Banned in a book

Sam’s POV
I woke up to a slight snoring and got a shock, who would be snoring in my room?
I quickly sat up and then all the memories from yesterday came crashing down on me.
Oh shit, the guy from the book… Brian…

I went to the bathroom quietly and took care of my business, I didn’t wanna wake him, he looked exhausted and I felt a little sorry for him, even though I had no idea how to deal with him.
And if this was really true, how should I handle the next month?
If he couldn’t go back into the book and I couldn’t leave him for more than a couple of feet, then I had to think of a solution for this… how am I supposed to go everywhere with him?
How should I work?
What should I do?

I had to talk to Selena, does she know what this book had done? Did she know what this book could do?
I still couldn’t believe that I really believed into the book and magic but the guy sleeping next to my bed, was making me consider that this really was magic…

How far could I get without waking him?
After I was done in the bathroom, I looked at him, still sleeping peacefully on the floor and decided to at least try my way towards the kitchen, maybe that distance was okay.
The living room was a little further, so hopefully the kitchen wouldn’t wake him.

I slowly walked downstairs and stopped every now and then to listen if he was awake or not, when I didn’t hear anything I entered the kitchen with a small sigh.
So this was safe, good… I would make us some breakfast and then maybe the thinking would get easier, with a belly full of delicious treats.
I haven’t been cooking for anyone since… well since my ex-husband… so this was weird.
I also grabbed my phone from my bag and sent a text to Selena to call me when she could and asked her how Trevor was.
I put the coffee machine on and thought again, would Brian need anything to eat?
I mean, he was a guy from a book? Does he need food? Was he really a guy, a human one?
God, this was so weird… Brian and I should have a talk when he was up that was for sure.

My phone suddenly started to ring and I jumped over to it to quickly pick up.
“Hello?” I asked a little out of breath.
“Sam? You okay?” Selena’s voice sounded on the other line.
“Yes, I’m okay… How is Trevor?” I rushed out, I wanted to get that out of the way before this conversation would turn really weird.
“He is okay, still in pain… but nothing broken at least. I need to go to the hospital with him again, get his bandage changed, but the doc said he will be able to walk again until our wedding… and he better be, or I’ll break him something else, I can promise you.” Selena said and I chuckled, poor Trevor.
“That’s good. Send him greetings.” I said and waited a moment, not really sure how to tell Selena what happened yesterday and who was sleeping in my bedroom.

“Selena, I-” I started but was interrupted by a male voice behind me.
“Is that coffee? And Pancakes? Oh fuck… that smells freaking delicious” Brian said and nearly ran down the stairs and dug into the plate I placed there for him.
“Sammy? Was that a man?” Selena asked and I opened my mouth but nothing came out.
“Sam? IS that who I think it is?” Selena’s voice grew louder.
“DID IT WORK?! SAM?!”
“I.. sorry Selly, I need to… I’ll call you later” I said and heard Selena curse “DON’T HANG UP ON M-”
But I did exactly that.

Brian’s POV

I haven’t slept this good in ages… and maybe that was even true, who knew?
I woke up and it took me a moment to realize where I was and who I was with… but then I remembered it…
Sam, my new woman of the month…

I had slept on her floor and I knew I must have fallen asleep before she even showed up again from the bathroom, but I was suddenly so tired, that I couldn’t keep my eyes open… I had really needed that sleep.
And when the delicious smell of coffee and pancakes waved through the bedroom door nothing was holding me away from the kitchen.
I dug into the food, not really caring what Sam thought of me, why would I…
It tasted so good, and the coffee… god… I forgot how good food could taste.
“Brian… are you okay? I didn’t know what you like or need… I mean I wasn’t even sure if you would need food… Crazy, huh?” Sam asked and sat down opposite of me looking at me with a small smile.
“Not crazy… I mean… look at us… right?” I said between swallowing my food and drinking the coffee.
“So you like pancakes?” She asked and I nodded putting another spoonful in my mouth.
“Love it.” I grinned.
“Okay… so… Brian… I think we should talk about how this is going to work… with us, for the next month. I mean… I have to go to work and you… what are you supposed to do… I mean what is this all about? I don’t really get it?” Sam asked and I shrugged my shoulders, not really able to answer her.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t answer that. I mean, I just show up when someone calls for me… I’m staying for a month and then I’m gone… I haven’t found the deeper purpose in this… I know… there must be a reason, but honestly… I can’t freaking remember… I mean… There must be a reason, right?” I asked her back and Sam looked at me with pity in her eyes and I hated that, even though this was a first…
Mostly, when I showed up somewhere… after a moment of shock, the woman had other things in their head that we could do, during my stay… and not question my whole existence… which was kind of nice for a change…

“Hm… okay… so you really can’t wait here, when I’m at work? I mean… I can’t just show up there, with some guy… what should I tell my colleague, my boss?” Sam asked and I grinned.
“Introduce me as your new boyfriend? Who can’t stay away from you even one second?” I grinned and Sam rolled her eyes.
“Not good?”I grinned and she shook her head.
“Not really…”
“Can’t you take some days off? I mean, I don’t even know where I am here… and what’s around, maybe we could do something together… I mean we are together in this for a month, why not enjoy it?” I asked a little hopeful and Sam seemed to think about this.
“Maybe… a couple of days, but not a whole month… but I have to think about it… I need to… give me a second.” Sam walked over to her phone and dialed a number, I saw her biting on her bottom lip and damn, that looked sexy, I could imagine her biting on something else…
Wow, Brian… hormones much?!
I felt my cock stir in my pants and realized again, just how long I have been without a woman’s company…
Shit, but I better keep that a secret for now… I don’t want to scare her away again, just when we came into talking at least.
“Ethan? Yes… Hey…” Sam’s voice sounded so friendly, who was Ethan?
“No… nothing wrong… did I wake you? Ohhh Sunday.. yes…” She laughed softly, and I realized I haven’t really heard her laughing before.
“Do you think it would cause big trouble if I got tomorrow a day off? Maybe Tuesday too?” Sam asked and then she listened for a moment, biting her bottom lip again, and I licked my lips in reflex, shit…
“Okay… well Monday, it is… Sorry, didn’t thought about that.. yes, no that’s fine, really. Don’t worry. Then, have a nice Sunday… yes, alright.. Until Tuesday and thanks… really… bye.” Sam hung up and sighed.
“Well one day at least…” She smiled shyly and I nodded, at her returning her smile.

“I have to ask you something…” I looked up and she frowned.
“Sure…” Sam nodded at me to go on.
“I… I know this is asking much, but I don’t have any clothes, like I said yesterday… I own only the things on my body… would it be possible to… you know, get me a spare set of clothes for my stay here?” God, how much I hated to ask for something… Have I ever been this way?
“Oh… OH, damn.. You are right, and if I really have to keep you around, we should buy you something… I mean, I have to take you with me to work and everywhere else I need to go… We should really think of a story to tell.. I mean… I can’t tell anybody the truth, or they will close me in and throw the freaking key away, if you know what I mean…”
“I think I know…” I chuckled and Sam returned my smile “Okay, then let’s brainstorm for a good solution and tomorrow we will go shopping together.”
