Chapter 6 Safe in his arms

your pov

My eyes slowly flickered open and found an unfamiliar room. Looking around I found a neatly kept room. The comforter and sheets on top of me were navy blue with different cream designs on it. The walls were a cream color along with the carpet. There was a dark brown nightstand at either side of the bed. There was a door at the end of the wall at my left and double doors right in front of me leading to a bathroom. A big window at the right wall was the only light that came into the room. The windows had navy see threw curtains with cream designs on them.

While looking around I found a figure on their knees next to the bed with their face in the sheets arms crossed over their head. My eyes were a little fuzzy so i could hardly see. I tried to see who it was when i heard a voice.

"This is all my fault..."

I listened to the voice with shock realizing it was Brandon...crying.

I slowly reached my and out to pet his hair making him flinch and look up. His eyes were puffy and red as if he was crying a lot. He had bags under his eyes as if he hadn't slept. He looked down right miserable.

"Y-y/n?" he stuttered tears dripping down his face.

Taking my hand i cupped his cheek weakly. I was so tired. I could barely stay awake. I brushed his cheek with my thumb and looked over his shoulder and saw a woman in light blue hospital scrubs. That must be his Aunt Christy. I thought. I tried to sit up making her rush over too me to gently push me back down.

"Please dear you shouldn't move you umm...lost a lot of blood..." she said in a sorrowful manner.

I looked down back at the wrap around my arm. What is wrong with me? She probably thinks I'm crazy now. Brandon looked at her softly making her nod and walk out of the room. I looked down at my arm picking it up off the bed letting my fingers graze over the cloth.

"Y/n...please look at me..." I heard Brandon say in a hurt voice.

Slowly turning my head to look at him tears threatening to spill out I met his eyes.

"I know yo probably think I betrayed you Y/n but...believe me I didn't want to do it she forced me to do it..."

A single tear rolled down my left cheek as he said this. That bitch always wants to see me suffer.

"...Y/n I love you and only you don't ever forget that..." he said placing his hand on my cheek and rubbing the tear away with his thumb.

I simply nodded. He didn't know her she's just another stuck up cheerleader to him. He brought his hand slowly to the back of my head his other hand on my right hand and kissed my forehead. He held my hand and brought my head to his neck in a gentle hug.

"I'm so sorry...I wasn't thinking straight...she said if I resisted she would hurt you" he told me guiltily.

Slowly I brought my arms behind him lazily draping my arms around him gripping his shirt. I had no words to say. I was feeling a mixture of emotions anger, sadness, regret, hatred, guiltiness ...the list goes on. My guilt taking over I started to cry saying I'm sorry over and over again.

Brandon soon crawled into the bed and wrapped his arms around me ,careful to watch my arms, pulling me to his chest. He whispered soothing things in my ear while stroking my hair.

"you're so beautiful"
"I'll always protect you"
"your hair is so soft"
"I'll never leave you"
"you're so precious to me"
"I love you so much"

Holding onto his chest lightly i began to call asleep hearing his soothing voice.

Brandon's pov

I looked down at Y/n seeing she was asleep. Smiling slightly I took off my shoes and got under the covers with her. I pulled her close to my chest and kissed her on top of her head lightly.

"I'll never let go"
