Staying with Shawn

                                    

                                          
I wake up in a hospital bed and sit up. "Oh sweetie are ok? Don't try to move too much. I look down at my bandaged wrists. "Honey listen, you were raped we allowed the doctors to swab around your vaginal area. They arrested Jackson and Zoe you won't be seeing them for a while. The doctor said you can go home tomorrow, you will have to be careful with your wrists. We would have to change it every night after you shower." I look around the room. "Where's Shawn?" I ask, needing the urge to see him. "He's in the hall." I weakly get out of bed ignoring my parents plea for me to stay in bed. I take my IV with me out in the hall and I see Shawn sitting in the hall his hands covered in blood, in my blood. His hair is all over the place and his face is wet from tears. "Sh-Shawn?" He looks up at me and gets up instantly. "What are you doing out of bed?" He catches me before I fall. "Ms. Reed there you are you shouldn't be out of bed right now, you lost a lot of blood." My nurse guides me back to my room, this time Shawn followed. Shawn helps the nurse get me back in bed. "Looks like it's time to get you a new IV. I will be right back." Sits next to my bed after cleaning his hands off. He rests a hand over mine. "Ray honey let's go grab a coffee real quick." Dad shrugs clueless about what mom is trying to do. "Ok." I watch them leave and it's just us two in the room. "I thought I lost you, you have no idea how scared I was. Storm, I'm so sorry, this is all my fault I should have kept you company knowing you were going to be alone." I shake my head. "It's not your fault you didn't know." He fiddles with my hand and surprises me when he kisses it. It felt like sparks shooting in my hand. "I can't lose you." I pull away. "Shawn what are you doing?" He removes his hand from mine. "Nothing, I just... it's... I'm really glad you're ok." I nod. "Ok." He groans. "Fuck it." Before I could ask he clash his lips onto mine. Our lips move in sync fireworks explode throughout my body. I never felt this feeling before even when I was with Jackson I felt nothing. He pulls away his cheeks are pink and puffy as he catch his breath. "Like I said before, I can't lose you." He sits back in his chair legs sprawled out and leaning back. My parents come back in mom smiling. "So what are you two talking about?" I blush feeling Shawn's eyes intensely on me. "Nothing." I look over at him he has a slight smirk on his face. "I was thinking she could stay with me for the week I called in for the week that way she has company while the two of you worked." Mom clasps her hands together. "That is a wonderful idea! What do you think honey?" Dad shrugs. "Sure, that's if Storm is ok with that?" I nod. "Yes. I don't mind." The nurse comes back with a new IV bag and swaps it out. "Shawn will you be staying with her tonight?" He nods. "Ok see you two tomorrow then." I look at Shawn. "Is it Halloween still?" He laughs. "No, you've been out since yesterday. Are you cold?" I huff rubbing my arms feeling the goosebumps form. "A little bit." He shrugs his jacket off and set it on the chair, he takes his shoes off and set them aside. He pulls back the blanket and lays next to me. He holds me close, his body already warming me up. "Am I hurting you?" I shake my head no. "I am getting sleepy again though." His hands trail up and down my body. With each stroke his hands send sparks. "You should sleep."
Shawn helps me up out the bed. The doctors took my IV out. "You got it?" I nod. He holds my hand tight making sure I don't fall. "Here wear my jacket, it's cold outside." While I was sleeping Shawn left to go to my parents boys to pack some of stuff for the week and took it to his house. "I can walk in my own." He lets go of me. We get to the parking lot and to his black jeep, the cool air kiss my skin. I get in the care and the radio plays. Shawn shuts the door and gets in on the other side. "Are you hungry? I can stop somewhere to get you something to eat." I shake my head. "I'm not hungry, I just want to go." He nods. "Ok." On the drive to his home the ride is silent, his hand rest on my thigh rubbing it gently. "Can you stop? I'm sorry that came out harsh. It's just... being touched right now is...it's..." he removes his hand and place it back on the steering wheel. "It's ok, I get it." His grip on the steering wheel tightens as he curse under his breath. I feel bad, he thinks this whole thing is his fault no matter how much I try to reassure him that it wasn't his fault. He parks and gets out. I look across the street at my parents house, the lot is empty meaning they're at work or mom is home and the car is in the garage. Shawn helps me out the car and we go inside. "I collected everything sharp in the house so you can't harm yourself. I also took away any medication that was in the house so you don't try to kill yourself by overdosing. I took the lock off the guest bedroom as well." He's thought of everything. "Thank you." He nods. "I will give you your meds later after you eat." His hands go around my waist and I quickly move out his grip. "N-n..." I can't finish my sentence. Why can't I say no it's easy. "It's ok, say no." I wipe the tears that are falling. "I can't he... he hurt me. I didn't have a choice and Zoe she..." I breakdown in tears. "I know, the doctors found splinters in your vaginal area. She penetrated you with a-" I stop him. "No don't say it. Don't say it, don't say it." I scratch at my arm panicking. "Storm, Storm baby, look at me, look at me." He called me baby. "You're safe, take deep breathes." I do what he instructs. "Good girl, do you want to watch tv?" I shake my head. "Ok, what do you want to do?" I blush. "Carry me to my room and hold me." He nods. "Ok." He bends and lifts me up in his arms, I bury my face in his neck tears falling again. "I got you, I won't let anything else happen to you." He whispers sweet nothings to me as we cuddle in bed.
