"Was waiting on you to say that," He mused, reaching over and turning off the lamp before slipping under the covers and pulling her close. |
|  |
|
| |
|
"I didn't mean to keep you awake..." She muttered, drifting off |
|  |
|
| |
|
"Didn't want to keep you up," He murmured, pecking her temple as she drifted off. |
| |
|
| |
|
She woke in the middle of the night, half awake stumbling down the stairs and falling the rest of the way with a few loud thumps and a yelp |
| |
|

|
"Damn it am I getting robbed again?" He muttered, reaching into his nightstand and grabbing his pistol before making his way downstairs and seeing it was only Rose. "Oh thank god, I thought I was getting robbed again. Are you alright?" Caden asked, sticking the gun in his pocket before reaching a hand out to help Emily up. |

|
| |
|
She stared at the gun, pure fear in her eyes |
| |
|
| |
|
"Just in case, because after so many times of people breaking in you kinda just gotta get one." He explained, putting his hands where she could see them---empty handed. |
| |
|
| |
|
She nodded, eyes still wide as she took his hand |
| |
|
| |
|
"You sure you're alright?" He asked again, taking both her hands in his. |
| |
|
| |
|
"I...yeah...I think..." She said, keeping her distance as her eyes stayed trained on the pocket with the gun |
