I opened my eyes, woken up by the horn of a car. The sun haven’t raised yet, but I wasn’t tired at all. Maybe because I went to sleep early.

I turned around to see if Emma was awake, if she was okay. I got worried all night, waking up every two or three hours, thinking about how she could feel after all she learned about me.

She tends to be overprotective with everybody, so she must feel bad for not having be able to do anything to help me. For not even notice that it happened. The last time something like that happened to me, she fell in depression for 3 months, repeating to herself she wasn’t worth anything again and again.

I looked at her while stroking her hairs. She had puffy eyes, which made me guess I was right about her. I’ll have to keep an eye on her from now on. She needs me by her side.

Slowly, I saw Emma’s eyelids move, just to feel her tired look on me. How cute.

Emma : Did you sleep well ??

Y/N : I should be the one asking this, I said with a soft tone. It looks like i slept better than you.

Emma : I know, I’m sorry. It’s jus, you know... All this made me think about that gu-

Y/N : Yeah, I know. But don’t worry, we’re safe now, I answered smiling, still playing with her hairs.

We stayed in this position for a few seconds before Emma pulled me into a hug.

Emma : Please stay alive... She said.

I could feel my shirt being wet, sign that she was crying. I hugged her back and stroke her head softly.

Y/N : I promise, I’ll stay alive as long as I can.

A few minutes after, I felt her breath getting slower and slower, until it became normal again. I continued to hug her, just to be sure she really was okay.

Emma : What time is it ?? She asked, pulling her head out of my neck.

I turned my back to Emma to grab my phone, look at the clock and put it back on the bedside table.

Y/N : It’s 6:30 am.

Emma : I see... It’s probably the moment we have to get up, she said with a laugh that warmed hy heart.

Y/N : You’re right, I’m really hungry, I answered with a smile

Emma : You’re always hungry anyway

Y/N : You can talk, I said, pulling out my tongue a little

Emma : What a child you are, she answered, with a small smile, before walking toward the door

Y/N : Waiiiiit

Emma : What ?? Is there a problem ?? She asked, turning around to face me

Y/N : Yeah, there’s one

Emma : And what is it ??

Y/N : It’s that I don’t mind seeing you in underwear, but I don’t think the others will be able to ignore a nice body like the one you have
