(Trigger warning)

It seemed like a normal night

with her favourite people

when she fell asleep

until she woke up

to his hands in her sheets

she jolted

so did he

but just for a second

because when she turned the other way

he didn't leave

he did it three more times

with the thought that she was oblivious

but she was wide awake

only paralyzed

that day

she told people who were older

only for them to do nothing

and her every single night after that one

to end

drenched in disgusting tears
