Is There Hope

Chapter 13 Ash's Smooth Move

"Hailee, help us," said my mother as I lay under the couch.
"Please, Hail, we need you!" Pleaded my father.
"Don't just hide like a coward!" Yelled my mother.
This has to be a bad dream because they never said these things! But they should have its all my fault they're dead! I deserve these bad dreams!
"Hailee help!" They both yelled at the top of their lungs.
KNOCK KNOCK! KNOCK KNOCK!
I woke in a cold sweat. I calmed myself, then I opened my door.
"Hailee, are you okay?" Asked Shane.
Every one was there looking at me worryingly.
"We heard you screaming." Said Yukio concerned.
"Your all sweaty, and you look extremely exhausted!" Said Apollo.
I say nothing I don't even write or nod. Am to shaken up by the dream. That dream I have every night, every time I close my eyes.
"Hailee..." says Subaru, "your shaking."
Next thing I knew Ash was hugging me, and petting my head to calm me. I wrapped my arms around him tight and buried my face in his chest. He held me tighter in return.
"Its okay Hailee." Ash says to calm me "am here."

One hour later.

I was sleeping on the couch while Father and everyone else watches over me.
"Hailee, always has these really bad dreams ever since I got her she has always had then, am sorry I didn't tell you." said my father.
"It's okay, but will she be okay?" Said Shane.
"And why did she scream now, I mean it hasn't happened until now." Ask Mitchell
"Well, Hailee can control it sometimes so she doesn't scream but, sometimes like this one the dream is so bad even she can't handle it." Says my father, "and yes, she'll be okay just watch her for a little while."
"We can't everyone has to go to Tyree's play today." Says Apollo
"That's okay ill stay and watch her." Says Ash. It was almost like he was planning this to happen. Yes, its true Ash was a good guy but, the boys know Ash was always a trouble maker. But Ash was serious about this at least that's what he got everyone to believe, on the inside, he was planning something big.
"Okay, Ash we leave Hailee in your care." Says Shane
"Don't do anything funny or else!" Says Yukio.
"I won't!" Says Ash.
With that said they leave.
I woke up. I felt something soft yet hard under my head. I opened my eyes. My head was resting on Ash's lap! I sit up immediately.
"Morning Hail, are you feeling better now?" Ash asked concerned.
I nod yes. Was he by my side the whole time watching over me?
"You sleep so soundly it was cute!" Said Ash happily.
I blush. He was! How nice and yet I feel like he likes embarrassing me!
"Everyone left so it's me and you, are you hungry?" He asked.
I nod yes.
"Good, because I made you bacon and eggs!" He says.
I smile happily, I want to say thanks but I don't have my paper or pen.
He noticed I was looking for it "here I grabbed it for you!" He says handing it to me.
I write "thanks for everything!" And smile.
"No problem!" Ash says happily "now eat up!" He gives me my food and I happily eat it. After I eat all my food he takes care of the plat for me. How nice, I think to myself.
"What do you want to do?" Asked Ash when he returned from the kitchen.
Hmmm...oh I know! "How about we play a game!" I write and happily smile.
"Sounds fun! How about War Fair?" He asked enthusiastically.
I nod yes, happily! I love video games!
We played until night.
"Haha, I win again!" I write and smile.
"You're too good at video games!" He says and smiles back. "Wow, time sure fly's well, time for bed."
I nod yes. As I walk up the stairs I miss one of the steps. I brass for a hard landing, I shut my eyes and ready my hands. But nothing happened, I open my eyes slowly. I was in Ash's arms!
"You alright Hailee?" He asks sympathetically.
I nod yes.
And that's when Ash made his smooth move.
"I guess even the stairs wanted you badly, but I can do better than that!" He proclaimed.
He kisses me! I try to push away but my body goes numb and I gently close my eyes. I give up their all going to kiss me, aren't they! Later I find out that, that though was correct.
"Your lips are so soft Hailee, I want you to say by my side always." He whispers in my ear with a husky voice.
"We're home!" Yelled someone.
"You better have not done anything to Hailee!" Yelled another.
I instantly separate myself from Ash.
"Welcome home!" I write trying to hide my embarrassment.
"Hi Hailee, how was your sleep?" Asked my father.
"Fine." I write no longer needing to hide my embarrassment because the though of that dream gives me a whole other emotion.
"Hailee..." said Subaru.
"Are you-" Yukio never finished his sentence. They all just stare at me.
"What?" I ask and smile a forced smile.
"Are you sure your okay?" Asked my father.
As usual, I lie so he won't worry, "yes!" I write.
"Okay, if you say so, I got to go now see ya later." Father and mother live away from us so in this house it's just me and the boys.
"Okay, bye drive safe!" I write and walk him to the door. After he leaves.
"Hail lets play!" Tyree asked while I come back down the stairs.
"Actually, am going to bed, sorry Tyree but I promise tomorrow!" I write.
"Awww... Okay." He says.
"Hailee, are you sure your okay?" Asked Apollo. Everyone looked at me worryingly.
I nod yes and go to my room.
I lied again but only so others won't worry, I don't like when people worry because my whole life I have worried I don't want others to go through that especially them. As I go to sleep I think about this hole day of ASH'S SMOOTH MOVE...
