When I blinked my eyes open, I realized I was still cocooned in Maverick's arms. He smiled sleepily at me as my eyes panned up to his. I blushed furiously, realizing I didn't even know if he was gay, and here I was in a full on snuggle fest. Fuck!

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to cuddle attack you," I mumbled, trying to unwind my legs from his, his breath catching as my leg brushed against his morning wood. "Oh, fuck." I groaned, grabbing his blanket and pulling it over my head, hiding my flaming hot face and wishing the ground would swallow me whole. The bed was shaking with his laughter, but it sounded a bit strangled, which made me feel even worse. "I'm so sorry."

"It's fine," he said softly, peeking under the covers at me with his usual grin in place.

"No, it isn't. Here you are being so nice to your gay friend and I'm clinging to you and being all awkward."

He looked surprised at my words, then chuckled softly, "You know I'm gay, right? Plus, I think your awkwardness is charming. Come on, there's probably something delicious waiting for us downstairs."

He didn't push me, instead just walking into the hallway to gather me a towel and an extra toothbrush, placing it on the counter. I slipped in and closed the door behind me, brushing my teeth before hopping in the shower.

The warm water was the final straw, chipping away the lingering bits of armor that were holding me together. My sobs racked through me so hard that my body trembled and I crumpled to the floor, bringing my knees to my chest and wrapping my arms around me, like I could stop it from happening. It was far too late for that to be true.

When I had nothing left, I tried to process through everything. I couldn't just live with Mav, that was obviously not a viable option. But I didn't even know if Carson City had a teen shelter or an LGBTQ shelter. I'd have to look into it today, see what options I had. As a last resort I could always drop out of school and find a job and a place to stay.
