She ran to her room as she slammed the door shut. She leaned on the door, as she pressed her aback against it , then she went down to the floor.
She bawled as heavy tears fell down her cheek.
What's going on? Ttt..hat sound . ...She stuttered .
Ttt..that's the exact sound I heard last night, was he in pain? Didn't I do my duty properly?
She sounded so scared, age trebles with dear as she buried her face in between her legs, she held her knee to her chest abs cried non stop
What went wrong? Why was he in so much pain ?
She didn't know why but it hurt her deeply each time she heard those groans, he was in pain but didn't want me to see that.
Just then she remembered she saw the sudden change in his eyes, how was he able to change his lovely eyes into a dark and ugly one?
What was he? She thought. After a while she went to her bed and laid down. With thoughts still flowing through her mind.. she dozed off .
(Pants)
There was a dark room, a candle was lit up at a corner, one could barely see anything in the room.
Where I'm i? Jenna looked around but could see nothing.
A woman with silver long hair, appeared in the dark.
Jenna stepped backwards in fear, the woman wasn't old , she was in her 40s, she was extremely beautiful but scary looking.
Ww..who are you? She stuttered as she struggled seeing in the dark.
You don't know me Sugar Bear, but I do know you. You can never know me except I show my whole body to you. She said with a serious voice.
Her forehead shone bright and Jenna saw what made her jaw dropped. She saw the burning skull . That was the exact tattoo Arnold had at his arm.
She thought as she looked strangle at it. The lady forehead was seen but her face wasn't.
The lady walked slowly to Jenna as she screamed with fear.
Don't come any closer, stay away from mm..me.. her voice quavered as she walked backwards without looking back.
Please don't hurt me, don't kill me! P..please! Please!!!.
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! She screamed really loud.
Arnold rushed in on her, he knocked from outside.
Are you okay I'm there? He waited for her response.
She slowly walked to the door and opened it .. she saw him standing before her.
She panted heavily as if she just ran a race.. Mm..ister Arnold... ttt..he skull, the tattoo, the silver headed lady, the scary look! Everything! Popped up visible in her head as she hugged Arnold tight.
I..I..I'm scared.. she held him even tighter .
Arnold couldn't understand what happened to her, he heard her scream. Who was trying to hurt her? He thought.
Was it because I yelled at her?
You had a nightmare, didn't you?
He asked as his eyes searched the room.
She nodded and sobbed, she continued to cry.
It was a..a ss..cary one.. she looked up to him with those teary eyes . She looked really scared and to top it up she was sweating.
It's all a nightmare and nothing more.. he let her hugged him as he fixed his eyes directly at something, he was in deep thoughts.
He patted her head and gently drew her out of his embrace and made her faced him.
Tears ran down her cheek as she looked away. He shouldn't see her cry! . She thought.
Arnold studied her face.. then he said .
Are you okay now? He asked which she nodded in response.
Okay, go back to bed, it's late. He turned around and was about leaving the room.
Would she be all alone here? What if that lady appeared in her dream again? No..no, I can't stay here alone. Not tonight. She thought as she ran and wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his back.
Arnold was utterly surprised seeing her hugged him the way she did.
She spoke before he could say anything. Please stay with me.. she paused.
Jj..just for tonight. She continued. Please. She then released her arms she wrapped around him.
Arnold slowly turned around to ace her. She stared into his eyes, that cold dark look completely disappeared, he wore a different calm look she had never seen.
Please stay with me.. she repeated, she she hoped and prayed he'd agree.
She looked into his eyes to check if it darkened. But no ..it didn't. It was completely normal.
Arnold nodded, then he turned to close the door, and straightly walked to the bed. He sat upright on the bed leaning his head on the wall with his arm placed on it.
Jenna didn't want to make him uncomfortable so she walked to the red couch beside the window and laid down.
She felt save and protected, because she had Arnold there with her. She believed even if the lady appeared to her, Arnold would scare her away with his fierce look.
Arnold sat upright, he thought of the nightmare she must have had that made her so scared.
Jenna didn't know when she dozed off .
The curtains on the window wasn't that wide. strong wind blew the curtains, and this made Jenna shivered, as she put her arms across her chest.
She was still in deep sleep but she could still move her legs to her chest as she shuddered.
Arnold stared at her from where he sat, for a while, before going out of the bed.
He quietly moved to the couch she laid on and then stared at her.
He gently carried her from the couch, he carried her 'princess style' in his arms, her soft , delicate legs fell on his arm.
Then she mumbled something.. Thank you for staying with me..
Arnold peered down to her face and let out a short silent laugh.
He carried her to the bed and laid her sweetly tucked her in. He readjusted the big pillows as he carefully placed her head on it.
He then moved over to the other side of the bed and laid there.
He sat upright, still thinking about what happened earlier on. Just then, she turned to face him. She was still fast asleep, and Arnold couldn't help but stare at her, he noticed how beautiful she was. From her beautiful brown hair, to her nice shaped brows, then to her long lashes that was now wet from crying, it fell on her lid.
His eyes went down to her small attractive lips, it was almost the shape of a heart.
She was so beautiful while she slept. He thought.
He adjusted, and then he laid down and had a trip to dreamy land.
They were extremely really close as their skin touched.
Jenna rolled to the other edge of the bed where Arnold laid.
Arnold was half awake it he felt the movement in the movements made on the bed.
He then turned to see her so closed to him, she kept her hand on his arm and placed her head on his chest. Her eyes were still closed, she didn't know what she was doing, she looked so innocent as her eyes were closed.
Arnold slowly opened his eyes to see the little shy girl in his body. He didn't want to wake her up, because, she had a rough night, he thought if he woke her up it might be difficult fir her to go back to sleep cos of the nightmare she had.
So he allowed her stayed on him.
He slipped his hands to the other side as he held her waist and brought her completely into his embrace.
