Almost is Never Enough (Ariana Grande and Nathan Sykes)

Chapter 5 - Can't Sleep

Nathan's POV

We just got back to the hotel and now I'm laying in my bed. I stared at the ceiling thinking about one person, Ariana Grande. I love her so much I wish she would feel the same way.

I heard the sound of someone knocking on my door. I jumped out of the bed and ran to the door of the hotel room. I looked through the eye peephole and saw a very sad looking Ariana. I quickly unlocked the door and pulled it open. As soon as she saw me she jumped into my arms for a hug. I heard her start to sob.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

"You know when you are about to sleep and you just think about everything bad that's happened to you? Well that's what's wrong." She responded with tears rolling down her face.

"What do you mean Ari?"

"The breakup. I can't stop thinking about it." She said now sobbing.

"Shh it's going to be ok. I promise."

I hugged her tight and buried my face in her hair. We stayed like this for a long time until she said that she was tired. She walked toward the door and walked out saying a quick tired goodbye. I shut the door behind her and walked back into the hotel room. As soon as I sat on the couch there was a knock on the door. I hopped of the couch and walked over to the door and opened it, I saw Ariana. She flashed me a nervous smile and said,

"This is going to sound kind of weird but I don't want to stay by myself so could I maybe stay with you tonight?"

"Yeah of course." I grabbed her hand and pulled her in the room.

She walked into the bedroom, hopped into the large bed and snuggled under the covers.

"I'll be out there if you need me." I said gesturing to the living area.

"No, stay here sleep with me. I don't want to be alone."

I hesitated before I got into bed. "Are you sure cause I can sleep on the couch it doesn't bother me." I told her.

"Yes I'm sure now go to sleep." she said with a small smile on her face.

I laughed and got into bed. Ariana looked like she was trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in, as she did that she naturally started to get closer to me. I felt a swoop of butterflies in my stomach when she finally found how she wanted to sleep. She was about a centimetre away from me with her back to me. I suddenly felt the urge to put my arm around her but fought it. A few minuets later I heard soft snores, she must be sleeping. I wrapped my arm around her waist and fell asleep with a smile on my face.

Ariana's POV

I woke up my hotel room wait this isn't my room it's Nathan's. I rolled over and saw Nathan sleeping peacefully beside me. I slipped out of bed and walked into the kitchen. I pawed through the fridge trying to find something to eat.

"Hungry?" I heard a sleepy voice ask.

"Yeah, very." I said with a smile.

"I think there are some strawberries and yogurt in there." He said pointing to the fridge.

I looked again and sure enough there was exactly what he said in there.

"I'm going to shower I'll be quick." Nathan exclaimed.

I nodded my head and grabbed two bowls, two spoons and some glasses. I put scoops of yogurt with a handful of strawberries in the bowls and orange juice in the glasses.

I sat down at the table and ate my breakfast. I heard someone coming down the short hallway and turned around to see Nathan looking as perfect as always. He sat down at the table and began eating.

"Sleep well?" He asked.

"Surprisingly yes." I said replying to his question.

I always feel safe with Nathan that's probably why I slept so well. I haven't been sleeping well since the break up so last night it felt amazing to only wake up a couple times and actually feel safe and loved my someone other than my family.
