The only one
A/N: I apologize for the content of this chapter, but 16carkim and I were having a conversation and I figured why not write a chapter about abs? So this happened. Anyway, enjoy or not read the chapter.
Sandy's POV
'It's now or never.' I thought, hearing him walk out of the bathroom. "Shadow."
"Yes, Frau." He answered, opening one of the drawers.
I wasn't even looking at him, yet I was getting flustered by the minute. "Can I…touch your abs?"
Unfortunately, I mumbled the last part because he stepped over to me, questioning, "What was that last part?"
"Let me touch your abs." I blurted, sitting up, while red stained my cheeks.
Stretching, he replied, "I don't see any problem with it. After all, I didn't feel like going out today."
Flipping him next to me, much to his surprise, he shifted lightly and noticed my hands trembling. "Nervous?"
"No." I answered, pressing my hands on his chest and tracing every curve. I swallowed the lump building in my throat at realizing his six pack.
'It's…it's wonderful, how come I never noticed before?' I asked myself, stopping at him waist. Looking at his face, I smiled at seeing his redder than mine.
"Get…off." He breathed out hoarsely, resting his head against the pillow. I laughed and let him up, as he said, "This is the only time I'll allow that, well unless you ask."
Rubbing the back of my head, I chuckled nervously, replying, "Sure, it's cute when you blush."
"We've been over this, never call me cute."
"It's true." I protested, clasping my hands. Feeling an oddly familiar presence, the next thing I saw was darkness along with Shadow calling me.
It's snowing, and there's blood. So much blood, why are people yelling? All I can see is a castle and light, it's beautiful. But why does it feel like I'm changing?
"Sandy, wake up, you're scaring everyone."
Focusing my eyes on her, I sat up, asking, "What happened?"
Ma smiled sadly, replying, "You blacked out and your eyes were glowin'. Are you…having visions?"
"No, at least I don't think so." I said, looking at her.
She fiddled with her hands, replying, "It'll be okay." I nodded as she stood and left.
I jumped at feeling a hand on my forehead obscuring half of my vision, relaxing at knowing it was Shadow, I said, "Now that I think about it, I told you what happened to me with my uncle. So how did you get your scars?"
Removing his hand, he replied, "You black out and that's the first thing you ask me. Fine, I…I got them from my mother. Every single one you see, she broke me in the worst way possible." Taking my hand, he continued, "I despised coming home, I thought no one could ever love someone as broken as I am. So thank you."
Clutching me, he started shaking; hugging him back I put my head in the crook of his neck. Waking up, I scanned the room and exhaled letting my guard down. I wonder what she meant by having visions? It felt like a dream, maybe I am going crazy.
A/N: Once again, I apologize for the beginning but it was worth it. Any questions you'd like me to answer? Review please.
