She Must Suffer

Chapter 7 Nightmare

"Alena........Alena answer me........" I stay quite because I know I'm not alone. I know he's in here. But where. If I say anything to her, he would hear and may kill me first. "Alena it's not funny any mo-" "I have to go, I'm not sure I'll be able to make the -" I start to say but it goes black. Can't see a thing, or hear anything besides my horror screams.

"Alena.....wake up....Alena" I hear a voice say. This voice I reckonize. Adam. It was Adam. But what did he mean by wake up. Wasn't I up. Isn't Joseph here. Wasn't I on the phone with my best friend. I feel someone shaking me. Someone is screaming. But who. I'm starting to get confuse. "A, please open your eyes." I do what the voice tells me.

When I open my eyes I relize that I was safe. I was the one screaming. But why. Everything is vibrating. "Baby are you ok? Your shaking. Do you need some water?" Adam asked me getting out the bed, putting on his boxers. I gasped and looked under the blanket. We did it, and I'm happy about it. Smiling to myself, Adam comes back with a glass in his hand. I took the glass and drunk some water. When I was done I put it on the floor. Getting out of the bed to put some clothes on I asked Adam "what happened?"

It's too dark in here for me to find my clothes, so I picked up what ever was on the floor. "By the way, I think I have your botten up." After putting on underwear, a bra, and his botten up shirt, Adam had his hands out. I climbed in his lap, laid my head on his chest. He pulled the blanket over him and me. "Well, as you know we had sex. But after that we talked for a bit and then fell asleep. Then you were screaming, crying in your sleep. Saying help me, don't, I'm sorry." He paused shaking his head. "So I was trying to wake you up, but you were out of it." Adam said continuing.

I felt bad. My eyes were starting to get watery. I started to wipe my eyes. I breathe in and out. Adam started to rock me back and forth. I kissed his neck, and up till I reached his lips. "Thank you" I said. He rubbed my back and said "try to go back to sleep. Love you" I shook my head and laid my head back on his chest. After whispering I love you too, to Adam, he started humming the song my mom use to sing when we were kids.

Maybe life is not as bad as I thought. Seeing Adam for the first time in for ever was.......something. I couldn't really sleep last night, after my nightmare. But to know that Adam's arms were around me, that he was there to protect me in my sleep. Was heaven. Before my nightmare.......I don't know what happened. At first it was soft, sweet, loving like he cared for me, like he would never let me go. But then it changed to anger. Like he was upset that I wasn't with him all those years. And me, taking it out. Letting all my anger out. Then again it changed. It slowed. Felt like I was an ocean, swaying back and forth. Never felt this way before.....and maybe never again. As long as Joe is still out there. Who knows when is my last.
