They Call Me Rebel

Lemme sleep

"Rebel"
I rolled over and groaned.
"Rebelll" I felt a hand shaking my arm trying to roll back over but the hand wouldn't let me move from where I was laying.
"REBEL"
"WHATS THE F**K IS WRONG WITH YOU LET ME SLEEP YOU EMERALD EYED BASTARD" I wiggled out of his grasp.
"Emerald eyed bastard...that's a new one"
"Shut up Jay leave me alone"
"See Princess but I can't. It's 3 in the afternoon and I have a little something something planned for tonight."
"Screw you I'd rather sleep I haven't gotten a good nights sleep since I lost her and I didn't have any nightmares. Leave me alone"
"Ya know why you didn't have nightmares Rebel?"
"Stop being cocky and cuddle me" "oh fine fine whatever the princess wishes. Are you sure you don't want to-"
"Shut. Up. Jay."
Wrapping his arm around me I could feel the rumble of his laughter and his breath on the back of my neck.
I've known Jacin for almost four months now and he's become my rock. And it scares the crap out of me. I was over at Jacins place and watching horror movies I guess I fell asleep. Slowly while listening to his heartbeat I fell back into a peaceful sleep in his arms.

Jay POV
I woke up Rebel up again by shaking her arm
"I thought I told you-"
"Shhh I'll let you sleep...after you come with me"
"I don't wanna walk Jay"
She still had sleep in her voice and the way her nickname for me rolled of her tongue made my stomach do flip flops.
"But I want you to come with me for a bit Rebel"
"Carry me?"
Thanking anything that would listen that she still had her eyes closed and couldn't see the blood rushing my cheeks. I scooped her up into my arms and she wrapped her arm around my neck and nuzzled her head where my shoulder met my neck. Smiling at the sleepy girl I've grown so close to I walked towards the door.
"Mmmm Jay it's cold outside"
"Just trust me Babe"
It was a summer night and it was warm with a slight breeze. It had that smell in the air that's just so calming and I could tell Rebel felt the same way with the sigh and smirk that appeared on her face. The sky was clear and the stars were clear and I had gone back and forth when Rebel fell asleep to make a little spot under the stars.
"Jay wha-"
"Shush. It's a nice night and I wanted to look at the stars"
"Ermm okay I'm going back to sleep though"
"That's okay I figured you would"
After a bit of silence I thought she went to sleep. She was curled up in my side again and I could feel each breathe rising in her side and slowly going down.
"Hey Jay?"
"Yea?"
"Thank you"
"For what"
"Bringing me out here...it's nice"
"Yea no problem"
"And did everything else"
"Hm?" I was genuinely confused on what she meant. She seemed to have a certain meaning behind it from how her voice sounds heavy with sincerity.
"For standing up for me that day at Coffé. And calling me the next day and getting me out of bed. For being my friend. For being here"
"Oh...Rebel you know that I care for you. You don't need to thank me for it"
"When you call me babe and princess...do you mean it?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean...is it just something you call everyone or is it something you do to just me?"
"Oh...just you Rebel. The feelings I've grown for you aren't something that comes with everyone with an a*shole stepdad"I chuckled a bit and she giggle
"Feelings?"
"Ye-"
She shut me up with a haste kiss but she didn't pull away too far. I went to put a hand behind her head to pull her back but she put her forehead against mine.
"How about we just go ahead and make things official instead of flirting back and forth."
"Sounds good Princess"
"Good" her voice was barely above a whisper but I heard her clearly. I slowly closed the space between us and it was passionate and sweet and full of promise. The girl called Rebel was mine.
