Chapter Thirty Two.

Amy's Point of View:

     Waking up in the middle of the night for no known reason is creepy. It's even creepier when you forget you live in a house with three other people and they could be up making noise or that  you lock your door at night because you're convinced a murderer is going to get you. Once I understand what's happening and can already hear the distant rumbles of thunder, I swing my leg over the side of the bed and slowly pad over to my door unlocking it and continuing to pad down the hallway. I've always woken up right before a big storm was coming. They don't scare me but once they arrive thats all I can think about and it becomes difficult to focus on much else. I lightly knock my knuckles against Marks door before twisting the knob. He's propped up on his elbow trying to focus on me as I close the door behind me and begin to walk across his floor. His eyes focus and I stand beside his bed "What's wrong beautiful?" He sits up against his headboard and pats the spot beside him. The room lighting up and the rumbles of thunder answer for me and I climb into his bed. The sheets are cold but the blanket is warm. I face his chest and he wraps his arm around me pulling me closer to him, His fingers dancing up and down my back. "It's ok. Just a little storm" His pecks my forehead just as another batch of thunder and lightning come our way. I snuggle closer to his chest and close my eyes trying to ignore the outside. 

     As I open my eyes the world around me is still fuzzy. I can hear the sound of the rain against Marks window. I look up at him and see that he's still asleep. I snuggle myself back into his chest and close my eyes again, listening to the peaceful mixture of Mark's quiet breath and the rain against the window. I don't fully fall asleep before I  begin to hear the others beginning to wake up and make their way downstairs. I open my eyes again and look up at Mark pulling myself away from his chest a bit. His breathing gets heavier but he doesn't fully wake up. I put my finger against his chest and draw swirls around it. His eyes slowly open and he looks down at me smiling. "Good morning beautiful" He pecks my forehead as I rise up. "Good morning handsome" I kiss his lips and swing my legs over the side of his bed and stand beside his bed, Pressing my hands down into the mattress. "I'm hungry" I whine making him laugh. "When are you not?" He continues laughing and I lightly smack his chest before lowering my lips to his in a slow kiss. "I'll meet you downstairs" I say as I pull away dragging his lip with mine and turning on my heel making my way out of his room. 

     "I see that the take out wasn't cleaned up before we all hit the hay last hight" I raise my eyebrow playfully as I walk into the kitchen. "We all kinda made our way to bed at the same time" Ethan shrugs his shoulders as he stacks to go boxes "We must have been really tired" He tosses the boxes in the bin and I grab a paper towel and begin to wet it. After wiping down the table I make myself a bowl of fruit and a glass of water before sitting at the breakfast nook. "Some storm last night huh?" I cover my mouth as I talk, careful not to spit food. "I slept all the way through it" Kathryn shrugs "Just woke up to a little rain" She takes a scoop of her cereal. "I'm guessing you didn't?" Ethan raises an eyebrow and looks across the table at me. I shake my head and chew my fruit "It scared me enough that I actually had to unlock my door" I laugh as Ethan playfully gasps. "Ya know Amy, You've got me locking my door now" Kathryn looks over her glasses at me and laughs. "Well, If anyone ever breaks in we know the two people who will be safe" I laugh and give Kathryn a high five before scooping the last of my fruit up and taking it over to the sink, Rinsing it out. "Why isn't Mark up yet?" Ethan asks as I sit back in my seat. "I don't know, I tried waking him up but he must have fallen back asleep" I shrug my shoulders before we hear a thud coming from the steps "Shit Fuck Shit!" I look to the others and Kathryn puts a hand over her mouth to pretend to not be laughing. "I think we know where Mark is" She laughs as we all get up to see Mark laying with his back against the steps. "You good?" I ask and offer a hand. "Just peachy" He takes my hand and places one hand on his back as he walks to the kitchen. "Loose you're balance there old man?" Ethan says as we sit back at the table, Kathryn and I laugh. "Shut up Ethan" Mark laughs before getting up and slowly walking to get himself breakfast. 

     "What do you want to do today Ames?" Mark says as he closes the door and I plop to his bed. "Hm" I laugh as Mark plops beside me "How about absolutely nothing?" He smiles and pecks my lips. "We cant do nothing" I say in a duh tone "How about you edit and I nap?" I pop up and smile and so does Mark. "As soon as I'm done we get to cuddle?" He raises his eyebrow and I polo against his pillow and cover myself with his heavy blanket. "Promise" He kisses my lips, leaning over the side of the bed before turning the lights off and closing the door behind him.
