My Navy Man

Chapter 4-

Brayden's POV

I picked her up as she gripped onto me not making a move to let go. I carried her up the porch steps and Bentley opened the screen door for me.

I walked through the foyer, through the little hallway and then into the living room. Bentley and Chevy followed behind me. I bent down to lay her on the couch but she clamped onto me and didn't let go.

I glared at Chevy knowing its partly his fault she won't let go, he looked down at the floor ashamed. I pulled her back to me and sat on the couch with her in my lap.

I can't believe I'm going to have a girl around in the house. And she's not a one night stand girl. Shes living here, it's her house now too. I can't stand most girls. Every girlfriend I've ever had I broke up with because of them being clingy or annoying. The only girls I can handle is Laci and my mom.

Dani laid her head under my chin hiding her face from everybody. I don't see why though, she was still rapped in my jacket and was so small on my lap that you could hardly see her sitting there.

I laid my hands on her back firmly. She flinched at first thinking it might be someone else but I rubbed my thumb on her back and she calmed down. Her hands were still knotted in my shirt holding me close to her. Why the hell am holding her? I don't even know this girl but I have this reflex to protect her and not let anyone get close to her.

"Daniella I'm sorry I scared you I didn't mean to. You were asleep and we didn't want to wake you but we had to get you inside somehow" Chevy said sitting down next to me on the couch. I could feel her tense up and flinch as she pushed herself into me more.

I ran my thumb over her back again. "I think it's just time for everyone to go to bed and then we can all meet tomorrow when she's not so scared and tired" Bentley said.

We all nodded. "Bent you staying over?" I asked. "Yeah im taking the couch" he says. "No can do bro that's where Dani is sleeping. I don't have her room done yet". "Just have her sleep in your room man. It's only one night".

"Fine". Chevy looks at Dani one more time then goes down stairs where his room is. I pick her up and carry her to my room and close the door. I walk over go my bed and pull back the covers. This time when I go to put her down she lets go and crawls under the blanket hiding. I chuckle a little. "Nothing to be scared of princess it's just me and you now". I say. She peeks out and looks at the closed door then looks around my room.

My walls are red. I don't have much in my room, just a bed, dresser, closet, black couch, and 3 big windows. Oh and the connecting bathroom. I smirk at her. "You look like a little hippo hiding in the water". She throws my jacket at me and gives me a cute glare. I just chuckle some more.

I walk over to the light and turn it off and turn the fan on. I strip down to just my boxers and then realize, I have someone else in my bed. So I quickly put shorts on and climb into my cool bed.

I lay there trying to sleep but all I keep feeling is violent little damn shivers. "Stop shivering! Its warm outside no need to shiver!" I say grumpily. She shifts and moves away more.

After 10 minutes I finally fall into a deep sleep.

Dani's POV

"Stop shivering! Its warm outside no need to shiver!" Brayden almost yells at me. I shift and try holding in my shivers. After about 10 minutes he asleep so I crawl out of his bed. I jump off it, why the fuck is it so tall! Ugh I hate being short.

I walk across the wooden floor slowly not wanting it to creak and him wake up just to yell at me again. I think he's bipolar. I open his door and skip out to get a drink of water. I haven't had anything to drink since this morning when I got knocked down.

I hear my feet pad around the wooden floor trying to find the kitchen. When I finally find it someone is standing eating chips. I stop wide eyes. Maybe this is the guy that was holding me before, I think his name was Chevy.

"Whoa calm down. I'm Bentley, Brayden and Chevys friend" he says. I look at him and calm down. He doesn't look to scary. He has brown hair and light green eyes. He's pretty tall to.

I look around the kitchen. "What are you doing up this hour lil bit? Need something to drink?" he says grabbing a cup and filling it with water.

As he hands it to me I cock my head a little realizing his nickname for me. I nod my head in a way that says 'thank you'. "welcome" he says with a little smile. He didn't ask if I talked. Maybe he just ignored it.

Once I finished drinking the rest of the water I hand the cup to him and turn to go back to Brayden's room. I stop though, looking down the hall where his partly opened door was. What if I walked in and he was awake and ready to yell at me for getting out of bed?

"You can sleep on the couch if you don't want to go back to grumpy's room" he says behind me standing where you walk into the living room. I give him a questioning look. I thought he was sleeping on the couch.

"The couch is big enough for a whole football team. Neither of us will touch or fall off. Promise" he says putting his hand on his chest. I smile a little at this movement and look back at Brayden's door.

I walk with Bentley into the living room. It was pretty big just like Brayden's room and the kitchen. The living room had a big sectional couch and big fluffy looking camo arm chair. In the middle of the couch and chair was a glass coffee table. On the wall was a huge flat screen tv and under it was a tv stand with the dish box and DVD player and a movie rack.

Bentley patted the couch and I walked over to it. I surprised myself and laid in front of him. He didn't seem to mind anyway. We weren't touch and we still had some room so I wouldn't fall off onto the floor. He put the blanket over me, we were using the same blanket.

Even with the blanket I started to shiver, again. I hope Bentley doesn't get mad like Brandon did.

He didn't. He pulled me into his chest. I welcomed his warmth and turned so my face was snuggled into him.

We feel asleep soon after that. It was almost like sleeping with Tristan.
