I awoke to movement, not realizing were I was I fought the mass that seemed to be attacking me. I thrashed, arms flailing. Only for my wrists to be held above my head and to be pinned to the mattress.
"Damn, sleeping in the same bed as you is like sleeping with a bear."
"Eli?" I said still a little confused but memories coming back to me now.
"No, it's the fucking boogey man. Who else?" He said letting go of my wrists still pinning me down.
"Yep, it's defiantly you. Could you get off me now?" I said putting both hands on his hard chest pushing him off, he didn't budge.
"I don't know you might attempt to beat me up again." He said turning his face to show a big red mark on his cheek that was rapidly diminishing.
"Oh, don't be a baby you heal way faster than me. It took me a full two days to get rid of the black eye and bloody lip."
"Hey, you pack a mean punch."
"I've been told. Can you get off me now?" I said putting both hands on his chest attempting to push him off again.
"Touching me doesn't make me want to get off you." He said with a smile. I instantly dropped my hands.
"You are not being a good bodyguard or person taking advantage of an eighteen year girl with a dislocated knee, and being a perv about it."
"Ha, don't play the damsel in distress, miss mean right hook. I am being a very good bodyguard." He accentuated 'very' by nuzzling his face into my neck bringing a chill to my spine, instantly making my nipples obviously hard through the thin fabric.
"Get off me!" She growled
"I don't see why, you obviously like it."
"That doesn't mean I like to like it."
"Wow." He said rolling off of me.
"Wow?"
"Yes, wow I haven't met a more stubborn person."
"I don't like needing help from you, I simply try doing it myself first."
"Ha, simply try first. Try hurting yourself more."
"Why are you such a jerk?"
"I don't remember you saying that as you cried yourself to sleep last night in my arms."
"As I remember I didn't exactly throw myself into your grasp." I snarled.
"You were just willing."
"Ha, I just gave up because I was so tired and you attacked me."
"Attacked you? Yeah, right you were upset and I calmed you down didn't I?
I didn't want to take this anymore I sat up and attempted to get up and hopped a few feet then wobbled falling to the side landing on my back."God, damn it." Eli hopped out of the bed and stood up, standing there in just boxers looking down at me. Then bent down and grabbed me by the hips.
"Hey! I'm fine right here." I shouted but he just looked down at me.
"Well, I'm not fine with you right there."
"To bad." I said calmly.
"No, to bad for you."He said picking me up faster than I could abject. "It's not a good idea to run away from an argument with me."
"I didn't think we were arguing, I thought we were having a lovely conversation."
"Ha, then I can't wait to have an actual argument with you."
"I know you can't." I said with a smile. He stood there just cradling me."Hey, while you're up carry me to the bathroom."
"I'd be delighted." Eli set me down in front of the toilet and walked out shutting the door. After a few moments I called him back in.
"I'm just so happy you are actually taking my help." He said walking back to his bed setting me down.
"For now."
"That gives me something to look forward too."
"You're welcome."
"I'm going to grab you some clothes."
"Don't be gone long." I said sarcastically.
"Don't worry I won't." He said with a wink. I fell back on the bed stretching my arms out taking a deep breath and letting it out audibly.
"I'm back, you miss me."
"It's like you where gone hours." I said eyes narrowing.
"Put this on." He said throwing me a pair of jeans and white blouse w/ undergarments.
"Where did you get these?"
"My sister Laura had been outfitting Annabeth so she volunteered to outfit you too. She had more than one closet full of clothes; luckily she's your size."
"Oh, okay."

I rolled over and stretched un-entwining myself from Collin waking him. I looked up at him and he gave me a half smile. I busted out laughing at his appearance.
"What." He questioned.
"Your hair." I giggled random parts of it was flattened and others sticking straight up like he was mentally ill. I ran my fingers through his blonde locks fixing his crazy hair.
"Rough night?" I laughed.
"Actually yeah, you rolled about all night making random moans and sounds. And kept waking me up you moved around so much, you have a bad dream or something?"
"No, not bad exactly."
"Then, what?"
"It was a very, very good dream."
"Oh my god, you're dreaming about too you're just obsessed!"
"I'm sorry but the dream was very nice." I said letting out a breath.
"Keep in your pants." He joked.
"If you got it out of your pants I wouldn't have an issue."
"Haven't we had this conversation?"
"Yes but you haven't given me a solid answer. Are we are or not having sex?"
"The answer is yes, eventually either when I lose control or otherwise."
"I'm guessing you want otherwise?"
"Yep."
"What exactly is otherwise?"
