Axel's pov:
I was awoken by screaming, I looked around my room trying to find what the sound came from then I heard more screaming it was coming from the guest room where Louise was, without another thought I got out of bed and ran to her room she was asleep moving around and still screaming she was having a nightmare I walked over to her and gently shook her "Louise, hey wake up, you're okay" I kept repeating trying to wake her up, she shot up from the bed "hey, hey it's me, you're okay" I said trying to calm her down, the door to the guest bedroom opened and my mum and Felix walked "What's going who was screaming" she asked obviously being woken up as well, I looked back to Louise and gor up walking to my mum "she had a nightmare, I'll stay with her until she falls back to sleep, you and Felix can go back to sleep" I whispered to my mum "she looked behind me at Louise concern on her face "ok, come get me if you guys need anything" she said and walked out I turned back around to see Louise looking at "are you ok?" I asked softly "yeah, I'm okay it was just a dream" she said I don't know if she was trying to convince me or herself "can you just stay for a little please?" She asked me "yeah okay" I said and pulled the chair in the corner next to the bed, I sit down and watched as she layed back down on the bed turning to face me "thank you" she said as she grabbed my hand that was laying on the bed and gently squeezed it "it's okay, just try and get some sleep we have school tomorrow" I said and continued to hold her hand as she fell asleep, I stayed up for a couple more hours to make sure nothing happens then finally fell asleep myself resting my head on her bed and her hand still in mine.
Louise's pov
I woke up by light shining in my face, i tried rolling over but couldn't because my hand was stuck I looked over to see Axel holding my hand in his as he slept on what likes a very uncomfortable chair, confusion hits me as I try to remember why he's in here then memories of last night hit me I had a nightmare, I can't of, he's gonna ask questions now about why and nobody knows what happened but my mum and brother, I carefully peel my hand out of his, I grabbed my phone and checked the time it was 7:40 crap we're gonna be late for school and my brother's most likely gonna go tell my mum, I got out of the bed and flicked Axel's head "oi wake up, we have 15 minutes until school starts" I say to him "why the fuck did you have to flick my head" he says getting up out the chair "because I needed to wake you up" I replied and walked out of the room with him "I could think of a nicer way that you could wake me up" he says walking into his room and closes the door, I walk into the bathroom and lock the door getting ready, I put on my black leggings from yesterday but keep the hoodie that Axel gave me on, I brush my teeth and hair before walking out I go back into the guest room and grab my phone from the charger I check the time it's now 7:52 so we're definitely gonna be late I go downstairs where Axel is already waiting in the kitchen "you ready to go" he asks when he sees me walk in "yep" I say as I pick my bag up from where I left it yesterday I head out the door and into his car and wait for him, "can we get a coffee before school" I ask as he gets in the car, he gives me a look "were already gonna be late at least be late som energy" I say he just nods in response and drives.

I walk into my first class of the day which is chemistry, as I open the door and walk in all eyes turn towards me I put my head down and walk to the back of the classroom where Jacob is sitting "I didn't expect you to show up" he says as I sit down "I wasn't going to but I couldn't just leave you all alone could I" I replied we continued talking until the bell rang signalling it was time to go to period 2 which was English, I walked halfway there then turned around and starred heading towards the back of the school to just skip the period not really up to go to that class I put my earphones in and sit with my back against the wall closing my eyes just for a second, as my eyes was closed I could feel a stinging pain in the side of my stomach, I opened my eyes and looked down "it was just my imagination" I say to myself trying to calm myself down, I sit here listening to music and playing on my for the next period.
