Revive Me

Manny:
Me and my uncle came back to the hotel after getting dinner. I looked over and saw Rosie sleeping on the couch in the lobby.

"So how about we watch tonight's game? Can't pass up on football" My uncle said.

"Yeah, well I'm kinda tired already. I think I'm just gonna sleep" I said.

"Your choice" He said and walked off to the room.

I walked over to Rosie and picked her up in my arms. I pressed the elevator button to the third floor and waited.

Once we got into my hotel room I placed her on the bed. I always seem to find her passed out.

She woke up when I put her down.

"M-Manny?" She questioned.

"Yeah, it's me. Don't worry, just rest here. Are you hungry?" I asked worried about her.

"Y-Yeah I am" she said and looked down embarrassed.

"No worries, I'm gonna get you some food, I'll be right back. Just lay down"

She did as told and I ran to the truck. I pulled out my left over chicken tenders and fries.

"Here Rosie, eat this" I watched her eat like she was starving, devouring every bite she took.

"Thank you" she said. I smiled at her.

"Are you comfortable in that?" I asked, looking down at her uniform.

"Not really, but it'll be fine"

"No, here" I walked over to my suitcase and pulled out a white T-shirt.

"Sleep in this, it's 100% cotton" She took the shirt and walked towards the bathroom. A few minutes later she came out in my shirt that looked like a dress on her.

She came towards the bed and put her head on the pillow.

"I don't know why I am always the one to find you passed out, but I feel lucky"

"Always find me passed out?" Oh, right. She was drunk at that party, I doubt she remembers anything.

"At that college party, you danced and passed out. I picked you up so people wouldn't step on you" She laughed a little.

"Oh thanks"

"Do you want to sleep here? I can drive you home instead if you don't feel comfortable"

"That's the thing, the place I don't feel comfortable is 'home'"

"I understand. I won't take you there then. You can just sleep here. I'll sleep in the chair, okay?"

"No! that looks really uncomfortable" She said.

"I don't want to make you uncomfortable laying here with you, when you barely know me, Rosie. I'm fine sleeping on the chair. Now get some rest, it looks like you need it."

She nodded and closed her eyes. I got up from the bed, sat on the chair, and closed mine.
