You Belong Here - Part 2

It had been a week since Marc had taken you, you were still to meet Jake and Steven.
Marc said he wanted to ease you into everything. You were having a rather bad night, you were fast asleep on your bed curled up.
But you were softly sobbing in your sleep.
Marc was about to go to bed and decided to check on you first.
He opened the door to see all of your sheets on the floor.

"Y/N?" He whispered stepping in to see you curled up in a ball and crying.
He knelt beside your bed and shook your shoulder a little as you woke up in a fright and screamed.

"It's okay! It's just me sweetie." He said as you began to cry even more.
You screamed and gripped your head before you started hitting yourself.

"No, stop!" Marc said as he got up onto your bed and grabbed your wrists stopping you from hurting yourself.

"Stop! I don't want to! Stop!" You screamed as loud as you could, Marc wrapped his arms around you and held you tightly as you screamed.

"Let me go!" You screamed as he closed his eyes trying to not let himself cry.

"It's okay Y/N!" He shouted over your screams as you began hitting his chest, you finally broke free and made a break for the front door.
You made it to the door and tried to open it but it was bolted shut from the inside.
You bashed your hands against the door and screamed.

"Love, it's alright." You heard a British voice say as you sobbed and looked behind. He looked different now, his face softer.

"I know you're scared love, but I promise you're not going to be hurt. I won't even come near you if you don't want. I can just sit right here and we can talk." He said sitting on the floor about six feet in front of you.
You had stopped screaming so that was a good sign. You sat on the floor with your back to the door.

"I'm Steven, I've heard a lot about you. Marc's told me how wonderful you are." He said as you hugged your knees to your chest, your cries starting to slow down.

"I'm Y/N." You whispered not looking up at him.

"It's wonderful to meet you. How about I make us some tea? We can watch a movie until you feel better." He suggested as you nodded a little, you both stood up but you stayed in your spot.

"Can I have a hot chocolate?" You asked making him smile.

"Of course angel. If you'd like you can go sit down and pick a movie, I'll get start on the hot chocolate okay?" He said softly as you nodded and shuffled over to the lounge.
While Steven made a tea for himself and a hot chocolate for you.
You were sat on the lounge tucked into the corner while a Disney movie played on the tv.
Steven placed your hot chocolate in front of you on the coffee table before he sat on the other side of the couch.
He knew he needed to give you space. He also decided he should keep quiet for now and let you talk whenever you wanted to.
After about forty minutes you had finished your hot chocolate and Steven looked over to see you fast asleep against the couch.
He smiled softly and turned the tv off before getting a blanket for you and covering you with it.
He grabbed a pillow from his room and slept on the floor near the couch, he knew he shouldn't leave you alone.

The next morning Marc woke up in the body, he looked up to see you weren't on the couch and quickly panicked.

"Y/N!" He shouted getting up and running around the apartment trying to find you.
He stood in the kitchen, he was close to a panic attack when he heard a small noise coming from the pantry.
He opened it to see you sitting in the bottom with your knees hugged to your chest and your head rested on a pillow beside you.
The pantry wasn't exactly big, he didn't know how you had fit in there.

"Why is she in there?" He muttered looking down at you.

"You remember all those times when your mother would have a bad night. You would hide anywhere you could just to feel safe. She doesn't feel safe here yet so I suppose this was the next best thing." Steven said making Marc sigh softly.

"I just wish she would feel safe." Marc whispered before he knelt down and looked at your sleeping face.

"Sweetie." He whispered placing his hand on your knee. You groaned and slowly opened your eyes looking at him.
Suddenly your eyes widened and you pushed him away scattering away like a terrified kitten.
You ran to your room and slammed your door sitting against it.
Maybe Steven would be better at coaxing you out, but Marc needed to get used to it.
And make sure you felt safe with him and not just Steven.
He knew he needed to be soft with you so he sat on the other side of the door.

"Y/N, I know you're afraid. And that's okay, you're allowed to feel whatever you need to. I know it will take a while but this place is safe, it may seem scary now but I promise everything we're doing is to keep you safe. The last thing any of us want is for you to go missing or get hurt. Even if you disobeyed us or made a mistake we wouldn't hurt you, we would talk and understand why you did it. All of this is new to you and I understand you think that every touch you get will be a punishment because that's how it's always been for you. But it's not true. We will respect you sweetheart and we would never force you to hug us or do anything you weren't comfortable with. We can even talk about getting some things for your room, whatever you'd like so you feel like you can make this place your home." He said in a calm tone. Everything went silent for a moment before he heard your door open.
He looked behind to see you standing above him with a red tear stained face.
He stood up and looked down at you, he wanted to wipe away your tears but he knew he needed to go slow with all of this.
You stepped forward and cautiously wrapped your arms around him. He smiled and slowly wrapped his arms around you in return.

"Can I touch your hair sweetie?" He whispered as you nodded a little. He ran his hand through your hair as you felt yourself beginning to calm down.

"I'm tired." You whispered as you slowly pulled away.

"Why don't I tuck you in and you have a nap? It was a big night." He suggested as you nodded and walked back into your room.
You climbed into your bed and Marc picked up the sheets and blankets from the floor before placing them over you.

"Just come and get me if you need anything okay?" He whispered as you nodded, he was about to leave before you grabbed his hand.

"Can you kiss me goodnight?" You whispered making him smile, he knelt down and kissed your forehead softly.

"Goodnight sweetheart."
