NALIA'S POV
5am I didn't get to sleep at all. I was over thinking every single thing.
My breathing was speeding up and I was starting to sweat like crazy.My whole body felt shaky. I haven't had an anxiety attack for weeks,why one now?
I tried to slip out from under Garrett's head without waking him and failed. His eyes fluttered open and looked worried.
I ran to the front door and went outside. I sat down on a step and tried to catch my breath.
Slowly my breath was slowing down. The door had opened to reveal a tired and worried Garrett. He gave me a bottle of water and sat down next to me.
I drank the whole bottle. I turned to Garrett.
"Thank you Garrett...im sorry for waking you up."
"Don't apologize, I'm your boyfriend now that's what I'm here for."
"I haven't had one in so long, that was so unexpected"
I leaned my head on him. He picked me up and set me on his lap like a child. I just admired him.
I got up and tugged on his arm and took him to the driveway. The sun had just started to rise. I smiled at it..."people overlook stuff like this. Sunrises are beautiful."
I looked to my side to see Garrett just looking at me.
GARRETT'S POV
Seeing her so happy about a simple sunrise made me smile. Even after having a panic attack she smiled so genuinely.
I couldn't stop staring at her.She looked at me and grinned and I returned it.
She reached over and grabbed my hand and played with my fingers. We sat down on the chairs. Nalia fell asleep on my lap.
She wrapped her arms around my neck and I carried her inside. She looked cold so I grabbed a blanket and layed it on her. I layed next to her and she rested her head on my chest.
"Thank you" She fell back asleep,I kissed her forehead and fell asleep as well. I knew she was tired and she was still shaky.
◇◇◇
Nalia jumped on me and hugged me tightly. "Babe....you're gonna kill me." She put her hand over heart and acted hurt. "I'm not THAT fat" "Hahaha not that you were squeezing the life out of me."
"Oh" she laughed
She looked at Andrew and Ell still asleep and raised her eyebrows up and down.
"No Nal" I mouthed to her
She put a thumbs up and got off me quickly. She grabbed their phones and put them on the table.
She went into the kitchen and came out with a cup of water. She threw it on them and ran back to me and hid behind me.
