Reigns

25

I haven't been able to sleep. It's the nightmare and I keep hearing the voice. I was hiding in the corner of my room with a blanket wrapped around me shaking. The door opened and I buried myself deeper into the blanket.

"Baby girl?"

The light cut on making my eyes hurt a little. I looked and dad was standing there. He turned and saw me.

"Oh baby girl."

He came picking me up hugging me tight.

"The voice won't stop daddy. I beg for it to stop, but it won't."

I cried.

"It's okay baby girl. I'm here. Nothing will happen. "

I cried into his shoulder holding him tight.

"Stop crying it's okay."

He pulled away looking at me wiping the tears away.

"Dean and Seth are here you want to see them."

I nodded and got down. I went to my closet and got a random hoodie. I put it on. I walked out and dad was still there. He grabbed my hand and I walked behind him downstairs to the living room.

"Jesse!"

Seth and Dean said and came hugging me.

"You feeling okay? "

Seth asked and I nodded. He smiled.

"I like your hoodie."

Dean said and I looked down seeing it was his.

"I didn't even realize I had got this one."

I sniffed.

"Roman can you go up and check on Jess... of nevermind. Dinner is ready."

I grabbed dad's hand. We all walked in the kitchen. I sat by dad, Jacey sat by Seth, Brody sat by Dean, and mum sat at the end of the table, but it was by dad. We all started eating, but I was picking over my food.

"Jesse you okay?"

Jacey asked.

"Um yeah. Why?"

"It's seriously 70° and you're wearing a hoodie."

"Cold."

I said drinking my apple juice. Everyone sat and talked and I quietly snuck out and back to my room.

Roman's pov
"Jesse have you...where'd she go?"

Jacey asked. We all looked and she wasn't in the chair.

"She moves fast."

She played over her food only eating a little and drunk her apple juice.

"I'll be back. "

I said getting up and walked to her room. I walked in and she was in the corner with her face turned to the wall.

"Baby girl what are you doing?"

She shrugged.

"Turn around. "

She turned around and slid down the wall snuggled into her blanket.
I went picking her up walking to her bed.

"No no no."

She cried. I stepped back and looked at her hold on to me.

"Jesse what's wrong. I make sure to Skype you everyday. What is it?"

"I can't get it to go away."

"What to go away baby girl? Please tell me so I can help you."

"The voice keeps getting louder and louder every time I go near my bed. I just want it to stop."

She said in tears.

"Baby girl what does the voice say?"

She nodded her head frantically.

"It's okay. You don't have to tell me. It will be okay baby."

I said kissing her head.

"I can't sleep. The medicine doesn't work."

I nodded. I sat at the desk chair with her in my lap.

"Baby girl you have to eat. You played over your food."

"To many people."

I grabbed her shaking hands.

"They won't hurt you baby. It's your mom, your sister, your brother, your uncle Dean and Seth. They all love you and wouldn't ever hurt you."

She looked at me.

"Pinky promise? "

I nodded.

"Pinky promise. "

She got up and wiped her face.

"Come on. "

We walked out and went to the kitchen. She sat down and everyone else was in the living room.

"Dad will you watch wrestling with us?"

Brody said walking in.

"Later buddy I'm going to stay..."

"You can go. I want to be alone."

Jesse said.

"Are you sure?"

She nodded. I stood up.

"Come on Brody. "

I said and we walked out.

"Where's Jesse?"

Dean asked.

"Eating. She said she wanted to be alone."

They all nodded and we started to watch the show.

I was walking out to the living room when I heard that familiar voice.

"Anyone but you Roman."

I screamed falling down to my knees.

"Jesse!"

I covered my ears.

"Jesse."

Dad came picking me up.

"That's it. The voice that's it. He kept saying anyone but you."

They all looked around.

"It's okay Jesse he's not going to get anywhere near you. I swear."

Dad said and kissed my head.

"It won't get anywhere near you."

I held on tight to his shirt. He rubbed my head.

"You want to watch the show?"

"Is he gone?"

He nodded.

"Yes he's gone."

I nodded and he helped me up. We went into the living room and I sat on the couch pulling my knees up to my chest. I watched the show until I grew tired. All I remember was laying down on Seth and falling asleep.
