"Yeah, do you mind if I stay here tonight?" "You know you're always welcome here, come on in." Ashton replied moving out of the doorway so Katie could enter.
Katie walked up the couple of stairs that led to the kitchen, she took a quick glance around and her shoulders relaxed from the sense of security that she felt in this house.
"Are you thirsty?" Do you need anything?" Ashton asked as he grabbed himself a pop out of the fridge. "No, I think I'm just going to go to sleep."
"Alright, you take my bed and I'll take the couch."
"Alright, see you in morning Ash." Katie said making her way up the stairs.
On her way to Ashtons' bedroom Katie stopped in the bathroom to take a look at her face. There was a small bruise forming under her left eye and she had a busted lip.
"I'm never going back there again," she mumbled to herself.
She walked into Ashtons' bedroom and climbed into his bed to try to get some sleep. Moments later Ashton walked into his room wearing a pair of basketball shorts and a wife beater.
"Hey, what happened to your couch." Katie asked Ashton as he sat down on the bed.
"Shit, I got rid of it because i got a better one on the way."
"Well you take that side and I'll take this side." Katie said scooting over on the bed to make room for Ashton. Climbing into the bed Ashton looked over at her and sighed "You know you have to tell someone about this right?" This has to stop, what if she really hurts you the next time? "But then where would I live? Who would even believe a word that I say. It would be her word against mine."
"You can live here if you want, I'll take the couch for a while."
"Nah, I'll take the couch there is no telling you've had in this bed. I'm going to need a long shower in the morning just to wash off whatever could be in here."
"I always changed my sheets after ever girl, so shut up."
"I hope so, anyway goodnight." Katie said tuning on her side.
"Yeah, goodnight." Ashton said turning in the opposite direction.
In the middle of the night Katie started to scream at the top of her lungs. Ashton jumped up and lightly shook her shoulder to get her to wake up.
"Katie! Wake up! You're fine look!" Ashton kept repeating over and over trying to get her wake up.
After about ten minutes of shaking her shoulder, Katie finally opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings trying to clear the fog from her head. "Sorry, another bad dream." Katie said a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry about it, just try to get some sleep." Ashton replied wiping his eyes.
Katie laid back down and went to sleep once more. Ashton looked at her for a while and then turned over and went back to sleep. Sunrays came through the curtains and directly into Katie's face.
