Love Bitten: The Revamp

Chapter 11 - Her Breakdown

Terry didn't seem fine at all, which was quite worrying. Did something go wrong? Was I her problem? Is that why she has been taking her recent anger out on me? I could literally feel her emotions which was proving to be too much for me as I began to feel tired. I ran a bath for her, before I waited for her to come in the bathroom. I had time to look in the mirror to see if my neck has changed. The bite mark has starting to fade into my skin. 

"Stop looking in the mirror and undress me from these awful clothes." Terry ordered me, her voice making me jump. Something was clearly wrong with her. I turned around before I started to undress her, leaving her naked. 

I then watched her climb into the tub, leaning back against it. "What's wrong?" I asked her. 

"I got fired. Happy now that I told you?" she replied. Her eyes were the darkest red that I have ever seen. She was pissed. 

"So you were actually a therapist?" I asked her, before she nodded. 

"They said that I wasn't good enough. I fucking hate people like that. They drive me mentally insane." she spoke to herself. I began to walk towards the door until I heard her start to cry. I turned back around to look at her. I then let out a sigh before I came towards her and wrapped my arms around her. She accepted my embrace, wrapping her arms around me in a tight embrace. Then, she pulled me in, water went every-fucking-where. 

"They told me that I wasn't good enough for my job, my little one." she sobbed. This was breaking my heart, seeing her like this. All I did as a reply, was to carry on embracing her until she felt better. 

A few hours later, we were no longer in the tub as we were both feeling dehydrated from the hot air. I drank some water before quickly returning to her. I wrapped my arms around her again, before staying like this for another hour before I told her that I had to eat. 

"Zoe?" she called my name, making me look at her. "Thank you. You got no idea how much you mean to me. I am sorry if I ever made you feel like shit." she then told me. 

I gave her a small smile before I went to get something to eat from the kitchen. A few minutes later, I came back to Terry fast asleep. 

I slowly tip-toed over to her bed before I carefully climbed onto it. I then pressed my body against hers, hearing her let out a small sigh of happiness. "Mate." I heard her mumble that word. I laid my head down on the pillow before I closed my eyes, falling into a deep sleep with her.
