Teach Me How To Be Yours

Keep you Safe**

Zander's POV

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" I asked as I got out of bed and pulled on some sweatpants.

Margo called me, sounding scared out of her mind.

"Ye- yeah, i'm o-okay. Can you please just come over?" She asked, voice shaky.

I looked at the clock. 2:37AM

Uh, yeah okay. I'll be right over!" I said as I slipped some shoes, grabbed my keys and walked out the door.

As I pulled into the driveway I got out of the car and jogged up to the front door. Before the second knock the door flew open and Margo fell into me.

All I could do was wrap my arms around her small frame and hug her back.

"It's okay Margo. Please just calm down." I said softly as I rubbed her back and held her as close as I could.

After a few minutes,Margo stopped shaking.

"Let's go inside." She said as she pulled me inside the house and shut the door.

As she pulled me towards her room I could still feel her still shaking a bit.We got in the room and she shut the door and then started to pace the room. I sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her.

"Why'd you call? What happened?" I asked gently

She stopped pacing towards the middle of her room and looked up from the floor. She mumbled something.

"Talk to me." I said as I met her eyes and saw tears forming, she looked to her feet.

"I had a bad dream." She whispered.

Margo's POV

"A dream? That's what you called me in the middle of the night for.... A DREAM? I SPED OVER HERE FOR A DREAM!? WH-" Zander raised his voice but I stopped him.

"This wasn't JUST ANOTHER DREAM! This is the same dream I've had for almost 2 years now, It just keeps replaying. It keeps reminding me of what he did and what happened that day." I told him as I started pacing back and forth across my room again.

"W-what happened and who is he? Margo you can tell me, I'll help you." he said as pulled me to stand in between his legs as I passed him. I took a deep breath.

"I don't know if you can help me, we've done literally everything we could up to this point." I took another deep breath.

"So in the dream... I saw something I never wanted to deal with again, but I keep experiencing it. I saw the reason I broke up with my ex and why I had to move here..I walked into his sister's house. We had been friends since childhood so I had a key to her place. I opened the door quietly to surprise him since it was his birthday and I had decided to leave school early since he dropped out. But when I walked in all I saw was him yelling at this guy and he was saying such crazy things about drugs and prostitutes and coming after the guys family and then I saw him pull out a pistol and he shot the guy in the head. I just remember standing there as everything fell out of my hands. He made me come inside and sit on the couch, I had to watch as this guy bled to death. It was like he was getting off on it or something because he kept trying to kiss me and touch all over my body. I hated every moment of it but I was scared that if I didn't play along I would be next." I paused trying to hold back tears, I felt Zander rub his hands up and down my bare legs softly.

"I asked him for some water or something and when he got up I looked for something to fight back with and when he came back I smashed a vase on his head so I could get out.He fell on the ground for a second and I ran. I ran as fast as I could just to get away from him and he started yelling after me as he chased me. I forgot he had a gun and he shot at me before hitting me in the shoulder, but I kept running and all I heard was him yelling and then I tripped over my own feet as I tried to look behind me and see where he was and I fell on my back and once he caught up to me the last thing I remember was him leaning in to kiss my forehead before he shot me in the stomach and then the dream ended and I called you. So now here we are, cause my brain wont let me forget so please don't be mad." I finished as I realized tears had been falling this whole time.
