Ebony's pov

After the therapist left sleep quickly found me. But with sleep came horrible nightmares that scare me to death.
(Nightmare)
I was sitting in the room tied to a chair. I didn't know how I got here but I knew that I was in trouble. A tall man walks through the door and slowly creeps towards me. A whimper escapes my lips as he kneels in front of me and brushes a hand across my cheek. I'm only six years old and I want my mommy and daddy. I don't want to be with the scary man. I want to go home. The man continues to stroke my cheek and hair. He stares deeply into my ocean blue eyes with flecks of gold with his dark brown almost black eyes. My eyes squeeze shut because I'm so scared. The stranger doesn't like that so he grabs my long black hair and yanks it hard. I yelp in pain as tears fall from my eyes. The man comes in closer and says something that I will never forget. "I'm your new Daddy, don't ever forget that. Your old family didn't want you, so I took you."
(End nightmare)

Ian's pov

I decide that since I saved her and I waited forever to talk to the stupid cops, that I might as well meet her.

I'm walking to her room when I suddenly hear a gut-wrenching scream. I run to the room to see the girl crying in her sleep. I figure I should wake her up but as soon as I move to do so, her eyes fly open. She stares at me with eyes filled with fear.

Ebony's pov

A strange man is in my room just staring at me. What should I do. Is he a friend of Daddy's here to take me back? Should I scream. I gather air into my lungs but before I can scream, his voice fills the air.
"Please don't scream, I'm not here to hurt you. I'm the one that found you and brought you to the hospital. I just wanted to see if you were okay."
I stare at him for a couple of seconds before replying. "I'm okay. Thank you for saving me."
"My name is Ian, what about you," he questions.
"Ebony," I say shyly.
He doesn't get a chance to say anything else before the doctor comes in and tells him that only family is allowed to visit. He strides out the door without a second glance. What a strange boy.
As soon as I think that my breath freezes. He was a boy. I talked to a boy who wasn't Daddy's friend. I've done that multiple times now. I'm in so much trouble when Daddy finds me. I shouldn't of run but I was in so much pain and I was so scared. I just wanted out. I regret that now. I should have stayed at home. I'm going to die when I get found. Maybe it's for the better though.
