Splintered Hearts

Past memories

I woke with a jolt, fear had filled my body as I laid in the bed. It was like I had gone back nearly 30 years and I was a child again.. Waiting for a lashing.

A warm arm pulled on my body as Zak pushed his face into the back of my neck. His lips kissing my ear as he sighed falling back into his deep sleep.

My fear dwindled as I rubbed his arm gently. Our legs twisted together from a solid night of sleep.  I moved away from Zak slightly to roll over and face him.

I instantly smiled seeing him passed out, mouth open, catching flies.

He was perfect, even the messy hair which looked unruly looked perfect on him.

I rested my hand upon his face gently feeling the light stubble, I had come to appreciate seeing him asleep, looking defenceless, almost infantile as he clung onto me when he slept.

I looked at the window seeing that I was up before sunrise. My birthday was over, but my start with him was just beginning.

By far this was the best present I could ask for, a trip down memory lane. A part of me expected to hear my mum humming in the kitchen...

Some good memories had faded over time but her humming never left, not in my mind. Her soft humming used to send me to sleep, calm me and make me happy.

I looked back at Zak chewing my lip, yesterday I used my wish for him..

Not to have him. Although that would have been a worthwhile wish of course.

But I wished him happiness. I wanted him to be happy, because his future was daunting to him already.  I wanted to see the million dollar smile, the one that made me weak and women swoon. His face was crafted to smile, so he should definitely do it more often

I snuggled under his arm to watch him for a while longer before getting up.

I groaned shielding my eyes from the sunshine that leaked into the room, I patted the bed hoping I could roll onto Robyn's chest and hide.

I'd take booty if she was laying on her front but the bed was cold.

"No..." I moaned putting myself on my front.

But it was no use, she wasn't here so sleep for me was over. I sat up and looked around the room with a frown, eventually I got up out of bed and pulled on my shorts to go and find her.

I had such a good nights sleep, so heavy that I was still suffering as I stumbled around until I saw the front door open.

I would chew Bacons ear off if he has left it open all night!

As I approached I heard some soft grunting making me stop, running my eyes I peered around and found Robyn in the garden clawing at the mud.

What.. The..

"Robyn? What the fuck?" I asked stepping outside.

She didn't hear me so I went down the steps and crossed the garden. "Robyn!" I snapped making her jump and look up at me.

"Za-
