Riley's POV

I woke up with a pounding headache and barely even opened my eyes. But I glanced around to notice I wasn't in my own room, not even my own trailer and I was only in a t-shirt and my underwear. Shit. What did I do last night? I looked at the closet and saw and abundance of flannels and white. Then I saw the serpent jacket that I could never forget, I'm at Sweet Peas.

"Oh your awake." He said coming into the room with a glass of water.

"What the fuck happened?" I said strained. My throat was dry and my head throbbing. I was most definitely hung over.

"Your twin showed up remember?" I nodded I remembered everything up until after they left. "Well you got drunk and went on a rant about they were gonna kidnap you in your sleep and that you need to sleep somewhere else. We tried to get you to stay but you were screaming. So FP told me to bring you here. Then you started to strip and I gave you a shirt. You threw your bra and was yelling about male privilege, now that was a show." He laughed and I turned deep red and buried my face a little bit. He sat on the edge of the bed. I noticed the other side of the bed was still made.

"Where did you sleep?" I asked.

"Couch, I didn't want you to just wake up in bed with me in case you didn't want to." He said shyly.

"It's okay, you stayed when I was in shock. You shouldn't of let me take your bed." He shrugged and then proceeded to go get two pills and hand them to me.

"Aspirin?" I questioned hopefully.

"No your pills. FP told me to give them to you as soon as you woke up. I don't wanna mix meds just in case so no aspirin." He looked sympathetic as I stared at the pills. They were supposed to change me and make me normal. I gulped them down. The quicker they see results the quicker this will be over. I flopped back in bed and cuddled into his sheets. "Tired?" He asked with a laugh. I nodded.

"Come cuddle me I'm cold." I Said not thinking I was just in my underwear. He didn't seem to notice or care and he slid in next to me. He did something I never experienced since that night we first kissed, He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me as close to him as possible. He felt me tense and let go. "No, it's okay, it's just, never mind." I stammered he put his arm back and leaned in close to my ear.

"Just what?" He whispered in my ear. I could feel his breath on my neck and I started to turn red being this close to him. He smirked at the thought of having me so flustered. "Get some sleep Jones." He pulled me close and I dozed off in his arms.

I woke up still in Sweet Peas arms safe and warm. He felt me move and opened his eyes, he had fallen asleep too. "I could get used to waking up to this." He smiled and kissed my forehead. I turned around and I stared blankly at him. My brain felt hard and empty. I couldn't conjure up an expression. "Are you Okay?" He asked I nodded still blank. It felt like the world stopped turning and every movement was harder to do. Like I had so much control over my whole body.

"M-m-meds" I stammered. He held me and I was tense.

"Lets take you home okay?" He got up and left the room so I could get dressed. We walked hand in hand to the trailer but it was taking me much longer. Like i had to think a lot more to make my legs move. Almost like I wasn't thinking for myself anymore.

Sweet Peas POV

I dropped her off at her trailer but didn't go in. I kissed her forehead and pushed her through the door. She didn't know what was waiting for her. FP has called back her family, he wanted Riley to apologize and give them a chance. I was given the instructions to give her meds, let her sleep, bring her back. That what I did. Now I'm going to the wyrm.
