10 as simple as brushing teeth

Katherine

I wake up in a warm embrace. I try to get up to go brush my teeth but the arms only wrap around me tighter.

"i need to brush my teeth"

"i will go with you"

"nash its across the hall i will be fine"

Well i spoke to soon because when i got up i tripped over something and face planted.

"youll be fine huh"

"shut up arsehole"

"you didn't think i was an asshole when you started cuddling me"

"i was vulnerable"

"mhm"

I scoff and go to brush my teeth.

' i am laying in my bedroom from when i was a kid screaming and crying. I want to die, my dad is leaving me and my mom. Its my moms fault too. I mean who cheats on there husband i know it happens all the time but i never thought it would happen to me. She made a vow, she betrayed his trust. I would leave to. It doesnt make it hurt any less though. '

I wake up drenched in sweat and sobbing. I hate being sweaty so i decide to change. I take off my shirt and bra. I look in my closet and find one but as i walk out of the closet nash is standing in the doorway looking right at me. No shirt. No bra.
