Blue Eyed Bambi

Ch.7

I wake up at 3:30 am to feel thrashing next to me, "Stop!" I hear Kaden shout. What is he talking about?

"Kaden... Kaden wake up," I say, gently pushing against his shoulders. I decide to not slap or throw water at him because the last thing I want is for him to get mad. With another hard shove Kaden finally wakes up with wide eyes, suddenly pulling me to him.

Feeling as this isn't the best time to talk I lay on his chest silently. His breathing is heavy and his body gleams with sweat. His muscles tighten as I lay my hand flat on his chest. "Are you... okay?" I ask after his breathing calmed down.

It feels uncomfortable to be comforting someone that you've known your whole life, but barely know. Although I do enjoy the scenario, I don't know what this means for us.

"Sometimes I wish I didn't know how to dream. All I remember are bad memories ," Kaden quietly said, I am beyond confused with this boys random mutterings.

Looking up I gently stroke Kadens cheek, "Thats why you have to remember the good memories," I say trying to comfort him.

"Thats the problem, I don't have any."

"Well, I guess you have to make new good memories," I say propping myself up onto the bed.

"This cruel world doesn't deserve a beautiful girl like you Willa."

I feel my heart flutter, deciding not to respond to that. I already know tomorrow Kaden's going to be the closed off jerk he always is. So I guess I just have to make this moment last.

Laying down next to him again, all I can feel is the heat between us. I never want this feeling to go away.

Waking up I notice I'm not in my bed, oh yeah.. last night happened. I look at my surroundings, Kadens room is clean, not really having a theme. I try to get out of his bed to explore but then I feel Kadens arm still around my torso.

My heads pounding and I can feel the burning in my throat, never drinking again.

"Kaden wake up," I say gently.

Kaden's eyes flutter open and he grins slightly, "Willa you're a mess in the morning."

I scowl untangling myself from him and stand up, Kaden of course stays in bed.

Looking up I wonder if I should speak first or if he should, I mean I did sleep in his bed last night. Which probably means nothing to Kaden since he most likely has girls over all the time.

"I'm sorry about waking you up last night," he mutters quietly.

"It's ok Kaden, I just wish you would tell me what happened," Kaden shakes his head and digs his palms into his eyes.

"I would if could Willa, I would if I could..." he breaths out. His eyes are red and his muscles are tense. Even though he didn't have as much alcohol as me last night, his body seems more shut down than mine.

After a few minutes of Kaden laying on his bed with closed eyes and me just staring at him I finally decide to break the awkward silence, well awkward to me silence.

"I should probably get going soon," I blurt out, I expect him to say I should stay but instead he does the exact opposite.

"Yeah maybe you should..."

I nod my head and grab my stuff off the floor, I reach inside my purse and search for who to call for a ride.

"Hey I can drive you if you need a ride," Kaden says almost as if he had read my mind.

I would of disagreed but I really didn't have a choice, my mom would have been furious being called from work and Bella and Finn are probably not going to wake up even if I try to call them. I mean it's only 9 am and it's a saturday.
