I sighed as I felt my boyfriend, Daniel, wrap his arm around me. It was late, probably after midnight, and we just got home from a friend's house. We were both exhausted and ready to knock out.
"Goodnight Kat," he whispered, his breath tickling my shoulder.
"Goodni-"
I was cut off by a loud crash sounding from downstairs.
"What the hell?" Daniel whisper yelled, both of us shooting up in bed.
All of a sudden, our dog started barking like crazy and we could hear him running around.
"What was that noise?" I asked, scared of the possibilities.
"I don't know," he whispered, slipping out of bed.
Daniel quietly walked over to the window in our bedroom and slightly pushed the curtain aside, peering out.
He turned around, a look of concern on his face.
"What? What's wrong?" I asked, tucking hair behind my ear.
"Someone's at our door," he said.
My eyes widened and I cuddled into our bed covers, terriified.
"I'm gonna go downstairs and quiet the dog down. Maybe they will go away," he said, causing me to panic.
"No! Dani, don't go down there! Please," I begged.
"Honey, I'll be okay. Don't worry, just...stay in bed," he whispered.
Daniel walked back over to our bed and kissed my forehead, attempting to calm me down. He then left the room, making my stress levels shoot through the roof.
A few moments had passed until our dog finally quieted down. I heard a loud banging and I started to freak out, worried about Daniel.
Despite what Daniel had told me to do, I slid out of bed and slowly crept downstairs.
I made my way into our kitchen where Daniel was frozen against the counter and our dog was sat next to his feet.
I looked at him worriedly and he put a finger to his lips, gesturing for me to be quiet.
I tiptoed over to him and he wrapped his arms around me, protectively.
I quietly whispered in his ear, "Dani I'm scared."
He rubbed up and down my back, kissing my cheek, anything to calm me down.
There was another banging on the door, this time louder.
Daniel slowly reached behind him and grabbed a large kitchen knife, causing me to cling to him tighter.
"Kat, we're gonna go upstairs, but I need you to go slow and stay as quiet as possible. When we get back to our room, I need you to call 911," he explained.
I nodded and slowly started creeping across the kitchen and up the stairs, my whole body shaking.
Our dog bounded up the stairs, making noise, which caused us both to freeze, hoping whoever was outside didn't hear.
After what seemed like forever, we made it back to our room.
Daniel closed and locked the door, swiftly sliding our dresser in front of it.
I grabbed my phone and dialed 911, my hands shaking.
"911, what's your emergency?"
"Someone is trying to break into my boyfriend and I's house."
"Okay, what is your address?"
I quickly informed the person on the other end what our address was and they said help was on the way.
I hung up and latched onto Daniel, scared shitless.
I let out a small whimper when the banging was heard again.
The banging kept growing louder and louder and I could feel Daniel's muscles tensing up.
"Daniel, what's happening? I'm scared," I cried, burying my face in his shoulder.
"I don't know, sweetheart, but it's going to be okay. The police are on the way and I'm right here, I'll keep you safe. I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you," he comforted.
We cuddled close, holding onto each other for dear life.
A few minutes later, we saw red and blue lights flashing through our window.
Daniel quickly got up and raced to the window as I followed behind quickly.
We peered out the window to see an older man, probably in his fifties, being bent over the hood of a police car and handcuffed.
"C'mon, baby, let's go downstairs. They got him," Daniel said.
Daniel moved our dresser back into its place and we left our room, walking downstairs.
Daniel quickly put the knife back before walking to the front door, opening it to reveal a woman police officer.
"Hello, are you two alright?" she asked.
"Yes, we're fine," Daniel informed.
"Alright, good. You did the right thing by calling the police. This guy is wanted in four different states. He's very dangerous so I'm glad you two are alright," she explained, causing us both to go wide eyed.
We talked to the police officers for a little while longer before wrapping everything up.
Daniel and I locked our door and made our way upstairs, exhausted, but wide awake from the previous events.
We collapsed on our bed, just wanting to sleep.
Which was not easy for us at the moment, considering the fact that we were both kind of shaken up.
"Daniel, I can't sleep," I whispered into his chest.
"I know, me neither. I'm really tired though," he yawned.
I yawned too, yawning really is contagious.
"You're safe sweetheart, remember that. Just relax and shut your eyes," he said, kissing my head.
"I love you, Daniel."
"I love you too, Kat. I'm always going to keep you safe, never forget that."
