He Saved Me

(EDITED)

Athena POV

Flashback

"No, please stop" I screamed at my 'father'.

He laughed as he kept cutting my thigh.

"This is what you get when you disrespect me you whore" he screamed at me.

I was crying begging for him to stop.

My 14 year old self shouldn't be going through this.

"Why are you do-doing thi-this?" I asked while sobbing.

"Why? Why? Because you killed her. It was your fault she's dead" he yelled in my face then punched me.

"Please, stop" I screamed.

"Stop" I screamed again.

I jolted awake and seen Josiah looking at me with a worried expression.

I started crying and he pulled me into his lap and wrapped his arms around my waist trying to get me calm down.

"Are you OK? He asked, I shook my head and snuggled closer to him.

"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked.

I sat up and shrugged.

"All it was, was a memory" I said and looked down.

"A memory of what my 'father' did to me all these years" I said. Josiah tightened his arms around me.

"What did he do to you?" He asked sounding pissed a little bit but not at me.

"I don't want to tell you about it right now" i said, he nodded.

"Tell me when you want to, don't rush." he said while putting a piece of hair behind my ear.

"I love you" he said.

I looked at him and smiled.

"I love you, too" I said.

He leaned in and kissed me.

I looked at the time and seen it was 2:45a.m.

"i'm not going back to sleep anytime soon" I said.

I looked back at Josiah and seen he has a grin on his face.

"Uh oh. What are you thinking?" I asked.

"What do you say, wanna have another round?" he asked smirking.

I know what he's thinking.

I looked at him and smiled while laughing.

I kissed him and he took that as my answer and rolled us over to where he was on top.

You already know what we're doing no need to tell you.

I woke up around 12:40p.m. I looked towards Josiah's side of the bed to see it was empty.

I got up then realized I was still naked so I wrapped the blanket around me and walked to the closet and grabbed underwear, bra, shorts, and a tank top to wear.

Once I was done putting everything on I went to the bathroom and did my business and brushed my hair and teeth.

I put my hair up into a messy bun, usually it doesn't look good but today it does.

I walked to my bedroom door and opened then walked down stairs.

I smelled bacon, hmm, I walked towards the kitchen and I seen Josiah at the stove.
