Ok, I'm sorry guys, there was an error brought to my attention by xX The Sexy Beauty Xx, and I fixed it. I'm sorry, please don't eat me!

I woke up to a strange warmth enveloping me, and within it, the comfort of a beating heart. I welcomed it, turning to face it, and buried my face in it. A deep humming ensued, as if in comfort. Then I heard a whimper.

I reached up and petted her head, "Venus, quiet. Let me sleep a bit more." I realized that she was pretty scruffy for a short-haired dog.

I heard her whimper again. I opened my eyes to find a half-naked man holding me. I stared at his chest in sleepy confusion. Bruises and cuts were heavily sprinkled on his muscular chest and abdomen.

'Raphael?' Hope raised within my chest as I looked up to see a sleeping face. My hand in his blonde hair. I sighed in disappointment, not brunette. 'Oh, that's right, I remember now, Nathan. That's right, yeah.' Then I hear another whimper, it's Nathan.

It's normal, not fun, but normal for him to have nightmares, flashbacks, worst-case scenarios. The road to recovery is worse mentally than physically. 'Tonight was my first night without those nightmares since…' I snuggled closer to the trembling Nathan, wishing instead for the steady hands of my dear friend.

Nathan had tightened his grip on me considerably. I reached around and started rubbing his back, remembering those lonely nights. I hummed a tune, then gently sung my favorite lullaby, "Hush little baby". Even though it felt strange because he was about the same age as me.

As I did, his grip weakened and he snuggled closer. Alarm bells rang inside me, this was too intimate of a moment for me, and too soon, with someone I barely knew, whose heart I knew too well. By the fourth verse his grip was loose enough for me to move. When I moved his grip immediately tightened, like he might drift away.

I stopped singing and whispered in his ear, "I'm not going anywhere. Come on, let go, I need to get up."

To my relief, he finally let go. I separated myself from him, and replaced myself with the gray, fluffy body pillow I usually slept with.

Venus, who was on the foot of the bed, stared at Nathan a bit more and whined.

"Are you jealous? Are you jealous that the naked man stole your spot?" I cooed at her.

With wiggles and whines, she answered in her own way.

I crouched down and ruffled her ears, "How about I make up for it, we go make the naked man do something fun?"

Whiney barks gave me her agreement. I laughed at her eagerness when Nathan turned over in his sleep.

Venus and I looked at each other, I put my finger to my lips, "Shh! The naked man is sleeping. Let's go get your reward for yesterday." Then I headed to the kitchen to make breakfast.

…

I had just finished the last sandwich when a sleepy Nathan stumbled in, rubbing his eyes

"Where am I?" He asked, sitting at the table.

"Sweet Amoris, but not the same Amoris. I abducted you and traveled ten thousand years into the future. Earth has ended, and you are the last male alive. You are to impregnate every woman alive and able to bear children." I explained, putting his food in front of him.

"Starting with me." I whispered sweetly into his ear. I stood behind him and started rubbing my hands across his chest, pressing my DD-cup bosom against the back of his head.

He stood up, and left the room.

I died, I could not stop laughing. I was rolling on the floor in my joy when Nathan came back.

"That was not funny." He said, pointing an accusing finger at me.

"Yes, it was." I managed to say, attempting to recover my composure.

"No, it wasn't. It was weird, and disturbing." He said this, but he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

"It was and you know it." I said simply.

'Being able to laugh and smile is what he needs most right now, I can't let him think about what happened.' I thought to myself as I smirked at him.

"So, Nathan, all I know about you is your name. That, and that you slept with me last night." I smirked at him, "I had to peel you off of me this morning."

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize-" he started, blushing profusely.

I laughed, "No, you're fine, I was just poking fun. Besides, it was comfy, and it was nice to wake up to a man's chest." I grabbed my plate of food and sat down across from him, "Speaking of which," I pointed at his still visible six-pack, "nice abs."

"How many times do you plan to embarrass me?" He asked, his face as red as rubies.

"As many time as I want." I said, sticking my tongue out, as I filled Venus' bowl with kibble covered in the leftover bacon grease and bacon bits.

"Ha ha, you're so childish." He lightly chuckled.

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, yeah, and you're so mature, loosen up, you're still only, what, fifteen?"

"Sixteen." He finished.

"Exactly," I pointed out, "you're at the peak of your teen years. This is the time to be silly, make mistakes, and act stupid, because you can't in the real world."

"Ok, fine, you have a point." He smiled.

"So, tell me about yourself." I said, getting to the point.

He poked at his food before asking me, "Ok, but first, what is this?"

"It's an Ultimate Grilled Cheese. It's a grilled cheese with a fried egg and a piece of bacon in it. It's really good, try it." I urged him as I took a bite of my own.

He took a bite and his eyes lit up, "Wow, that's really good. I haven't had a home cooked meal this good in a while. I usually just eat a bowl of cereal or eat something from the cafeteria."

"That's not healthy. No wonder why you're so skinny." I joked at him. "So, tell me more."

"About what?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"What else? You're gonna be living with me, I want to know who I'm living with." I told him, taking another bite.

"What do you want to know?" He asked with a full mouth, something I never expected from the straight-laced boy.

"Don't talk with your mouth full." I reprimanded him, "I want to know as much as you will let me know; siblings, age, grade, what you like to do, what you don't, the important stuff like allergies, that's what I want to know."

"Um, ok. I guess I'll start with the basics." He said before polishing off his sandwich.

"I have a twin sister, Amber. I love being organized, studying, mind games and crime novels. I dislike unmotivated, undisciplined people, and sweets. I'm allergic to pollen. I'm also a sophomore in school, a straight-A student, valedictorian, student body president." He paused, the next thing he said he admitted hesitantly, glancing at Venus, "I'm, ah, kind of, um, afraid of dogs. I love cats though."

I stared at him, "So, you're a nerd, without taste buds, a total buzz kill, afraid of someone that saved your ass, and there's another one just like you?"

"Ha ha, you sound just like Castiel. I really hope you're not a delinquent too." He laughed sarcastically, smiling, raising an eyebrow at me.

'He looks kind of hot like that, the 'I-don't-believe-you-but-it's-funny' look is really hitting the spot. Wait, what the hell am I thinking' I was mentally slapping myself across the face.

"Nope, all A's and B's. Hey look, you're finally loosening up, although I wish your table manners stay intact when you do." I said smiling at him, "Ok, let me call my buddy to get you some clothes. Meanwhile, put your dishes in the sink and get in the shower, we're gonna go somewhere."

"Ok, and hey," He called my attention, "thanks. If there's any way I can help you, let me know."

"There is, go get rid of that stink. Go take a shower!" We laughed together before he went to the bathroom.

I started washing the dishes as I called the number Lysander gave me when we talked earlier.

After a few rings a voice answered, "Hello, this is Leigh."

"Ah yes, this is the bank, your account has just been deleted, all your funds have been lost. We are very sorry, no refunds can be made." I said in the most business like tone I could without laughing.

"WHAT! I paid the rent last week! I'm on time with my bills! Let me talk to the manager, now!" Leigh went from panicking to angry very fast.

"Sir, please calm down, do you know who you are speaking to?" I asked him, barely suppressing my giggles.

"Why the hell should I care?!" He yelled at me.

"Because the girl that hid under your bed for weeks at a time needs clothes." I said, finally giggling under my breath.

"Huh? Girl that... what?" He asked, extremely confused.

I sighed, "Annie." I mumbled.

"What! Annie! Hey, how have you been? Why the hell would you do that to me?!" His mood swings still swinging at full force.

"Because I knew you would only remember me as Annie, and you know I hate the nickname, out of everything you could of called me." I said blandly.

"Ok, whatever. So, you said you needed clothes, are you gonna be my model again?" He asked.

"No, it's for a boy." I explained lightly.
