I wake up to Adam running his fingers down my jaw, seeming to be in a trance. "Good morning," I smile as I open my eyes. "Morning love," he says as he kisses my forehead.

"How are you feeling?" He asks as he runs his hand through my hair. "Tired," I sigh as I put my face in his neck.

"I'm gonna go make some breakfast. Do you want to come lay down on the couch?" He asks as he holds me to him. I nod my head and he picks me up, walking downstairs and laying me on the couch.

He lays a blanket on me and hands me the remote. "Thank you," I say as I turn on the tv and watch supernatural for a while until I decide to go back to sleep.

I wake up to someone coming in the house. "How is she?" I hear someone ask as their voice gets closer. "She's just tired," I hear Adam say as he walks back into the kitchen and the person gets closer.

I feel the person sit down next to the couch and move my hair out of my face. I slowly blink open my eyes to see Jake smiling at me.

"Hey," I whisper as I close my eyes. "Hey. I came to make sure you were doing ok," he says as he rubs my arm. "I've been better but I've also been worse so," I shrug, feeling the drowsiness go through my body.

"Go back to sleep," he says as he kisses my head and disappears. I feel my body shut down and fall into a deep sleep.


I wake up with a jolt, my body covered in sweat. It happened again. I had the same nightmare of me running through the woods, trying to get away from him.

I feel my body tremble as my eyes wander around the dark room. I hear footsteps as they walk down the creaky stairs.

I back up against the couch, trying to hide. "No no no," I whisper repeatedly as I rock back and forth, feeling tears run down my cheeks.

He found me. He's going to take me away.

I hear the footsteps accelerate as they pad against the wooden floor. "Hey hey sweetheart it's ok," I hear as hands are placed on my face. "NO," I scream, feeling trapped in this small room.

I shake under his grasp and feel myself being pulled into his arms. I'm pulled back into reality when I hear Adam softly singing in my ear.

I silently cry as I shut my eyes, glad that it was only Adam. There is a sudden knock on the front door, causing me to jump in Adams arms.

"It's alright love," Adam says as he kisses my head and slowly rises, trudging towards the door. The knocking continues as Adam unlocks the door and pulls it open.

"Adam Taylor?" The officer asks as he looks at Adam. "Yes sir," he replies, slightly shocked. "You are under arrest for the murder of Adam Taylor Sr. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law," the officers recites as he handcuffs Adam.

"Wait!" I yell, scrambling from the couch as I try to reach Adam. "It's ok love, I'll be back. I promise," he says as he is pulled out of the house, leaving me in the middle of a quiet, empty house.
