A/N: I'm sorry this chapter is short.

-Cami's P.O.V.-

I woke up and found that I was still in Derick's room. My whole body ached. Slowly I sat up swing my legs off the bed and noticed the cast on my right forearm.

"Where do you think your going" said a voice from behind me causing me to jump. Looking behind me I see Derick laying on the other side of the bed.

"Um...I don't know." My voice was cracky. It sounded like shit. Derick sat up slightly and leaned on his arm.

"Would you like a drink?" I knodded my head. He gave a small smile and got up.

"Can I come with you, please?" I asked too scared to be by myself. He knodded and took my left hand leading me out of the room.

As we walked down the hall I noticed how big his house was. The moon lit the hall so there was no need to turn the lights on. Derick continued to leaned me down the stairs turning the corner to a huge kitchen. I gasped and he chuckled as he flipped the light switch on.

"Water?" He asked. I knodded as he grabbed a glass and filled it with water from the door on the fridge. Derick handed me the glass and I slowly sipped it. I lowered the glass from my mouth.

"Does my mom know?" I asked sheepishly as I slide up onto a stool. He knodded. "Then why am I still here?"

"So my mom can continue to look after you and because...um because of what you said to me." He looked away from me and opened the fridge.

"What did I say to you?" He stopped and sighed.

"Don't leave me, please." He responsed. I can feel my face heat up and I look away. Instead of looking at him, I look at the glass in front of me on the counter. His hand pulls my chin so I'm looking at him. My eyes begin to water and I can feel a tear slide down my cheek. Derick wipes the tears away.

"I'm sorry." I whimper. He shakes his head.

"It's not your fault, Cami. I won't leave you. I won't let anything happen again." Derick said. "Come on let's go back to bed."

"I don't want to. The nightmares are horrid. I relive it every time my eyes close." I sob. He pulls me into his embrace.

"Okay then let's go back up to my room and watch what ever you want. Okay?" I knodded. Derick picked me up and carried me upstairs. He placed me carefully on his bed. "What do you wanna watch?" He asked turning on his TV and clicking on Netflix.

"Doctor Who." I reply.

"Never heard of it."

"Gasp! Its the best show ever! Give me the remote." I exclaim taking the remote from him and clicking on season 1 episode 1 of the 2005 series.

"Is it geeky?" I punch him in the arm.

"No its not 'geeky' its cool!" I exclaim. Within 3 episodes he's completely into it and I'm falling asleep. My eyes are closed and my breathing is slowed I'm right on the brink of falling asleep when I feel Derick behind me.

"Sweet dreams, Baby Girl. I swear I won't let anything bad happen to you again." I felt him kiss me on the forehead and I drifted into a light dreamless sleep.
