Rose Mortimer:

"Hold still little flower, the more you stay still the less it will hurt."

His voice kept ringing in my head, his grin imprinted in my mind, his sickly touch tattooed on my skin.

"No, please. No stop. Why Bryan? Stop get off me. GET OFF ME! STOP PLEASE STOP!" I yelled waking up sweating in my bed.

"Shhhh, princess." my dad took me in his arms holding me tight.

I cried in his arms but he only held me tighter.

"It's all over. They can't hurt you anymore. Shhh" he held my head to his chest, his tight hold making me feel safe, that in my dad's arms nothing bad could ever happen to me.

"He's still here. I- I can't still feel him, hear him, see him. Make it stop daddy, please make it stop." I begged.

"I know princess. Shhh, he's gone, he can't hurt you now." my breathing calmed down after a while of just staying in my dad's arms with my mum humming the same song she always does.

"I sorry I woke you up," I confessed after a while.

"It's ok baby girl. Go back to sleep." my mother comes in my ear.

"I can't... I'm scared to see him again." I confessed.

"That's fine, it's 6 am anyway, might as well get up." my dad sat up dragging me with him.

"Let's get you something to eat shall we?" he said trying to sound normal but I could hear the sadness in his voice. I hate seeing the people around me that I love like that.

"Come on sweet."

After breakfast that I didn't want to eat but more like throw up. I went to seek refuge in Damon's room. I don't want to be alone but I don't want my parents to be constantly hovering over me even if I want them to cuddle me and protect me I need to breathe, I need my big brother.

"Damo?" I asked stepping into his room.

"Roro?" I heard his groggy morning voice.

"Can I come in?" I asked biting my lip, I know I just woke him up but I need to talk to him.

"Sure little one." I pulled the quilt off and placed it over me again snuggling up with my brother.

"How are you feeling? Kendyn told me what happened in the hospital..." he dragged, I knew he would talk to him about that.

"I just can't have him around me. Not after what happened before I got kidnapped."

Damon let out a breath.

"He didn't cheat on you." he simply said. I pulled away missing the warmth and the safety I felt.

"Yeah, sure he didn't" I scoffed feeling my emotions all over the place.

" He didn't Rose. You have to talk to him, let him explain what he needs to say." he sat up a little more leaning his back against his headboard.

"You have to hear him out." he tried again. I stood up out of the bed and made my way to the door.

"Rose come back," he called out

"I can't," I whispered stepping out of his room only to come face to face with the one man I didn't want to see right now but I can't help the pull I have towards him.

"Mi rosa." he breathed out, I just pushed past him with tears streaming down my eyes.

I really need to hurl. I thought, getting away from him.
