CHAPTER 9

Michael's POV

I'm still thinking about Zoe's voice. How can she say such things that she's not good? she sounds wonderful to me and if the guys hear her voice they'll say the same thing. I'm staring on the ceiling waiting for Zoe to come out the bathroom to change when I hear the door opened my eyes met hers. she looks so cute on my clothes and my shirt looks like a dress to her. I smiled at her and invite her to get in bed so we can rest now. she hopped on the bed I covered her with the blanket.

"is it okay I cuddle you?" I asked her and she nodded. she feels so warm and I love it. I hugged her and she bury her face on my neck and I can feel her breath on my neck that give me goosebumps.

"You don't have to worry anymore Zoe, I'm here now. I wont let anything happened to you again." I whispered to her she hugged me tighter as her respond and I did the same thing. I closed my eyes and start to doze off.

Zoe's POV

me, bea and the guys are in some garage just jamming when someone burst into the door. I looked carefully who it was and I got scared when I saw my dad. he look furious and he's looking for me. but why? why now? what did he want? He looked at me then walked towards me, he wants me to come with him.

"get off me!! you're hurting me!" he didn't listen to me and his grip tightens. i look at Michael trying to get help but they're just watching us, watching me getting hurt. I started to cry and trying get out of my dad's grip. i keep on screaming. please help me...

Michael's POV

I wake up to some scream then saw Zoe seating and crying while hugging her legs. She had a bad dream I assumed. I got worried and try to comfort her.

"shh it's okay its just a dream Zoe, you are fine I'm here now" I bring her into my arms and just hug her until she calms down. when she finally calmed down I wiped her tears and kissed her forehead.

"do you want anything? do you want some water?" asked her and she just shook her head still looking all tired from crying.

"do you wanna talk about it? but its okay if you don't want to, just maybe it'll help you if you tell me" I hold her hand just trace random lines on her hand

"I just wanna go back to sleep. ill tell you about it tomorrow. can we back to sleep please?" I gave her a small smile and bring her to bed. pull the cover over her and pull her close to me. I hummed and try to sooth her.

"I'll be here when you wake up so don't worry, cause I'm not going anywhere" I hug her tightly.

--------

I woke up around 10 in the morning and I'm still in bed waiting for Zoe to wake up. I watched her and she looks so peaceful sleeping, her hair is all over the place, smudge eyeliner and slightly open lips but still looks so perfect for me. Since the first time I saw her, she's the most beautiful person I saw in my life, sadly she doesn't know that she's beautiful cause people make her believe that she's not. It makes me really sad about what happened to her in her past that really affects what she is now.

she's a mess, but it doesn't matter I'll help her get through this, ill help her be okay again. there's something in me that wants to protect her and take care of her. she may seem a strong girl but she needs someone who can lean on, someone who can run to. So I promise myself that I'll protect her, I'll never let anyone hurt her again, not on my watch.

I was in the middle of my thoughts when I saw her move. she slowly opens her eyes trying to adjust from the light. She's so cute I just wanna kiss her right now but I cant do that.

She looked at me with a those brown puffy eyes and smiled at her.

"Good morning, Sunshine" she suddenly hides under the covers and sighed

"why are you hiding your face?" i said trying to uncover her face

"Noooo I'm sure my face is a mess and my eyes are puffy from crying last night. so no, not gonna let you look at my ugly face" she said still hiding under the covers. I Just chuckled and hold her close to me.

"I don't mind seeing you like that, you are still beautiful okay?" She peeked and look at me those puffy eyes

"come out now, I'll make pancakes for breakfast" I told her makes her to get up. that makes me smile and happy. My parents are now at work so no one's home. I opened the bedroom door and go downstairs to the kitchen. Zoe's still upstairs doing her thing in the bathroom.

I'm in the middle of making the pancakes when she came entered the kitchen wearing a new shirt of mine. She really looks good in my clothes.

"hope you don't mind if I borrow one of your shirts, the other shirt got wet when I'm trying to wash my face." she said looking down to the shirt she wearing

"naahh, its all good besides you look good on them so yea I don't mind" I flipped the last pancake and place it on the plate. I can feel a pair of eyes watching me preparing the table. I took the syrup and orange juice and place it on the table.

"come on lets eat" she seem a little shy so Ill make sure that she'll be comfortable with me. she starts to eat and seeing her like that makes me happy.

"sooo you have plans for today?" i asked her then drink some orange juice

"nothing much, my grand parents aren't home for weeks. It's my day off today. so yea I don't have plans"

"you wanna hang out later? just the two of us, I just want to show you something" I asked her hoping she'll say yes

" Yea sure. What time tho?"

"Ill pick you up around 5 PM is that cool?" she nodded and took another bite of pancake. I got excited and cant stop smiling right now. It'll be fun I'm sure.
