*Erik's Pov*
I started to shift in my sleep because I was uncomfortable. I started to hear a sound of gaging. My body shot up and saw the light on. Aw my poor baby. I got out of bed just in my boxers and walked into the bathroom and kneeled down on the floor. She tried to nudge me away but was unsuccessful. I started to rub her back in smooth circles. When she was done I flushed the toilet for her. She walked out of the bathroom and took her shirt off then face planted on the bed. I immediately got her some water and Advil and placed it on the nightstand. I grabbed a pair of sweatpants and put them on then got up on the bed and rested my back against the backboard. She looked like she had something on her mind and it wasn't something minor either I can tell. "What's on your mind darling?" I asked her. "Its nothing" She replied with. "It's obviously something.." I responded

She sighed in defeat.
"Logan and Scott mainly Logan,that if I didn't sleep with you eventually you would leave. She croaked. I can't believe them. "You don't believe them do you?"I asked worryingly. "Of course not. I know you're not an animal." She said giving me some relief. "It was just something that lingered,I had issues as you know in my past Erik.." She said sadly. "But I am not them and I would never do that to you,I would never pressure you into anything you don't want to do.I don't care if you don't want to do anything until after marriage,regardless if we do anything at all,its obvious you are not ready and I would never ever hold that against you." After I said that I took a deep breath. "You wanna marry me?" She asked with laugh. "Well I intend to one day." "Well thank you,I didn't need an explanation I trust you." She responded making me smile.

*Ashton's Pov*
We were sitting in silence but,it was comfortable silence. Then somebody charged through the door banging two frying pans. It was Charles. My head started pounding. I jumped up from my spot on the bed and screamed in Charles face. I was about to do it again before Erik dragged me back by my bra wire. "I hate you." I pouted and laid on Erik's chest. "I love you too" he spoke and gave me a kiss on my forehead.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You can do it Ashton I believe in you" Charles kept repeating over and over to me. The current situation was,charles trying to get me to focus on my vibrations that come from my sonic scream and make them come out of my hands. I wanted to believe in myself but all the confidence I have had in the past,for some reason was not there this time. "Just focus". I took a deep breath, and faced my hands toward the ground,I felt my body get lifted unexpectedly and revoked my hands and fell on my knee. "Dammit." I mumbled. "Good try,we are done for----"I cut him off. "I am not done I am going for a run,clear my head." I told him and jogged off. I do not know what is wrong with me lately. I know I am not depressed something about this day feels off. I started jogging even harder by now almost like a full on marathon. Luckily, I was sweating and the tears I didn't know were coming weren't noticeable. Suddenly, memories started flashing through my mind and thoughts....and became too much I fell to the ground holding my head. I let out a blood hurdling scream. Charles,Erik and Scott came running outside. They were talking but it was all muffled. "Char--charlie,make it stop someone is in my head"I managed to get out of my mouth. It was getting bad now,Charles was trying but unsuccessful. I could hear the frequency,it was coming from in the water. I tried my best and walked over to the railing. "Cover..your ears.." I whispered. I

I screamed very very loud. Finally they stopped. "What happened?" Scott asked Charles who was going through my mind and I winced. "Shaw..." I heard Charles whisper. I knew what that meant for Erik. Erik ran over to the water and jumped in. "Ashton don't do it." Charles warned me as I jumped in after Erik. I starting swimming towards Erik he had his hand up trying to reach the submarine. I wrapped my body around him trying to pull him up. "Erik stop now or you are going to die,I know what this means to you,Erik I love you please let go we will find another way these are Ashton's words not mine." Charles words rang in our head. He finally gave up in defeat. We reached the surface both of our faces covered with our hair.

"Erik stop."He said trying to get out of my grasp. We got out of the water and he started to walk away. "Erik STOP!" He turned around to look at me. "I can't even begin to understand how this makes you feel,but however I do know that you do regretful things when you are angry,we will find another way so that way you can finally have acceptance." I said and Charles and Scott looked at me baffled. I started walking towards Erik however he filled the gap. "Erik lehnsherr I love you." I whispered in his ear as his lips met mine.
