                                     Nora

Colby picked up immediately, fortunately! I was so happy to hear his voice again. I was scared af and I was checking if someone is behind me every single minute.

"Hey! I'm so happy that you called instead of texting back"- Colby said and laughed. I tried to hold my tears and pretend that I'm super happy.

"Hey I-"- I couldn't do it. Everything I wanted was to cry with Colby next to me. I wanted somebody that supports me.

"Nora...is everything okay?"- he asked already nervous.

"I-I don't know how to e-explain...are you alone?"- I asked.

"Yes yes totally! Sam went out with Katrina! Where are you?! I'm coming to pick you up"- he said. I smiled tears still falling from my eyes.

I explained where I was and he said he would be there in 5. 

                                       ***
I was getting really cold checking my phone every second. Finally, I saw a single car stoping by my side. It was Colby. He got out of the car and ran to me.

He checked my face and my hands. He saw the bruises and froze playing with my hands. He looked down at me.

"Are you ready to explain to me now?"- he asked peacefully.

I didn't say a word. I just hugged him as tightly as I could. I wanted his hands wrapped around me every single second possible. He hugged me back and caressed my head while I was peacefully sobbing.

"You are cold, Darling"- he said and took off his hoodie leaving himself just with a t-shirt on.

"Oh my god cover yourself, I don't want you sick!"- I said. He just stood there still handing me the hoodie.

"Just like that, princess"- he said and helped me put on the hoodie. He smiled at me and caressed my cheek.

"Everything will be okay...as long as I'm here nobody can hurt you"- he said and opened the car door for me. I got in and he got at the driver seat. He started the car. I was starring out the window already.

He drove to his place. We didn't speak a word to each other. It's like we were strangers to each other's. We were actually strangers...but it was different. I've watched so many videos of him and Sam and I know them so well already. He is a good soul and I will possibly bring so many problems to them...I'm a bad person...

"We are here"- Colby said and shook me carefully. I turned to him. I put on the hood because I didn't want him to see my dark circles under my eyes.

"What's that for?"- he asked and took it off. He smiled at me.

"It smells really good"- I said smelling the sleeves.

"Awwww thank you! Finally a single compliment from Nora, wow, I'm honoured"- he said sarcastically and got out of the car. He opened the door for me again and I got out.

He was walking in front of me and I noticed that he was offering his hand from the back. I smiled and took it. His hand was so warm that it melted my whole heart.

We went in and he went to the kitchen I guess.

"You can sit! Feel free to do whatever you want"- he shouted from the kitchen.  I sat on the couch and noticed a camera and a laptop on. He was editing I guess. He was almost ready so it decided to check it out.

The preview of the episode was bomb. I liked it from the first second. I watched for like ten minutes. Colby still hasn't shown up from the kitchen.

"Colb?"- I turned around to search for him.

"I'm coming, just a couple more minutes"- he said. I continued watching the video. I laughed a little bit because he have had zoomed my reaction and they were hilarious. I didn't expect to be that funny, actually.

Finally, I heard foot steps coming from the kitchen and I closed the laptop as fast as I could.

"Ahhh I see you liked the video"- he said and laughed sitting next to me.

"Yeah it actually turned out pretty well! I love it just like all the other videos"- I said and forced a smile. He handed me a plate with a slice of pizza in it.

I looked at him confused.

"How? When?"- I asked and he smiled already taking a bite from it.

"I have my ways, young lady!"- he said with his mouth full. I laughed and pushed him playfully.

"You wanna fight?!"- he shouted jokingly and his face approached mine challengingly.

"I'm not as good as you are!"- I said and looking him in the eyes.

My phone started ringing. I tried to grab it but Colby stopped my hand.

"Leave it! Whoever it is...just leave it you are with me now and I'm gonna make you feel better! I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU HAPPIER"- he said slowly Pointing himself. I giggled and turned off my phone without looking who it was.

"Good! Now ..."- he said with his mouth still full. He turned on Netflix and handed me the remote.

"What?"- I asked.

"Whatever you want, princess! This is your night"- he said and continued eating. I searched for a movie and chose one randomly. "Fortunately" it was a horror movie. I'm not a big fan of horror because I'm really terrified by contents like these even tho I'm a ghost hunter now...

"Good choice...wait I forgot something"- he said and ran to the kitchen. He came back with popcorn and sodas and a blanket.

"Awwwww"- I said and he smiled covering us with the blanket.

"You are not cold anymore, right?"- he asked sitting down next to me.

"No...just a little bit"- I said.

"We gotta fix that out then"- he said. He pulled me closer to him and wrapped his hands around me. I rested my head on his chest and heard his heartbeat. So peaceful.

"We gonna talk tomorrow...okay?"- he asked and I nodded.

"Okay..."- he whispered and we began watching the movie...
