Reassurance.

chapter twenty five.

I woke the next morning to find a note from everybody. My parents had a meeting and then were going out to a ball and dinner, Adam was on the day shift and was out at a party later and Luca was at the office and joining Adam at the same party later but I found Jamie in the house.

I guess the boys had probably 'assigned' him to looking after me.

"Hey." Jamie greeted me as he found me in the lounge flicking through the channels.

"Hi" I smiled up to him. It was midday and I had enjoyed a nice lay-in with no nightmares, had a nice long relaxing bath and eaten an unhealthy fry up for breakfast.

"Mind if I join you?" He asked. Leaning against the door frame. Gorgeous.

"Sure." I smiled again and shuffled up so he could sit beside me. He did so and leant back into the back of the sofa.

"How are you feeling?" He asked me. I blushed at the thought of him knowing all too well what my 'illness' was.

"Okay, thankyou."

"Good. So what are we watching?" He asked and shuffled closer, placing an arm around my neck and nuzzling me closer to his chest. I didnt hesitate to be closer to him.

"Theres nothing on really." I answered and flicked onto the movie's page on the Sky+ channel guide.

"Project X, lets watch that!" He almost shouted. He looked pleased about it so I put it on and settled into him. We watched movie after movie, occasionally having breaks to talk and enjoy each others company. We had eaten lunch and dinner, each slept for a bit and at 8:30 pm Adam and Luca had been and gone. We settled on another movie and I cuddled into him once again. My tiredess taking over and I lapsed into dream land.

I suddenly woke to a horrible banging sound as Jamie jumped up. I looked at the clock on the wall and noticed it was midnight. The boys wouldnt be home yet and even if they were they would have a key so who could that be? I followed Jamie to the entrance hall and peered through the glass of the double front doors. My heartbeat suddenly quickened.

Stood on the driveway was a tall, dark figure. Much like the one from my nightmares and flashbacks, infact exactly like the one from my real like ordeal. I started having a panic attack. My heart beating in my chest and my whole body shaking, tears streaming down my face but before I could warn Jamie not to open the door, it was too late and the man was inside my home.
