The Infected

Chapter 7

Gene’s P.O.V

“WHAT?” I said the blush quickly creeping up my neck and forming on my face.

Wait, s-share, A BED! Just kill me now, WHYYYYY

“If its a huge problem, I can share with Dante, or if you want to be really extra, you two can share this tiny one person bed, and I can sleep by myself.” She said.

“W-why can’t you sleep on the tiny one person” I said hoping she’d say she’d sleep there.

“Because its my bed, sooo… what’s it gonna be?” she said smirking like she knew what she was doing. Dante walked up to me.

“I don't mind sharing with her, though I move in my sleep so-” he said whispering.
“I'll sleep with you!” I said quickly cutting him off. After I realized what I said I blushed furiously. “Umm, I-i mean i'll share the bed” I said correcting myself. I could hear Dante snickering behind me. And Rose looked like she was trying to hold her laughter. I heard full blown laughing from inside that coin.

    They all know what there doing, assholes…

“Okay loverboy we can share.” Rose said which made me blush. I dont think Ive blushed this much in one day in my life. We got ready for bed…

Rose’s P.O.V

Yea I knew what I was doing. Dante and I planned it while Gene was in the shower. Dante came up with the jealousy trap. He told me that he really needed a girlfriend so he would help me. I have prompted Dante from being son, to single mother’s wingman son. When Gene when into the bedroom me and him laughed quietly. We fistbumpted and I whipered thank you. To be honest I was a little nervous myself. I took off the covers and entered in on the side on the wall. Gene just awkwardly looked at the bed like it was some torture device. I smiled and rolled my eyes.

“Gene, I don't have cooties if that's what your worried about” I said. He gave up and got in bed. I feel asleep. I felt someone tapping my shoulder. I whined eyes still closed.

“Rose” I heard someone whisper.

“This better be good like dean once said I need my four hours” I said unwillingly opening my eyes. He was laying on his side facing me fidgeting with his necklace that had what looked like a alligator tooth on it nervously. “Are you okay?”  I asked worried.

“Uh.. i-its… nothing, nevermind you can go back to sleep.” He said sighing. I looked at him with an annoyed look.
“Bullshit, Tell me what's up. Your the one who woke me up. And I'm just going to awkwardly stare you down until you tell me what it is” I said folding my arms. He sighed.

“I can't sleep, and I was wondering if you… could you know... um, sing again.” He said only glancing at me a few times. I just smiled.

“Gene it doesn't bother me. I'm glad you appreciate my singing voice so much that you want it to help you sleep.” I said sweetly.

(I'm not going to write the song again but you know what Im talking about. Just imagine her singing it and them both slowly falling asleep. Rose now sleeping a little closer to Gene)

“D-dante, R-rose, n-o” I hear Gene muttering in his sleep which wakes me up. I grab his hand a draw circles on the back of his hand with my thumb to calm him down. His breathing was still unsteady. I felt bad so I moved my hands around his neck and cuddled him. His breathing slowed and his arm moved around my waist returning the hug. I fell asleep to the sound of his heart beat.

Fast forward to the morning.

I woke up with Gene and Me cuddling. I smiled at how cute he looked in the morning. He started to move and I didnt know what to do so I just pretended to be asleep. I heard Gene yawn. I felt Gene tense in my embrace.

“Shit” he muttered. I had to try everything in me to not move. We were in that position for thirty minutes when I heard Gene sigh. He let go of me and tried to force my arms off of him. I decided to have fun with this.

“Gene” I said pretending to be dreaming about him. He dropped me and I fell onto him and pretend to wake up. “Morning Freckles” I said smirking with the hint of blush on my cheeks. My chin on his chest and him blushing. He flung me off of him and stood up. When he stood up I wanted to take a good look at what moring Gene looked like. I smiled to myself until I saw them. 4 big fat hickeys on his neck that were not there before we went to bed.

“Shit”
