Lisa's p.o.v

I was walking down a dark alley when I felt someone approach me from the back, I felt a shiver run down my spine and I felt my body go numb. A cold hand reached for my neck and I felt it strangling me, taking away my breadth.

I just stood there paralyzed and not able to move, from a distance I could hear the voice of my devil, it was so familiar and despite my struggles to free myself I just remained there motionless. I started screaming but I wasn't sure if anyone could hear me.

Then I heard someone shaking me, I was still numb and even though the person sounded concerned I did not open my eyes immediately.

Then a switch was pressed and I forced my eyes open, Eddy was kneeling beside the bed with concern in his eyes.

"You were screaming"
Had it been real or was it just a nightmare?

"Am sorry for scaring you, I was just having a bad nightmare"

I was holding his hand firmly without realizing it but when it hit me I let go of it slowly before the cold enveloped me again and I wanted for him to just hug me.

"Okay go back to sleep then it was just a bad nightmare, I can leave the lights on if you want"

I knew that would not even help me at all, I had tried it so many times but the nightmares were still there. I missed my parents I remembered when I was little my mom would hold me and not leave my side when I was having a bad dream.

Eddy pulled the blankets to cover me well before assuring me that I was safe but immediately he made a step back to leave the room, I felt a shiver and I didn't want to be alone.

"Eddy, please stay"

He stood there not moving and I could see that he was indecisive of what to do.

"Are you sure you want me to stay?"

"Yes please, that way I won't be that scared"

When he hesitated I moved at the far corner of the bed to give him room to fit in beside me, I wasn't sure if I was doing the right thing but right now it just didn't matter, I didn't want to be alone in a room and deal with my demons.

Eddy was wearing a white tee and gray shorts and from where I was I could see his muscular legs that were abit hairy, I wanted to pass my fingers on his.....

What the hell Lisa, are you crazy?

I mentally slapped myself before Eddy climbed beside me, he lowered himself abit far and I felt the heat pass thorough my body from my toes to the end of my hair trail.

This was really weired and exciting as a matter of fact I just felt like I wasn't myself at all.

"Hey but if you change your mind, just tell me so I can go back to my coach before it gets cold"

I laughed at his words as a blush found its way on my face, of course I didn't want him to leave, I felt bad that I had occupied his bed and left him to sleep on the uncomfortable coach.

"Why didn't you just let me sleep on the coach instead? This is your bed"

"No you are too fragile to sleep on the cold"

I saw a small smile tag on the side of his mouth, and I wanted to keep the conversation going, somehow I was doing it to stay awake and also I couldn't help but feel comfortable with him.

"Are you calling me weak Mr. Because you haven't seen the bad side of me"

I didn't know where that joke came from and what came over me, I moved from where I was and pounced on him, I started giving him small punches on the chest which ofcourse had no impact on him, the guy was really strong.

At first I saw him hesitant surprised by my action, I had caught him unawares actually i had surprised myself too. There were those times that I felt like there was another Lisa sleeping inside just waiting for the right moment to make a move. At this point I was sure she was the one and i had little control over her.

Just then Eddy got the gesture and before I could catch my breadth, he was on top of me tickling me, this was the no go zone for anyone I just laughed so much but he seemed to enjoy it.

When I couldn't breath anymore I strated crying although it was the effect of laughing hard.

"Hey are you crying now, I thought you said you were tough"

That did the trick, he stopped the tickling but maintained his position on top of me, our eyes met and the room bacame smaller I felt my walls crumbling, every single shield was coming down and I knew this wasn't a good sign.

Somehow It was my fault I had led him on, I made the first move and so I couldn't blame him.

My eyes shifted to his lips and I could swear that I wanted to kiss him, as if he heard my thoughts Eddy bent down slowly placing his lips on mine, my first instinct was to push him away but then again that was not going to happen I wanted him too.

At first I just let his lips move against mine slowly and soothingly then slowly I kissed him back, I opened up to him as his hand held my head .

I found my fingers going through his hair at the back of his head as the kiss got intense , I closed my eyes not caring even for one second.

I did not want to stop and neither did I wan him to stop kissing me. But then he pulled back,

"Am sorry, but pretty its time for you to sleep"

"Okay boss, as long as you are sleeping here with me"

We both smiled as he layed down and pulled me close to his chest, my heart was just not ready to rest as for my stomach there was a butterflies' ceremony going on in there.

In between my sleep its like I heard Eddy talk it was not so clear but I was sure he had said I love you. With that I fell asleep without worrying about the scary nightmares.
