Her lips taste like cherry vodka, there in no passion behind her kisses just lust. Not just hers mine too. It doesn't take long before i loose myself.
I grab her hips as a command for her to jump, and she obliges. I lead her up the stairs carefully. Once we reached my room i dropped her on my bed and hovered over her. My lips trailed kisses down her neck and i sucked on the spot above her collarbone. I am rewarded by a soft moan.
She tugs at the hem of my shirt and i break our kiss to take off my top. before i know it she pulls me off and starts straddling my torso. Her soft plum lips attack my neck and i cant old in my moan.
reality hits me too soon.
"Wait Wait.... wait" i breath, gently pushing her off of me.
"What happened, Why are you hear?"
"why, You don't want me here?" she whispers while sucking on my lobe
"I do" i grunt, Pushing her off once more "But You are clearly drunk and don't know what you are doing or thinking" i ramble on.
I am interrupted when she drops her head in her hands and begins to sob.
What.. why is she crying?, what happened?. I mean, i just thought she was drunk, but its pretty obvious now that she is upset about something.
"Hali? Baby? Whats wrong? What happened? talk to me" I Said resting her head on my chest as she sobbed.
"Josh" she cried into my chest
My blood boils. Josh. What did he do? Did he touch her? I swear to god if he touched her....
"What? what about josh? what did he do? I'm going to kill that bastard" I said the last part more to myself.
"He...He...." I can barley understand her, over her sobs.
"What baby? what?"
"I.. I caught him with that red head girl that you like"
"Doing what" She looked at me as if i should know
realization hits
"Oh... Right."
Hali falls asleep after what feels like forever of me just holding her while he cry's into my chest and her repeating " I loved him, I fucking loved him"
Hours pass of me just staring at her beautiful form, i finally fall asleep.
.............
I am awoken by screaming and crying
"No, No , NO , Please, LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!, DON'T TOUCH HIM!!!" A voice screams
I automatically jump from my bed and rush to wake up my baby sister.
"Wake Up Nalla. NALLA!! wake up.
After shaking and nudging, She doesn't wake up. Her face is drenched with sweat and her eyes are screwed shut. You can hear her soft whimpers a mile away.
"NALLA, PLEASE NALLA WAKE UP!! I scream
"Soda?" A voice calls from behind. I turn around to find Hali with a worried expression "Whats wrong with her" she takes in Nalla's appearance
"She's not waking up, Get her some water" Hali hasn't moved "NOW!!!" i scream and she quickly runs out the door.
I shouldn't have yelled at her but i don't care, my sister is suffering in hell again, and this time i don't know how to save her.
Within 15 seconds, Hali returns with a full glass of water in her hands.
I am prepared to spill the whole glass on Nalla's face, I stop once her eyes shoot open.
She is panting and struggling for breath
"Its okay, I'm here, I'm okay, I'm here.. Drink, just drink" I hand her the glass while rubbing her back in a comforting motion. She gulps down the glass within seconds.
"You're okay, you're going to be okay" I try to calm her down. she wraps her arms around my neck and i give her a comforting hug. "You're safe, Always, as long as i am here, you will always be safe. Okay?" she nods and gently rests her head against the pillow.
I stand up and she grabs my wrist "I'll be right back, Im not going anywhere, I promise" I kiss her forehead before guiding Hali out of the room
"You okay?" i take in her expression as a worried expression.
"Yeah" he breathes "Just confused, What was that? why wouldn't she wake up?" she sits on my bed and i join her
I glance at the clock that blinks 6:32. We have to get ready for school soon.
I sigh and run my hands through my hair before answering her. "When i was 10 My dad smashed my head with a trophy or something, and I got a minor concussion. Ever since then, Nalla always had nightmares about my dad hurting her, me, or my mom had dreams where he kills her, But it wasn't him, she died from cancer. I don't now why or how that got into her head and now its haunting her. Its very rare for her to have dreams less sleep. She never had dreams so strong that she couldn't wake up from."
"Couldn't she go to therapy or something? Anything that will help her?"
"She refuses. Plus I tried that already. Our 4th foster mom was annoyed of Nalla's dreams waking her up in the middle of the night, so she got her some help. It was useless, she wouldn't say anything. Not even a sentence. They would literally sit there for 2 and a half hours saying nothing. Not one word."
"wow" I can tell she is at a loss for words.
"I'm sorry, We are kind of a dysfunctional family" i partially laugh
"Family? You call this a family?. You have no mom or dad. I'm sorry, but this isn't a family"
I take her hand in mines and look into her eyes.
"I don't need a mom or dad to have a family. Nalla is my family. And she is all i need"
She gives me a warm smile and a look
"what?"
"Nothing" she looks down "It just amazes me, that's all"
"What does" i lift her head by her chin
"You. and Nalla. The way you care for each other. the way you need each other. Most sibling bicker and fight constantly. They don't get along at all. I mean, I cant stand my sister. But.. You guys are different. Its truly incredible the way you protect one another, And love each other with all that you have"
"Nalla is my sister. She IS all that i have. I would kill for her. I would do anything for her. I will protect her for the rest of my life.. I will not sleep unless i know that she is safe. I will not live my life until she has lived hers." She watches me speak with wide eyes
She wraps her arms around me and nuzzles her head into my neck.
"You are incredible, You know that?" she whispers in my ear
"Josh is a dick" I say and she laughs
"Come one, we need to be up in less than 2 hours. You can sleep here, ill go with Nalla"
We exchange our 'good nights' before i lightly close the door and walk into Nalla's room.
I never told anybody that. The only people that know that are me, Nalla, and my mom. But I don't know. There is just something different about Hali. I mean i had girlfriends before, I had people i liked before, But never like this. Hali is not even my girlfriend and i just told her something very personal about my life. I don't know why, I just feel like i can trust her. I hope i can.
"Soda?" A soft whimper interrupts me from my thoughts
"Yes angel?"
"Come here" My Sweet little sister calls me over and opens the sheets for me to climb in and i do.
"Don't call me angel, It makes me feel weak and fragile" her eyes are still closed. she is exhausted
"okay" is the last thing i said before she drifted to sleep
