Beautifully Broken (in editing)

Chapter 13

I blinked in the bhright yellow light and rolled over on the soft bed. It was to bright with the light filtering in from a window on the sideof the blue painted room. The fluffy white sheets were twisted around me. I realised where i was and felt my cheeks heat up. I was in haydens room. 

My breath caught in my throat and i smiled. Hayden's arm was draped across my tummy lazily. Tingles ran through my skin where he touched it. He twitched in his sleep and i stifled my giggles. He looked adorable and child-like with his auburn hair sticking up in tufts around his head.  

I hesitated before running my ffingers through his soft hair. I paused when he let out a contented sigh and snuggled deeper into hand. Butterflies erupted in my stomach. He let out another peaceful breath, a slight smile playing on his lips. 

"Your stomach is so loud." He mumbled into my shirt, causing my face to set on fire. I smacked him on the head with my good arm and tried to hide my blush. I did NOT think he was awake. And it couldn't have been that loud........He chuckled, sitting up to look at me. His hair stuck up wildly on his head and his eyes glitered. Man, did he have the most amazing eyes.... Snap out of it Lilah!  

He grinned and my stomach did another flip flop. My face felt hot and i just knew i was beet red. My heart was pounding at the thought of being with this boy.....in his oversized t-shirt....and his bed. Ahhh! Where is yyour mind Lilah? 

He planteed a soft kiss on my cheek and pulled me up off of the bed. "Lets het some grub!" He suggested, streching out his arms. I nodded silently and shuffled behind him. His sweatpants hung on my frame and the legs dragged on the floor.  

"Be right back!" I called as he prowled through the fridge. He grunted and i swished to th bathroom. I winced at my reeflection. I had some serious bedhead. I threw it up into a quick, messy bun,ate some toothpaste (no toothbrush) and rolled the pants up so i could walk. I stepped back to admire my handiwork and headed bck to Hayden with a strange giddy feeling.

He smiled when he saw me and his arm snaked around my waist. Tingling shot across my skin where he touched. The smell of bacon drifting from the stove caught my attention and made my mouth water. 

"It's almost done." He chuckled, and i blushed. was my stomache really that loud?

"Nice.... where's your sisters?" I asked, trying to quickly change the subject.

"Their at school. You know.... that magical place of learning that we should be at right about now." His voice was laced with sarcasm and i snorted.

" Yeah, if we keep skipping we're going to get in trouble you know. " I mentioned with a sigh. The thought of school sounded pretty terrible. 

"We can still make second period if we get ready now. " He shot back in a slighlty sing-song tone. I wrinkled my nose. 

"Do we have to? I don't even have clothes.." I groaned and he laughed again. I glanced down at my bandaged arm, the other reason i didn't want to go.

"You can probably fit into Rena's. And, think of what would happen if Julie found out." I winced. Damn. He had a point there. 

I nodded reluctantly, shuffling off to Rena's room. It was surprisingly blank of personal things, just a few bookshelves here and there. No posters, pictures, or even a snowglobe or something. I quickly pulled out the first pair of pants i could find and rushed out of there. It was creepy how emotionless everything about her was.

The pants ended up being black skinny jeans. I shrugged and pulled them on. They seemed to fit fine. I hadn't grabbed a shirt so i decided i would just wear one of Hayden's. I found a smaller, white t-shirt with NIRVANA in scrawled print across the front and a picture of Kurt Cobaine to go along.
