God, I went through so much. It’s like a nightmare and hard to believe that it happened. Am I still in the nightmare?
I slip on my soft and comfy clothes, braid my hair and throw it over my shoulder. There is a knock at the door causing me to jump. “Come in,” I tell Isaac.
The door is pushed open and he’s standing there holding a bag with my medications. “Here is your medicine. It’s time for your pain meds.” He opens the bag and takes out of one of my pills then hands me a bottle of water.
“Thank you, Isaac.” I take the pill and swallow it down. “I also brought some snacks,’ he tells me and I smile around the water bottle.
“What did you bring me?” I ask as he backs up and motions to the bed. Popcorn and other random snacks are thrown onto the bed with some sodas.
“Oh, I have been craving popcorn.” I slowly walk to the bed and grip the comforter, trying to ease onto the bed so I don’t hurt myself.
Isaac is hovering and I know that he’s trying to stop himself from helping me. He moves to sit in the chair across the room.
“Isaac, you can sit up here with me,” I tell him.
He studies my face like he’s making sure I’m sure about it and I am. I want him to sit up in the bed and be comfortable with me.
“Alright.” He walks to the other side of the bed climbing in next to me. I pull the blanket back and cover my legs.
I take a handful of popcorn and take a bite, the saltiness hitting the spot. “What kind of movie do you want to watch?” I ask him.
“Something funny?” he suggests.
“That is perfect.” Sad movies are definitely the last thing I need right now.
I sit back in bed, snuggled up under the thick blanket and warm pajamas. My eyes grow heavier by the minute.
Isaac
I don’t move, I don’t even breath when her head rests on my shoulder. Her eyes are closed and her breathing is even.
I sigh, reaching around her. I lift the blanket higher so she doesn’t get cold. She lost a lot of body fat during... FUCK. I can’t even think about it without getting fucking murderous.
She is beautiful, so fucking kind and when her smile reaches her eyes, she is dangerous.
The things that happened to her shouldn’t have happened. She needs to be protected and fucking cherished above all else.
It’s fucking insane to say, but I know she is mine.
I just wish that I could have kept her safe from all of the bad shit in her life.
I'm going to make it my mission to make sure that it doesn’t happen again.
I would bet everyone’s fucking life on it.
I turn down the TV so a loud noise doesn’t wake her. I use my phone to turn down the smart lights so she can rest.
I would rather cut off my fucking arm than move and wake her. Sleep is easy for her but peaceful sleep is rare.
The atrocities she has suffered haunt her dreams. Hell, they haunt me and I didn’t endure it. I would give everything to take it from her and let it happen to me
It fucking kills me that I can’t fix it for her or take it from her.
But I can make sure it doesn’t happen again and make sure that the rest of her life is a happy one.
She sighs and scoots closer to me until she is lying against my chest. Should I wake her, just in case she doesn’t want me to be here?
I growl under my breath. I gently touch her shoulder and wake her up. She slowly opens her eyes and looks at me. Fuck, she is beautiful
