Chapter 9
..:Toby POV:..
After Zach drove us home, it took me forever to convince him to let me stay and watch over Ash. It even took longer to convince him to let me actually stay in the room with her. I just needed to stay with her, to make sure she's okay. I guess he understood because he kept checking on her every five seconds.
I leaned against her desk and watched her sleep. That's creepy. I wasn't doing it creepily. Just watching because I'm worried. That's a good excuse. Right? Anyway. She was curled up under her blankets and sleeping peacefully. Thank god. I wasn't sure if she'd have nightmares. Maybe the drug was making sure she was unconcious. She looked like an angel... My angel. Before I knew it, I was laying down with her and holding her tight into my chest with both my arms around your waist. I soon fell asleep next to her with a huge smile on my face. I'm sleeping with her. She'd slap me if I said that out loud.
~~Next Morning~~
I woke up to someone moving and I groaned. I didn't want to get up yet. The person went still then tried moving again. I opened my eyes to see Ash trying to get up. I grinned and dragged her back to me then rolled on top of her.
"Where do you think you're going kitten?" I watched her trail her eyes down my shirtless chest and over the bulge in my boxers. I had to undress, just my jeans since Ash still wore my shirt, because it was getting too hot in the middle of the night. She also had a huge comforter over her bed. It was fucking hot.
"Ahem. Baby, done eye raping me?" I smirked at her. She looked up at me and blushed then tried moving away again.
"No no no no. I don't think so!" I grabbed her hands to pin them above her head making my shirt rise and show her smooth thighs. I licked my lips and looked at her and grinned when she tried to look away.
"Is my kitten shy? Don't wanna look at hot Toby?" I bent down and ran my nose down her jaw and neck.
"God, you smell so good." I mumbled against her skin. I felt her shiver and try getting her hands out of my grip. I tightened my hold and kissed down her neck then sucked a little. I blew over the wet spots and heard her quiet gasp. I finally released my hold on her hands and they immediately went to my hair to pull me closer to her lips. I kissed her hungrily and clutched her hips in my hands. I was about to run my hands underneath the shirt when her brother came in and grabbed me.
"Are you stupid?! She was almost raped last night and you're trying to make a move on her!" He yelled at me. He started punching me. I was too focused trying to soften the blows to hear Ashley yelling.
"Zach! Stop! I wanted him to kiss me!" I watched her try and pry him off but it was no use. He got up and kicked me in the stomach till I was coughing up blood. I groaned once I heard a rib crack. Hopefully it was just a crack not a break. I'd have to go to the hospital if it was a break and there's no way in hell I'm going.
"Zach! You're going to kill him!" She pushed him back and kneeled next to me.
"Oh my god Toby. I'm right here." I kept coughing as she grabbed a towel and put it underneath me. She kept cooing at me till I stopped and started falling asleep. Hope I don't have a concussion. Oh well.
"I'm right here. I'll be here when you wake up, baby." She kissed my head and I soon feel into darkness with a smile on my face. She called me baby.
..:Ali POV:..
After Toby fell asleep I got up slowly and went to give a piece of my mind to my idiotic brother. I stormed downstairs and started pounding on his chest.
"You could've killed him! Why are you so stupid! I hate you!" I kept screaming at him and he just stood there and took it. Zach just shook his head, walked out the door and drove off. I was grumbling under my breath when I heard Toby come down the stairs. Well, more like lean against the railing and sort of slide down. His face was red from holding his breath and probably the pain. I should probably tape him up.
"What are you doing? You should be resting!" I grabbed his arm and tried to tow him back upstairs. He took his arm back and stroked my cheek.
"My mom texted me asking me to come home. I'll come over tonight though, okay?" I sighed and agreed. "But not before I tape you up. Sit on the couch. It'll only take a few minutes."
He wanted to argue. I could tell but I guess he saw the stubborn side of me because he stayed quiet and went to sit down. Lay down. He was doing something. I quickly went to the bathroom and grabbed the first aid kit then went to kneel down in front of him. I first took out some band-aids and triple antibiotic cream for the cuts on his face. Once they were done, I went to his ribs. Luckily he didn't have a shirt on so he wouldn't have to hurt himself more to take it off. I grimaced at the sight of bruises already forming and there was a lump on his side. Maybe a rib was poking his side. That's gross. I shuddered and took some gauze then slowly yet tightly wrapped it around his torso, making sure to cover up the lump. He groaned and held his breath several times but once I was done, he looked like he was about to pass out.
"Maybe you should stay here and take a nap." But he shook his head and managed to stand on his two feet. He kissed my cheek and slowly limped to the door then left. Stubborn ass.
~~Later That Night~~
I was laying in bed when I heard a tap at my window. I frowned and got up to look out the window only to see the outline of a figure. Oh god. Was it Mark?! Or a burgular?! Was this my last night to live?! I should stop watching so many scary movies.
"Kitten! Let me in! It's freezing." I heard a gasp of pain. Kitten? But only.. Oh my god. Toby! I went to the window and quickly opened it. I backed up so Toby could climb in or fall in I guess. I closed the window and switched on a lamp.
"Are you crazy?! You could've gotten hurt!" I hissed at him and helped him to my bed. He just smirked at me and sat down. He pulled off his shirt and set his keys, wallet and phone on the table next to my bed. I'm glad he kept the gauze and band-aids on. At least he's letting me take care of me. I went downstairs and got frozen peas, intending on laying them on his ribs so the swelling would go down. I'm glad he allowed me to do that too. But he didn't stay awake long enough for it to help.
"Goodnight kitten." Was all he said as he laid down on my bed. I just stood there and gaped at him. Soon I heard snores. Lazy ass. I was about to lay down but Toby's phone buzzed and lit up. My curiosity got to me and I looked down to see a text from.. Madi?
'Had a great time tonight, babe. Hope to do it again ;) maybe have a little longer session'
I backed up to the wall and slid down it. He was with her tonight? He was supposed to be with his mom! He lied! I hugged my knees and cried silently. I thought he liked me.. I thought he wanted me. I mean, he saved me from almost being raped! Maybe he only did it because it was his brother. Maybe he felt like he had to. I glared at Toby's sleeping form and got up. I was about to yell at him but I decided not to. Instead, I grabbed a blanket and pillow and went into Zachs room.
"Zach!" I whispered. He groaned and rolled over then sat up.
"Ash? What's wrong?" He rubbed his eyes and turned on the light. Tears were still going down my cheeks.
"I had a n-nightmare" I lied. He opened his arms and I immediately went to him and cried into his chest till I fell asleep with a broken heart and my trust broken. I guess that's what happens when you fall for the bad boy.
