Chapter 34

"Sleep with me today," he holds on tightly as I rest my head against his chest, numbness falling over my body as he walks out of the room.  "Stay with me," I mumble as he puts me down on his bed.  "I will." He promises me as darkness drifts me away.  **** The sun shines on my face as I open my eyes and stare at the ceiling.  I let out a deep breath, remembering the nightmare.  Remove it from your mind. Ava says to me as I breath out again.  "Good morning," I hear his voice. I turn my head to the side to see Alec laying on his stomach, his hands under the pillow, and his back completely bare as he looks at me.. "Good morning," I reply, quietly.  I had forgotten that he had come last night and woken me up.  "Are you okay?" He asks as he yawns and sits up in bed.  "Yes. I'm sorry about waking you up last night," I apologise to him as he watches me.
