TRAUMA

#7

*Courtney's POV

For the first time, i felt safe. I woke up, opened my eyes with smile on my face. That was my very first time since that night. I didn't have nightmare. When i turned my body to the left,  i could see the sun already got up through the window. "Ash..." I mumbled. I got up and rolled out of my bed. I went to downstairs and found him still sleeping. He was so calm and cute though. I was so lucky to find him. He yawned and opened his eyes. "Hi there.." He greeted me and smiled. He was really handsome. I forgot about the problems in my life for a while.

"Hi..sorry i didn't mean to wake you up." I came over to him and sat on the couch.

"No, it's okay. This is the exact time i woke up every morning."

"Come here." I gave him sign to lay his head on my thighs.

"What is this for?" He questioned me confused.

"I don't know. I just..." I stopped as he waited for the answer. I didn't know what the exact purpose. I just wanted to show him that i loved him.

"Is this uncomfortable? I mean your feeling?"

"No, it is way better than a pillow. I love it."

He answered playfully. I giggled.

"Now i have to go to my apartment first, then i will come back here with my stuff. Do you mind if i stay here?"

"It sounds good. I'm okay with that. Thank you." I felt like I didn't want him to leave me. I wanted him stay with me forever and soend hours with me.

"Lock the door while i go. You call me right away if you are in danger okay. Take your phone everywhere you go." He commanded me. I knew he worried about me. I did too. 'It is okay.' i said to my self.

I walked him out of my house and ran to inside of the house. I locked the doors and windows right away. I was running around my house make sure.

When i headed back to my room then opened my door, suddenly there was someone chokes me and covered my mouth with hands. It was my ex. I knew it was him by the scent. He dragged me and pushed me till i fell on the floor. "What do you want?" I shouted and my tears were rolling to my cheeks then my chin. "Do you think I'm stupid? And do you think that i will get off you since you got your new man, you such a sl*t!"

"Now, i will make sure that you will have my baby."

"No, please don't. Isn't enough for you to make me suffer from the trauma? I had nightmare since that. I.."

He cutted me off. Then picked me up and put me down in my bed. He cuffed my hands and he grabbed panties in my closet then put it in to my mouth.

He spread my leg widely and unzip his jeans. He also took off my panties. He looked like a monster. I couldn't help myself but crying. I was just crying and groaning as i couldn't scream louder.

I wish i could kick him on his b*lls. But he held my legs strongly.

I heard someone called my phone again and again. I wished Asher could come here quickly. I was begging Max to not do this again. But it seemed useless.

I tried to get off the cuffs but the pain made my hands burn. I moved my body as fast i could so he couldn't put his thing to me. But he was so strong. I couldn't move til i lost my energy and my breath was slowing down. I felt my body cold and then warm then cold then warm again. I was about fainting.

*BRAAKK*

The door opened then i saw Asher came then punched Max on his face til he fell. He finished him really bad. "Asher. Stop! You could kill him if you keep beating him. He already lost his conscious. Just call the police."

Asher got up and reached his phone. He was calling the police. He uncuffed my hands and covered me using the blanket. Then everything was black.

"Ash.."

"Courtney, thank God. What are you feeling right now?"

"Where are we?"

"We are in the hospital."

"Where is Max?"

"He is in Jail, i bet."

I sighed. "You are safe now." He hugged me and kissed my forehead.

"I'm sorry. It was my fault. I left you alone." He cried.

"Hey, look i'm okay. It was not your fault. You are my saviour." I hugged him to comfort him.
