It all started at the party M.B. Story

The morning and surprises

Y/n POV
——————————

The brutal sunlight shined through the curtains of what I thought was my room. Spoiler alert: I was wrong. By a lot.

I squinted my eyes and slowly sat up. I didn't recognize the room I was in. But as I turned, my eyes widened and I literally fell off the bed and fell face-first onto the floor.

I fell asleep in Malachi Barton's bed. MALACHI FREAKING BARTON!!

"Oh wow um ok. Are you alright?"

I heard him say as I slowly got up. I stood back up and sat down on the edge of the bed and saw him standing there. In nothing but a towel and wet hair, I'm guessing freshly out of the shower.

My eyes immediately widened at I took in his abs and biceps. He must have realized I was staring and threw on a shirt.

"Oh sorry about that. Seriously, are you okay also what's your name?"

"Y-yeah I'm okay. Sorry for staring. My name is Y/n." I nervously cleared my throat

He chuckled under his breath, "alright and it's okay I'm used to it."

I mumble to myself, "I bet you are" and I realized how loud I said it

"Oh really? What are you implying exactly?" He grinned and slowly walked closer to me

My breath caught as he stood so close I could smell his cologne. I got nervous and looked down at my shoes and he hooked a finger under my chin and looked into my eyes

Just as he did that, before I could react, my phone rang

I jumped a little, startled by the noise. I grabbed my phone and my jaw clenched when I saw the contact

"Jake"

My heart stopped but i quickly answered before he could get mad

I put on a sweet voice despite my hands shaking

"Yes baby?" I ask sweetly, my voice slightly shaky

Malachi quickly backed up when he realized I had a boyfriend but I grabbed his hand before I could overthink

"Where the hell have you been?! Addison said you left!" He screamed through the phone, making me jump

Malachi gestured for me to put it on speaker. I did. He stayed quiet but was listening

"I'm sorry. Someone tried to touch me so I got a ride home"

"Who?!" He yelled

"Who touched me?"

"No I don't give a fuck. Who gave you a ride home?!" He yelled again, making my eyes sting with tears I didn't know were there

"Am I on speaker?" He asked through the phone

"No" I lied smoothly

"Okay well remember what happens when you disobey me. Don't want to add to those marks. Get home now." He said before hanging up.

My tears came quick and hit down my cheeks and my knees buckled and I leaned my elbows on my knees, sitting on the bed. My hands covered my face as my body started shaking

Malachi quickly crouched down in front of me and gently took my hands and looked at my face

"Hey, look at me. You're okay. I won't let anything happen to you."

Before I could think about it, I slid down to the floor and curled into a  ball in front of him, clinging to him, my hands clutching his shirt like a lifeline.
