Chapter 13 - 13

I leaned on the back of the couch behind him. "Thank you for stealing my supper." He said. I kissed his cheek. "What are you wanting now?" He asked.

I came around and sat on his lap. He looked at me like 'seriously?' "May I wear it?" I asked him. He sighed, letting me. I curled up, still on his lap. His arms were comfortably around me.

After the first movie, the guys got showers. Logan was the last to shower. He came out in basketball shorts and the shirt he had on before.

"Did you plan on sleeping in that shirt?" Aaron asked. The guys all turned to look at him. "Someone got to my shirt before I could." He told them.

I kept quiet until he came over and put me on his lap. "Thanks for stealing my shirt." He whispered in my ear before kissing me behind my ear. "It's comfy and smells like you," I whispered back.

"If only we guys could stay in the house tonight. I'd snuggle up with you." He said. Then thunder rang out and a flash of lightning. "Looks like the guys are going to have to stay inside the house tonight." Amber pouted.

Logan kissed me again. "Oh, my blanket is in my truck. Would you go get it for me?" I asked Logan. He got up and put his boots on. He went out to my truck and got the blanket out of the back.

Then ran back and pulled his boots off outside. He came inside and threw it at me. It was wet. "Amber, where's the dryer?" I asked. "Second door on the left past the kitchen." She told me.

I put my blanket in the dryer. "Tess, may I have my sweats?" Logan asked, stopping the dryer to throw his shirt and shorts in. I nodded. Luckily, his shirt went mid-thigh on me.

I gave them to him after getting a pair of my sports shorts out of my bag. So for an hour and a half, he had to walk around the house without a shirt on. Even though he had a shirt for tomorrow in his overnight bag.

Once the dryer was done, I grabbed my blanket and wrapped it tightly around me. He changed into his basketball shorts and curled up under my blanket with me. It was warm!

"Nice. You're both under a blanket." Xavier said, looking disgusted. Logan's hands were resting on my waist. My head against his shoulder. Then the electricity flashed after a huge thunderclap. It flickered before going out completely.

I curled up closer to his side. My eyes were full of terror. "Scared?" He whispered where none of the others could hear. I set my head on his shoulder and nodded. He kissed my forehead, making me feel a little better.

I hate storms, I hate when they knock the electricity out, I especially hate ones that produce tornadoes and cause serious damage. Logan held me closer, knowing I was scared of them.

Logan's POV

I just held her as close as I could. A fear of storms is nothing compared to other things. It may have been a memory, or something terrible happened during a storm like this.

I remember a storm similar to this one five years ago, except it had snow and ice. She shifted onto my lap. Our phones started going crazy with weather alerts.

Fisher pulled his out and checked. "Severe thunderstorm and flood warning for the county of Harrison until five am Saturday." He said.

Tessie's POV

That is what I didn't want to hear. I moved closer to Logan's side. He kissed my forehead while rubbing my back. I dozed like that until I almost jumped out of my skin when a huge roll of thunder went through.

I needed the sleep. Somehow, I was able to fall back into the doze before finally falling asleep.

Logan's POV

Her even breathing told me she had finally fallen asleep. The major thing right now is that one) she's asleep on my lap, and two) I need to pee.

Carefully, I moved her onto the seat and ran for the bathroom. Once I was done, I washed my hands and ran back. I picked her up and gently placed her back on my lap. I fell asleep holding her in my arms. It was the best feeling in the world.

Tessie's POV

I got into the truck after changing into a pair of jeans and a long-sleeved shirt. I grabbed my truck keys out of habit and went to it. Then I remembered that my boyfriend and I switched trucks.

Oh well, I'm taking mine today. At least I'm coming back here. Once I got to the doctor's office, I went inside and checked in. Then waited to get my X-Ray.

"Tessica Raleigh." A nurse called out. I picked up my jacket and followed the nurse back. I checked the time and realized I had his phone. Oh well again. I texted him and told him I was just getting in.

After getting the X-ray, I had to wait about thirty minutes for the results. Once the results were in, I went to look at them and get the results.

"Well, their mostly healed over the past two weeks, but I wouldn't do any rough activities for another month." The doctor said. I nodded and knew what this meant. "Your meds will be taken off. Ibuprofen and Advil work best at this point." He added.

Well I might be screwed. I had two days left of the pain meds, so I had to make the best of them. "I don't care how you finish them off. Once a day, with the last four you have. You may take one of the two I told you earlier that work the best." He said.

I nodded before I was able to leave. I went directly back to give Logan his phone. Thanksgiving was this coming Thursday.
