Esmeray
I woke up to the sun shining on my face. I shift around on the soft couch and snuggle into the firm pillow while turning away from the sun.
I was about to go back to sleep when I heard a groan from beside me. I opened my eyes to see what that was and to my surprise it was Killian.
He had his arms around my waist and some of my hair on his forehead. I had one of my legs over his, my head on his shoulder very close to his face and my arm was around his torso.
I carefully removed my hair from his forehead so he doesn't wake up. He looks so peaceful when sleeping.
He scrunched his face slightly because of the light. Without thinking, I put my over his face to block the light and his face relaxed. I stayed like that for a while, admiring him and his beauty before finally snapping out of it.
I put my hand down when I saw his eye twitch a little bit. I pretend to just wake up by yawning. I tried to get out of his grip but he tightened it, pulling me even closer to him if that's even possible.
"Don't. You will fall." He said in his husky voice, which was extra deep from just waking up.
I don't say anything and just stay still for a little bit before getting up. I looked around to see that Liam was still sleeping like a starfish on the beanbag. I shake my head and start looking for my phone.
I forgot to tell anyone that I will be staying over so they are probably very worried. I find my phone and see that there are 100 missed calls and 150 messages, from everyone telling me to come home or to call them this instant.
I sent a quick text to Emilio saying 'I am fine and that I fell asleep at my friend's place.' To which he replied with an 'ok and come home soon.'
"Morning," I said to Killian, who was now up and on his phone.
"Morning. How did you sleep?" He's asked.
"Good. I am gonna go freshen up." I say and walk out of the room to the guest bathroom.
I wash my face and brush my teeth with a spare toothbrush. I brush my hair and walk out to the kitchen for breakfast.
I make some scrambled eggs, avocado toast, and coffee for all of us. By the time the coffee is done, they both come into the kitchen.
Liam had woken up but still looked half asleep with messy hair. Killian had changed into his usual black pants, shirt with a couple of buttons open, and his silver chain with his initial. We sat down talking and eating breakfast.
After we were done, I decided to leave since I still had to deal with my family at home. They are probably going to eat my ear off with their 'it is very dangerous speech.'
I didn't have to change since yesterday before coming here I had changed into something more comfortable, which was my sweats and a tank top. I did however borrow Killian's hoodie since it was kinda chilly outside.
I slowly drove home knowing that I would be bombarded with questions as soon as I stepped inside.
When I got there, I carefully made my way towards the stairs, but to my luck, Roman saw me.
"Where have you been? Do you have any idea how worried we were?!" He yelled. Damm bro! No need to yell. I am right in front of you.
The rest of the family came here after hearing the yelling. Great! More people. Note the sarcasm.
"What is going on here?" Aunt Val asked.
"Oh Esmeray, your back! Where have you been sweetie? We were really worried about you." She said hugging me.
"Yeah, we thought something had happened to you," Lorenzo added.
"Sorry for scaring you guys. I was at a friend's place and I fell asleep there." I say and try to make my way upstairs. Keyword: try.
"That's fine, but honey you have to let us know where you are at. With everything going on, we don't want anything to happen to you." Grandma said.
"I will. Now can I go to my room?" I asked and they nodded.
As I was two steps up the stairs, Roman pulled me back. Two steps!
"Wait! Hold on a second! Is that a guy's hoodie?" He asked. Shit!
"What? No." I say trying to cover it up. I am not in the mood for another lecture today.
"Yes, it is! It is way too big for you and it smells like cologne. Men's cologne." He said after sniffing me. What the fuck? Is he a dog?
"It is my friend's hoodie. I borrowed it cuz I was cold." I say trying to dismiss it.
"No who is this guy? Did you sleep with him? Is that why you were not here last night? Tell me his name right now. How dare he sleep with my little sister!" He said angrily.
What the heck! Where is he even coming from with that conclusion? Oh God, save me!
"I did not sleep with him. Did you not hear what I just said? I fell asleep 'cause I was tired."
"Ah ha! Got you! So you do admit you were with a guy all night? Who is he?" He said pointing to me like a child. What is he 10?
"That is not what is said at all. Stop putting words in my mouth." I am starting to get annoyed.
"But you did say that you did not sleep with him. That means that you were with a guy last night. Now you better tell me who he is or I-"
"Or you will what? Threaten him? Torture him? Kill him perhaps? Well, you can't because it is none of your business who I hang out with, so stay out of it." I say cutting him off and then walking upstairs.
Finally! Peace.
