//He's so cute it's almost frustrating\\

Avery

"Get in here girl!" He yelled.

I slowly walked into the kitchen. He was standing there, spoon in hand and a scowl on his face.

"I told you to clean the kitchen."

"I..I did." I stutter.

"Then what's this?"

He points to a grease spot on the counter. It was small, barely even noticeable.

"Get the rag."

I ran to the sink and grabbed a rag. I wet it and then wiped the spot up. I rinsed out the rag and then put it back.

"Now, you know what has to happen now." He said.

Tears formed in my eyes as I nodded my head. I knew what was coming.

He grabbed me the arm and then pushed me against the counter. I squinted my eyes just as he raised the spoon.

My eyes snapped open and I was breathing hard. I sat up in bed and looked over at the clock. It was only 4 am. I noticed that I was sweating and I got up and changed into shorts and t shirt.

I got back in bed and looked at my phone. I had a message from Michael, so I read it.

Mikey😜: Hey! Idk what time it is there, so just text me when you get this

Since I was now wide awake, I decided to text him. They were on a little break now, so he was home in Sydney.

Me: Hey! What's up?

Within just a few minutes he had replied.

Mikey😜: OMG! Did I wake you up?

Me: LOL no you didn't! I had a nightmare.

Mikey😜: aww I'm sorry:/ are you okay?

Me: yeah, I'll be fine. Happens all the time.
Mikey😜: Really? You never told me you had them often...

Okay, so there was a lot I hadn't told him. Like how my Mom left me and my paternal Father and when that happened he went complete psycho and started beating the crap out of me, and how I had been taken from him when I was ten and sent to a foster home, where I was eventually adopted. And now my past haunted me and there was no way I could escape it.

Yeah, he literally knew none of that. I just hadn't had a chance to really tell him yet. There was only so much you could say over texting and snap chatting.

Me: It's nothing. I'm all good :)

Mikey😜: okay, if you're sure.

Me: yeah, I'm sure.

Mikey😜: what was the nightmare about? Sometimes talking about it can help.

Me: I don't want to talk about it.

Suddenly he called me. It took me so off guard that I dropped my phone. I bent over and picked it up. I answered it and then put it up to my ear, my hand was shaking. We had never talked on the phone before.

"Hello?" I said.

"What's going on?" He said.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't pull that trick. You can tell me anything."

"I know, but this, this is different." I said.

"How? How is it different?"

"It's hard to explain over the phone."

"Then I'll just come there."

"What? No, Michael you don't have to do that." I said.

"Why not? I've got a few weeks free. I think it'd be fun to come visit again."

"Don't you have song writing to do?" I asked.

"I can come visit you for a week and then write. The boys won't care."

"Are you sure?"

"Avery, I'm sure. Do you not want me to come?"

Okay, so it wasn't that I didn't want him to come, because I really wanted him to come, but I just didn't know how my parents would react. I mean I hadn't exactly told them how close we were. They knew we talked some but they didn't realize that we had become best friends.

"Yeah I do, it's just..."

"Just what?" He asked.

"I haven't exactly told my parents about how close we've gotten."

"Oh..do they not like me or something?" He asked.

"No, it's not that, it's just that, they're really protective of me."

"Well, if you don't want me to come, I understand."

He sounded so disappointed and honestly, I was too. It would be so fun to have him come and hang out.

"You know what." I said.

"What?"

"You can come. I'll just break it to my parents. I'm sure they'll be fine with it, I mean they know we've been talking anyway. I'll just tell them you're coming to visit."

"Okay, are you sure? I don't want to get you in trouble."

"You won't be, don't worry."

"Okay then. I'll book my flight now. Gosh I can't wait." He said.

"Neither can I."

Now just to figure out how to break it to my parents. Hopefully they would take it well..hopefully.
