CHAPTER FIVE
SURVIVOR'S GUILT
Steve didn't know if he was asleep or awake or somewhere in between. All he knew is that he was lying next to the girl he was truly, madly and deeply in love with.He couldn't quite believe it, still not sure if it was a dream or not, but Mavis was asleep in his arms, her head lying on his chest as his arms were wrapped around her waist.
However, there was something he was sure of: he wanted to wake up next to her every morning for the rest of his life.
Steve let out a content sigh, tightening his grip on her frame slightly as he closed his eyes again. He felt so at peace...
If only that peace hadn't been disturbed by Eddie's voice echoing through the basement.
"Hey, Wilson, this is Eddie the Banished. You there?"
Mavis opened her eyes slowly, looking at her surroundings to make sure of where she was, and that's when she remembered the group had decided to stay another night at the Wheeler's. She wanted to stretch, but she somehow couldn't move. Someone was holding her.
She looked to the person that was next to her, and her heart stopped when she saw it was none other than Steve. He was sound asleep — he was actually awake but he decided to let her believe he was still sleeping — and his arms were wrapped around her.
Had they slept like that throughout the whole night? Maybe... maybe that was the reason she hadn't had any nightmares.
"Wilson, are you there? Earth to Wilson... Wilson!"
Mavis let out a groan before she freed herself from Steve's grip — not noticing the small pout that had appeared on his face — and stood up, walking over to get her walkie-talkie and answering it.
"Eddie, can you please shut the fuck up?" she ran a hand through her face, trying to help herself wake up.
"Wilson! It is so nice to hear your voice."
