Kat POV: 

I awoke at first seemed extremely late as soon as I opened my eyes I shut them in pain of the bright light. However I discovered soon enough that the light in the den had turned on. It took me a while to figure out why. I mean I would never leave the light on and nobody else in the house would leave it on as they never go in there. This is when I heard coming from the den. I slid out of bed. My head was pounding and my face numb. I slowly walked to the door and peered through it. Sakina was curled up on the sofa her eyes tight shut. I didn't want to wake her so I hit the light off and shut the door as quietly as I could. I took my phone from the beside table. It was only 4 am according to my alarm clock. There was no way I was going to sleep so I pulled on my blue hoodie and fluffy slippers and headed downstairs. I remember everything you know...Cel not coming, me leaving and the others all finding me. I don't remember falling or what the endless speech my mum gave me was about but I guess that's for the best. I sat for a while on the sofa thinking about what happened till I decided to go outside to clear my head. I couldn't stand being inside I just wanted to scream about everything. Being as silent as humanly possible( which probably wasn't very quiet at all) I unlocked the door and stepped outside. Surprisingly it wasn't that cold .I continued through the garden and the gate which lead to the park behind my house. There I sat on the damp grass leaning against the wall. It was quiet, peaceful even, something I hadn't felt for a while. I checked the time again 4:45am. wow I've never been up this early and I mean never. Even when I went on holiday and we had to leave the house at 3am I stayed asleep until 10am. My dad had to carry me everywhere. So I might of only been eight then but that's not the point. I looked properly at my phone again. I have 20 texts and 5 missed calls. I looked through them a lot were just texts from everyone checking I was alright and asking how I was feeling. A lot of those were from Aidan and Chloe so I sent them both one explaining to them I was fine. What seemed like five minutes I just sat there wondering into space when I got a phone call. It was from an unknown number. Why was he ringing me at nearly 5am he shouldn't even know I was awake. "Hello ?" "Kat I'm so sorry" the voice sounded familiar but it I wasn't sure who it was. " Who is this ?" I asked. " I'm just so sorry this would of never of happened if..."I know that voice, I know it so well." What do you mean ?" I questioned." I heard what happened, He told me." The voice continued. This was starting to worry me who was I speaking to . "Who...Who are you ? " my voice cracking and going so very quiet I doubt the person even heard. " I would tell you but why don't I just show you." I was so confused." Huh? I don't get what you mean ?" I heard something rustle behind me. I stood still as if I would instantly become unnoticeable. "Turn around" said the voice. But not from the phone but from behind me. I cautiously turned to face the figure." I..I can't see you" I said.He stepped forwards his face glistening. What was doing here ? I stood frozen in shock. " what are you doing here ?" I asked him. He came closer." Richard he rang me as soon you got in the ambulance and told me everything" Still didn't explain it. " As soon he did I got out of work as quickly as I could and took the first plan I could get here." He explained. I know how he go here as in England but I meant why was he here in the park behind my house ? Why did he come back from America ? "But why Cel ? Why did you come ?" He looked at me. His hair still perfectly gel into position. " Because I you were hurt and it was all my fault, you were upset because of me. You are one of the most important people in my life Kat."I could feel my pale cheeks turning to a bright pink." I wanted to come in the first place you got too believe me." I did believe him. Not once have I not when I look in his eyes when he speaks. I could see the truth, the emotions he was feeling all through his deep brown eyes. As he'd been speaking he had got closer and closer until we were nearly touching. I wrapped my arms round him taking the warmth from his body.

Cel's POV: 

I held Kat in my arms keeping her close to me.I looked at her.Her hair was still the same golden brown with the occasional ginger strand.Her face looked the same minus the stitches in her cheek.Her arm was wrapped i a white bandage tied with a safety pin.I noticed that she was wearing fluffy blue slippers and PJ's with her favourite blue hoodie."Why you out here like in the park ?" She whispered.The truth was I don't know exactly why I just felt like she need someone's.I'd went to the hospital first but just I got there Richard texted me to tell me she was home safe and sound.I came round to her house when I couldn't sleep and saw the kitchen light turn on.I knew it was to risky to ring the door bell at this time so I walked round to park where I stayed till saw Kat come out her garden." because I needed to know for myself you were alright." I replied softly.She looked at me eyes tears dripping down her cheek.I took my hand wiping them away.I pushed her hair from her face and tucked it around her ear.She stood there her smile appearing from her disappearing sadness.It was getting colder and son enough it began to rain yet Kat didn't move a muscle.It got heavier.I took my coat off and draped over her shoulders."Come on let's get you back inside,I don want you getting sick"I began to walk towards her.She put her arm out straight,her hand placed in my chest."Do you love me ?" I lent towards her mouth quickly my lips pressed against hers I felt the smile form on her face.I pulled away dragging her into a hug.We walked through the garden back to her house.We had to be extremely quiet getting upstairs into her room without waking anyone.I've always liked Kat's room it's not too girly and pink like some girls rooms.It wasn't plain at all tho.The walls or what you could see of them were a baby blue.A mirror hangs from one which has dozens of photos of everyone which Jasmin took surrounding it.She has a big desk and a massive cupboard spilt into (one side clothes,one side other stuff)The rest of her walls are covered in posters and drawings shes done.Her bed sits nicely in the sort of the centre of the room against the back wall.I lay on her bed pillows propped behind me so I was half sitting.Kat curled up next to me talked for hours and for a while after we just lay there "Yes"i whispered."huh?" Yawned Kat " The answer to your question yes" "oh i love you Cel" I smiled and continued to play with her hair.After while she drifted off to sleep her head on my chest.She looks so beautiful while she sleeps. She always looks beautiful.My cute little Kat. She is mine now I know it's taken me a while to get the guts and realise how much I love her but now I have I m never letting her go. I was getting more and more tired "Sweet dreams beautiful,sweet dreams." I said as I kissed her forehead and then closed my eyes tight shut
