It's Always Been You

Chapter 13 Demons

Chapter 13

*Scott's POV

Mitch felt it too, so it wasn't just me. What do I do? I feel like I brought this onto us. These are my demons, not his... "Scott, are you sure you're okay? You seem distracted lately." Mitch asks me. We were cuddled up on the bed watching cartoons. Mitch was lying on his side with one leg propped over mine and his arm around my waist. Dangerously close to my privates. I lighten up the mood and reply, "Yeah, you're arm being right there is really distracting, actually." I smirk. He giggles and looks down at the area before returning his gaze back to mine. "I know there's something on your mind, you can talk to me babe." He states with a concerned look on his face. I let out air that I had been holding in. "I'm scared of your reaction." I say quietly while looking down. "I will understand, our lives are crazy. Just tell me." Mitch says understandingly. I decide to just tell him. What's the worst that could possibly happen? "Okay well, back when I was ten years old, I had some pretty terrifying things happen to me, that aren't very easily explained," I could feel his eyes studying me. "I would see things and hear things-" He stopped me. "What kind of things?" He asked genuinely curious. I hesitate. "Like...ghosts and voices..." He just nods, almost knowingly, so I continue. "They tortured me, especially at night. I was scared to go to bed," Mitch puts his hand on my arm to comfort me. "They were dark entities, like black shadows. They would say my name and things I didn't even understand. They went away after awhile, but I think they're back again..." I say quietly. I was scared to even be talking about this. I could almost feel them or it, watching me. I hope Mitch believed me.

*Mitch's POV

Hearing what Scott said, made me have the chills. I was officially frightened. I felt depressed and doomed and dark. There was no reason to feel that way though. How do we overcome this? "I believe you, love. What do we do though?" I ask with fear in my voice. He just shakes his head. I climb on top of him and rest my head on his chest, I listen to his heartbeat. He puts his arms around my torso and kisses the top of my head. "I'll protect you, Mitchie." He tells me. I sigh.
