"Landon?" I raise my voice knocking on the door, this is his room, it has his name on it at least

"Hey, sorry for not texting you, come in" pushing the door open I smile, stepping through the door, i've been at this school for over half a year and have never been in the regular dorms, they're quite small, two full size beds on either side of the skinny room, with a dresser in the middle.

This is how those colleges in the states have the dorms I think. Cozy.

He allows me to sit on his bed, running his hands through his jet black hair before pulling out the french books.

I though i'd be best if I had a new french tutor, this way I won't annoy Ace ever.

It's been around an hour when my phone starts continuously getting messages. What the hell.

"You should get that, it seems urgent" Landon refers to the unreasonable amount of times my phone has buzzed.

Pulling my phone from under my leg my eyes scan the notifications

"huh" is all I say as I read the texts

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, i'm gonna go, thank you."

"Yeah, text me anytime" his smile beams as he helps me pick up my stuff, putting it back into my backpack.

I stand up walking to the door, looking back at the boy once more sending him a small smile I open the door, met with a wall, my dumbass opened the door did I not? Holly shit that's so embarrassing oh my god

wattpad wall. 🤭 ur fav- elle

"leave" Aces familiar voice rings through my ears without looking at me, his eyes set on poor Landon.

Minutes later after I made it back to my room, unable to stop thinking about what Ace did to Landon the door opens, my body instantly shooting up at the sound. He's holding a paper towel, wiping his knuckles before quickly throwing it into the trash and making his way to me

"Lets go to my room" he reaches out his hand for me to take but I reject it

"Why can't we stay in here? My beds comfy"

"Because we're going to my room, come on" after multiple refusals he picks me up, throwing me over his shoulder

"I'm gonna get dizzy, you have a very flat ass" I smirk using my hands to push off from his back to sit up.

"Princess, why are you staring at my ass?"

"Why are you carrying me over your shoulder?"

"Because you wouldn't come to my room" he finally sets me down as we make it to his door, unlocking it we walk in and I immediately lay on his bed

"Seriously?"

"It's comfy, don't judge me you dragged me here in the first place"

"It's not the end of the world sky, now move over" I oblige moving over so he can lay down beside me, I watch as he takes his shirt off, his abs on display as he lays down

"You know what we should do" I smile and he immediately shakes his head no, "I'm not watching that damn show"

"Please," I can't help but laugh at how grumpy he looks, he's leaning against the head board beside me with his arms crossed over his chest

"We'll watch stranger things, i'm not watching grays anatomy, it's absolutely idiotic"

"Fine, grumpy pants" I scowl at him grabbing the remote from the night stand

As we get comfortable he pushes lower onto the pillows while I stay leant against the head board.

Ace slowly moves closer to me, his head eventually on my stomach making butterflies erupt uncontrollably.

His arms around my waist definitely not helping my stomach calm down at the touch from the boy. A smile grows on my lips while I try to focus on the show.

Ace is laying on me. His soft brunette hair against my shirt. His thumb moving across the exposed skin above my shorts.

Without thinking my hand gravitates towards his hair, I can't help but play with it while I watch the show.

"Sky" I feel his voice against my stomach as I hum in response

"I wanna talk to you"

"We're talking right now ace"

"Yeah, but I want to know you, I don't wanna sit in silence"

"Okay, then we won't sit in silence anymore" He wants to talk to me. He is putting the effort into actually knowing me. I don't remember a time where someone truly wanted to know me.

"I feel like you know more about me than I know of you" I state looking down at the boy as he looks up at me, he knows a pretty good amount of things I like, I barely know anything about him if I think about it.

"Okay, um," he pauses, pulling me closer to him. I can tell he doesn't know how to open up, "My favorite color is blue, not a dark blue but not a light blue, like a mix kind of like the ocean, your eyes remind me of the ocean," it may not be a super deep thing or a big step but I'm glad he's trying, I just want him to know I care.

He unwraps his arms from my waist, did I do something? I watch as he pushes higher onto the bed, pulling me into him so i'm now laying in his chest, I smile against his exposed skin, why does he always smell so good.

"Ace"

"Yeah?"

I trace my hand over the scar on his abs I saw forever ago.

"how did you get this?" Maybe I shouldn't have asked, he's silent, I felt his body tense against me as I said the sentence

"My dad" As the words leave his lips I feel myself tense, "He hurt you?" i'm questioning if he can hear my heart practically break as he said the two words.

"Yea" the answer is practically inaudible, "I'm so sorry ace" I just want to hug him, to make him feel loved, safe.

"Don't be, it's not your fault" I slowly push off his chest, sitting up he looks at me slightly confused, a sad look still in his eyes. I pull my shirt up slightly exposing the side of my stomach, pointing to a dark scar right above my hip, "My dad cut me, right there" my voice is at a whisper, I refuse to look at him, I can't believe I just told him, i've never told anyone before.

I hear him move against the bed, his hand finding it way to my chin as he makes me look at him, "come here" his voice is soft, vulnerable, I allow myself to melt into his arms, he holds me tight as if i'm going to slip away at any moment.

"He's not gonna hurt you anymore" ace whispers into my ear, his soothing voice relaxing me as a small smile forms on my lips. I feel him kiss my forehead, his arms wrapped protectively around my entire torso, my right arm wrapped around his bare chest.

I feel safe. Protected.
