Vodka Kisses

0605- She's No Angel

When I wake up my arms are still tight around Aria who's asleep beside me in Logan's bed.

It's the best I've slept without sleeping medication in a long time.

No nightmares, no nothing.

Aria slowly wakes up and looks over to me and laughs as she pulls her arms away from me.

I sit up in Logan's bed and pull my knees to my chest, that's when I see him.

Logan's asleep on the floor of the bed.

I crawl to the foot of the bed and start shaking him.

"I'm awake." His eyes shoot open and he sits up so fast I begin to question if he has magic powers.

"Why are you asleep on the floor?" I ask and let out a soft laugh.

"Because you two are in my bed and I didn't want to be far away in case you woke up." He admits.

I gesture for him to get on the bed which he does.

Logan pushes me into the middle of the bed and falls asleep behind me with his arm around my waist.

"I think you two are really sweet." She admits and I smile at that. I think that's the first time she's ever said something like that about us.

"Really?" I question, my eyes lighting up.

"Absolutely. I've never doubted his love for you." She says and I turn to look back at Logan who's sleeping peacefully.

"I'm sorry about Andrew." I tell her and she just gives me a small smile.

She leaves us after that to go and get ready to head to Hollis with her dad.

I turn in Logan's arms so I'm facing him.

I press a light kiss to his lips and throw my arms tightly around him.

"I love you too." He mutters against my neck.

After my god awful therapy appointment, it wasn't awful but I just didn't really want to talk about what happened.

It was easier to tell someone who wasn't my dad or boyfriend.

After therapy, Logan takes me with him to work.

I sit in Logan's office, it's a lot smaller than my dad's but he does still have an office.

I sit in his desk chair and try to do my work whilst also spinning around. Spinning in a desk chair always makes me feel better.

"How was it?" My dad says making me stop spinning in my chair and look up at him.

"I don't know, it was good I guess to say some of what had happened out loud to someone who doesn't coddle me." I put my note book and pencil down.

"How are you feeling?" He asks and I start spinning in my chair again, feeling uncomfortable in this conversation.

"The same, it's out there, I've said it, I've admitted it all to myself. But he's still out there and I'm still just here left to deal with what he did to me."

My dad stood my chair from spinning and I look up at him.

"You're strong Pip, so strong. I think you underestimate yourself." He tells me. "I think the more you talk and acknowledge what happened it will be easier to deal with. You don't just have to talk to me your therapist or your friends, you talk to anyone you want." He says and I nod.

"Logan's in a meeting and I was wondering if you wanted to go the sandwich place down the street?" He asks and I nod.

I stand out of my chair and head to the sandwich place down the street with my dad. We had a nice time and we made a sandwich for Logan to take back to him.
