Don't you remember

Chapter 6 : Then comes trouble

Adele's POV

After the shower I took, I couldn't feel my legs anymore. My sight was getting worst and worst, Simon had to help me to lay on his bed.

-"Georgie is asleep ! he told me "

I didn't reply and he continued :

-"I know you don't like her !"

-" I hate her Simon, she's arrogant and disrespectful ! I told him"

He kept silence for a while, then he looked at me in both eyes :

-" But she's my daughter, so we're gonna have to make efforts ! he said"

-"She'll have to make efforts too Simon ! Or I won't be very agreable with her ! I replied, angry"

He sighed and said :

-" Yes you're right, she'll have to make efforts with both of us ! "

I smiled and he switched off the light. Simon was really close from me, I could feel his breath on my skin. I hesitated : should I snuggle up to him ? I'm dying for a cuddle but are we close enough ? I don't think so. I fell in a light sleep a few minutes later, but I got awaken in the middle of the night, my head was hurting so much. I was in the dark laying on something comfortable: where am I ? I could hear someone breathing next to me, I turned to my left and realised I was in a man's bed, moreover, this man was looking at me. When he saw that I was looking back, a large smile appeared on his face. Sadly, I couldn't see him very well because my vision was all blurred ;

-"Excuse me, who are you ? And where am I ? I asked"

-" Adele, it's me Simon ! the man said"

He tried to hug me but I struggled :

-" No ! Let me go ! I don't know you ! I screamed"

He caught my arms and whispered :

-"Calm down Adele, it's false when you say you don't know me, you just don't remember me ! "

-" Let me go you mad man ! I said"

I wanted to get up but Simon came over me, stucking me between the bed and his chest.

-" Clear off bastard ! I said"

Why did this man want me to stay in his bed ? He took my head between his two warm hands and whispered :

-" Adele it's me ! Simon ! The man who showed you the exit ! You're safe here at my house ! Don't you remember ? "

I calmed down and my head stopped hurting :

-"Simon ! I whispered"
