*Callen's POV"

Shit. My head is pounding. I reach up to my forehead and rub my head. Fuck what happened last night. All I remember is leaving the club and coming to Eva's. Eva!!

Reaching for my phone I check the time. 9:00am. Maybe I could leave before she wakes up. Yeah I have to do that.

Why did I come here last night? I could have gone home but why the heck did I feel like I needed to come here?

"Something is wrong with me" I say smacking myself.

Getting up of the couch, I look around and see the Eva is curled up at the other end of the couch and it would seem as if I stole all the blanket. Oops.

I walk over to her and pick her up bridal style. She's shaking. Geez Callen why do you have to steal everything! Now look what you've done. She's freezing and her face is ice cold to the touch.

I pull her close to my body for heat before slowly walking up the stairs. Looking down the corridor, I spot her room with EVA painted on the door. I didn't know she could paint. I don't really know anything about her.

I push open her door. Wow. Her room isn't what I imagined. She has a big four poster bed in the middle of the room. A large white vanity to the side, filled with makeup, magazines, her laptop and a few other bits and pieces.

Her walk in wardrobe was open and all the ballet costumes she had were practically overflowing. Her bed was made perfectly. Walking over to the bed, I pull back the covers trying not to wake her with my free arm and slip her into the covers.

She stirs but I pull the blankets over her and she rolls back to sleep. I put my hand to her forehead, she's warm again. I place a small chaste kiss to her forehead before walking out of the room, closing the door behind me.

She really is beautiful when she sleeps. Well she's beautiful all the time. Callen what are you saying?! I need to stop this. Like now.

I walk back into the lounge room and fold the blanket she lent me last night and place it back on the couch.

There's a pen and paper on the table so I grab that and write Eva a note.

Eva,

Thanks so much for letting me stay here last night. I shouldn't have put that pressure on you though. Don't worry it won't happen again. Have a good day! :)

Love Callen.

I finish the note and put it on the kitchen bench in plain sight so she can see it when she wakes up. I hope she won't be mad at me for leaving.

I just can't be here when she wakes up.

I grab my phone from the lounge room and take a quick look around her house before I leave.

"Goodbye Eva" I talk to no one.

I grab the door handle and open it, before closing it and making the journey home.
