I stroke her soft hair. I start to feel sleepy too, I ended up asleep too.

My eyes dart open when I hear the door open, I see joe walk in and my eyes start to close again, he covers us both with some blankets before walking out again.

Joe's pov

I went into the green room to check on Eliza to find her asleep, I see tristan's eyes dart open, before closing them again. I cover them both before leaving the room.

I then head to the studio where I see James  Brad and Con 'Stay out of the green room guys' I say 'why' they ask 'Eliza and Tristan are asleep.' I say.

I went back to my office to continue researching the prospetic Tris and I were looking at.

~ a few hours later ~

Tristan's pov.

I woke up about 30 minutes ago and I see Eliza asleep. I see that the lads have texted saying they have gone back home.

Joe comes in, 'shall we head home' he asks 'yes, thanks Joe' I reply. 'Eliza' I say kissing her forehead, 'time to go home' I say 'okay' she replies yawning.

'Would you like some help' I ask sitting her up, she nods and I help her into her chair. I pack up her things and pop them into her bag, passing it to her and her crutches before the three of us heads to joes car.

I get Eliza in the car before going to help Joe with putting the things in the boot. We see that she has fallen back to sleep.
I get in the front with Joe, 'can we talk later' joe asks me 'of course joe' 

At home (joes)

I get out of the car and walk round to the door to get Eliza out, joe goes and unlocks the door for us as I follow carrying Eliza.

I walk in before heading to our room down stairs, we had recently moved our room from upstairs down, due to her using a wheelchair.

I carry her in laying her on the bed before covering her. I pull up the rails on her side of the bed to prevent her falling out.

We have a bell which Eliza rings if she needs us and we are not in the room, I kiss her forehead before walking out and closing the door quietly.

I meet joe in the kitchen. 'So' joe starts, 'I've done some more research and I think we can do it.' 'That's great' i say smiling 'her birthday is in 6 months, I hope this helps her' I continue.

We sit chatting before going to prepare tea 'joe' I say 'yes tristan' he replies, 'I can't thank you enough for what you do for Eliza and letting us stay with you' I say. 'Tris it's okay, I love having you both here, you know you both are always welcome.' He replies.

We had put tea in the oven and we had sat down on the sofas, I was starting to fall asleep when I heard Elizas bell go, I was about to get up when Joe place a hand on my shoulder 'I'll go, I'll go' he says before walking into our room

Joe's pov

When tristan thanked me for letting Eliza and him stay I told him that they both are always welcome, it allows them to have some peace from the lads place which can gey crazy sometimes.

We had moved their room to downstairs  as it gave eliza space to move round in her chair, and she has a wet room attached to there room.

After we had finished preparing tea and had placed it in the oven, we sat down on the sofas. Elizas bell went and I could see tris falling asleep so as I went to get up I placed a hand on his shoulder telling him to rest before walking into their room.

'Hey El, how can I help' I ask walking to the bed, lowing the bed rail, she nods to the bathroom 'okay, let me get the chair' I say before walking into the bathroom to get the chair, I bring it into the room, helping her transfer before taking her into the bathroom.

After she had finished I brought her into the bedroom, 'Ready for tea?' I ask 'yes I am dad, something smells nice' she replies.

She transfers into her chair for around the house before wheeling herself into the kitchen diner. 'Hey babe' she says kissing tris cheek, 'hey Eliza, ready for tea' we head to the table and Eliza gets out of the chair and sits on a chair at the table.

I go and bring the food out from the oven and tris brings the plates and glasses. We sit and enjoy a lovely meal. I am so happy to be with people I love.

We sit and chill before we head to bed.
