Brads POV
I'm laying on my back and she has somehow wiggled herself practically on top of me. Her legs are laying across my legs, her right arm is laying across my stomach and her head is on my chest. Her blonde hair is being used as a pillow underneath her head.
It's now been a week. Seven days I've spent with my beautiful girl. In the mornings, we normally wake up wrapped around each other. I've learned she doesn't like to stop touching me while she sleeps. It's probably some sort of comfort thing for her. Also, it's been 8 days since her last nightmare. I feel like it's because she has someone to sleep next to. Like she feels protected, her mind is at ease.
The silence is broken by Kylie's phone ringing. It's probably her mum again. I quickly grab her phone to silence it before it wakes her up. It's indeed her mum. Kylie's mother and I have had a few conversations now. I wasn't super comfortable talking to her but I at least knew her name now.
"Good morning, Kristina. It's Brad. Kylie hasn't woken up yet." I say into the phone.
"Good morning, Bradley. How are you both doing? How did she sleep last night?" I love that her mum cares so much, I also love that she included me in that sentence.
"We're doing well. School has been pretty normal. She's been staying at my house, as you know. I'm trying to teach her to cook but I think that's a lost cause." We both chuckle into the phone. "Oh and we're going on day 8 without a nightmare. I'm really happy for her."
"Oh, Brad!" I can hear her sniffle. "You don't know what it means to me that she's sleeping through the night." She pauses to pull herself together. "Any who, I just wanted to call to check in and remind you guys that I'll be home and we're having dinner tonight."
I hadn't forgotten. In fact, I've thought about this night every second for the past few days. "We haven't forgotten. I'm very excited to officially meet you!"
"I'm excited as well, sweetie. Okay, well I've got to get off here but tell Kylie I love her and I can't wait to see her."
"Will do. Have a lovely day." And with that we were off the phone. I'm glad her mum and I get on. I don't normally make it to meeting the parents. Normally it's just a couple dates with a girl and then I go on without them, but with Kylie it's so different. I want her mother to love me. I want to meet the rest of her family. I want to spend time with them and her and grow with her.
My thoughts are broken by the sound of my beautiful girls voice. "She likes you, you know?" Her voice startles me and when I turn around she's leaning against the doorway with her arms crossed. Her head is resting on the doorway and her hair is now in a large bun on the top of her head. She's wearing my t-shirt and a pair of my long socks, because her feet get cold at night.
"How do you figure?" I ask her. I don't think her mom dislikes me, but I don't think she likes the idea that I'm who her daughter chose to be with.
"She told me," she pushed herself off the wall and started walking over to me. "She said that you were a good man for taking care of me and accepting me like you did. Most people wouldn't." I wrap my arms around her waist when she makes her way over to me and she puts one hand on my chest and the other around the back of my neck. "She's right you know?" She says before placing a kiss on my lips.
"I think that anyone that wouldn't accept you is fucking crazy, but I'm glad your mum recognizes the love I have for you." I look her in her in her eyes. "I will forever protect you, my beautiful girl. From now on I will take care of you"
Kylie's POV
His words pierce through my heart in the best way possible. This man has no idea what he's doing to me.
