~Thomas' POV~
When James came downstairs and started to make tea, I felt the need to tell him everything. He's calm and collected and he understands all sorts of people. "I think her mom and dad died and she ran away..I mean I know we were strangers but.."
"What gave you that idea?" James looked at me, a rasp to his voice. He seriously just woke up. "Last night she had a nightmare so she came in my room, she was sleep talking about it." I stretched. The gentle giant put a spoonful of honey in his tea. "You can't blame her for have lying, we were strangers." He said. I nodded slightly, tapping and resting my head on my hand.
"You think she was gonna tell us."
"I don't doubt it."
"Should I be mad?"
"Not really."
"Is it bad to be a little upset on the inside."
"No but you have to understand her own point of view." James pointed out, taking a sip of the tea. He was right. He was right most of the time. I should understand her own point of view. It'd be wrong of my not to.
Damn Thomas, she's turned you into a real sucker hasn't she.
I tapped rapidly, waiting for (Y/N) to wake up and come downstairs.
Just..
Waiting...
GOD I HATE WAITING
~Your POV~
I woke up, not in my own bed, but Thomas'. I forgot I had come in here last night..
I sat up, wiping the hair from my eyes. I had a nightmare...a different one. They had shot Thomas in the chest. I begged him not to leave, like my parents but..I was too late.
I got up and I walked downstairs. Thomas looked at me. He looked a bit angry, but at the same time he looked concerned. "Are you okay?" I asked, walking over. He shrugged, frowning. "Confused."
"Why?"
"You."
"You're confused about me?"
"You lied."
I felt my stomach drop. He wasn't talking about...no he couldn't be.
"You're not a maid are you?" Thomas arched a brow.
I rubbed my arm. Busted... I shake my head slowly.
"Were you ever gonna tell me?"
"Yes I was I swear I just-"
"Your Nightmares, what were they about?"
I stayed quiet.
Was this his anger I'm meeting? Was he trying to understand? I wasn't sure...but I had to tell him now..
