I laid in bed replaying everything from today. I hope i gave him a good birthday. I looked across to his room to see his light out. He must of been really tired. Its only 9. I however was buried under 3 layers because of how cold it was. They are predicting snow tommorow.
I got up rolling my eyes at the familiar pain in my arm. It happens almost 3 days a week. I roll my sleeve up and see its gotten farther down my arm. At this point it had gone from my shoulder to right above my forearm. I tried to shake the pain and turned over. My eyes fluttered closed and before i knew it i fell asleep.

I got back to my house and headed up the stairs. I dont know where grandma was, i looked all over the house. I shrugged and went to take a shower.
I didnt know id been in the shower that long until the water turned cold. I was too busy thinking about her. She filled my mind at all times. I cant remember the last time i wasnt thinking about her.
I stepped out and put my clothes on. I walked to the window and looked through the blinds. I didnt see her but I felt her in there. She was sitting at her desk reading. I smiled before turning to lay on my bed. It was only 8 something but i was so sleepy. I mentally told her goodnight and fell asleep instantly
3 am
I jolted awake covered in sweat. I woke up from a nightmare. I tried forever to fall back asleep but i just couldnt. I wanted to just go over there and get into bed with her.
I decided to go but im not gonna wake her up. I walked a few feet outside and was at her door. I unlocked it and went in turning to lock it back. I walked quietly upstairs to her open door.
She was asleep facing the door . I could see her body rising and falling while she slowly breathed. She looked so peacful. She woke up with a startled look on her face.
"Jesus Michael." She said sitting up. I stood there hoping she wasnt mad at me
"You're only wearing boxers, you could have froze to death outside. " she said getting up and gently pulling me into her bed.
"Im sorry i woke up and couldn't go back to sleep. I just wanted to come over here." I said shyly
"Its okay Mikey you can anytime. But next time put some clothes on so you dont freeze" she said giggling sleepily
I laid facing her with my left arm under the pillow. We stared at each other for a minute before she reached up and touched my hair.
"What. Is it messy?" I said worried i might look stupid
"No" she breathed out "it looks cute" she said looking at me
In that moment I brought my hand to the side of her face, like she had done to me. Then I leaned down while my eyes fluttered shut and i soflty planted a kiss on her lips. The same energy surged through my lips to hers. I pulled back to see her smiling.
"What was that for." She said looking up at me.
"You looked beautiful" i said hiding my face.
"Aww mikey you dont have to be embarrassed." She said as i peeked out of the covers smiling.
"Are you tired?" I questioned.
"A little"
"Go to sleep. I dont wanna keep you up." I said.
She nodded and was asleep in seconds. I scooted a bit closer. I was awake for a while just looking at her. I reached out and tucked some hair back that was falling in her face.
Then it was all at once. I was struck with thoughts a 1000 miles a minute and that same pain ive felt before. My left arm was burning again. The marks on me kept growing. I dont know what this is but its weird. I tried to ignore the pain.
I laid on my left side next to her. instinctively in her sleep she laid up against me with her head pressed to my chest. I looked down smiling. Then I soon felt a weight on my eyes and i too fell asleep.

I woke not remembering Michael was there and almost hit him in the face. He was on his back. I had my left leg over his waist and my head on his chest. I blushed looking down to see he only had boxers on.
I was hungry but i didnt wanna get up yet. I was way too comfortable laying with him. I caught myself staring again. He looks so peaceful. I was just laying there looking up at him and he opened his eyes
"Oh. Good morning" he said shyly blushing like he always did
"Are you okay? " I said brushing a curl out of his face
"I had a bad nightmare" he said looking down at me
"What was it about" i said curious
"I dont remember. I just woke up and wanted to come over here with you."
"You can come over anytime you need me okay." I said and he nodded smiling.
I laid my head back down on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and laid his ontop of mine. I could tell he didnt want to get up either. I just laid there looking out the window and saw little flakes of snow.
"Mikey its snowing!" I said
"I've never seen it before" he said
"Im taking you outside then." I said and realized he had no clothes on. I got up and stood by the window. I grabbed my heavier jacket on my desk chair and put it on.
"Ok you stay here and I'll go get you some clothes. " i said. "Wheres your winter clothes at" i said
"Um they're in the two top drawers of my dresser." He said
"I'll be right back." I said walking out my door and down the stairs
I stepped outside onto the white covered ground and darted across the yard. I opened the door with the spare key and walked in. It was weirdly silent.
I walked quietly up the stairs and got to his room. I walked over to his dresser and grabbed a long sleeved black shirt and some grey sweatpants. I also grabbed some shoes and a jacket for him.
Now to get out of the house without making noise. I went back down the stairs extra slow. Then I opened the front door and stepped outside again. I walked back across the lawn and back into my house.
