Torn (Book 2)

"I've got you and I don't plan on letting go anytime soon...alright?"

Tokoyami POV

Why did it stop...?

I open my eyes and that the lights are still on in Y/N's room.

I carefully push myself up and see Y/N sound asleep.

Good...you need to rest...

I nuzzle her cheek.

I then carefully, as to not wake the sleeping angel, get out of bed.

I turn off all the lights in Y/N's room, minus on small light she seems to always have on.

It's a nightlight type light.

I'm not sure why she has it, but I'm glad she does.

I don't want her to have to try to sleep with all the lights on, but if it's total darkness...Dark Shadow might go out of control.

So, it's better to always have a small light on.

I walk back to bed and lay down next Y/N.

I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her close.

I nuzzle my beak into her neck and close my eyes, soon drifting off to sleep.

Y/N POV

I bolt awake, frantically searching around the room.

I have a terrible feeling...terrible...

I then notice...

There was nothing holding me down when I sat up.

I look to my side and see...

No one.

Tokoyami...Where did he go...?

I then hear a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" I call out.

"Aizawa. I'm here to tell you we won't be having school for a few days...there's a bad storm that'll last a while."

I see...

"Okay..." I say.

I hear his footsteps leave.

I then hear footsteps come towards my door again.

That sounds like...Tokoyami...?

My door opens and I see Tokoyami standing there, with a few plastic bags in his hands.

When he sees me, he smiles,
"You're awake, Y/N. I remember I had a few snacks and thought you might like some. Also, we won't be having school for a few days due to terrible weather..."

He closes the door and sets the bags down on my heated table.

I get out bed and hug him from behind.

"...what's wrong?" Tokoyami asks, turning around in my hug to hug back.

"I'm really sleepy...let's go back to bed..." I mumble, snuggling my face into his t-shirt.

We both get back in bed and wrap around arms around one another.

I snuggle my face into chest and try to go back to sleep.

Tokoyami POV

I feel Y/N snuggle her face into my chest.

I wonder what's wrong...it can't just be that she was tired...

I decide to shrug it off for now and get some sleep.

I remove my arms from around Y/N, so I can get into a more comfortable position.
