Chapter 4 … Naptime's Over
Melissa's POV
I didn't even make it through one more race. I was sleeping like a baby in Matt's arms. I hadn't slept much since the accident. Especially when I was in my old house. It must've been hours later when I woke up cause my neck was stiff. Matt immediately moved when I did.
"Sorry I feel asleep on you. I didn't drool did I?" I giggled a little. Drool? I don't drool what am I a dog? I need to think before I speak more often.
"Nope all dry, but thanks for the drool warning for the future." Matt smiled.
I could get lost in that smile.
I looked around the room for a clock, but alas no avail. Reaching in my pocket I remembered I left my cell phone at Grams' house.
"Matt do you know what time it is?" I said almost in a whisper.
"It is just a little after 11pm" he whispered back to me.
I had originally whispered to prevent distracting anyone from the game, but I think whispering looked suspicious. We had the entire group looking at us.
"Melissa?" I heard Grams shout.
Saved by the Grams! I walked over to the stairs and saw Grams sticking her head in the door.
"Joe's going to drive us home. Are you ready?"
"One sec Grams, be right there."
I said my goodbyes quickly and darted up the steps. Joe drove Grams and I home. As we got out of the car she kissed him quickly. I should've seen that coming.
Once we were inside she showed me to my new room. I was bigger than the one I had back 'home'. There was few dressers, a bookshelf, and a queen sized bed.
"Well my room is just across the hall if you need anything. Joe said we are more than welcome at his house tomorrow for dinner." Grams smiled.
I hadn't heard her this happy in so long.
"Ok Grams, just wake me in the morning."
She kissed my head and walked out of the room. I began to unpack some of my clothes, but soon got tired. I finished on of the bags, the rest I could easily leave for tomorrow. I threw on sweats and a tank then headed off to sleep.
Author's Note: This is a very short chapter so I am posting 2. I could've made them both 1 chapter, but I like them better separate. I dunno I'm weird. Thank you for all your support Harley! And thanks to all the other readers!
