I tossed in turned in the bed. Having a nightmare about me in the dark cellar chained to a wall. I was dirty as if I been there for weeks. These big buff men, about 3 of them, came in and start kicking the hell out of my stomach. I jumped up and let out an ear screeching yell.
When I felt hands wrap around me I began to panicked trying to get out of its reach but they just trapped me back in. I realized that it was just Larry and I became more stable under his touch. He didn't ask me questions, just kept holding me in his arms letting me know that everything's alright.
I looked to the side seeing it was 3:45 in the morning. How I was feeling, I knew I wasn't going back to sleep with fear I might pick up were I left off. He placed my head in his chest continuing to rub my back as he slips back into his sleep.
Everything was so vivid as if it was real or something. When I heard low snores coming from him I decided to get up and take a shower. I need to occupy myself before I do something dramatic. I let the water run until it become the temperature that I want then go in letting the water take over me.
I washed my hair and other things before I hopped out. The cold air generated goosebumps. I grabbed 2 towels, one for my hair and one to dry off my body. Entering my room, I still see Larry laying in his pervious position when I left. I slipped on some sweatpants and a tank top.
I crawled back in the bed reaching to his side to confiscate the remote. Surfing through the channels I did see anything interesting so I settlers for Family Guy.
" Why are you up ?" He rubbed his eyes and clicked his phone on " Its almost 5 in the morning babe"
I shrugged " Can't sleep "
He turn on his side facing me looking me with concern eyes waiting for me to explain.
" I had a dream that I was in the room, and theses men came in and " my breath was caught in my throat. " Kept kicking my stomach"
He sat up fulling letting the covers roll down only covering his hips on down. I faced him as he scooted closer to me and gave me a soft kiss on my forehead.
" I'm here babe ... I'm not going to let anybody come in here or wherever and let them take you away from me." He finger came in contact with my chin guiding me to look him directly in his eyes. His face become hard at the thought of someone taking me from him arms.
Time flew by and we still haven't went to sleep. We stayed up and continue to watch reruns of Family guy until we heard the door open downstairs. Larry partially pounce to the door in the blink of an eye. He gestured me to stay put as he goes she what was going on.
There were two different types of footsteps I was hearing until someone clashes against the floor. The sounds of a wounded Larry made me race downstairs to see him laying on on the ground in fetal position.
" I'm sorry Larry I didn't know that was you" my mother apologized.
" What happen ?!" I bent down to see if there was any scares on him.
" Your mom decided she wanna throw vases !" Larry groaned rubbing his side.
"It's dark as hell so you wanted to creep on me as if I knew you were here" she yelled.
I literally palmed my face and shake my head. These are the people I truly love and have to deal with. My mom helped him up before guiding him into the kitchen handing him frozen peas for his side. She excused herself to her room leaving us alone in the kitchen.
" You are ok baby " I playfully pouted.
He gave me a stale face " Yes Asia, I'm fine as ever even though your insane mother nearly broke my rib cage with a damn vase"
