Oh what a dangerous addition you are

Chapter 3

~Lyla's POV~

After half an hour returned back to my house. I'm guessing while I was lost in my thoughts I agreed to Wynter and River staying over at my house tonight. They were just trying to keep my mind off Alexzander as much as they could which I was grateful for their concern, but nothing would keep me from feeling the ache of missing him so much.

We walked in and I looked up at the wall to see it was midnight with that I knew my parents would have been in bed hours ago since they hated staying up real late.

Luka went into the kitchen writing a note on the fridge that we returned home safely also that River and Wynter were staying over. Wynter took my hand as she gave River a kiss goodnight then took me up to my room.

We changed into sweatpants and into our "best friends forever" shirts we made as children. It had become a tradition that any time we went to either one's house we always slept in our shirts so the next day insured that we would still be the bestest of friends.

As if I was in on auto pilot I crawled onto the right side of my bed and grabbed a pillow cuddling into imagining it as my dear Alexzander. I jump up to feeling the other side of my bed dipping to see it was only Wynter getting into bed with a sad face I lay back into the pillow sniffling a little.

"Oh, Lyla I'm sorry I wasn't who you expected... I can sleep downstairs if you need me to."

"No... No please stay in here with me. It's just I keep hoping he will appear any second to make all this pain go away. I just miss him like crazy Wynnie I don't understand how just a few minutes with him can feel so brief but not being with him can feel like endless years." 

She leans over giving me a kiss on my forehead, "I don't know what you are feeling since I am new to this mate thing and mine is just in the room beside us. I do know what it is like to miss someone. I promise though he will come back girl till then it is my duty to keep my Lyla bear cheerful."

"Thanks, I don't know what I would do without you as my best friend. I love you, Wynter."

"I love you too Lyla. Now let's go to sleep we gotta go on our annual birthday shopping trip tomorrow to help you find some fun things to wear for Alexzander if you know what I mean."

She winks at me making me hit her with my pillow she was always a dirty minded person. We both laugh as we pull the covers over us,

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight Lyla. Have sweet dreams of your prince charming just try to keep it down I don't wanna know what you guys do in the bedroom let alone in your dreams. You are bad about taking in your sleep." I laugh and fall asleep with a smile on my face thanks to Lyla's sillyness. 

As I woke up I reached over to check my phone as I did every morning, but this time I discovered I had a text from an unknown number.

Good morning baby girl,

I realized last night after I left I hadn't gotten your number. Luckily I had Rivers so he gave me it so I decide to leave you a sweet surprise for you to wake up to. If I woke you I am very sorry but it's not like you need beauty sleep when you are the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on. 

I know we only just found each other but I can already tell that I am falling for you with every second that gorgeous smile of yours appears in my mind. Lyla, I miss you so much that my heart aches like crazy. I would be there for a second to see you but it seems that the rogue problem was worse than I thought. It may take me a couple days to fix it before I am able to stow away to you.
