Kris’ POV
Being woken up by pinch in your arm is not fun at all. You’ll find yourself in a daze but it just hurt so you’re forced to really wake up. In my case, I saw who did it, I knew I needed to act like nothing is out of the norm. That I didn’t sleep on Matt’s bed or that it’s the most normal thing in the world to wake up beside him. I tried to look confused, but knowing Matty, he’s probably thinking he’s dreaming. He didn’t hurt me just to do so, he’s … experimenting? For lack of better word.
But all that acting was just in vain, cause it still had the impact that I was initially expecting, he turned red. Then he stopped breathing, then I guess he learned that he stopped breathing so he tried to get as much air as he can, he’s hyperventilating. What the hell do I do?
You have to be calm you little shit.
I heard from a little voice inside my head. I do not know when this started happening but it seems like I have been hearing a little voice in my head lately. It’s creepy, I Know! But going back to the situation at hand.
I got up and started rubbing his back, this the gesture that’s being done by most people in the movies when someone’s crying so I did try it on Matt. Trying to sound as calm as I can, but my voice is weird in the morning, deeper, scratchy, he must have been scared!
“I just don’t want to go back to my bed since am already comfortable, Matty. And you were already asleep, I don’t want to wake you up. We had a long day.”
With a few deep breaths, he started to calm down. This gave me a bit of a relief. He said he was just disoriented and he wanted to go to school.
It was a Saturday, so no school. I did the most normal thing and pulled him back in my chest after saying that. Yes, it’s the most normal thing for me that was rudely woken up, I don’t think straight. So this is normal.
He just froze and I let it be. Reacting to that will give him other things to think about which is not good. “Let’s just sleep in today, its too cold, lets just sleep like this.” But not reacting to him didn’t do the work, I felt his heart beat from normal to almost jumping out of his chest.
This is not good. I have to do something. “Matty I know what youre thinking,” even if I have no idea what it is, but hey, it does something, he looked at me. “please calm down. I just wanna sleep and you’re too fluffy to let go. Please just five minutes more?” Then I pouted. What the effin… I never pout and I just did!
Then a melodious sound blessed my ear. He laughed, he open mouthed, no inhibitions, no trace of almost panic laughed. I must have looked stupid. Of course I got offended!
“Why are you laughing at me??? I just want to sleep moooorrreeee.” I hated how I sounded. Whining, I haven’t done it, but I think it worked. He laughed more and just ssaid it was nothing and we should go back to sleep.
That’s what I did, as soon as I hit my head hit the pillow, I flet comfortable. Even if its been a while since I last had someone to cuddle with since I hated it, it makes my arms sleep, it was okay. Even if I was cuddling with a boy, it was okay. Even if I am acting differently than I used to, it didn’t matter.
In fact nothing else matters aside from comfort that I feel near this boy in my arms. It confuses me sometimes but I am on the point of not caring. So long as I feel good it shouldn’t matter.
