You No Longer Walk Alone~Blake Bliss~

~8~

Vale's POV

Hours passes before I finally found enough courage to go home and face my parents, not for too long only 5 minutes maybe less. But I knew those 5 minutes would be hell. I still had on Blake's T-shirt and as we walked across his lawn and onto mine he held my shaking body and tried to sooth me. "Everything's going to be okay." he said softly. We finally reached the front door to my home that's not really a home and I took a deep breath before allowing Blake to open the door. We came face to face with both my parents and they didn't take a liking to Blake's arm around me.

"Did you sleep with my daughter?!" she blurted out angerly. "Yes and No!" he replied quickly with a nervous look on his face. "What do you mean by that?" my father was fuming.

"Well I slept with her, but not in the way you think. we didn't do any like sexual she just came to me in a time of need and we literally slept in the same bed that's all!" the words shot out of his mouth as fast as bullets out of a gun.

Both my parents turned to face me. "Is this true? If so why are you wearing his shirt?" My mother asked more calm than expected. "It is true we did sleep in the same bed and I'm only wearing his shirt because I was wearing a sweatshirt and i got hot so I changed into his T-shirt." She nodded before beginning to scream death threats.

"NEXT TIME YOU SNEAK OUT OF THIS HOUSE I'M GOING TO BURY YOU! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!?!" Fear rushed into my eyes and my skin paled. I just darted past both of them with Blake at my heels. We finally reached my bedroom and he quietly shut the door behind us and locked it.

I sat on my bed and began to hyperventilate. It felt like I was breathing out of a straw. Blake came over and sat next to me. I layed my head on his shoulder and we sat in that position for a few moments of awkwardness.

"You can't stay here." he explained. "Then where am I supposed to stay?" He gave me an 'Are you serious?' stare and i laughed even in my state of fright. "You are obviously staying with me for the time being. Probably until you get tired of me or just want to start living on your own." he shrugged at the end and I pushed his shoulder. "You can't be serious. I dont want to burden your music career or just your life in general." he glimpsed at me with sympathy. "You won't darling, I promise. I need a roommate anyways." I brightened up a little and decided we should probably start packing before my parents knock down my door.

~Le time skip~

While my parents were fighitng in their bedroom Blake and I snuck out with a few suitcases and I made sure to pack my little blue box without him noticing. The thought of living with him just made my heart flutter. I know I said this about Maxwell but there is something about Blake and I was able to put my finger on what it was but I was just drawn to him. I think my feelings toward Maxwell were just a fling because he saved me, but I'm going to be living with Blake and who knows what could happen.

After lugging the packs of clothes, shoes, makeup, pillows, and everything else i needed i dropped everything in the middle of his bedroom floor and then smiled to myself remembering the second kiss from blake.

I heard him sneak into the room, "hey we can go pick up a dresser for your stuff tomorrow okay?" I nodded not really knowing what he said because I was to focused on his mouth.

I started to step closer to him and with another sudden boost of confidence my lips crashed into his. I could tell he was shocked at first because his body tensed but after a second he relaxed and began to kiss back. I smiled into the kiss and felt him to the same.

We pulled apart and I couldn't help but giggle at the redness that covered his cheeks.

We both walked into the living acting as if that kiss had never happened and I plopped myself on the couch. "Would you like anything, water, a blanket?"

"You." I hate this stupid confidence thing. "Wait what?" He questioned with a smirk plastered on his face.

"Nothing. I'm fine thank you." I gave him a weak smile as he chuckled and shook his head grabbing a Blanket from the hall closet.

"I know your cold. Your arms are cover in goosebumps. I nodded keeping my eyes on the floor. He places the knit covered over my body and say down next to me grabbing the TV remote.

He flicked through every channel until I stopped him. Since it was shark week they had a jaws movie marathon and they have always been my favorite.

No matter how stupid or unrealistic the movies actually were they interested me. It was something I didn't understand when I was 5 and still don't to this very day.

"I can't believe you actually watch this crap." He stated with a hint of disgust. I just put my finger in his face to quiet him down.

After about a half an hour of watching the first Jaws I began to get a little more comfortable in Blake's home and around him. When I glanced over at him it wasn't an awkward 'I'm obviously looking at your face' glance it was more on the lines of 'you know I really like looking at your face' glance.

I stretched out and rested my head on his lap and looked into his brown eyes. He smiled down at me while his long hair cascaded down. I poked at his nose and he leaned down and kiss mine. It was a cute boyfriend/girlfriend moment even though we weren't together, but I sure did want to.

I don't really like making the first move when it comes to asking people out mostly because I've never been asked out before expect that stupid little conversation I had with Maxwell. So this came out really awkward

"So, uh, uhm, blake, uh, do you, uhm i don't know, maybe, a little, kind of, sort of want to, you know, go on a date?"

I expected a no but he leaned down again and kiss me. It was short and sweet. "I would absolutely love to darling!"

I turned back towards the television with a huge smile spread across my face. My day just went from bad to worse, to wonderful in a matter if hours.
