-Lexi-

I watched as Jason slept next to me. He looked so calm, so peaceful. I had never seen him look this calm before. It was adorable.

Shut up Lexi you can't be thinking that.

I looked down as I was wearing a top and tracksuit bottoms that I bought on my shopping trip, with Emma.

I smiled thinking back on the memory. The first time I felt like I had a friend since Jason had taken me hostage.

I cast my eyes back over Jason's sleepy body. He lied there, shirtless. He must have got too hot because he had pushed the cover off of him.

I gazed up and down his well-built body. His perfectly formed abs and v-line. Tattoos on his arms. It was kind off turn on.

Ew, what am I thinking.

I wished Jason was always this calm and sweet, instead of getting angry all the time.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Anything you want to do today?" Jason asked me, stretching tiredly as he had just awoken from his slumber.

It annoyed me how he didn't really acknowledge the fact that he had kidnapped me, I wasn't happy here and I wanted to go home.

However, at the same time... I also wanted to know Jason. I wanted to understand him. Maybe then I would realise there was a reason for this.

"Jason?" I whispered quietly.
"Hmm"
"Why, why did you take me?"
"You know why. Because I fell in love with you. Because I couldn't bear to go another day without feeling closer to you. Because the longer I was without you, the less chance there is of me becoming... normal again" he replied. Shrugging his shoulders, as if it was no big deal.

"How is me being here going to make you normal?"
"Because, your love can change me. Make me a better person. I hate the life I've been brought into and I want it to change"
"What if I never fall in love with you?"

"Then, there will be no point"
"No point in what?"
"My existence"
"Don't say that"
"But it's the truth"

I sighed and decided not to argue with him. I didn't want to make him angry. I was scared of him when he was angry.

Jason rummaged through his closet and pulled out some clothes. Then he walked out, and I'm guessing to the bathroom to get ready.

It had been nearly 9 months. I was starting to gain feelings for him. What did that mean?

Would I fall in love with him? Let my guards down? Prove everyone else right?

I guess it was time to let my sanity go. There was no way I would have got out of there, not without being caught. Jason knew me better than anyone else. Which is weird because I felt like I didn't know him at all. All I knew was his name.

I had decided to just go with the flow. I'd become more friendly with Jason and see where things went. However, I wouldn't let my guard down, not completely. I want to see how he is with us just being friends, first.

~~~~~~~~~~

I awoke to the sound of the door opening and closing, not very loud though. It was Jason coming back from the bathroom. I thought of something to do for a while.

Then it came to me, I knew what I wanted to do.

I inhaled a long breath, and sighed. "I know what I want to do today" I said. I knew what I said next was going to make him angry. But I didn't care.
