"Thanks for letting me stay Alex."  I said as we sat on his bed.

"Anytime, Short-stop." He smiled.

"Hey! Nobody calls me that anymore!" I pouted.

"So, what? I'm a nobody now?" He said as he walked over to his closet, pulling out a T-shirt and some shorts. He handed them to me. "Here. I don't think it would be very comfortable sleeping in that." He gestured to my black skinny jeans and denim top.

Wait....Was he just checking me out?

I smiled. "Yeah, thanks." I took the clothes out of his hands.

"Bathroom's that way." He pointed.

"Yeah, yeah. I know." I rolled my eyes as I went in there. After I put on his clothes, my gaze fell on my wrists.

I pushed aside the bracelets to reveal the scars. I felt a pang in my heart.

-Just do it. It would be so easy.

A voice in my head spoke.

NO.

I shook my head to try and clear it from that voice. I walked out of the bathroom and back into Alex's bedroom. Alex was sitting on his bed, shirtless. It took all my willpower not to gawk at him.

"So, what do you want to do?" I asked, looking anywhere but him.

"Um. Want to watch a movie?" He suggested. I smiled and nodded. I jumped next to him on the bed.

"Goodnight Alex." I mumbled as I pulled the covers around me. Alex insisted I took the bed. He said he was fine on the floor.

"Night, Jordan."

~~~~

"Who do you think you are?!" My father shouted.

I couldn't say anything because I was crying.

"ANSWER ME!" He yelled as his hand flew across my face.

I screamed in pain.

"SHUT UP!" He hit me again.

"Please stop. Leave me alone!" I said before he pulled out the gun.

"This is all because of you!" He said before pointing the gun at me.

"NO!" I shouted. I shot up.

It was just a nightmare.

"Huh?! Jordan! Are you okay?" Alex said in a groggy morning voice.

"Y-yeah. It was just a bad dream" But it really happened. I added in my head.

"It's okay. Just go back to sleep.'' He yawned.

I nodded and lied back down.

Just before I drifted off, I felt Alex crawl into the bed and wrap his arms around me. I smiled to myself as he nuzzled his head into my neck.

"I'll keep you safe." His words echoed as I fell asleep.
