The wildflower Lilac

Lilacs pov:

I wake up and see Ethan and Sam holding me down with terrified faces on each of them. I could feel the waves of tears pouring down my face, I could feel my body shaking with intense fear- no petrified fear. I could hardly breath. I look around to see I'm on my couch with the two most important people in my life.

"Bug! You are okay, you are safe, me and Sam are here okay, neonato (baby) you are going to be ok I promise" Ethan says in such a soothing and calming voice to mask his fear.

I haven't had a nightmare in front of them before. Ethan has run into my room from me screaming in fear in my sleep, but I was always awake before he got to my room. I honestly haven't had a nightmare about mom in weeks, it was always about the accident- well that's what I told the boys.

Ethan pulls me onto his lap and holds me like a baby and I just bury my head into his neck and sob. I was mortified and slightly embarrassed to have them seen me have a nightmare like that.  Specially to have Sam see that. Nuh uh

Ethan slowly subs my back and mumbles sweet nothings into my ear while Sam plays with my hair and holds my hand and rubs his thumb on the back of my hand. That always clamed me down as a kid. Sam is a year and 4 days older than me, and he will never let me live it down. He used to call me kid when we were little but then he gave me a new nickname loloma (love in Fijian) he won't tell me what it means or what language, but it always clams me down and he calls me it usually when I'm upset. So, he will hold my hand and rub his thumb on the back of my hand and wispier sweet nothings in my ear.

I got so lost in thought that I slowly fell asleep being held by my protectors. The two most important people in the world to me 

Time skip to the next morning

I slowly wake up, but I don't want to wake up. I don't want to be anxious all day. I don't want to be afraid. I don't want to be sad. I want to be normal. I want something to be okay agian. I want some of my old fake perfect life back. I can't do this anymore. I can't do being afarid. I hate feeling weak and powerless against my own life. I can hardly breath just thinking about leaving this house. 

So of course me being me I have the best idea imaginable. I will not be afraid or scared anymore. So fuck taking baby steps like Ethan tells me to do. I am going to drive my happy ass down to the underground fighting ring and fight. Now I know this sounds crazy but just think about it okay, if you walk into a pool it takes so long to adjust to the tempter but if you jump right in your fine after a couple seconds. And that's my plan. To be totally fine by tomorrow morning. Now the hard part if trying to get past Ethan and Sam. Sam practically lives at our house. Well he practically lives in my brothers room. See out house if a trailer. Elise (mom) couldn't afford anything else so we just live her. I just need to dives a master plan before 6 tonight. 

I slowly open my eyes to see Sam's arms wrapped around me like his life depended on it. I try to wiggle my way out of his grip but it's no use 

"loloma go back to sleep, you are warm so stop moving" Sam says in his very tired and rough morning voice

As I hear him say it my heart rate picks up. This has never happened to me, at least not around Sam. 

I turn over and see his messy bed hair. His brown hair even in the morning His sharp jawline I swear could cut dimands. His muscles you could see even as he was sleeping. They weren't huge but they were there. And-

"You can stop eye raping me now" Sam says with his eyes slightly opening them to revel his amber brown eyes

"I am not eye raping you Sammy! I am observing my surroundings and figuring out the best way to escape your death grip on me" I say lying through my teeth. 

"mhm sure li (AN: it's pronounced lie- but spelt li because of her name Lilac) " Sam says pulling my closer to him 

I roll my eyes and cuddle into his warm body. I wrap my hands behind his neck and start to play with his hair. Sam slightly chuckles as he feels me play with his hair. At this point Sam's eyes are shut again. I slowly close my eyes continuing to play with his hair. 

"loloma you have no idea what you are doing to me right now" he whispers softly in my ear 

I feel shivers go down my spine. I slowly open my eyes to be met with Sam's soft amber brown eyes. He looks at me like I am the only person in the world, and I blush slightly causing Sam to chuckle and pull me into his grasp closer if that was even possible. I laugh a little and start to scratch his back. Sam plays with my hair. We lay there for which seems like minutes when we hear Ethans grumpy morning voice. I push away from Sam and roll over to the other side of the bed and grab my phone and pretend to be doing something else. Sam laughs sitting up trying to fix his hair when a grumpy Ethan walks into my room and plops onto my bed 

"Why good morning to you too bubba" i giggle looking at a zombie looking Ethan 

"I had the worst sleep of my life- and to top it off I woke up 5 MINUTES BEFORE MY ALARM" Ethan roars causing me and Sam to die out laughing hysterically 

"It's not funny" Ethan growls in frustration throwing his hands up in defeat

After that the boys went to get ready for the day and do did I. I went and toke a shoer and used my honey scented body wash. I got out and put on some grey Nike pros , my Calvin Klein bra and undies set and one of Sam's T-shirts. I brush my long brown hair and throw it up into a messy bun and throw on some mascara and brush my teeth. I start to walk to the kitchen when I see the two men from the store yesterday talking to Ethan and Sam. I start to freak out. I couldn't hear what they were saying. I'm guessing Sam saw me and was talking because his mouth was moving and he was walking towards me and then both of the men turn and look at me and as soon as we made eye contact I ran. 

I ran as fast as I could out of the house. I sprinted down the road as fast as my legs would take me. I didn't look behind me I just kept running 

"Lilac! Stop! Let me explain" Sam yells chasing after me 

He started to catch up fast, I look behind me to see him hardly 10 feet behind me. So I ran into the woods. I jumped over logs and I could feel the bottom of my feet being painfully stabbed into the sticks and rocks that were on the ground. I could hear Ethan and Sam screaming my name running after me. I quickly look behind me and next thing I know. 

BAM

I tripped and bashed my body into a tree. I fell and started rolling down a hill. I screamed in pain while feeling the sticks and rocks ripping apart my skin. Then just as I reached the bottom of the hill everything went black

AN: I'm sorry for such a short chapter. I'm just thinking of how I want the plot to fully work for the story. Don't worry the next chapter will be way better then this one hopefully and Lilac just might meet some special people! 

Also just to clear things up Sam can speak a bunch of different languages, all the charter can since they work and do things in the underground. Sam on the other hand is the only one who knows fijian so he uses that so no one can understand what he is saying or calling people. He also won't tell anyone what language he is speaking due to the fact that he doesn't wank anyone to know what he is saying. 

Let me know if you want me to add what language they are using with the translation of the words if that will help anyone.
