I wake up and roll over groaning. My head is throbbing and I'm really hungry. I didn't eat lunch at school so I got up to go to the kitchen. I look around the room, it's not mine. There are pictures on the wall and a chair in the corner. I'm laying on a king-sized bed and I'm not alone. I heard Grimm walk to the me from the chair in the corner.

He smiled, "You're awake" He said. 

"Yeah," I rub the back of my head, "Where am I?" I asked.

"You tripped in the woods and I found you laying there while Tyler was coming at you so I stopped him and took you home. To my home." He emphisized "my"

I nodded, "Does my mom know where I am?" I asked. 

"Of course. I don't just take children Hood. What do you think I am?" He chuckled.

I smiled, "I don't know you could be some animal." I joked. 

His smile faded as he repeated the word animal.

"I was kidding." I said. 

He laughed nervously, "Oh, Sorry. I don't like being called an animal. I like Grimm better." He said. 

I grinned, "Me too." I said. 

He handed me two Tylenol and some water.

"Thanks, Grimm." I said. 

He nodded as I swallowed them down.

"Grimm, what time is it?" I asked. 

He looked at his watch, "Mid-night." He said. 

"Shit" I muttered. "I got to go. I know my mom knows I'm here, but I have a curfew. " I said. 

He laughed as I rushed to pick my stuff up and stopped me, "Darling you think I didn't know that. It's Friday and your mom knows you're staying here." He said. 

"Staying? I didn't agree to that." I said. 

"Well, do you want to stay with me? I did save your life today so you owe me anyway." He smirked and I melted and sat in the bed.

"Sure, fine. Whatever." I said trying to sound cool. 

He smiled, "Great. I have clothes for you to wear over there. The bathroom is right across the hallway and we'll be sleeping in here." He said. 

"Together?" I asked. 

He nodded, "Unless that makes you feel uncomfortable. Then I'll sleep on the couch." He said quickly. 

"Yeah, that sounds better." I say walking out the room grabbing the clothes on the way out. I put them on and looked in the mirror, it was his big T-shirt and some shorts. I looked acceptable.

I walked over and knocked on the door, "Come in." He said. Ismiled and did so. He was shirtless and in basketball shorts. It was hot. I noticed the scars and tattoo on his chest. The tattoo looked new, it was of a howling wolf.. Like my necklace.

He walked over and grabbed my hand pulling me to the bed and laid me down. He smiled at me, "Goodnight Hood." He said tucking me in. 

"Night Grimm." I said as he walked over to the couch in the room. I didn't notice it earlier. It was a black leather couch against the wall.

I laid there for 15 minutes in silence staring at the ceiling. Grimms scent is stronger than ever even though he's across the room.

"Grimm, you awake?" I asked. 

He mumbled a response and got up walking over to me, "What do you need?" He asked. 

I sighed, "I can't sleep." I said. 

The moon shined against his face "Oh, I'm sorry." He said. 

"Sleep with me?" I asked. 

I saw a smile spread across his face, "Of course." He said. 

The bed dipped down as he laid behind me and wrapped his arm around me. I turned under the weight of his arm and snuggled in to his chest.

Minutes later my eyes started drooping and I snuggle further into his chest. The last thing I hear before sleep overpowered me was "I need you Hood." He said. 

And I'm asleep.


The next morning I heard light snoring and a heavy weight slung across me. I flutter my eyes open and I'm staring at Grimms define chest. I trace my little fingers over the scars on his chest. He growled low in his throat as I tried to pull myself away and pulled me closer to his chest.

"Grimm" I groaned but it sounded more sexual than I intended.

He opened his eyes and smirked at me, "Don't leave." He said. 

"I was going to go to the bathroom!" I said. 

He pulled his arm off of me and I smiled, "Thank you." I said. 

He closed his eyes again and I showed myself the way.

Once I was done I walked back in the room and sat beside him. He opened his eyes and I laid down next to him. He wrapped his arms around me again as I snuggled closer to him. "This is perfect." I whispered to myself. He kissed my forehead and the volts shot through me again. He pulled away and I looked in his eyes, It's not my fault they're so easy to get lost in. His eyes were grey with a white circle in the middle. I loved them.

"I love the way you say my name Hood." He said. 

I giggled, "Why?" I asked. 

"Well, the way you said it this morning was hot. But the way you normally say it send shivers down my spine and I love it. It's like when we touch, the way it tingles." He said. 

I felt like I stopped breathing, "Wait, you feel it too?" I asked. 

He nodded, "Each time. It's like tingles shooting through my body." He said. 

"This is weird. I've never felt that with anyone." I said. 

"Me either." He tightened his grip on me.

"Grimm, why do you protect me from everyone when I was fine hiding under my hood." I said. 

He rubbed his hand up and down my back, I've gotten used to the tingles now.

"Because Hood, you're perfect." He said. 

I laughed and I laughed. I couldn't stop laughing. I laughed so much my ribs we hurting and I sat up hunching over laughing.

He sat up as well and wrapped his arm around me, "What's so funny?" He asked. 

"You called me perfect." I said. 

"And I meant it." His voice went from normal to serious in a matter of seconds.
