Perdóname ~ A Prince Royce Fanfiction

22 ~ Fantasy or Reality

(I won't put a POV unless its someone besides Alex)

I woke up in Abel's arms. Slowly, I tried pushing his hands away from me.

"Stay," he mumbled through my hair.

"You're supposed to be asleep you cheater," I tucked my hand back inside the covers where my hand met his hand. He curled my hand in his so literally every inch of my body was covered by his.

"I was waiting for you to wake up."

"I need to go," I tried pushing him off but the more I did, the tighter he held me "Why are you doing this Abel? It's not like I've never left you while you're asleep."

"Because I WANT you to stay this time."

I looked at him in confusion. This was all too bizarre. First he tells me he fucks bitches and leaves. Then he's over here trying to force me to stay with him? And I thought I suffered from bipolar feelings.

"I can't stay. What time is it?"

"Four in the morning."

"I need to get home," Abel's weight lessened on me and I was finally sitting on his bed with my bare back to him.

"Can't you just stay til the morning?"

I turned to look back at him "It is the morning."

"I mean around seven or eight."

"Why?"

"I want you to stay," he started drawing little patterns on my back. His fingers reached my tickle spots which caused me chills. He finally started playing with my hair. I don't know what was up with this guy but I couldn't deny the fact that his company was better than no company. I turned around and slowly collapsed into his arms.

"Okay," I whispered. His chin rested on my head while his arms rested on my waist.

"Tell me more about your tattoo."

"It's a dream catcher."

"Captain Obvious."

I giggled "And uh--- I was eighteen when I got it made. It took me about a year's worth of working at some little Dominican restaurant to pay this baby off. I got it made in New York. Took about three sessions. It wasn't as painful as everyone says but it doesn't feel very pleasant."

"Why'd you get it?"

"So many reasons."

"Like?"

"It was an act of courage. Like I was a boss. I was in charge of myself. I had an--- odd boyfriend all through high school. He was my one and only."

"Odd? How?"

"I guess odd isn't the word. More like abusive. In all the possible ways."

"How can someone abuse you?"

"They just did. I got the tattoo because when you see a person with a tattoo you automatically think 'Oh this person shouldn't be messed with' or 'Oh they'll beat the hell outta me if I wrong them.' So I went in there and at that point in my life, Geoffrey and I were scheduled to leave to Florida in two days. One of my dreams was to go out of New York. So in a way I catch dreams while accomplishing them."

"I see," he replied. I stayed quiet until the silence was a comfort. I was drifting off to sleep when I felt Abel moving around. My eyes slightly opened and I heard something like the sound in a scary movie when the scary part is about to happen.

Ohhh yea, ohhh yea ehhhhh
Ohh yea
Hope you see
It won't mean a thing to me
I've been doing this too long
Baby girl I've felt it all
So watch out
If you try to play your luck
Aint nobody gonna care enough
To catch you fall
