I Slept with Clay Matthews

Chapter 8.

I woke up in the middle of the night with the familiar nauseous feeling. I jumped off of the couch, and ran to the bathroom to empty my stomach. I honestly don't know how I still have anything left in me to throw back up. I laid on the floor for a few minutes making sure I was done throwing up, then went to the sink, and brushed my teeth. After brushing my teeth I walked back out to where everyone was sleeping. Aaron, and Olivia had sprawled out on the couch, and Clay had his chair reclined, and was passed out. I'm guessing Aaron, and Clay fell asleep during the movie, because the TV was still on, and Netflix was left up. I smirked, and grabbed the blanket Olivia had brought out for me earlier, and climbed in Clays' chair with him. He moved a little, and wrapped his arm around me. I snuggled up with him. 

"Clay." I whispered he didn't move though. "Babe?" I said again, but louder this time, and poked his face. I think I accidentally scared him, because he jumped, but then he saw it was just me, and calmed down. 

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Will you lay in the bed with me?" I asked him he smiled, and nodded. 

"Yeah, come on." He said we both got out of the chair, and I grabbed the blanket while he grabbed the pillow I left on the couch, and we entered his room. I laid in the bed, but he had to use the restroom first. When he came out he wrapped his arms around me. 

"Clay?" I asked. 

"Yeah?" He replied. 

"What are we?" I asked turning in his arms to face him. Even though it was dark I could still see. 

"What do you mean?" He asked tucking a piece of hair behind my ear.

"Like we are obviously having a kid together, but is that all we are, or are we something more than that?" I asked. 

"You mean like dating?" He asked. 

"Yeah, like when people ask me do I answer yeah I have a boyfriend, or do I say no he's just the dad?" I asked. 

"If anyone asks you say you have a boyfriend who will kick their ass if they try to mess with you or touch you." He said kissing my forehead I smiled. 

"So, then I can tell people that my boyfriend is Clay Matthews?" I asked he chuckled.

"Yes, you can tell people I'm your boyfriend, as long as I can tell people you're my girlfriend." He said. 

"Well duh, but nobody knows who I am, unlike you." I replied. 

"Give it time, you'll be all over the news, once the season starts." He said giving me an actual kiss. "Alright all three of us needs our beauty rest." He said laying his head on the pillows. I laid my head on his chest again, and closed my eyes....

"If you wake her up I swear I will hurt you." I heard Clay growl.

"I'm sorry!" Aaron said.

"Oh my god, lower your voice." Olivia replied.

"OK!" He said exasperated. 

"Aaron!" Clay said. At that exact moment I had to sneeze. Aaron started laughing. 

"Stooop." I said. 

"What was that?" He said in between laughs.

"That's how I sneeze!" I said. 

"You sneeze like a mouse." He exclaimed. 

"Shut up!" I said. I opened my eyes, and saw Aaron standing there.

"Did I hurt your feelings?" He asked. I just glared at him, Olivia started laughing. "I'll take that as a yes." He said walking away. I had to sneeze again, so I covered my head, and tried to sneeze into the blanket as quietly as I could, but of course Aaron still heard it.
