The end where I begin

Lauren's POV

I woke up Sunday morning feeling a pair of strong arms holding me. I don't remember anyone staying over at all last night, I'm pretty sure everyone left. I was still half asleep and my head was banging so I didn't give much thought.

'Morning Laurs.' I heard Danny's voice and my eyes immediately went wide open. I turned my head and noticed he was lying on top of the duvet just holding me in his arms while I was wrapped in the duvet like a burrito to keep the warmth.

'What are you doing here so early?' I asked shutting my eyes again.

'It's not early at all Laurs, it's 2 in the afternoon. I'm guessing someone's a bit tired and hungover today. I brought you something for yer head and a glass of water.' He said leaning over to the nightstand grabbing the glass of water with the painkillers. I took both and swallowed it quickly.

'So that's why you're here?' I asked. I really had no clue why he was here by now. He's probably been trying to contact me a few times today.

'Since you haven't contacted me yet today I figured you were asleep and tired from last night, so I decided to come over and see you.' He tightened his grip around me. I moved up a bit and rested my head on his chest closing my eyes again.

'Thank you for coming over, I guess I need you here right now. '

'Of course I did.' He kissed my forehead and stroke my hair. I tried mumbling something but the words just didn't come out, I was nearly falling asleep again.

'Laurs you have to stay awake now.' He gently shook my arm to keep me awake.

'I don't want to. I want to stay here with you all day.' I mumbled into his chest.

'As much as I would love that we can't. I suggest you go take a shower while I go and get us something to eat okay?'

'I hate that you're right. I'll go if you give me a kiss.' I said smirking at him. He smirked back at me and gently placed his lips on mine.

'I'll help you up.' He said sitting up in the bed with me. Instantly my head got much worse. I placed my head back on his chest and put my arms around him.

'I don't wanna drink again.' I said pouting.

'We both know you will Laurs. Now get in the shower if you manage.'

'I wanna stay here instead.'

'I guess yer gonna be sleeping alone tonight then.' He said. That bastard. He knew those words would make me do just about anything.

'I'm going right now! But first you need to leave' I said remembering I was only in my underwear.

'Leaving now!' He said getting out of the bed kissing my forehead. He walked out of the bedroom and into the living room. I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.

'By the way Laurs, it's nothing I haven't seen before.' I heard him chuckle from the living room, probably smirking as well.

'Just go get some breakfast would you?!' I shouted from the bathroom.

'I'm gonna go now Laurs, I'll be back in 15!' He shouted while exiting the apartment. I undressed completely and stepped in the shower. I closed my eyes and tilted my head back. My head was hurting so bad right now, but I knew that at some point after food and a shower the painkillers would work and give me some good moments today. I got dried and dressed slowly as I knew Danny wasn't even back yet. I looked at my bedroom where I still had a few suitcases full of clothes I hadn't put them in the wardrobe yet. I had to do it, but I've always been one of those who just push it away until I just can't take the mess anymore. I was annoyed by the fact that everything was on the floor even after a week, but I really didn't want to clean it up as I knew how much work it was. Even after I had washed my clothes I still didn't bother to fold and put them in the wardrobe, I just placed them with all the other clothes in the suitcases which had no order anymore. I decided not to think about that anymore today as I knew that today was not gonna be the day to do this. I went out to the kitchen and took some more water. Just then Danny came in the door.
