Demons without Desire

Sleep makes everything better

Zak POV.

Ten minutes had passed and silence was becoming a new part of our relationship...

I was sat in the kitchen with my arm on the table whilst Kaylee sat there cleaning it, first aid box spread out across the table with her hair thrown up and latex gloves on.

I had suggested sticking a band aid on but she threw me a look that told me to shut up if I knew what was good for me.

Whilst Kaylee cleaned my arm gently I had taken the opportunity to watch her, she seemed to be in full concentration whilst doing it. Pressing on a gauze she looked up to see my eyes and instantly looked away.

"Please..." I whispered placing my hand on hers.

"Am I becoming a monster?" She asked looking at me.

I shook my head instantly "No, no way."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Then why am I attacking you? You of all people. It's not normal behaviour for anyone to bite someone! You hear dog owners say they couldn't understand why their dog would bite. I'm a human.. I'm a person and I have bit you that hard I've made you bleed?"

"It wasn't you..."

"The fuck it was! I sank my teeth into your arm. Me.. I did that." She pointed as tears rolled from her eyes. "I hurt you.."

I tried to comfort her but she moved away and shook her head. "No. No I don't need comfort. I need a fucking muzzle." She said biting her lower lip in anxiety and pain she picked up the gauze and inspected it before placing a fresh gauze down. Kaylee picked up a bandaid and placed it over the gauze sticking it down. Her thumbs smoothed it over before she kissed her fingers and placed it on top.

"I'm so sorry." She whispered wiping tears away.

"It wasn't you." I reminded her.

Picking up my phone, she went through it before finding what she wanted and placing the phone against her ear.

"Who are you ringing?" I asked.

"You will need it checked. Tetanus check as well.." She replied getting up and walking away to speak to the medical centre I use.

This was going to be yet another set back.. I wanted to give her the best yet all I seemed to be doing was messing up. This has yet again backfired and now she was withdrawing..

Only if you let her...

I stood up and walked through the house until I found her in the bedroom stood at the window. Seeing my phone on the side I stormed over and pulled her away from the window. Confused she looked at me worried as I pushed her on the bed.

"Za-"

"Shut up." I demanded pinning her wrists above her head. Her eyes looked at me with sorry expressions, I planned to ravish her, make her forget what had happened but instead I collapsed on her, my head pressed against her breasts whilst my arms held onto her sides so she couldn't leave.

Her hands came down from where I had put them and began playing with my hair gently "I understand if you want me to sleep in another room to-"

"No. I want you with me. I want you here." I answered squeezing her gently.

"Your appointment is at 3pm.. I made a late one so you could get some sleep in." She said playing with my ear.

"Thank you."

"It's okay.. Least I can do. Tonight I'll cook. Whatever you want, yeah?" She asked.

I sighed and lifted my head up "I just want you to promise, that you won't shut me out, I need to know everything in that beautiful mind of yours. Good and the bad. I need to know.."

"Then you need to know that I'm sorry and that I love you more than the world itself.. More than home, Australia I mean."

"You don't consider this as home?" I asked gesturing to the house.

Her head shook "You're my home... Now make use of booby time and take that top off."

I grinned and sat back on my knees slowly taking my top off for her. "You're a damn tease..." She sighed as I moved between her legs slowly.

"Only for you." I replied and dropped like a lead weight onto her causing Kaylee to giggle.

Her hand rubbed my back and played with my hair until I passed out to block out the pain and throbbing of my arm which was pushed away from her body incase Kaylee moved in her sleep.

Kaylee POV

It was around midday when Zak woke up still pressed against me, my hand was buried in his hair bringing him from sleep as gently as possible knowing he would need food, shower and to get ready before we went to the medical centre.

"Not yet.." He grumbled.

"We have to." I whispered.

"No."

"Yes, yes, yes and yes." I replied making him groan and push his head into my boob.

"I've spent so much money, and spent time finding the perfect pillows and all this time they have been on your chest.. 5 more minutes." He sighed.

I couldn't help but smile and scratch his head "5 more minutes then." I whispered and watched his lips curl back in a smile before he squeezed his eyes shut.

He had 20 more minutes before I was pulling his ears and hair gently to wake him up.

"Kaylee please." He whines as I pulled his nose.

"Stop."

I gave him a fish hook to the mouth making him laugh, "you're so annoying."

"Wakey Wakey."

"Go awaykey." He answered closing his eyes.

"Zak. You need to go to the doctors."

"Son of mongoose." He moaned sitting up and rubbing his face.

I sat up and gave him a kiss but as I went to withdraw his hand caught the back of my head and he launched into attack. I moaned as his hand fisted my hair before he pulled back.

"Only if you're quick." I whispered before squealing as he dived back in.
