***************************************************
"Scarlett wake up. Scarlett please wake up" I opened my eyes when I felt someone shaking me. I saw Lucas standing in front of me looking at me. I lunged forward holding on to him so tight. I cried so hard because that felt so real to me.

"Hey it's ok I got you" Lucas said sitting down and pulling me so that I was on his lap straddling him. He said soothing words so that I would calm down. He also was playing with my hair and it was making me stop crying, But I was still scared out of my mind.

Lucas pulled back and put me back into bed. He kissed the top of my head and went to leave but I stopped him. He looked down at me.

"Please stay" I whispered not believing that I just said that. "Ok" he said as he got under the covers. He pulled me closer to his chest and only then did I realize he dose not have a shirt on. Breath Scarlett there's just a really hot guy in your bed no need to worry.

"Go to sleep I'll be here" that made me feel so much better some how. I felt safe with Lucas. I must since I asked him to stay with me. I don't know what it is but I know that he will never hurt me.
