Bee's POV
We got all of our furniture a few days ago so we both had our own beds now. But every night I woke up from the same nightmare just getting further and further into it. The thing is it's not really a nightmare, it's my past.

-~:~-

I go into my bed and drift off to sleep. I wake up at 3:00am from the nightmare again. I try to go back to sleep but I can't. I walk over to Mitchell's room and get into his bed. I feel his arms wrap around me.

"I'm sorry I keep doing this." I say. "It's just the same nightmare every night."
"It's fine Bee. How about we talk about it in the morning?" He says sleepily.
"Goodnight Mitchell." I say.
"Goodnight Bee." He replies.

-~:~-

I walk out to the kitchen and see Mitchell making food.

"Goodmorning." I say.
"Goodmorning." He replies.

I take some food and we both eat.

"Do you want to talk about you're nightmare now?" He asks.
"Okay." I reply.

We sit down on the couch and I start.

"Well, it's not really a nightmare. It's my past. Something that happened to me when I worked at the bar that I just can't get out of my mind..." I say.
"What happened?" Mitchell asked. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to." He adds.
"I was r-raped." I force out holding back tears.

Mitchell turns and hugs me as my tears start to fall. He doesn't talk, he just comforts me.

"Bee. I have a question." He says.
"What's that?" I reply.
"Why don't you want anybody knowing your name?" He asks.
"Well I don't like my name." I say.
"But why do you hate your name? You can't just not want people to know your name." He says.
"I don't like the things that happened in my past with my name, and I don't trust people very easily. The only people I trust are my family. I trust you too, it might just take a while before you get to know my name. But don't worry, I will tell you one day." I say.
"I'll wait as long as I need to." He says. "I don't care about a name, just the person that owns it."
