(Marley's POV)

I was walking upstairs from my nightly round. When I passed Luke's room the door was open. He was laying on his bed, perfectly silent, staring at the ceiling.

"Knock, knock." I went in.

"Hey." He said blandly.

"Whatcha doin?" I asked, rocking back on forth on my heels.

"Nothing."

Silence broke out like wild fire.

"Do you remember that night in the bathroom a few weeks back?" I blurted out.

"Yeah, I don't know how I would forget that." He made me smile.

"Well, Thankyou for that. I was kinda a mess. And I'm sorry for yelling at you then too."

"It's okay. I get it."

"We cool?" I asked.

"We're cool. "

With that I laid next to him and we stared at he ceiling together for atleast 15 minutes. We played music. I'm glad me and Luke are okay now.

I started to fall asleep.

"Marley." He tapped my shoulder, but I was 3/4 quarters asleep and I wasn't moving.

(Luke's POV)

"Oh Mar." She fell asleep in my bed.

I took a pillow and a blanket from my bed and set up camp on the floor. I didn't wanna move her. She looked too peaceful, the way her eyelashes fluttered, and her chest moved steady with her breaths.

"Goodnight Marley." Then I fell asleep too.
