Love At First Sight

Chapter 22

Justin's POV

Finally got the house to myself. Demi's gone out to do whatever...I'm just gonna chillax.

Later on the day...

I just spend my day in my PJ's watching movies and eating popcorn, listening to music and tweeting some beliebers. I'm missing Demi...she'll be back soon.

About half an hour, I heard the car drive into the driveway. I hear the keys unlocking the door and a soaking wet Demi trudge into the house with two huge TopShop bags in her hands.

"Dems baby, what happened? You're completely drenched." I get up and stand near her.

"The weather turned on me and I wasn't prepared, that's what happened. I was just walking around before I went into Topshop and then the skies started crying and I never took my umbrella or jacket out with me so it's kinda my fault..." Demi explained to me as she set her bags and my keys down. I nodded at her understanding.

She continued, "So I got soaked, and before I got to the car, a huge truck drove past me going at full speed and drove right into a massive puddle and got me even more wet. I just wanted to cry then and there. My makeup's running everywhere, I'm freezing cold, I can feel a cold coming on and I'm just really worn out and sleepy and I just don't feel great right now." She won't stop sneezing and coughing.

"Aww baby, it's okay. Don't worry. I know what to do. You get changed out of your wet clothes and put on your PJ's. I'll make you a hot chocolate to warm you up. I'll even put extra marshmallows and whipped cream in it. I'll get us some blankets to keep us extra warm. I'll go make you some popcorn if you want. Just for you. Pick a movie of your choice, doesn't matter what it is. I'm here for you, beautiful." I told her.

I see her pout her lips at me and tear up a little. Uh oh, what have I done now?

"What's wrong Dems, did I do something wrong? Why are you crying?" I say, using my thumb to wipe her tears.

"Sorry J, no it's not bad. It's happy tears. I'm just slightly overwhelmed with all the love. You're the most considerate, selfless guy I've ever met in my life. Thank you so much." she replies, sniffling. She sneezed once more.

"Any time...and bless you, beautiful. Now, why don't you go get changed and I'll go get everything set up for you. I'll be waiting." I said to her. She nodded and smiled at me and went upstairs.

I get a couple blankets and put them on the sofa. I go into the kitchen and make her hot chocolate. I make myself a glass of water and I put some marshmallows and spray whipped cream in her cup. I put them both on the living room table. I go back to the kitchen to do the popcorn and within two minutes it's done. 

I bring the bowl into the living room and dim down the living room lights. Sets the mood more, I think. I sit and wait for my angel to come downstairs. 5 minutes later, I hear her slowly come down the stairs and smile at me. 

"Hey beautiful, feel a bit better now that you've got dry clothes now?"

"Definitely, being in wet clothes is horrible. Anyway, I'm okay now. I'll pick a movie. Silver Linings Playbook?"

"It's up to you, beautiful. Whatever you wanna watch I'll watch too."

"Okay Silver Linings it is-" Demi let out three big sneezes. My poor angel. She quickly put the DVD in and sat beside me. I smiled at her and she gave me a weak smile in return. I put the blankets on her, making sure she was covered and not too cold.

"Bless you, beautiful. I made your hot chocolate, I hope you like it. It should warm you up a bit more." 

I saw her try to unwrap herself from the blankets and reach for the cup. I put my hand on her, signalling that I'll get it for her.

"Thank you. Justin, I may not be well but that doesn't mean my arms don't work-" she told me in her tired voice.

"Sssh beautiful, here. Be careful, it's hot. The movie's starting..." I say quietly laughing and give the cup to her carefully.

The movie had ended and the credits were showing. 

"Jennifer Lawrence is so amazing, I love her. I think she do more films like this, right Dems? Demi?" I whispered looking at the screen before turning my attention to Demi. There's no reply She must've fallen asleep during the movie. My baby's all worn out. I get up and turn off the light completely and clean up the living room. I take out the DVD, put it back in it's case, turn off the TV and unwrap Demi for all her blankets. I carry her up the stairs and gently tuck her into bed. I give her a kiss on the forehead.

"Sweet dreams, beautiful. I love you." I whisper into her ear and she moves forward towards me. I wanna be closer to her but I need to keep my distance at the same time to avoid catching her cold. Oh well. I run my fingers through her hair and shut my eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.
