I laid in my bed, with my hand touching the wall. But I couldn't get myself to sleep. I sat up in bed and threw the covers off me. I slipped across the hall, and with every step I could feel that everyone was asleep. I went over to Bakugo's door and knocked on it.

After there was no answer, I slowly opened the door and I could hear Bakugo's breathing. I tiptoed over next to his bed and laid down on the floor.

"What are you doing on my floor?" Bakugo's voice flowed over the edge of his bed.

"I'm sorry." I said and sat up. "I just don't want to be alone at the moment."

"You don't feel safe do you?" He asked me, and I played with my hands.

"Not really." I said. "I . . . . I almost changed with him in my room. I almost had no idea he was there."

"Come on." Bakugo said and touched my shoulder. I grabbed his hand and he pulled me up onto his bed. "You can stay here tonight."

"Umm." I hummed, and sat on my knees on the edge of his bed. 

"What?" He questioned, and sat up.

"Can I sleep on the inside?" I asked. 

"Sure?" He asked and moved over so I could lay on the inside of his bed. And when I laid down on my side I placed my hand on the wall. 

"Why did you want to sleep on the inside?" Bakugo asked me, and I could tell he was still sitting up.

"I don't like not being able to see." I told him, and knocked lightly on the wall.

"What do you mean?" He asked, and I felt him lay down.

"It's so I can see if someone's coming and I need to get up." I told him.

"Are you really that scared?" He asked me and I petted the wall with my finger tips.

"No, I always sleep like this." I told him.

"Why?" He asked and I laughed a little.

"Growing up . . . ." I said, and drifted a little. "My Dad, was a drunk. And he wasn't the nicest person sober either. So I always slept either touching the floor or the wall so I could feel if he was coming to get me."

"Don't you get tired of that?" Bakugo asked me, and I shrugged.

"I've lived my whole life like that." I told him. "I've just kind of gotten used to it."

"Well not in my room." He said and his arm wrapped around me and pulled me away from the wall. I tried reaching out to touch the wall, but he only held me tighter.

"Bakugo please." I begged him and he didn't budge.

"Relax, no one's coming to get you." He said and as weird as that would sound to anyone else, those words were kind of soothing to hear. I relaxed my body, and let my mind flow. I couldn't see anything. "I've got you, dumb ass. Now go to sleep."
