Ashton

What am I doing?

I crawled into bed and pulled the covers up to my neck. Yes, technically we’ve been in the same bed before, but this was different.

My couch was comfortable but not large enough for his size. He’d be half on the floor, half on the couch, and that would just be mean of me. And his offer to sleep on the floor was even worse. I knew he’d probably reek of liquor and I couldn’t have him in my bed smelling like that.

I’d never be able to sleep.

Hell, I’ll be up all night at this rate.

He never asked about my glasses or looked at me funny because I was wearing them at three a.m. I was so worried about covering my face that I forgot I was wearing shorts and a tank top. My stomach was covered but not my thighs. I did my best to make sure he didn’t see those scars, but he didn’t look like he could see straight anyway.

He was pretty drunk.

But he looked happy.

Of course, I froze when he touched my leg; he was close to some of my scars. I couldn’t deal or begin to explain the reason they were there so he couldn’t know about those.

My poor heart was racing but it's mild right now. I’m not sure if it’s an actual panic attack or the fact that I told him he could be in my bed.

I’m not sure how I feel about any of this either. It’s kind of like I’m on autopilot right now.

Linc walked into the room and pulled his shirt off as he made his way to the bed. He dropped it on the floor and tugged his pants off next. The shirt on the floor was going to bother me, but that thought quickly washed away as I saw him reach for his boxers.

“What are you doing?” I asked mortified of what he was about to do.

He stopped, leaving his boxers on. “I usually sleep naked. Habit. Sorry.” He crawled on top of the covers and laid down on his stomach, facing me. “Thank you, Ash,” he whispered.

“Welcome,” I whispered back.

I rolled my head over and stared at the ceiling. I have to sleep with my glasses on. I couldn’t take the chance of him waking up before me in the morning. Maybe he’d get curious? What if my glasses fall off? Can I really sleep this way for the next few hours without moving?

“Linc, could you promise me something?”

“Anything,” he said settling into my bed.

“I have to take my sunglasses off to sleep and…”

“I won’t look.” He reached out and felt around for my hand, and linked our fingers. “Promise.” He squeezed my fingers slightly, and that was the assurance I needed.

I heard his breathing even out, and his hand relaxed into mine.

I went back to staring at the ceiling and woke when my alarm went off at nine. Linc was still out and I wasn’t about to wake him. He needed to sleep it off.
