Officer Prescott

Chapter 67

It was 8 hours later. I counted every single hour until trevor came home. I didn't hear from him at all and I was laying awake even four hours after tucking Mackenzie in. She asked about him, and I had to say that he was okay even when I was scared he wasn't. I was terrified.

I honestly started to fall asleep, and was on the verge of going into a deep sleep when I felt his hand brush hair behind my ear and I looked up at him.

"Trev." I said softly and went to sit up but he stopped me.

"Relax. I'm fine. Sleep. I have to get a shower and everything and it's late." He said softly.

"Are you okay?" I asked and he nodded.

"I'm fine. It was just a long night." He said and I sat up and wrapped my arms around him. He wrapped his arms around me too and he kissed my cheek.

"I'm sorry I didn't text you or anything that I was on my way home. My phone died. I wanted to call you a few hours ago but I couldn't." He said.

"It's fine. I'm just happy you're okay." I said and he kissed my cheek again.

"Go get a shower and come to bed. Please." I said and he nodded.

"Come get a shower with me." He said.

"Trev." I chuckled and he smiled. The entire room was dark because there were no lights on, but I could still see him and his smile.

"Come on." He said and grabbed my thigh.

"It's 2am. I have to go to bed. I have to wake up in 3 hours." I said.

"Then I'll just wait until tomorrow and get a shower." He said and he stood up and took his belt off. Thank god. I was hoping he would just lay down and cuddle with me. He unbuttoned his shirt and he wasn't wearing his vest, which meant he took it off already, but it didn't make sense why he would. I just ignored it though as he stripped down to his boxers and he climbed in bed next to me after.

"What happened on the call?" I asked.

"Some jackass was holding his girlfriend hostage in his apartment and he was refusing to cooperate with police. He said he had a bomb, he didn't. He did have a lot of fucking guns though. Almost all of them but two were illegally obtained by him or stolen." He said.

"How did you get in the apartment without him hurting his girlfriend?" I asked.

"We had to take the risk. It took us 6 hours to even attempt to make a move. We just realized we needed to get it done and go in. The swat team was there, but of course I had to help fucking lead them in." He said.

"You had to help? Trev, you're just a cop-"

"I know. I know. I'm fine though so it's okay. I missed doing my job anyway. It was fun." He smiled weakly and I kissed him.

"I was so fucking worried about you all night." I said and he kissed me again.

"Im sorry. I kept thinking about you all night." He said as he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and I nuzzled into his chest. I just needed to feel his warmth and for him to hold me. I felt so safe when he was with me, and him keeping me safe meant that he was safe too.
