Children Of Magic.

chapter 13

I must have fallen asleep sometime last night, and so had Hugo, he was still laid in the same position as last night, but his hair was all over and he was still asleep.

I turned my face to the side, having one of those girly moments where you can't help but stare at a gorgeous man who is laying right next to you, and the urge to run my hands down his chest or through his hair was tugging at every fiber in my body.

I sat up and placed my feet on the ground. As soon as I did, I winced.

"God dam foot!" I whisper shouted to my toe. I looked back to Hugo. He was now peeking through his eyelids at me with a small smile tugging at one corner of his mouth.

"What are you doing?" His voice was husky, then he yawned and sat up next to me.

I looked down to my foot and pointed at it. "I'm a cripple remember." My voice was rough and I had a seriously bad case of morning breath.

I so desperately wanted Hugo to leave so he didn't have to look at me like this. My hair was probably all over, and like I said, morning breath.

"Ahh yes, I almost forgot. Can I get you some breakfast? Or anything?" He mimicked a posh voice, trying to pretend to be a butler or some sort of servant, but I just chuckled and shoved him in the arm.

"Shut up! You wouldn't like it if this was you!" I mumbled mostly scared to open my mouth too much, but I couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay, okay your right I wouldn't. But seriously, do you need anything?" He looked at me with kind eyes and I think I melted just a little inside. A smile was still on his lips and I couldn't help but stare.

I forgot to answer him as I was distracted by his beauty and I was so totally busted when he blushed and looked down to the foot of the bed and then back up to me with a smirk on his face.

"Eerrm, Diana.... " as soon as it registered in my brain, I opened my mouth to say something, but his smirk was now distracting me.

"I-i could use a coffee." I managed to pull a few words together in a sentence.

He nodded and then got up and left.

I sunk back in to my bed and stared at the ceiling.

I was falling for Hugo. And bad. And I think he new.

I groaned and then carefully stood up, making sure not to put any pressure on my toe, or ankle as best I could as both were still killing, I reached for the pain killers on my bed and put one in my mouth, then walked carefully over to the bathroom and sipped some water from the tap.

I looked up in to the mirror and groaned.  My eyes were all blood shot and my spots had gone all red and puffy. Not to mention the paleness of my face and then the huge dark circles under my eyes. I groaned.

It is true, I didn't sleep well last night, in all my dreams, I end up hurting Charlie or killing Blake and it always ends in the same way, I get carried off by these storm clouds and dropped off in front of a huge army of people, but all their eyes are fully pitch black.

It gives me the creeps.

I walked back to the bedroom, heading for the dressing table where I kept my brush. I brushed my hair and then tied it up in to a pony tale. Then I went back to the bathroom and washed my face and brushed my teeth.

I had just finished and sat back on my bed when Hugo walked back in with a tray full off food and a big mug of coffee in his spare hand.

My mouth fell open.

"What are you doing? I asked for a coffee not a flipping full English!" I couldn't help but laugh and his smile widened when he looked at me. He placed it down on my knee, and then sat next to me with my coffee  in his hands.
