Chapter 5

Morning is here and the sound of the city is loud.

She's still fully asleep.

I guess my little experiment took a little out of her then I thought.

I'm trying to be good.

I check the time on her I phone again. I've been doing it every few minutes. Everytime I get close to her, her breathing accelerates and she becomes restless but she doesn't wake.

I move to the window again and lean on the sill, I can see people walking down the streets, there is a dog barking out the window of a second story window just beside us, he keeps barking at me, huh?

The constantan movement from outside is dizzying.

I walk out the room to her small living area and try and sit on the darkest corner.

I know that if I'm still for awhile, she'll wake.

…..

Her hair is in a high messy bun and her sunglasses will covering the dark circles under her eyes. She's chosen to wear skinny jeans and a lose t-shirt today.

I know that she has to go in today, but I don't want her too.

I hide her keys.

She practically tears the place apart looking for them.

I keep sitting in my dark corner as I watch her throw the pillows from the couch, and move furniture over to look for said keys.

I'm a total ass-hole for doing it.

But I don't want her to go.

Not yet.

Not while I can protect her.

Not while I think I love her.
