Breathe (Anthony Trujillo)

*05

I was currently laying wide awake in Tessa's room, at 3 in the morning, staring up at the ceiling. Tessa passed out like 5 hours ago and I just cannot sleep.

I'm looking up at all the little specks moving around, in my vision of the pitch black room. I sigh, I grab my phone and log onto Instagram. I click on Anthony's page and start a DM with him.

Me-Hey, are you up still?

Imanthonytruj-Yeah, what's up?

Me-Can't sleep

Imanthonytruj-Ahh, come here

Me- What?

Imanthonytruj-Come to my room, the door in cracked, just push it open

I furrow my eyebrows, but still go. I fling the blanket off of my legs, and push myself up off the air mattress, I quietly tip-toe over to the door, using the light on my phone. I'm currently standing in the hall next to Anthony's room, I take a deep breath and push the door a little bit.

"Up here."

I hear Anthony whisper from the top bunk, of the bunk bed straight ahead. I shine my phone light on their messy floor, stepping around everything, I finally make it to the side of the bunk bed. I walk to the end and climb up the bars. I crawl up next to Anthony on the inside. He pulls the blanket over my side and pulls me into his chest. My head is rested under his chin, My arms were bent in against his chest, his arm was draped over my side and the other was over the top of my head.

"Hi."

I whisper, I feel the vibration from his chuckle against my head.

"Hi."

He mumbled back, I laugh and snuggle closer to his body. I sniff in, catching his scent.

"You smell really good."

I whisper again.

"You smell good too."

He replies. I blush and close my eyes, I pull my knees up into my chest and start dozing off.

"Night, Anthony."

"Night."

I fall into a deep slumber, with a smile on my face.

I wake up still held against Anthony's chest, my arms were now hanging over his side and our legs were intertwined. I slowly lift his arm off of my side and pull my legs from under his, all without waking him up. Now to crawl off the end of his bed, I slide to the end on my stomach until my feet were hanging over the edge.

"That's something I've never woken up to before."

I look up at Anthony surprised, damn he's got a hot morning voice. I start laughing, hard.

"Sorry-for waking you-up."

I say in between breaths, he starts laughing at me, I start losing my grip and slide off the bed. I open my eyes in shock and see Anthony hovering over the end of the bunk bed, I start laughing at myself again.

"Are you okay?"

I smiled at him, I nod. I roll over on my stomach and push myself up onto my knees.

"I'm gonna go shower now."

I say, catching my breath, he nods as I walk out the door. I pop my head back in the door.

"Thanks by the way. For letting me sleep in here."

"No problem."

He smiles at me, I blush and go take a nice warm shower. After I'm done its about 9:30 and Tessa is sitting up in bed.
