After Pictionary it was about 10 pm and our moms decided to go to a bar closely, leaving me and Alden alone. He was watching tv and I decided to go in our room and play on my guitar while singing. I was playing and singing along to 'r u mine' by Arctic monkeys with that song in the background. I forgot Alden was home aswel and just let go of myself singing as loudly as I could. I stopped once I realized he was in the same room as me.
"No continue. Just keep it down will ya."
I didn't pick up my guitar the rest of the day because I was too embarrassed. At 11 pm I wanted to take a quick shower before going to bed. While I was in the shower Alden walked in the bedroom I got scared knowing Alden was in the room besides where I am and also knowing I forgot my towel.
"Alden?"
"What?"
"Could you bring my towel I forgot it."
To make it worse there wasn't a shower curtain so if he had walked in there he would've seen me naked. Luckily he opened the door the slightest bit just so his hand could fit trough and he dropped the towel in the bathroom.
I came out of the bathroom with just my towel around me and when I was about to take my clothes from the bedroom floor I saw that Alden was sitting on the bed. I took my clothes as fast as I could and ran to the bathroom with them. I got changed and started putting pillows and blanket on the floor. It was storming. Just like I'm afraid of dogs I am afraid of storms. I couldn't sleep all night and I was turning every 10 seconds partly because the floor was uncomfortable and partly because of the storm.
"Will you just please get into the bed and lay still!"
He yelled annoyed by the sound of the floor cracking every time I moved. I got into the bed but the thunder scared me and I flinched. The storm settled down and I fell asleep, of course I didn't stay asleep because the storm quickly resumed. I got scared and started making weird noises. I felt his hand on my hip.
"It's okay it's just a bit of thunder."
His hand helped me calm down for a bit until the next lightning came right next to the window. I curled up into the tinniest ball and started to talk to myself a bit. He moved closer to me. Now he was holding my entire waist with his chest pressed against my back, his other hand in my hair.
"It's okay just try and get some sleep."
His voice comforted me and I fell asleep. I woke up and in the night I moved a bit so now our foreheads were laying against eachother. Both my hands were pressed against his chest. One of his hands still in my hair while the other one still on my hip. He woke up.
"Morning"
His voice deeper than usual. His eyes barely opening. I didn't understand. He hates me all his live, one day he starts acting nice to me, after a month he ignored me for 2 months and now he's doing this? Honestly I didn't really care anymore, it felt nice laying that close to him. I yawned while pressing my head on his chest so he wouldn't see me yawn.
"Did you sleep good"
"Alright, thanks to you"
And I closed my eyes again. I wanted to check the clock that is hanging above the bed to check the time because we have to eat breakfast together at 9 am. When I moved my head towards the clock I could barely read 8:30 before he let go of my hip and with that hand he moved my chin so we would look at eachother again. Knowing he likes to take a shower before eating breakfast I said.
"If you want to take a shower you should do it now, breakfast is in 30 minutes."
He sighed and got up to shower. I realized I had to pee right after I heard the water turn on. I knocked on the door.
"Hey Alden I have to pee do you mind taking your towel and covering yourself up for a sec." The water turned off so I walked in and peed very quickly while he was looking the other way. He was ready in around 10 minutes and he came downstairs to join me and our moms for breakfast.
