Waking up in the arms of the woman you love is such an amazing feeling. Her arms are wrapped around me and my head is on her chest while I listen to her stewdy heartbeat. It's almost 6 meaning her alarm is going to go off any second now and she'll have to wake up. But until then I can listen to her heartbeat.

I lay awake in my thoughts until the piercing shrill of her alarm rings through the air.

"Morning beautiful."

I look up to see those hazel eyes I'm in love with.

"Morning baby. How'd you sleep?"

"Definitely better with you in my arms. Why are you up angel? It's really early and you don't have school until Monday."

"Uh I've been up since 4? Maybe 5?" I said slowly.

"Baby. Why didn't you wake me up. 2 hours is a long time."

"It's okay. This happens alot and I usually just stare at my ceiling."

"What woke you?" she asks me softly.

"I had a nightmare. Anyway we should get up now. You should go shower, I took out a set of clothes for you last night. I'll go make some pancakes for breakfast. And a surprise. So go shower in the meantime baby."

She knew I was going to deflect the topic of my nightmares. So she left it and went to the bathroom, not before kissing me good morning.

I got up and changed. My body is still healing and I'm still in pain but it's not as bad as it was a few days ago which is a relief because it means I get to go to my home.

I left the room and saw Joe's room still opened meaning she slept at the hospital. I took out everything to make blueberry pancakes since they're her favourite. And bubblegum milkshakes for her. I want to ask her to be my girlfriend today, officially.

While I prepared breakfast for us I blasted some rock. Greenday to be specific. I must look weird. Standing in an oversized tshirt dancing along to Billy while I sing into a spatula, occasionally flipping pancakes. I flipped the pancake and went to check on the milkshake in the fridge, I made it last night when my sleep broke. After that I went back to singing and finishing up the pancakes.

I was slightly startled when I felt arms wrap around me from behind and kiss my neck before whispering in my ear,
"I could get used to this."

I shut down. Memories flooded my head of him doing this. Hugging me from behind when he got drunk and was 'nice'. I broke free of her grasp and turned to look at her.

"Can you please not do that? Hug me from behind? Also I made breakfast but could you please set the table?" I said in a soft voice because if I spoke louder, it would crack.

She kissed my cheek and I stiffened up. I heard her let a sigh out and leave the room while I finished up the last pancake and mustering up all my strength to face my lady.
I walked into the dining room and saw her sitting on the set table.

"Blueberry pancakes baby." she looked at me and smiled.

"Thank you. Are you okay?" she grabbed my hand as I set her plate down.

"Yes I am. Thank you for asking. I'm just going to get something to drink." I said as I took both our glasses to the kitchen.

I poured the bubblegum milkshake and came back to her.

"Here you go baby. Bubblegum milkshake. Your favourite." I said as I sat it down in front of her.

"Why thank you. Any reason for all this?"

"Uh I wanted to ask you something but I don't know how and I don't know if you noticed but I'm really nervous and I'm rambling so I'll shut up now."

She giggled at my nervousness before taking my hand in hers and using her thumb to stroke my hand.

"No pressure baby."

I took a deep breath in and looked at her and God is she stunning.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

It took a second for my words to hit her but then she smiled and looked at me.

"Yes."

I got up and went around to her side of the table to give my girlfriend a kiss. She's mine. I get to call her that.

"But what about school? You're my student. This is wrong and illegal. I could go to jail. But I want you. So we have to be careful okay?"

"Nopee." I popped on the 'p' and smiled at my confused girlfriend.

"I transferred schools. The people who did this to me got me from school. They don't know about my apartment or job but they knew about the school so I transferred to one closer to me. And don't you have to get home to do some work?"

"Nope. I am going to help you get adjusted into your apartment again. Make sure you're okay."

"Okayy baby. Thank you." I lean over and kiss her again.

"Don't thank me idiot. Now eat your breakfast. The sooner we get it done the sooner we get to jump into bed and cuddle."

I nodded eagerly and finished up my breakfast.

———

I'm currently sitting in the couch waiting to leave. Rach insisted on doing the dishes because I'm still injured and should be resting. But I've been cleared to go back to school and work, I didn't argue because there would be no point.

"Hey baby ready?"

I looked up to see her sleeves rolled up and her looking at me with a really beautiful smile.

"Hmm no." I pouted out.

"Why not?"

"I want kisses first."

She looked at me like 'are you serious'.

"Baby. You'll get. I promise. When we're done okay?"

I pouted.
"No. I want one now. Please."

I gave her my best puppy dog eyes and it succeeded because she came over and gave me a kiss.

I smiled in success and she pecked me on the lips again.

"Okay now what do I need to pack up?"

I laughed at her and she raised an eyebrow at me.

"Baby I'm helping. Don't argue."

She sighed but let me help pack my stuff.

"Okay so all the clothes and school stuff. Which I'll take back on Monday. And then the stuff in the dressors. There's 2 bags. I'll get the dressors and you get the clothes?"

She nodded and we got to packing which didn't take long. We loaded up the car and right now we're on our way back to my condo to unload.

When we got to the parking lot and she parked her very nice car, I put my hand on hers.

"Baby. The condo has practically nothing in it okay? I'm just warning you that it's not much and yeah."

"Hey baby. I don't care. It's yours, paid for by your hard work. I don't care that it's got nothing okay?"

"Okay."

We hauled up everything and I showed her around. It was basically just a mattress and boxes.

"How about we go shopping later? For your apartment?"

"Wouldn't that be suspicious though?"

"We could invite Joe? Maybe she'll come along? I mean it's 3 right now. We can go when she gets off work? Or tomorrow because eveything might be closed."

"Well yes that sounds perfect. For now though, how about some McDonald's and cuddling?"

She nodded excitedly and we decided it would be best for her to go pick up the food.
