Duck Drama

Chapter 36- Zehra

Everyone nods and walks off, leaving me alone.

Finally...

I look up to the sky- IS IT SUNSET ALREADY?! 

This... was a horrible 2 days.

Day one, I get raped by Liam. That night, I only have 2 hours of sleep. Then, I go to a mission and find my sister is gone! I lose my friend. I lost control of the experiment, I hurt Louie, and made Huey hate me even more.

There's so much I have to do! 

I have to bring Athena back, I have to make sure Auntie Beakley is okay, I need to find Louie before he gets himself killed, I need to get on the good side of the McDucks, and I need to apologize to everyone for the trouble I caused...

"Alright, guys." Everyone looks at Matt. "Let's get some sleep... today's been-" He looks at me. "- rough."

The girls start to go inside, but me, Dewey, and Matt wait outside.

"What about you?" I ask Matt.

He shrugs. "Well, I'm not wanted here, so I'll go back to F.O-"

"No." Dewey cuts him off. "You can stay. We have a dozen or so Scrooge is coming back around... midnight, I'll explain everything to him. He's not cruel. He won't wake up children and send them home in the middle of the night. I promise."

Matt looks hesitant, but I grab his hand and pull him inside. 

---LATER---

I can't sleep. Dewey gave me my own room and told me that I need rest.

I can't! 

All I can think about was the rape, Liam's dead body, how I lost control... and the hurt look on Louie's face.

I feel the burning of the tears again. 

I turn in bed, trying to thinking and sleep.

'Would he mind..?'

He did say if I need anything to wake him up...! 

But is it wrong?

It seems selfish...

It's either that, or I won't be able to sleep.

I get off my bed and make my way to Dewey's room. It's a good thing I feel into it when we first met. I remember where it is.

I open his door and I see a triple bunk bed. The missing one on the ground is Louie's, and it's empty... Snores come from the top one, and I already know that's not Dewey. He must be on the middle one. 

I step over things I could trip over such as a skateboard, paper, etc. I slowly climb the ladder and get on the bed.

Dewey looks so peaceful... 

'Sorry Dew...'

I shake him and whisper his name. But he doesn't wake up... I shake harder. Nope. He's out like a light.

After thinking and watching him for a good 3 minutes, I go under the covers with him and wrap my arms around him, hiding my head in his back.

DEWEY POV

I wake up to feel arms holding me. It feels like Zehra... but I'm too tired to be sure. I turn my head around and see her trying to sleep.

I sit up. "Zehra?" I whisper. 

She sits up too and smiles sheepishly at me. 

"What are you doing here?" I whisper. 

She plays with her fingers as she talks. "I-"
