*Stefinis P.O.V*

"How are you going," I hear Jarred say, but I ignore him for some reason, I can't even believe what happened today and I can't blame Jarred and I can't block him out, considering he is giving me a place to live for a few weeks, but all I need is sleep,
"I'm so sorry but I'm really tired, could I please crash on the couch for the night, then I'll talk in the morning, I just need to take some time and think about what happened today," I say in the most apologetic way possible,
"Yeah sure no problem I have to go and get some blankets for you, if you need anything don't be afraid to say, and in the morning we will talk about it, and I'll set up one of the other rooms and you can stay in there," he says,
"Thanks so much, for letting me stay here," I say,
"You can stay here as long as you want, I don't mind," he says walking of,

I pull out my phone and text mum,

Hey mum I'm staying at my new friends house and I might just stay here for a few weeks, but I'll be coming to get a few things tomorrow, goodnight mum,
Love Stefie, xoxo

Yeah no problem just want you to keep in touch with me and I love you so much,
Mum, xoxoxo,

I smile at the text and put my phone down just as Jarred walks back into the room,
"Stand up for a few seconds," he says, and I stand up and give him a hand unfolding the Sofa bed,
"Thanks Jay for everything, really thanks," I say giving him a hug,
"I'm fine with you staying here," he says, "if you need me I'm going to bed myself," he says kissing me gently on the forehead, "sleep tight princess," he says walking of.
I get myself sorted and get tucked into a cocoon, and try to get my mind around the distorted memories of the day, and sort the horrible parts of the day and try to push them to the back of my mind. Then I slowly drift off to sleep.

* I'm running out of breath, tripping and stumbling over who knows what, I turn a corner and get stuck in a maze, and my pursuer is on my tail, and I have no idea what to do, so I have to go back the way I came, and I see a slight shadow, and I know it's all over, my legs have given way, and I was on my knees crying, my head to my knees, my heart racing so fast that I thought it was going to explode out of my chest, I look up and see my pursuer in front of me and I could smell the scent of alcohol and he's holding a....

"Ahhhh," I scream with tears rolling down my face, sweat beads on my forehead, I wipe of the tears and the sweat of with my shirt, I check the time,
"12:47am," I say with a sigh,
I get up and walk around the room unsure what to do, but I knew I didn't want to go back to sleep and find out what happens with the dream, so I go to Jarreds room and knock, I don't get a response, so I open the door, and walk over to Jarred, and he is sound asleep, I don't want to disturb him but I can't go back to sleep without some form of comfort, I slightly shake him and he wakes up immediately,
"What's up," he says delicately,
"I'm sorry, I had a nightmare, and I can't go back to sleep," I say apologetically, "can I sleep in here with you?" I ask,
"Yeah sure," he says and shoves himself over,
"Thanks heaps babe," I say about to drifting off to sleep,
"Goodnight sweetheart," he says also drifting off to sleep.
