Y/N's POV

Emma and I had heard shouting downstairs, and I knew it was Enoch.  I heard him cuss her out right before opening the door.  She hit him.  He was about to hit him back when I told him to stop.  My heart broke when she said we had to change loops, but all I cared about was Enoch being safe.  Sure we had done a ton of bad things, but she hit him.  Enoch looked at me with a guilty look.  He tried to walk toward me, but Miss Peregrine was still holding his arm.

"Y/N, go back to your room!" she yelled.

I looked at Enoch who nodded to me.  I slowly walked back up the stairs and into my room.  Emma told me that she would talk to her, so she left.  I spent the rest of the day sulking in my room and staring out the window.

It was around 1 in the morning when I got out of bed.  I pushed the covers and moved my pillow to make it look like I was still in bed.  Then, I quietly stepped into the hallway.  It was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop.  I shut my door and walk over to Enoch's room.  I try to open the door, but then I realize it's locked.  I am about to knock when the door creaks open.

"Y/N, what are you doing?  Are you alright?"

"Shh, let me in," I whisper.

Once I enter his room, he closes and locks his door again.

"It's 1 in the morning and I was asleep.  Why are you in here?" he groans, sitting on his bed.

I crawl into his bed, and he joins me after.  I feel his arms wrap around me, and I feel warm and safe.  I nuzzle my face into his chest as he caresses the top of my head.  We stay like that until I look up at him.  Even in the dark, I can see his chocolate brown eyes.  He leans down a little a we kiss.

When we pull apart, he pushes a piece of hair out of my face. I smile and can feel myself blush.

"You are so cute," he smiles.

I curl up closer to him, and start to fall asleep.

"I love you," I tell him.

"I know Darling, I love you too."

With that, I fell to sleep in Enoch's arms.

Enoch's POV

I was scared that Y/N and I wouldn't be in the same loop anymore. I love her so much, she is the only one for me. I gently rub her back as she sleeps in my arms. I kiss her forehead and close my eyes. I want to fall asleep, but I wasn't tired. I was still thinking about what would happen if we got split apart.

I tried not to worry about it, because all that mattered now was that she could sleep peacefully in my arms. I try to remember every detail of her. The way she sleeps, her floral scent, her soft hair and the way she breaths. She could of been an angel on earth.

I fall asleep admiring how cute she is, and how much I love her.
