Emma's POV

When I woke up this morning I felt really hot. I felt like I was sweating bullets. I opened my eyes and saw Paul's arm wrapped around me and realized we were spooning. Well that explains why I felt so hot. I looked at Paul for a minute taking in his features before I pried his arm off of me which, to my surprise was very difficult, and went to the bathroom to take a shower. I put some music on lowly and got into the shower. While I was in the shower I started thinking about Paul. He is the first person that has ever really helped me through a panic attack. I had a panic attack one night when Lily was over and she freaked out. Since then I've tried to be by myself before I let my thoughts consume. I frowned a little thinking about Lily I hadn't talked to her since I left.

I sighed and turned the shower off. I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around myself. After drying off a little I realized that in my haste to shower and feel clean forgot to bring clean clothes into the bathroom with me. That's just great. Paul is probably still on my bed since I hadn't heard my door open… there was a possibility that he was still asleep. I cracked the door open and saw that he appeared to be sleeping. His eyes were closed and his back was turned toward me. I needed clothes so I tiptoed out of the bathroom to my closet to grab some clothes.

As I was trying to figure out what I was going to wear I heard Paul move and say "Out of the shower?"

I stopped and wide eyed slightly turned around and looked at Paul "You're awake?" Paul looked me up and down before looking at my face and nodding "Yes I'm awake." Of course he was awake.

I nodded awkwardly quickly grabbing some clothes feeling the blush start to form on my cheeks as I felt his intense gaze on me. "W-well I just needed some clothes" I quickly scampered out turning to go to the bathroom but instead running into something rock hard. Funny I don't remember there being a wall there. I slowly looked up only to be met with Paul's intense gaze; I felt my cheeks heat up more as I turned my glance downward "I'm sorry." I felt his hand move under my chin as he lifted my head a little so I could meet his gaze "You don't have to apologize." I found myself incapable to form words from our close proximity so I just nodded. He studied my face for a seconds before stepping to the side so I could get to the bathroom. After looking at him for a minute I went to the bathroom and quickly got dressed. When I was done getting dressed I stared at my reflection for a minute. I moved my hand to my chin where Paul touched me and I smiled a little.

I wiped the smile off of my face and quickly ran a brush through my hair. When I was done I opened the door and was slightly disappointed to see that Paul wasn't there. Of course the disappointment lasted only a second because he came back into my room and plopped down on my bed laying down. I looked at him questioningly "Uh- Is there something wrong with your bed?"

He nodded not looking at me "Yes.'

I raised an eyebrow at him "Oh what's wrong with it?"

He looked at me grinning "You're not in it" And que the blushing. I quickly turned away from him putting my dirty clothes in my basket.

After I busied myself doing something to keep me busy and to calm myself down I heard Paul call my name. I turned to him "Yes?" He had his arms held out in my direction- "Come lay down with me." I thought about for like half a second before walking over to my bed and laying down in his arms. I smiled a little because it was extremely comfortable in his arms. I looked up at his face studying his gorgeous features, they seemed godlike. He smirked a little before looking down at me "You do know it's impolite to stare right?" I shrugged a little. His smirk turned in his beautiful smile "So do you want to do anything today? I could take you on a tour of the town, we could go to the beach, or we could go eat somewhere." I thought about my options for a minute and I buried my head in his chest relishing in his warmth " Can we lay here a little while longer and then go get something to eat?" I felt him nod as I sat there with my face buried in his chest.

As we sat there I started letting my thoughts wander to random things. I realized that I felt something I haven't felt in a long time. I felt loved in his embrace, warm, wanted, comfortable but most importantly I felt… safe.
