Roses ♢ Tanner Braungardt

3: Go to sleep, darling

Kasey's POV
The video was definitely very messy. But Taylor was right, Dylan is very cute.

But he's Tanner and my age so a little old for her.

Tanner still tried to show off for me every now and then, but sometimes he miserably failed. It was quite funny considering he recorded it all.

After filming the video, Taylor and I went up to her room.

We put in a film and settled onto her bed.

A little while into the film I drifted to sleep.

***

I heard light voices while my eyes were still closed.

A "Can you come pick her up? We have to bring her home and she fell asleep." I hear a girl's voice.

"Why can't she just stay here?" A boy's voice asks.

"She didn't ask her parents." The girl replies.

I want to open my eyes but I don't want them to know I'm awake.

I suddenly feel myself being picked up and my eyes shoot open.

I see that I'm in Tanner's arms. "You're really light." He says in almost a whisper, probably being aware of the fact that I'm still asleep.

I let out a small giggle as I lay my head back down resting on his arm.

He lifts my head up. "You can't fall back asleep. Especially not like that. Your neck will hurt like hell. Trust." He says.

I groan as I bury my neck in his chest. "Please don't take me home." I don't want to go home to my most-likely-drunk father.

"I know you don't want to leave me, but-" I cut him off.

"For once one thing might not be about you. I don't want to go home. Not because of you. Just because I don't want to." I pick my head up so I'm looking at him, and I just now realize we've moved into the hallway.

I remember that I just met Tanner today, and now he's carrying me around, one arm around my legs and the other behind my back, like you would hold a baby.

I fumble around, trying to get up. "Hey... you're tired. Just at least let me carry you back to bed." He's now whispering again. When I said my sentence, it looked like I hurt him. I didn't mean to offend him or hit his soul that much.

I wrap my arms around his neck and put my head back in his chest, not caring that we only met today. I'm tired. Deal with it.

I do trust Tanner. I don't say that often about guys.

"Fine." I mumble as he starts walking again.

I feel myself being laid down on a bed and the bed dip next to me a few seconds later.

I scooch towards the edge of the bed, not wanting to take up too much room, and snuggle to my own body.

-------------------------

Okay, so I know. This chapter was short, and it absolutely sucked. This was a filler chapter. Now I know I might get comments like "omg they just met today this is making it go super fast." Or "I thought she had trust issues. Why is she like this all of a sudden?" Okay so, like I said earlier, I trust Tanner. I don't say that often about guys. Yeah because she does have trust issues. She has this feeling toward Tanner where she knows she can trust him, and also they got to know each other a lot more while filming and cleaning up from the video.

Okay, anyways, I hope you enjoyed even though it sucked. I'm gonna start uploading more and more, it's just I'm reading loads of stories too and sometimes I just feel like reading and not writing 😢😢
Bye!!
