Cece's POV

"NO!NO! DON'T TOUCH ME!" I started shouting at the man but he didn't paid attention to my pleas. "AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I shouted, but when I felt the lack of air inside me, I knew it had been just a nightmare, that I had woken up again pressing my shouts against the pillow in my bed...

"Cece! Wake up Cece!" someone shook me and turned me round. Then I recall I was not in my bed...

I opened my eyes that met with Evan's.

"I heard shouting, what happened?" Jason said as he entered the room agitated.

"You know that the point in shifts of guard are for the rest to sleep, why aren't you?" Evan asked bitterly to Jason.

"I couldn't." Jason answered, but this time looking right into my eyes so before they could ask anything I laid in the bed again and turned to the other side for me not to face them. I could feel their confused gaze over me and I hated it, I hated being alive.

"Why were you screaming?" Evan asked me.

"I don't care, better question is to who where you screaming Cece?" Jason asked me while I was still not facing them.

"It was a nightmare." I retorted with a sleepy tone after some minutes.

"Want to talk about it?" Evan asked slowly.

"No." I answered right away.

"Well you have to." Jason told me sharply.

"Jason!" Evan snapped him. "It's still 4 am! Cece go back to sleep if you want" he told me "And try to get some sleep Jason, I'm still here, you don't need to be" he finished.

"Nah I'm not tired we can shift now if you want." Jason offered.

"No I'm fine." he retorted and with that Jason was out the room grumbling.

I heard the door opening and someone walking in and out as time passed, and I still couldn't believe they were doing this. Well, actually I did, I just can't believe I'm still... awake... my plan didn't work, not a thing I did work. I kept my eyes shut for none of the three that might be in the room right now notice I'm awake and start asking question, because I had no idea how to answer them. It was the second time I heard some walking in and someone walking out, and then again everything was silent.

"You do the same thing when you were little, when you couldn't sleep I mean. I remember that holidays we went to the beach, Nate always went to sleep early and I kind of too, until I realized you always stood up late. I knew when you weren't sleeping, you eyelids weren't relaxed, just like now." Jason told me and I knew there was no point in lying for now so I just opened my eyes that hurt from the preassure I used by shutting them, damn Jasone was right...

"How long have been like this?" Jason asked with deep sadness in his eyes that kept me confused.

"I have not slept since I woke up at four." I told him.

"Funny, yet I didn't meant that, when did everything started? What happened when you were kidnapped? What happed with trust me I'm okay just to find you dying in the bathtub!?" he asked hurt by his own words while rage grew as flames burning inside him.

"I don't want to talk about it." I told him without answering any of his questions.

"Well too bad because you are going to." he said as he move from the chair were he was sitting to the bed where I was. "You shouted "Don't touch me" back in your nightmare, who were you referring to? What was it about?" he demanded getting closer.

"Please back off" I begged him when I felt the heat of his body through the covers.

"And what about the bruises?" he asked defiant.

"I told you I fell" I answered nervous about his proximity because hours had passed, I still couldn't shake the memories of my nightmare off my head.

"Oh but you didn't answered the one I pointed out yesterday's afternoon" He spoke roughly.

"Get away from me!" I warn him.

"No Cece tell me what happened!" he retorted angrily pushing his body against mine.

"Let me go!" I hissed.

"Not until you tell me what happened!" he barked.

"Jason!" I yelled at him struggling to get free.

"Jason man what are you doing?" Eric interfered slowly pulling him away.

Jason let a frustrated sight and stormed out the room.

"Good morning Cece, ready to eat breakfast?" Eric asked smiling. And I nodded hesitantly.

Evan passed by the door and entered the room.

"Take these, they are from my mum, my parents are in a buisness trip." he told me.

"Okay, so go and I can change" I told both of them.

"Good one, Cece, it reminds me of "go so I can bath" and as that didn't end up quite well so I think I will pass." Evan assured.

"If you don't mind I kind had enough with my last night nakedness..." I started complaining but Evan interrupted.

"Eric can you go and take the toast out the toaster before they burn?" he asked him and without much will Eric went down the stairs. Evan closed the door behind him and told me "Get change, I'll close my eyes, but not leave for a second, I already made that mistake once" he murmured.
