    In the middle of the night I woke up and saw the worst thing I could ever think of;

Todd, he found me, he creeped into the room as I cried for help and then he wanted to rape me and I woke up to Caleb shaking me and calling my name

I was sweating all over and I cried as he held me to his chest "what was the dream about?" I shook my head 'cause I wasn't ready to speak about my past.

"It's okay if you don't want to tell me but just please stop crying" I ceased crying and asked him to stay with me because I was still scared that Todd might appear.

He did but when I woke up the next morning he was gone so I got up, brushed my teeth and took a shower.

When I got out of the bathroom I found a note on my bed. It said, 'open your wardrobe' I did and it was filled with different kind of clothes of all designs.

How did I not wake up when they were doing this. They were gorgeous and I had never been given anything so extravagant.

I picked a white off shoulder top with jeans, it fit perfectly. "Just as I guessed" "what?" I replied turning to see Caleb.

"You are the same size as my sister" "oh ok than–" "don't thank me Addison did all the shopping I only payed"

And just as he said that a girl with blonde hair walked in. She had similar face features with him only different hair colour which made a huge difference.

"Hi" she said with a small smile then Caleb spoke "Ari this is Addison my little sister, Addison meet Ari my um well my maid"

I stretched out my hand to shake her but she just ran and hugged me. "It's so nice to meet you, we are going to be best of friends!" She said through her smile.

I wasn't used to such an enthusiastic welcome so I didn't know what to do but I hugged her back.

When she released me I thanked her for the clothes and she said it wasn't a problem

"I have to go but I promise to try and visit as much as I can, I know Caleb is a lot to deal with" I just smiled back and watched him roll his eyes as she left.

It was too late for breakfast so I just made lunch and we ate together then he went to his room and I swept the floor, wiped the chair and table and dusted every corner.

When I was done I decided to check if his room needed cleaning so I followed the path he took. He wasn't inside and the room looked like a tornadoes had passed through.

I started picking the clothes, sorting out the clean ones from the dirty then folding the clean ones into his wardrobe.

While I was getting that done he came out from his bathroom with nothing other than a towel around his waist

"Oh I'm so sorry I didn't know you were..." "You didn't know I was what" he replied moving closer as I moved backwards until I was caged between him and the wardrobe.

He lowered his head so close to me that I could feel his breathing on my neck as his hands trailed down my chest.

Suddenly he stopped and placed his hands on my shoulders "go I'll call you when I'm done to continue" "continue what?"

He looked confused at first then he smirked and shook his head "the clothes, isn't that what you were doing before" "oh right" I blushed and went to my room.

Then I picked my journal and added Addison's name to those I'd like to repay her and added under
'i think I'm going to like it here, I have Addison, the closest thing to a friend but I don't like the way caleb makes me feel'

When he was done he told me I could come and continue. So I did, when I was almost done he called me and to be honest,I love the way he calls my name but that doesn't really matter.

"Yes!" I replied as I went to meet him "what's your number" I don't know if he means my auction number or something else which really confuses me, he started to look confused to before he suddenly seemed to realize something.

"Oh shit I forgot, you don't have a phone do you?" "Oh that's what you meant....no I don't "  "wait so you've never worked for anyone nice enough to get you a phone?"

"I've worked for some nice people ...but yeah they never got me a phone" "okay" "do you need anything?" "Uh not really I need to go out and I wanted to be able to contact you but it's fine I'll be back soon."

"Oh so you don't need me to clean get anything done" "no, make yourself at home. You can watch TV or sleep just don't leave the house, and Incase I'm not back soon go ahead and make dinner,bye"

"Bye" I replied but I'm not sure he even heard before he left.
I turned on the TV and kept changing channels but couldn't find anything interesting so I turned it off.

I was terribly bored,  so I went to my room and decided to draw in my journal.

When I was done I was quite impressed. It was a broken with holes in it then I drew arrows, knives and a bunch of sharp objects around it. It was my first drawing ever and I think it's pretty nice.

I checked the time, it was almost 4, Caleb wasn't back so I might as well start dinner.

I was done about an hour later and he still wasn't back so I started eating then he came in, it was obvious that he was just coming back from the gym.

His sport shirt was drenched with sweat and his hair was sticking to his forehead. He looked hot but I pretended not to notice him as he walked in.

He walked towards me and asked if I wasn't going to welcome him. "Welcome sir" I said quickly "don't call me sir, ever again" he handed me a bag and told me it was mine and he wanted to freshen up before he eats.

Immediately he left I excitedly opened the bag, it was an iPhone and a box of chocolate. I smiled and dropped them on my bed.

Like seriously? To be honest I half expected the iPhone but a box of chocolate? I laughed as I opened it.

"What's so funny?" I looked up and saw him standing by my door in a nice black t-shirt and jeans, "thank you for the phone" I ignored the question.

"Your welcome" "but?" "But what?" "Why did you get me chocolate" "oh um well my sister loves it and I saw a shop selling it on my way and thought, well why not?"

"Ok thanks "your welcome again" and he left I was kind of glad he did, it was getting kind of awkward.

When I opened the phone I found that he had done most of the settings for me and had saved two numbers on it, one saved under his name and the other Addison.

Where in the world did he get the money to buy all these stuff? Maybe I should ask him.

I went to the living room and sat across him, he was watching some sort of war movie but I knew his attention was divided since when I walked in.

"Can I ask you something?" He picked the remote and reduced it to almost 0 then turned to me, "yeah" "what exactly do you do?" "You mean for a living"

"Yeah" "business" "oh" "yeah I handle our family business from here while my dad does it from Boston and Oklahoma" "so you have 3 ports" "yeah, I used to stay in Boston because it's easier for my dad to travel between Texas and Oklahoma but circumstances caused the switch"

"May I ask what?" "Sorry but no I don't like to talk about it" "oh ok" "why did you ask" "I was wandering where you got the money to buy all those stuff"

He smiled making him look more handsome"well I guess I'm quite comfortable, I've had a hand in this business since I was 16 and my dad let's me keep the money I get from my own side and I don't really need much so it just keeps accumulating which is why Addison has turned me into a bank."

We both started laughing at that "is that all you want to know?" "Yeah" "okay good night" I got up and went inside to change to my pajamas then flipped through the apps and found much interest in TikTok untill I fell asleep.
