I sit on the couch and look at Colby, feeling both confused and scared. I have no idea what they want to talk to me about. They all look at Colby, then at me and then back at Colby. This just makes me more uncomfortable and nervous. "Well, we kinda talked while you where asleep yesterday.. We tried to figure out some.. Uhh, things" Colby starts, but loses his words as he says them. "I don't really want to live alone with you Y/N" Sheila says all of a sudden, but in a soft and sad voice. "It's just... I was asleep in the room next to yours and was woken up by EMT's yelling to each other.. And at.. You" Sheila starts to tear up and can't continues her sentence, so Colby continues for her. "Y/N we just want to keep you safe after what happened and the things with your ex. Your doctor said it would be a great idea too".
"Please guys, just tell me whats going on" I say still confused. I'm feeling awful for realizing how much pain I actually put them through. I know what they saw, but I kinda pushed it away all the time.


"Well, you and Sheila are going to stay here for a while" Corey explains after a moment of silence. I don't even know how to react. What should I say? And how should I feel about this? There is another moment of silence. "Well, what do you say?" Devyn eventually asks. "You guys don't even have a spare room" is all I can say. I am dragged deep into my thoughts again, but I still work on the outside. My head is spinning and I can't really focus on anything right now. "You are going to share Colby's room with Sheila, while he stays with me" Jake says and smiles a bit. "Okay" is all I can answer. The thoughts are spinning around and it starts to make me dizzy and I have to rest my head in my hands, resting my arms on my legs.

"What time is it" I ask, while I feel myself getting lightheaded. "Like 3 pm, why?" I hear Jake's voice. "Y/N, are you okay", another voice says. But I am already blacking out. I am only out for a few seconds, then I say "water" and black out again. By the next time I wake up I feel someone sitting besides me and a bottle of water in front of me. I take a few sips and wait for a few moments, before I start feeling better. "Are you okay, Y/N" I can hear Sheila say in the distance and I nod. Then I try to open my mouth and talk but it's only a soft mumble, "Just some side effects of the meds" I explain and apparently they all heard me. "Jake could you get her some sugar?" I hear Colby say, realizing his the one sitting besides me. I sit there with my head in my hands for a while, until I feel more stable and able to look up. Jake hands me some chocolate and I take little piece. We all sit in silence for a while. "Well, sooo" I start, with a low voice, still not feeling all that good, "what are you guys doing the rest of the day?" I say, looking at the others who give me confused looks. A little hesitating Devyn and Corey start talking about them going on a date and Aaron is going to stream later. The others don't have any plans yet, but yesterday they talked about making a movie night. "That sounds like fun" I say and smile and get some smiles back.

The rest of the afternoon we spend hanging around the house, waiting for Kat to get off of work and over here. Colby and Jake film a video with Sheila and I just lay down and chill most of the day. Even though it is weird to actually live here, I try and make the best out of it and I actually enjoy being here. There is always someone around, so I have no chance to be left alone with my thoughts.

Around 7 pm Kat arrives at the house and hasher arms filled with snacks and sodas. I already look forward to this! Even though it is something so minor as a movie marathon, it still means a lot for me. Especially because I can do it with such amazing people as these. We gather around in the living room and sit down on the couch, where Colby hurries to take place on one of the sides and places me besides him. He doesn't even try to hide that he wants to cuddle. I gladly sit down besides him, where he drags me into a cuddling position right away.

Sam starts playing a horror movie - of course. Colby and I lay together, Sam and Kat cuddle and Jake and Sheila are almost melting into one person. This is so cozy and nice to be a part off. This feeling, of not having to worry is amazing and I enjoy every second of it. As I am drifting of into the good thoughts, there is a jump scare in the movie and the main character screams which makes me scream and twitch. Colby tenses his grip around me, to make me feel safe, and I cuddle into him. Some time during the movie I drift off to sleep, feeling safe and sound in colby's arms.

I wake up a few hours later. I look around in shock, as i notice that I'm not on the couch downstairs anymore. I look around some more, and as my eyes start to be able to focus, I notice that I'm upstairs in Colby's room, but Sheila isn't in here. I stand up and walk towards the door looking outside. I t seems like everyone is sleeping. I walk downstairs, now where I am up I can at least get some water.

I walk downstairs, where I find Colby sitting in the kitchen. "Why are you still up?" I ask him, as I get down the stairs. He startles a little as I opened my mouth, turning around and looking at me. Apparently he didn't hear me walk down the stairs. "Why are you up?" he asks me instead, looking tired. "I woke up and felt thirsty" I say and walk to the fridge where I grab a bottle of water. "And why are you up?" I say again, a little more demanding for an answer this time. "After you fell asleep I brought you upstairs, when I got back down Sheila and Jake had went to bed - together. And I can't really sleep downstairs alone", he says and yawns. "You know you could just have gotten into bed with me right? I didn't mind in hospital and I don't mind now" I say, locking my eyes at his.

We just stand and look at each other for a minute or so. Then he walks over to me, still looking into my eyes. With one swift move he lifts me up like a princess - or that's at least how I feel. Without saying anything he walks up the stairs, into his room, closes the door and lays me down on the bed. Still not saying anything, he grabs the blanket, lays down besides me, puts the blanket over us and cuddles into me. Within a few seconds his drifting off to sleep, and so am I.


A/N:
OMG!!! I can't say it enough, but Colby is just adorable. Also, I can't believe that he is this cute and perfect! Something must me off.

Soooo, what is going to happen tomorrow? Is Brennen coming over? And what about changing the bandage? 

Read on and find out!
