NORA
I opened my eyes slowly. The light was on, with the ray entering directly into my eyes. I noticed a hand holding mine. I knew it was Lucian. His eyes were closed. He must have fallen asleep while watching me. I hissed. I shouldn't have watched that horror movie with Lucian. If he hadn't stayed here, I won't be able to sleep. I rolled my eyes and sat up, staring at his cute face. He looks so cute while sleeping as a strand of hair falls down his face. His mouth was slightly opened. I chuckled. I was tempted to touch his face and then his lips. I don't how I come to like him. Mind my word, like not love. I stretched my hand to touch his face but when he moved back a bit, I pulled back my hand. I chuckled. I stretched my hand again and touched his face. His eyes opened rapidly. I quickly pulled back my hand and pretended to look at the ceiling. "You... Are you awake?" He asked, stuttering slightly. Seeing the look on his face, I wanted to chuckle but decided against it. "You're..."
I nodded. "Yes, I'm awake"
He nodded and pulled his hand away from mine. I chuckled. He rolled his eyes and stand up. "I should leave"
I batted my lashes. Does he want to leave? Can't he just stay here, until I sleep again? I don't think I can stay in this room alone. He turned to leave. "Wait!!" I yelled
He turned and stared at me. "What? Do you want something?"
I sighed. "Can... Can you follow me to the kitchen, please?". He furrowed his brows. "I need to get snacks to eat"
He raised his brows. "You're hungry?"
I nodded and he sighed. "I will get something for you"
I groaned. I can't stay in this room alone, not with the horror movie he made me watch.
"Made you watch?" My subconscious mind said
I ignored it. He turned to leave.  "Let me go with you"
"You don't have to". Before I could say a word, he walked out of the room.  I jumped up from the bed and ran after him, but bumped into him at the door. He caught me fast before I could fall. "Hey, be careful". I strengthened myself. He stared at me and I tapped my feet on the floor, clutching my clammy hands together. "Hope you're not hurt?"
I rolled my eyes. "No... No... I'm not". He nodded and made to leave. "Can I go with you? please?"
He stared at me for a while before nodding his head. I shrieked happily but hid it immediately. I trailed behind him as we head to the kitchen.

It was time to go back to my room. I was done eating my snack. Lucian had to wait for me to finish up before heading for his room. I ran after him. There was no way I will sleep in that room alone. He turned to look at him and I turned, pretending to look for something. "I know you're following me. Just tell me what you want. I need to sleep"
I chuckled nervously. "Ca... Can... Can... I... I sleep in your"
"You want to sleep in my room?" He asked almost in a yell. He was staring dangerously at me and I felt like melting.
I chuckled nervously. Why do I feel so nervous right now? I sighed. "I'll just go to my room"
I turned and ran off. I entered my room and locked the door behind me. I was panting heavily. Gosh, that look of his can kill. I looked around. All I could see were scary faces. Why did I watch the movie in the first place? I should have just told him I don't like horror movies. I heard a knock on the door and I jumped. "Who... Who... Is that?"
"It's Lucian. Open the door"
I opened the door slowly and peeped. When I saw his face, I sighed and opened the door widely. "What do you want?" I asked
"You want to sleep in my room right?". I rolled my eyes. "You can"
I wanted to jump on him and tell him, thank you but I pretended not to want it. I rolled my eyes. "No thanks"
He chuckled and I groaned. "I know you can't sleep in your room alone"
I fake being angry. "I can. Who told you I can't?"
He chuckled. "I know you can't but since you claimed you can, I should leave". I batted my lashes. Is he for real?". He turned. "I'm leaving" he announced.
I rolled my eyes. He's not been serious right? "Are you been serious"
He turned. "Of course. You can either go with me before I change my mind or you stay in your room and sleep"
I rolled my eyes. "You should at least beg me"
He groaned. "Beg you. You can't be serious"
I hissed. "You know what, I will stay in my room". I turned and went to seat on the bed
"Suit yourself" he mumbled and turned to leave. When I saw him leave, I stood up from the bed and ran after him. "Wait up!!"
He ignored me and entered his room. I followed him in and stood rooted to a spot. "You can sleep on the bed. I will take the couch"
I rolled my eyes. Sleep on the couch? I sleep on the bed. Hell no. I don't think he understands that I can't sleep alone. I have to tell him to sleep on the bed with me or he let us share the couch. I sighed. "I can't sleep alone on the bed. Let's share the bed"
He batted his lashes. "you said what?"
"Let's... Sleep... On... The... Bed... Together"
