CHAPTER 31:

Emma's POV:

I am woken up by someone shaking me by my shoulders and saying something.

"Hey! Emma! Please get up!" Someone says. I slowly open my eyes and see.. Jeremy?

"What happened? Everything alright?" I say in my groggy voice. I rub my eyes and sit up a little straighter.

"Are you alright?" He asks me and he looks concerned as hell.

"Yaa. Why?" I ask him because I am literally so confused right now. What is happening and why is he waking me up at... I look at the table on the clock and it's says 3.56 in the morning.

"Because you were saying something like 'no' and 'help him' while you were sleeping. I woke up to get some water and check up on you" he says.

"Ohh.. it was nothing" I can't tell him that I had a nightmare. It's the second time he has seen me like this and I can't do this anymore.

"It didn't look like nothing to me. Can you just tell me what's going on?" He almost begs. I want to tell him but I can't.

"It's nothing serious" I say trying him to get him to leave it.

"It is serious. This is the second time this happened in my presence and talking to your therapist, don't think I forgot that one. I didn't ask doesn't mean I didn't see" he says and I feel so good to know that he is concerned for me.

I just look down because I don't know what to say. I feel embarrassed. I start fidgeting with the blanket in my hands. I feel his hands under my chin, pushing my face up slowly. I have nowhere to look but his eyes. Those eyes always get me swooning over him all over again.

"If you're not ready right now, it's okay. But you'll tell me when it's time, right?" He whispers and is talking like he is talking to a five year old. I just nod my head at him.

After looking at me for a moment, he asks me to sleep. He sleeps with me and I don't have to ask him. He puts his arms around me and I wipe my tear that fell. I am so lucky to have such an understanding boyfriend. I don't even know if I can call him that. Technically, he hasn't asked me and we haven't even gone for a date. I realise that I have to stop overthinking and just go to sleep.

I am asleep within minutes.

---------- NEXT MORNING----------

I wake up because I start feeling a little sweaty. I am surrounded by Jeremy. My back against his bare chest. His hands are over my hands and his face is buried in my hair. I try to turn around but as I move a little, he grunts and pulls me closer.

I take a look at the time and it is 8 in the morning. I try to get out of his hold but I can't get out of it. I will have to either wake him up or wait for him to wake up.

"Jer! Jer!?" I try to wake him up but it is impossible to wake him up. He looks like he is still in deep slumber. I do something that I might regret later. I pinch his forearm, infront if my face, with all my might.

"AAAAAA! WHAT THE FUCK?" He shouts but atleast he lets me go. He looks really pissed. I get out of the bed and stand near the window. He looks around and spots me by the window.
