Desperate Hearts. (A Steven Tyler fanfiction)

Chapter 22: Nightmare

I couldn't breathe. I couldn't move. I was stuck. I couldn't open my eyes because I was scared at what I would see.

I felt his hot breath by my ear, as I felt him enter me. I heard his grunt, and the pain was unbearable.

I started to cry, and scream and he just laughed maniacally.

I felt my eyes wanting to open, to wake up but my body wouldn't listen.

Marley, wake up.

~~~

Finally my eyes shot open. I wasn't with him, I was in the bedroom of Steven's house with him curled up next to me. I sat up straight, sweating and breathing heavy. I could feel tears sliding down my face.

"Marley, baby?" Steven questioned.

I couldn't answer because I was still trying to catch my breath.

Steven sat up now, and moved closer to me, tangling his arms around me, pulling me into his chest.

He kissed my forehead.

"Did you have a nightmare?" He asked, as he caressed my cheek.

I sighed solemnly. "Yeah."

He didn't ask what it was about, because he already knew.

I had just escaped from John a day ago. But this nightmare was sure to be one of many.

I felt so disgusting and dirty, and I didn't know how I was gonna live with this.

As Steven continued to caress my cheek and comfort me, I couldn't help but think about the inevitable.

I really didn't wanna tell Steven. He would lose his mind; he would be so angry.

He would be upset if I told him that I might be pregnant.

But I knew I couldn't keep it from him forever.

I sighed, as I opened my mouth to speak.

"Steven?"

He looked down into my eyes, urging me to continue.

I took a deep breath.

"There's something I need to tell you.." I started.

He smiled a little. "What is it, baby?"

"I'm so terrified...and I don't want you to be mad...or upset..."

Steven gripped the sides of my face gently, kissing me quickly.

"Just tell me."

I took another breath. "I might be pregnant."

I couldn't read Steven's expression for a moment.

"That dickhead didn't use a condom, did he?!" I could see some rage forming in his eyes.

I felt tears starting to form again. "No he didn't.."

Steven sighed, clearly pissed off.

I had to ask.

"Are you mad at me?"

He let out a chuckle, and grasped my waist.

"Why in the hell would I be mad at you, sugar? You didn't decide to be kidnapped and raped.." He replied.

I sighed, trying to smile at his point.

After a couple awkward moments of silence, Steven spoke again.

"Well, we have to take you to the doctor's. If you're pregnant, we'll have some decisions to make.. If you're not, that douchehole is lucky because he avoided the hospital."

"Why the hospital?" I asked, nuzzling closer to him.

"Because, Marley. I would seriously hurt him."

I kissed him.

When we pulled back, he smiled that heart fluttering smile.

I placed my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

I felt safe, yet scared. This was my worst nightmare come true.

Thank god Steven was here.
