Chapter 3-

Sorry it's been a while:/

Bonnie's POV

"Daddy Stop!" I screamed, how is this happening all over again. I'm back in the basement tied to the mattress "Help someone!" I yell and it earns me a blow to the cheek, I wince in pain as I feel my black eye forming. "Be a good princess" he says as he ties a gag around my mouth "no one likes a screamer" he sneers rubbing his pistol against my face, the cold metal sends chills over my body "oh you like that" he cackles taking out his knife drawing blood from my stomach. I scream loudly, and I feel someone grab my shoulders.

Olivia's POV

I finished putting Bonnie in bed, I softly closed her door and shuffled down the hall to my room. Starting to slowly fall asleep I started to hear some quiet sounds coming from down the hall, I decided to brush it off and continued to fall asleep... Then the sounds of whimpers became full on hysteria. So I threw back the covers and quickly ran down the hall and I swung the door open.

Bonnie was wrapped in her sheets in a pool of sweat, she was having a nightmare, and a bad one at that. I quickly assessed the state she was in and began to shake her awake. "Wake up honey" "it's just a bad dream" I said as she began to open her eyes. She immediately began to cower in the corner of the bed and started to cry harder, "I'm so sorry" "i...it won't happen again Olivia" she managed sobbing. I slid into bed pulling her close to my chest. She flinched at my sudden touch, "Shhh it's okay he's gone" I cooed, "nightmares happen it's okay I got you" I said softly. "He..he was there and he had me a..and he was raping me again" she cried, I felt my shirt wet with tears "h..he was going t..to kill me Olivia" she cried holding a fistful of my teeshirt in her fragile hands, "You're safe now" I said rubbing small circles on her back as her cries subsided to short breaths and her body relaxed, holding back tears of my own as I observed her emotional state. Her cries filled the room and her breathing was more like gasps. "Do you want to come sleep in my bed?" I asked, she slowly nodded. "Okay" I whispered pulling back the covers and taking her tiny hand in mine, her palms were warm. I walked her down the hall, she was half asleep and still a little drowsy from her pain medication. The only sound was the uneven pitter patter of her bare feet on the wood and the occasional gasp for air in-between sobs.

With her cheeks stained with tears I lifted her up and pulled back my comforter and tucked her in. Then she curled up in a little ball, putting her head in my chest with her arms around my waist. "Livia, I'm scared" she said softly, half asleep "I'm not leaving don't worry sweetheart" I said rubbing those same small circles on her back. Soon her short breaths turned into long even ones, and she fell asleep.

Bonnie's POV

I woke up remembering that I was in Olivia's bed because I had a nightmare and felt foolish for feeling so scared. Then I rolled over and noticed Olivia wasn't there and my heart started to race and the same feeling that I felt when I realized my mom died came over me and I started to breathe really fast so I pulled back the covers and ran down the hallway only stopping when I tripped and scrapped my knee on the wood floor. I took a big drag in for air and I heard some pots rattle on the stove. Before I knew it Olivia was siting next to me on the floor "what happened here" she giggled "I..I.I thought you left m..me, and I thought you were going to d..disappear like my mom did" I said trailing off, looking down at my bloody knee through my tear-filled eyes. "I was only getting a cup of coffee and getting some breakfast ready, I won't go anywhere" she promised.  "Lets get you cleaned up" Olivia suggested "don't move i'll be right back" she said hastily running into the bathroom, within a minute she came back with this bottle of clear liquid and some gauze and a large bandaid. "This might sting a little but it will feel better really soon" she said inspecting my scrape and glancing back up at me to see me nod. I squeezed my eyes shut and clenched my teeth as I felt the liquid bubble in my knee. "Is it almost over Olivia" I asked opening one eye, "Yes, I'm just going to dry it now" she said rubbing my leg with her opposite hand "almost done" she said opening the bandaid and putting some cream on it. "Okay lets have some breakfast now" she said smiling and helping me to my feet. "But we ate last night" I stated, confused.

Olivia's POV

"But we ate last night" she said confused, and at that moment my heart broke in two, she was never fed more than once every few days. I took her tiny hands in mine, "we eat three times a day honey, and sometimes snack in between, never be afraid to ask for food or tell me if you're hungry, okay?" She nodded and we sat down and I started to fry the eggs and bacon.

Taking suggestions in the comments, I will try to incorporate ideas within reason:)
