A/N - Sorry for the short chapter!!!!
I didn’t know what time it was… but it was late.
My mom left hours ago to do her night shift, and I stayed up all night watching TV because I was bored, but eventually, I fell asleep and I didn’t know how or why.
I woke up, recalling everything when I felt hands on my shoulder.
I groaned in annoyance and shifted over to the other side of the couch.
The hands just slipped under my arm and pulled me up, making me part my lashes when I was lifted into a pair of arms and carried upstairs.
I gazed up at the man, finding Damon smiling down at me.
“You have school tomorrow,” he stated then, smirking, “you need your rest.”
I breathed quietly for a couple minutes, but he just carried me into my room and gently set me down onto the bed.
Despite me wearing a long T-shirt that went down to my knees, Damon didn’t question me on my hygiene this evening… like I would’ve expected him to:
Did you brush your teeth?
Do you need to change?
Do you need to wipe off your make-up?
The fact that mister “imma take care of you” here didn’t ask that, made me realize he’d been watching me for a while, and knew I already did them.
Damon pulled the covers over me and gazed down, smiling as he pulled some hair away from my face.
“Am I like a doll?” I asked sleepily as he stroked my hair gently. “That you play with?”
He gazed down then, smiling. “If you were a doll, you would be made of porcelain. And I would protect you from anyone who dares to attempt to shatter you.”
I smiled then, blinking lazily. “Are you calling me fragile?”
“Possibly,” he said then, smiling, “but you can’t break something that’s already broken, can you?”
I just buried my cheek in the pillow, smiling up at him. “You’re calling me broken?”
“We’re both broken, Angel,” he responded, pulling the covers higher over me as he smirked, eyes glowing a slight green. “But that’s what makes us so unique. We can stand even when we shattered.”
I parted my lips when he sat on the bed and brushed more hair away from my face. “Now go to sleep, my fallen angel.”
