Chapter 9 (Hold me)
"We will need to go over sea's for this. Abscam was an island far away from here." Logan said looking down at the map in front of him.
It was late and Lina, Logan, Libby, Connor and I were sitting in the library of Terraite. Every one of us were trying to find a way to get to Abscam, but we have read every book about it and didn't find a way. It's like it just vanished from the world.
I let out a sigh running my hand through my hair. Why is it so hard to find a freaking island!?
"Can't we just go to the place where it was before. Maybe we will find something there." Libby said looking up from a book.
I bite my lip looking back at Logan. I don't know why, but I'm trusting him in this. He knows how to handle these kinds of things.
"We can, but we aren't sure we will find something. It would be days to get there and if we don't' find anything it would be a waste of time."
I don't see another way than that.
"Maybe we should try it."
Everyone looked at me.
"We don't have much time and it's the only thing we have right now."
I wrap my arms around my legs pulling it close to my chest. I was freezing. I was cold before, but now I'm freaking freezing. The cold didn't affect the other because of the magic, but for some reason it affect me more.
"You do know we have to go in a boat, in water, right?" Connor asked.
I frown my brows together giving him a confusing look.
"Yeah I know. Why?"
Libby was the first one to speak.
"Don't you remember what queen Dina said? You won't be save in any water."
Right that.... It's not that I have a choice.
I need to go, I need to go and save my grandmother.
"Libby I will be okay. I will be on the boat all the time." I said trying to convince her that I will be okay. She frown looking away from me, still not sure about this.
"Okay now that we have discus this can I go to bed? I'm tired and I really need sleep if we are going on the journey." Lina said through a yawn.
I nodded my head and she thanked me.
"Go you need all the rest you can get. We will go in two days. We first need to find a decent map and a boat." Logan said looking back down at the map.
I watch as Lina stood up and walked out the room. Libby was leaning against Connor trying not to fall asleep, but her eyes were slowly closing.
I look at Connor before nodding at the door. He gave me a small smile before picking up Libby in his arms. He said a quick thanks before walking out the room with his sister in his arms.
It was just me and Logan now, which scars me. We haven't been alone ever since we had that fight with Ragnar and Felix.
I wasn't really looking at the maps or anything. I just didn't want to go to sleep. It's not that I would have a good night sleep.
The cold is keeping me up all night. It doesn't matter how many blankets I take I always have it cold. I rub my arms with my hands trying to get the cold feeling away, but I fail.
Why is this happening?
Something warm slide over my shoulders pulling me out of my thoughts. I look up and saw that Logan had place his sweat over my shoulders. A soft smile was placed on his face while he looked down at me.
"You looked cold." I gave him a small smile back before looking back in front of me.
He walked back to his place in front of the maps not looking back at me. It was nice having warmth for once. I quickly pull the sweater closer to my body.
With the new source of warmth my eyes slowly began to close, but I didn't let them. I needed to stay awake. We need to make a plan. Slowly and before I knew it my eyes fell shut.
My back hit something soft, but I was too tired to open my eyes. I roll on my side letting out a deep sigh. I hear someone chuckle, but it didn't bother me.
A warm hand stork my cold cheek sending warmth through my whole body. The touched made me feel save and loved. A pair of lips touched my forehead and I slowly open my eyes.
I watch as Logan pull away from me letting out a sigh. His hand let go of my cheek and coldness came back. No.
Before his hand was out of reached I grabbed it. He turned around surprise when he saw that I was awake.
"Hazel are you okay?"
I nodded my head.
"Why are you leaving? Can you stay?" I whisper quietly before I realised what I just said to him.
I don't know why I said it, maybe because I was just sick of not getting any sleep or warmth. It seem that every time I'm with Logan I have some warmth back into my body. A confuse look came to Logan's face before he kneel down next to my bed.
"Well I thought you wouldn't want me here, let alone sleep without you in the same bed. We aren't together any more remember."
Trust me I remember it every day. I bite my lip looking down.
"I'm sorry." I whisper.
I know I can't asked him to stay with me. It would be weird and wrong. I have hurt him really bad in the past and I can't asked this from him.
"I shouldn't have asked that." I whisper before turning around.
Why was I so stupid to asked him that?
Hazel idiot you broke his heart and now you're asking him to sleep next to you. I feel the covers being removed before the bed slump in behind me.
I could feel the warmth on my back before he even touched me. For a few minutes we just laid there not saying anything. I know he wasn't asleep.
"Hold me." I finally said after debating with myself to asked him.
Seconds passed by and I thought he didn't wanted too, but an arm was wrapped around my waist pulling me to a hard chest. I let out a sigh grabbing his hand in mine before closing my eyes.
Lips were pressed against my neck before going up to my cheek. I was holding my breath and didn't know what to do.
Slowly he turned me around so that I could face him. His hand was on my cheek holding me in place so that he could look at me.
"I missed you so much."
He whisper before kissing me.
