"I'd do anything to cuddle up to you, lay my head on your chest and fall asleep while you hold me right now."
– Unknown
Anna POV
I took her to her room. I helped her change her clothes and made sure she was comfortable in her bed. She looked cute in my hoodie. As I was about to let go she whispered in her sleepy voice "don't go Annie", holding my arm ever so gently. I smiled at her and stayed.
I hummed to her
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away"
Her eyes soon closed, she was resting asleep in my arms.
I whispered to her, " You know, Maddie, you deserve the world. You're really sweet and caring. You need a person who realizes that you have two laughs, one which you're being caution and the other when you get a laugh attack. You deserve a person who tries their level best to hit on you even if you're too "innocent" to understand. You deserve a person who laughs at your childish behavior when you fail to keep serious in deep conversations. You deserve a person who tries their best to be with you. You deserve a person who makes you smile, supports you when you cry or when you are puking your guts out or when you are dancing like crazy. A person who won't hesitate to lift you up when they know that your heels made your feet hurt. You are too precious to lose. You deserve the stars and the moon, wait actually the whole universe".
I snuggled with her. Just as the first bite of cold wind creeps under my night-shirt, Madison's hand moves around my middle, warm and soft. In seconds her body is molded to my own, sharing her body heat as easily as I share my heart. I could never let another close to me like this, but she's so different. I've never known a person to always have the right motivations, even when their wrong but there's a purity to her, naivety perhaps, but she's the only flower in the meadow for my eyes.
Then it hit me, I might be falling for her.
I want to fall in love again. I want to open, to trust, to let someone in. But I'm holding back. I am keeping people at arm's length. I am pushing away anything that closely resembles affection because I don't want to take the risk. I've shied away from relationships, from connections, from anything deep or true because I am scared. I don't want to be hurt again.
I gave my heart away a time before, and I ended up with nothing. So now I am on guard. I keep telling myself I'm stronger than that. I keep telling myself that I must protect myself. I will do whatever I can to not venture down that road again.
'Why not you' I heard a whisper but I was too sleepy to differ between reality and hallucination.
A/N - New - Ahh, the angst! Are you ready for the side couple?
