I was hot, sweating actually. Peeling my eyes open I jumped when I realised I was no longer in my bedroom. His grip around my waist tightened as he pulled me closer.

"What time is it?". I asked.

"Almost 1".

I had been sleeping for hours.

He lay his head back down and slipped his arm over and around my waist. "Go back to sleep. I'll wake you for school in the morning".

So I did. My full body relaxed against him as I drifted back to sleep.
