Pose

[Chapter 13]

I wake up as I sit up stretching and yawning, as I look around and notice Zaiden is gone. Was it all just a dream..? I get up and get dressed before heading downstairs for breakfast. On my Way over someone grabs me from behind pulling me into a hug with their arms around my waist and I feel kisses on my neck. 'Morning sleepy head.' Zaiden comments and I sigh with relief. Guess it wasn't a dream then. I turn and hug him back as I kiss him. 'Morning to you too.' Malikai comes running up hugging me before continuing on his run downstairs and he jumps on the staircase railings sliding down. I look at Zaiden who gives me a 'I'm warning you.' Look before I run off and jump on the staircase railing and Slide down. As I land I notice everyone is missing from the table. Usually they'd be here by now.. 'Where is everyone?' Zaiden comes jogging downstairs before wrapping an arm around me kissing my cheek and heading to the door. 'They all set up plans for today since we're not doing anything.' 'Oh, That explains it I guess.' 'So, Have you considered the Music therapy?' 'Yeah.. I dunno.. It's not really my style..' 'Alright. We'll find something you might like.. Also.. I uh.. I'm kinda being forced to go to this modeling thing, Not to model it's like an interview and apparently I can't bring you along and Andrea is on a date with the girls so..' 'It's okay, I kinda like being alone. Go ahead, I'll be right here when you get back. 'Gods I love you.' Zaiden walks Over kissing me again before he leaves with Malikai and I stare at the door before looking around. What am I supposed to do..? I have no money to my name and I just kinda exist here. Minx comes running over with Nora not far behind chasing her. 'Oi! Careful you two!' I head back upstairs to my room and grab my phone when I notice a text from an unknown number from yesterday. I check the message and Almost immediately lower my ears. "Hey Ash, Did you miss me? It's Nate by the way, just in case you were curious. I hope you don't mind but.. I found a way to keep everyone busy tomorrow. Except you of course.. I have a better Idea for you." No no no... What the hell does he mean by that..?? He won't be able to get in right..?? There's way too much security in this place.. Yeah yeah.. I'm safe.. right..?? "Tomorrow meet me at the beach, alone. And don't try anything or.. I'll have my buddy deal with Zaiden. Don't try to ditch either." I sit frozen for a moment I don't know what to say... what to feel... I don't know what to do... What do I do!? I can't put Zaiden in risk... I go over to my closet grabbing a gun and stuffing in in my back pocket and grab a jacket to cover it. Then I head out the door and start walking over to the beach. As I'm walking I turn my location on and send Zaiden my location for in case..

I get to the beach and look around before I feel someone behind me pressing something against my back and holding a hand on my shoulder. 'You actually came.. so you do feel something for that Zaiden guy... and here I thought I was your special one.. Don't you love me Ash..?' 'No I fucking don't you psycho! You're a nut job!' Nate covers my mouth and pulls me into a hug from behind to hold me still. 'C'mon.. Don't yell people will stare.. And Zaiden..' i Pull my ears back as he forcefully moves me over to his car shoving me in and locking the doors before he starts driving off somewhere. 'I thought Zaiden put you in the hospital!' 'He did..' Nate pulls up his shirt to reveal a massive scar on his side. 'I'm still healing..' 'What do you want from me!?' I growl before being shut up by Nate. 'I want..' he stops laughing like a crazy person. 'I'm glad you asked. I want you Ash.. And I want you to be the father of our kids. You can get pregnant right?' I start backing up as much as possible in the back before trying to open the door to no avail.. 'See, I know you're smart... If I had thrown you in the trunk you would have busted a light out. If I had tied you up people around me will get suspicious, and if I just locked the doors..' Nate suddenly holds up a screw driver. 'I just adjusted the locks to Child lock..' I stare out the window curling my tail around me. Please let Zaiden find me before this psycho can do anything harmful to me... Please... 'Come on now.. don't be so anxious.. I'll make it quick..' I growl at him and as we reach a small house he gets out and drags me along with him and inside the house as he drags me down to a basement. He starts searching my pockets before grabbing my phone and gun. 'I-!' 'Ah! No. I'm sorry my love.. But you're not going to be needing these...' Nate breaks the phone and stuffs the gun into his pocket before shoving me down onto the floor and wrapping chains around my arms. I quickly look to the side when I hear clapping. 'Well done.. You actually got him.' My father stands next to Nate patting his shoulder. 'Have fun..' He turns and walks off before Nate comes over to me pinning me back to the floor and putting his hand up my shirt, before leaning down and kissing me. I try getting him off but it doesn't work.. 'Let go!! Get off of me!!' I feel myself starting to cry and break down again as he grabs my face forcing me to look at him as he starts moving his hands down further and further. I finally manage to kick him off before he can do anything and I start backing away but I'm stopped by the chains. I try tugging at them but they're too tight and Nate pins me again. 'Just stop fighting and it'll be-' I kick him again making him flinch back. 'Don't fucking touch me!' I hear Nate laugh and it sends a chill down my spine. He comes over again this time pinning me to a wall and pressing my feet down so I can't kick him and he leans in to kiss me again before he jumps. 'Nate! Get your ass up here!' 'The fuck?? Can't you see I'm busy!?' 'Nate! Unless you want to get caught get up here so we can fucking hide the room! The cops are outside!' 'What!? Why??' 'Apparently someone saw you taking Ash or something!' 'Shit..' Nate gets up before leaving with my dad and they shut the door. I immediately go to free my hands from the chains but I can't get them off. I look around for something before Deciding it's useless since I wouldn't be strong enough to break it anyway.. I'm stuck here.. I inspect the chains closer to the wall and it's bolted into the walls by a massive pin. Great.. I start tugging at the chains again trying to get out but it doesn't work. I and stare at it defeated.. I suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder causing me to jump before I notice Zaiden who crouches down beside me breaking the chains with ease and picking me up. 'You okay Angel..?' He stares with a worried look and I nod leaning my head down onto his shoulder. 'It's okay.. I'll get you out of here.. Then I'll deal with those pricks!' Zaiden cusses before I look up and notice we're no longer in the basement but in a room full of people at loud music as Zaiden puts me down on a couch beside Clide and Noah. 'Zaiden-!' 'I can't explain right now just fucking watch ash! Don't fucking leave him you got it??' Zaiden disappears again before Clide looks over at me worried. 'The fuck happened??' 'Nate.. And my father.. I shouldn't have told him..' 'Shouldn't have told who? Told who what?' 'I told Nate about my father.. They decided to work together to try and make my life hell...' I find myself rubbing my eyes as my tears run down my Face and Clide leans over hugging me. Soon Noah joins in and I start to feel better. 'Let's get you home..' Clide insists as he takes my hand leading me to his car with Noah close by. We get in and I sit in the back while we drive back home and I just stay quiet the entire time. When we finally get home I sit on the couch watching Princess and the frog with Malikai who was home with Lizzy Andrea and Freya. Eventually Malikai falls asleep on my lap I guess I did too after everything that happened. 

When I wake up, It's already dark out and I notice I'm laying down. I sit up and look over to the other couch and notice Zaiden holding Malikai asleep again. I smile before Getting up and walking over kissing his head before I head up stairs and wander around before stumbling across the music room. I look around at the instruments. "Have you tried music therapy?" Zaiden's words echo in my head and I put a hand behind my head walking over to the guitar and starting to try and figure out a rhythm. I must've been working on it for a while because I finally finished it and grabbed a guitar playing the song on the loop pad and I play the main guitar singing a few made up lyrics. [See the above vid :) ] Near the end I start to get into my feels making me nearly cry before I look over to see Zaiden leaning on the door frame looking red in the face with a huge smile on his face. 'I see you took my advice.' 'I-.. How long.. have you been standing there..?' 'I heard everything.. You're really good.' 'Thanks..' I find myself looking down at the floor before Zaiden walks over and takes my hands staring at the bruising from my tugging at the chains earlier. He moves his hands up to my face staring at me before he leans in kissing me and I pull him into a hug kissing him back as we're stood there just hugging each other in silence. I move my hands up a bit to hold him tighter and a pair of black wings suddenly appear as I jump back and Zaiden starts to laugh. 'What the fuck!? You have wings!?' 'Yeah, I have wings. I'm uh.. Like a fallen angel..' 'You're... but then.. Why are your wings black..?' 'Like I said.. Fallen Angel..' I stare at them for a moment and realize I probably look terrified because Zaiden hides his wings again looking nervous so I walk back over. 'Sorry.. I didn't mean to scare you.. You kinda touched my sensitive spot.' I move my hands up again making the wings appear again and Zaiden hugs me tighter folding his wings around me. We eventually head back to his room, since he already put Malikai back in his bed and Zaiden cuddles me again still wrapping one wing around me with his arm. He starts kissing my neck making me pull my ears back, but I don't.. hate it.. It doesn't scare me.. Zaiden lays back down again just holding me and I pass out shortly after. I feel safe around him.. I think I finally made up my mind. I finally have the answer I've been looking for all along..
