Chapter 4

~The next morning~

I woke, naked next to a, naked, Ross. I glance up at him to see him awake already. "Hi, pretty girl." He smiles genuinely.

I smile and close my eyes. "Hi," I whisper, laying my head back down on his chest.

He plays with my hair for a while. "Baby, you have a fever." He states as he gets up. "You want anything?" He asks, looking down at me.

"No thank you, babe." I smile weakly. He nods and walks out of the room. ~ I wake up in a cold sweat, tears pouring out of my eyes. "Ross!" I yell tiredly.

I hear footsteps and Ross swings open the door, fully clothed. "yes?" He questions, raising his eyebrows. I open my arms and he climbs over me, wrapping his arms around me. "What's wrong?" He asks as he runs his fingers through my hair.

I shake my head. "I had a nightmare." I mumble into his neck.

He sits up and pulls me onto his lap. "You wanna talk about it?" He whispers and kisses my cheek.

I shrug. "Not really." I sob.

He nods and rocks me back and forth. When I finally stop sobbing, he gets up and hands me some clothes. "Come downstairs.. when you're ready, babe." He kisses my cheek and walks out of the room again.

I sigh and stand up. I sit on the floor, feeling dizzy. Next thing I know, everything went black.
