"Aria I love you. You have to understand!" Zen said. I turned my head away from him. " NO Zen I will never love you. I hate you."
I jolted awake. I was drenched in sweat and the temperature of the room seemed to drop. Why the hell was I suddenly dreaming about Zen? We havent't spoken in 6 months...up until yesterday. It was most likely because I was sleeping half naked in his bed. I was able to move now so I assumed I was running on some sort of pain killer but I don't recall taking any. I sat up searching only the bed for a heavier blanket. After staring around the room I seen one on Zen's recliner...I whipped the sheet off and rolled off the bed. "HOLY FUCK!" Someone screamed and I felt the pain of the bruises. " Shit! I didn't know you were on the floor!" O...my...god. I was on top of Zen...in...my bra and panties. " Um...that's okay..." I realized he was only in his boxers. I pushed myself off of him as fast as my body would let me go...which wasn't very fast...at all. I pulled my self up on the bookshelf. I felt extremely awkward limping to go get the blanket. " Hey...I'm just going to go get dressed and walk home..." I managed to get out. " Well you're just going to have to limp home like that. You didn't have any clothes on when I found you...you didn't have panties on either...Daylee had to run down the road to her house to get a pair you kept at her house..." I stood there frozen. I...I was raped...Zen saved me. Oh my god. I collapsed to the floor. I gasped and I suddenly felt like I couldn't breathe. " Aria it's fine y-you weren't...raped" Still atleast 6 people seen me that...vunerable. I felt Zen lifting me off the ground and laying me on the bed. He grabbed the blanket I was originally supposed to grab but obviously didn't. He tucked me in and started to turn to lay down. " W-wait...Zenlay...lay with me...plaese?" He smiled weakly and said " Aria I'm going to be right next to the bed...you'll be fine." I don't know why but that hurt my feelings I tried not to show it but my eyes started filling with tears. I looked down quickly but he already seen. I heard him sigh and then I felt the bed shift telling me he as getting into bed. He automatically wrapped his strong arms around me. " Thanks Zen...for everything." I said sleepily. " Anything for you Aria...you should know that..." He kissed my forehead and I managed to drift off into a deeep slumber.
