Trust Me

Chapter 22:

My eyes fluttered open. The sound of a vibrating phone echoed through the almost silent room.

Rubbing my eyes, I sat up and looked around the room. The vibrating was coming from Tonys sweater pocket.

His eyes drearily opened as I nudged him.

"Your phone is ringing." I sniffled.

He pulled it out of his pocket, looked at the name, then put it back. Slowly, his eye lids closed once again.

I got off the couch, stretching high and letting out a yawn. I shivered as I walked towards my room. Quickly, I jumped into my bed, tucking myself in.

The warmth of the covers made me feel happy. But my room seemed so quiet and uninteresting compared to the bonus room. Probably because it had food, TV show marathons, and a cute boy in it.

Although I wanted to go back, everything in me told me to stay in the comfy bed.

"Tony," I called.

No reply. Then again, he was asleep.

Sighing, I grabbed my pillows an blanket, and made my way back into the bonus room.

TONYS POV

I opened my eyes, letting out a slight yawn. Brooke came into the bonus room wrapped like a burrito in a big blanket. She carried a few pillows too.

I don't think she realized that I was awake because she didn't acknowledge me.

She placed the pillow on the opposite side of the couch, then laid down. The blanket was large enough to get me into it.

She let out a few coughs and sniffles before finally falling asleep again. Her slight snores filled the rooms silence.

This was how we were spending our one year. Sitting in a bonus room, wrapped in blankets, surrounded by food and watching TV marathons.

I smiled as I watched Brooke move close to me, then fall asleep on my chest.

BROOKES POV

I couldn't fall asleep. Although I had a pillow and blanket, I couldn't get myself to fall asleep once again.

Tony was still asleep. I decided that it'd be a good idea to move closer to him and ditch the pillow. I ended up laying on his chest.

He took deep breaths. I could feel his chest move up and down with each inhale and exhale.

"I can't believe it's been a year." I said to myself as I stared at the turned of TV.

"Me too," Tony laughed.

"I thought you were asleep." I coughed.

"I thought you were asleep."

"I couldn't fall back asleep, so I moved here." I said, poking my finger onto his chest.

"Your voice sounds so nasally. It's funny." He let out a small laugh before taking my hair and attempting to braid it.

"You're gonna get so sick after today, you know that right?" I smiled.

"I know. It's all worth it though."

"My personal apologies if you do get sick." I replied as I sat up and tried to untangle the numerous knots Tony put into my hair.

I looked down, trying to reach the knots at the bottom back of my hair.

"It's okay," he said simply, tapping my chin with his finger, tilting my head up. "I'll just do this so I can blame myself."

He smiled before moving his face closer to mine, kissing me.

"I love you, Brooke." He whispered, resting his forehead on mine.
