If I'm with you, I'm okay

Start from the beginning
                                        

"Night Alex!" I called, flicking off the lamp behind me, hearing his faint "goodnight" come from the bedroom.

I slivered down the sofa and let my eyes flutter shut, my bottle of pills were safe away in the cupboard as I couldn't risk Alex finding those. Rolling onto my side I groaned in pain slightly, why can't sofas be comfortable to sleep on.

It'd been about twenty minutes of tossing and turning, trying to get comfy on that thing and Before I knew it I'd grabbed my pillow and blanket and was stomping through the hallway toward my room.

"El?" Alex groaned tiredly, sitting up and rubbing his eye as I moved round to the free side of the bed and bellyflopped onto it.

"I am not sleeping on that rock of a sofa." I mumbled into the duvet, Alex chuckled from above me before slumping himself back down onto the pillow. I pulled myself up and adjusted my pillow next to Alex's, pulling the duvet and blanket over me, I sighed In pleasure as I hadn't slept on a bed in what felt like forever.

"You warm?" Alex asked me sarcastically, I glanced over and noticed I'd ripped half the duvet off of his side, a loud laugh escaped my lips as I looked at his unamused face in the faint darkness of the room.

"Sorry." I giggled and threw some cover back to him to which he snatched it and rolled over on his side, then causing my side to have no cover whatsoever.

"Alex!" I exclaimed reaching over his body and tugging the cover back all the while the both of our laughter filled the dark room as a serious game of tug-of-war commenced.

Once we grew too tired to fight over the duvet anymore and just equally gave eachother a fair amount, we both laid on our backs side by side facing the ceiling. My hands linked together resting on my stomach, as I thought about what was going to happen to me; I'd told the truth and the press had caught it on camera, that was enough to let me off the hook right?
God I hoped so.

Alex must've for sure noticed my unease as I tend to shift a little when I get nervous and overthink things, my palms grow slightly sweaty and my breathing becomes staggered.

"El you okay?" He called out into the darkness.

"Yeah are you?" I whispered back.

"I'm alright love thanks, thank you for letting me kip in yer bed." Alex whispered, I found myself smiling even though he couldn't see me.

"Thank you for letting me be a pain and join you." I laughed lightly, Alex let a small chuckle escape his lips too.

"You're never a pain." Alex huffed quietly, his right hand brushing against the skin on my wrist causing me to unlink my hands and lift my left one to meet his, intertwining them together and resting them down onto the mattress in-between the small gap of our bodies.

"Goodnight love." Alex whispered, gently squeezing my hand in his.

"Goodnight Al." I let my eyes knit shut as the smile on my lips never seemed to fade even as slumber took me over.

Would ya look at that a nice peaceful ending to a chapter which is very unlike every other chapter...

Alex is now going into the look of the TRNSMT 2018 Show, so how he looked in that is how he will look from now on (well after the scene of him shaving his goatee).

I know I said I'd update every Friday but I completely said fuck science revision and just wrote tonnes tonight because I wanted to get a chapter out to you all, but I will go back to my updates on Fridays. I hope you're ready for what's to come in the next chapters, I actually cannot wait..
