Drake and I were riding in the car, it was dead silent. Its been two days since my dad died and we are still as silent as ever. I dont go to school anymore, Drake tells me he wants me at his side all the time. Which I dont mind, every moment I've spent with him is sparked with magic. I grow to like him more, and more, and more. He doesn't want to risk putting me in danger ever. He makes me happy, and he makes me feel safe. Every moment since my dad has died he has been taking care of me.
"Why did you take me home that night I was dieing?" I asked trying to break the silence.
"I looked down the alley and saw this beautiful girl unconscious, bleeding from a wound in her shoulder. I couldn't just walk by like everyone else around there, so I took you home. I felt I was doing what I was supposed to while you were in my arms. I dont regret anything from that night." He told me. We got to the house at about 9:35 pm. I turned to Drake and walked slowly towards the door.
"You've been so kind to me, I wont burden you anymore." I said sadly while looking outside the door. He walked up to me and looked into my eyes, what beautiful eyes he has! I thought to myself.
"Casey, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you in the alley, I'm can't let you go. I wish for you to stay here with me. After all with.... you know.... you need somewhere to stay. What do you say?" He asked.
"I'll stay with you, your the closest thing I have to family." I told him.
He looked down into my eyes. I was lost in thought.
"I love you." I told him.
"I love you too." He said.
He looked up closed the door and looked back down into my eyes. He leaned in and kissed me, it was amazing. I backed away after a little while and smiled and blushed.
"I should go get my clothes from my house."
"I'll come with you, I'm not letting that bloody man have a chance to hurt you." He told me.
I watched him as he walked past grabbing the keys off the counter walking back over to me reaching for my hand. I grasped his hand and we walked out the door to the car. We arrived at my house soon. We walked in together scared to leave the other alone. He grabbed a suit case from downstairs and carried it up to my room.
"I'll pack your stuff, you can say goodbye to your old home." He offered.
"Thanks." I said smiling.
He nodded and started packing my clothes. After about an hour of saying my goodbyes to the house, Drake walked down the stairs.
"Need anymore time?" He asked.
"I'm good, lets go."
We walked out the door, I turned around looking at the house, frowning. I turned back to the car and stepped in. I turned and looked at Drake he smiled and kissed my cheek. I smiled back.
Once we had arrived back at the house I unpacked all my clothes into the new dresser Drake had put in the room. Once I was done he walked up to me and pulled a strand of my hair from out of my face and placed it behind my ear.
"You dont mind sharing a room do you?" He asked nervously.
"No, I dont mind." I told him sweetly.
"It'll make me feel safer." I told him snuggling up in his arm. He smiled and laughed a little.
"Well it's 11:47pm and we should go get some sleep." He said smiling.
I walked over to my dresser and picked out some clothes to sleep in. I got them on and walked out of the bathroom flopping onto the bed and slid under the covers. Drake lay next to me, breathing silently. I turned to him and moved a little closer after getting a little chill up my spine. He turned to face me he leaned closer and gave me a quick kiss.
"Good night."
"Good night."
I we stayed where we were looking into each other's eyes as we fell asleep, smiling the whole time.
