He Saved Me

Chapter thirty seven

Today I am moving into the apartment with Cody and then going to Brooks party.

I'm very excited to finally be on my own and not feel like I'm taking advantage of the Whites.

I never really unpacked my boxes so it doesn't take long to pack everything up.

I still have to figure out what to do with my house. I'll take care of that after I turn 18 so that I can get the money for it.

After packing everything I look at Mason to see his eyes still pressed closed.

I shake my head, a smile on my face. Picking up some of the light boxes and bringing them downstairs.

"Leah? Wheres Mason?" Brooks questions as I struggle with a heavier box.

"He's still sleeping. Its early" I laugh, looking at my watch.

Its only 8:30. I wanted to get packing done early.

"Go wake his äss up. You need help" Jim takes the box from Brooks.

"I can manage" I smile, running up the stairs to grab another box.

Once all the boxes are at the door I decide to wait for Mason to wake up to bring them to the car.

"Thank you guys. I have it from here" I smile, walking back up the stairs.

Mason stirs, causing me to hold my breath.

"Leah?" He questions, rubbing his eyes.

"Yeah, I'm up" I smile, sitting next to him.

"Hm" He nods, placing his head back on his pillow.

"Lay down" He whines, wrapping his arms around me and pulling me to lay next to him.

"I have things to do Mas. And you should thank me. Your dad wanted me to wake you up" I smile, playing with his messy hair.

"Hm? And why did he want that?" He smirks.

"To help me carry the boxes downstairs" I mumble, trying to group his hair to the right.

"You carried them downstairs by yourself? You should have woken me" His eyes snap open, causing me to jump.

"No, your dad and Brooks helped me" I fix his hair, directing it to the left again.

"You should have woken me up. I would have helped" He yawns, kissing me on the temple.

I smile, climbing out of bed.

"Where are you going?" He whines and I steal one of his hoodies.

"Changing. I told Cody I would be moving in at 12:30. I still need to make lunch" I smile, going into the bathroom to get ready.

I change really quickly, do some simple makeup with a darker eyeshadow look than usual and I curl my hair, throwing it into a messy ponytail.

When I get out if the bathroom Mason is still in his bed, eyes closed and everything.

"Mas" I grin, laying on top of him.

"Now what are you doing?" He laughs, hugging me closer to him.

"I'll be downstairs" I kiss his cheek, walking downstairs.

"Leah, how'd you sleep?" Tara hugs me.

"I slept good" I smile, sitting at the island.

"So todays the day huh?" She smiles, tears in her eyes.

"It is. And then you guys don't have to worry about me anymore" I laugh, trying to lighten the mood.
