Finding The Match

Chapter 17.2

CAMILA


This is the hundredth time I have opened my eyes hoping to see a black figure at the foot of my bed and closed my eyes again with a relief washing over me when I couldn't find any. This horror movie...
I shouldn't have watched it. I have my blanket all over me and I am clutching it tightly...So tightly that my knuckles are white.

It's very late right. Oh wait. IT'S 3:15 IN THE NIGHT !! IT'S THE DEVIL'S HOUR !!!
The Devil's Hour was 3:15 or 3:45 ?? I am confused.
Whatever it is I can't sleep here right now. What if some evil spirit tries to pull away my duvet ?? Then it will take me under the bed and tear my flesh....NO NO NO !! I don't want this to happen. Please God save me. I don't wish to die young. I am still virgin !!
When I was small Oliver used to tell all the children stories of witches, ghouls, evil spirits. Though they never used to win at last but still they do kill people before the hero actually kills it. Maybe I can become on of it's prey today-
Oh my gosh....Not now, not now !! I have to use the bathroom. How will I go ?? I am too scared to even put my feet down to the floor. What if a hand grabs my ankle and then takes me to the deep dark caves of hell ?? I can't control it anymore. Should I pee in the bed and then I will probably wash it in the morning. Camila !! That's gross.
Oh yes !! Maybe I should call Ryan I don't have the courage to yell his name or go to his room....He must be asleep, should I wake him up ?? I think I should he will understand. It's better than peeing in bed.

I picked up my phone and dialed Ryan number and on the 3rd ring he picked up.

''What happened ?? Is everything okay ?? Any problem ??'' He sounded a little sleepy but worried at the same time. Of course it's so late in the night, what is he supposed to do other than sleeping.

I replied, ''Yeah. I have to use the bathroom.''

Abruptly he busted into laughter. He is making fun of me now. Here comes the annoying Ryan. He couldn't even speak properly he was laughing so much, ''You...You are..Hahaha...scared...Hahaha...''

I was so annoyed, ''What ?? Stop laughing I am not scared I was just checking if you...If you were okay.''

There is no point to tell this. I have already told him that I need to use the washroom and he is no fool to not understand that I am afraid to go to the washroom alone. When I watch the movie I am not scared even a bit but after that, I am not even able to catch even the tiniest of sleep. I thought I was grown enough to watch horror and not get scared to go to bed alone. But I just busted my own bubble You suck Cam !!

He said composing himself, ''It's fine. I am coming.''

He hung up that was it. He came and stood outside of the washroom while I did my business in there.
Ryan you are a life save.

I came out and he said with a humble smile on his face, ''You are scared right ?? That's fine no need to be this shy of admitting that, you can sleep in my bed, I will sleep on the couch in the room. Like this you wouldn't be sacred anymore.''

Wow...I am so touched. He is such a caring person. To be honest if I were in his place I would have laughed the crap out of me and probably also teased him forever !! He understands, everything, every person and doesn't judge them. He genuinely wants to help everyone.
But it isn't appropriate that he will sleep on the couch while I sleep on this bed. Maybe I will try to sleep and then I can sleep probably...

''Ryan, I have no problem with it but I am not sleeping on your bed while you sleep on the couch uncomfortably. You have to work, you have office in the morning.'' I said.

He raise his left eyebrow and said, ''No, we have to work, we have office in the morning. How will you work if you don't give your body rest ??''

I can't do this to him but we can't even miss office tomorrow we have a very important meeting. What should I do ?? I have to sleep but if I accept his offer then how will he sleep ?? Maybe we can share the bed for tonight...No !! Have you gone nuts ? What's into you don't think like this.

''You are such a jerk.'' my mind said.

''No...it's a good option actually.'' I argued.

''No it's not. You can't do this. What if he isn't comfortable doing it ??'' my mind said, this can be so annoying sometimes.

''No you shut up. I will atleast suggest this and let's see what happens.''

Now here comes my little mind, me and out agreements. I sometimes oppose it and do whatever I like. I don't know much about the result but I have fun while doing it !! So I looked up at Ryan and said, ''Okay listen don't take me wrong but I have an idea.''

''Shoot'' he said.

I said with a weak smile, ''Maybe we can...I mean don't take me wrong..I don't have any other intentions but it is the best way I find right now, maybe we can share the bed...'' I quickly added ''...I mean like this we both would be able to sleep properly.''

He nodded his head but kept it down despite of his tries I can tell he is blushing really hard !!
He said, ''Yeah...I don't mind...Let's go.''

We both slipped into the duvet and he took a pillow and set it between us so that I wouldn't feel uneasy to sleep like this.

My heart's racing so fast it feels like it will pop out. I am sleeping with Ryan beside me ?? Oh my god !! I don't know what to say. I am speechless. I feel like throwing off the pillow that is keeping us apart and go hug him hard !! Girl control yourself. You don't day dream so much this is never going to happen...
Maybe it can happen. You never know...!!
That's it !! Now shut up please for God's sake shut up !!

I murmured a good night to him and turned to the other side so that my back was now facing Ryan.
I soon drifted to sleep. It actually helped. When Ryan's with me...I don't have to worry about anything.

I was about to crash my lips on those juicy pink lips, I was just an inch away from tasting him...
He murmured Camila while I said Ryan and it was just happening when the alarm clock started ringing !!!!
Yes.....Now I know I am shameless I was dreaming of a make out session with Ryan. I dream of that everynight. But till now I struggle to get that one kiss even in my dreams. Will I ever get one in reality ?? You are sickening !!! How do you think like that always ?? How do you mange to think so clean always ?? I thought. Note the sarcasm

I opened my eyes and found a sleeping Ryan. He was still sleeping though the alarm was ringing and then after a while it stopped. He was sleeping soundly. His long lashes brushing his cheeks, his lips slightly apart and his hair all messed. He looks like a baby-

Wait what ??

We don't even have an inch of gap between our bodies. I was actually sleeping so close to him. My right leg on top of him, my hand on his shoulder and my face was buried into his hard but very warm chest. His arm was snaked around my waist.

WHAT !! You sick girl ?? You slept like that last night ? God knows when you went to his side and throwed away the pillow. It is lying on the ground. You are so DEAD. Though you had the most comforting sleep you ever had. You slept for a few hours but you still don't feel drowsy. You feel good. Why is it so ?? Your body is entangled with this Greek God sleeping soundly next to you and you are doing nothing ?? Get up bitch !! You are taking advantage now !!

I got back to my sense and sat straight up suddenly. Of course, to that Ryan also got up and he said in a morning voice which sounded damn sexy, I want to eat him as my breakfast, ''Good morini-'' he looked at me and saw me sitting close to him and the pillow lying on the ground and realized everything, ''I am sorry, I was sleeping I didn't realize-''

It's my fault. I did all that. He shouldn't be apologizing for this, ''It's my fault. It's because of me. I..I am really sorry. I did all this. I throwed the pillow away'' I said looking down at my fingers.

He nodded and I left.

I am kind of happy. But why ?? It feels like I have something for him in my heart. Something something, which I never felt for anyone else ever before. Even after all this I don't regret doing any of this. I wish to do this again. I wish to sleep in his comforting arms again. I want him. Does he also feels the same ??
