Chapter 7
“What's a petty girl like you doing out here all alone?”A large man said
“I'm not alone, I'm here with someone now back off.” Vera tried to push him away but she found herself to have no strength.
The man started to touch her breasts and move his hand up her dress. She tried to scream but nothing came out; she had no voice.
She hit the man repeatedly but her punches were doing nothing she couldn't get away.
She closed her eyes and opened them again. The man was still there and leaned in to kiss Vera when all the sudden…
Vera quickly woke up and pulled herself into a sitting possession. It was just a dream Vera, calm down. She thought to herself. She looked around in confusion for a few seconds before she remembered that she was at Joan’s. She checked the clock and it was 3am. She decided to get up and make herself a glass of water. While she drank her water she went to the living room and was taking in her surroundings. She saw a picture of what looked to be Joan and her dad. Vera had not heard Joan talk about him much but she knew that he wasn't a very good parent much like her mother.
Vera cleaned out her cup and put it back. When she was headed upstairs she started to go back into her room until she wondered if Joan was awake. Vera walked over to Joans door and gently knocked on her door and whispered “Joan?” She heard slight stirring in her room before a voice called out.
“Yes?” Joan was still half asleep
“Can i come in?” Vera asked
Joan was hesitant at first but then she gave in. “Sure”
Vera walked into Joan's room and it was dark but her eyes soon adjusted to see Joan barley sit up in her bed. The moon light came through the window and landed on Joan. Vera could see she was holding the sheet up to her chest and she could see her bare shoulders. Vera knew she was naked in bed. Vera suddenly felt a sudden embarrassment.
“What is it you need Vera?”
“Well I- I had a nightmare and I can't sleep. I was just wondering if you were up.” Vera peered through the darkness at Joan
“Well I am now, is there something I can get for you?”
“I was wondering if I could get in bed with you? It might help me sleep better. That is of course if you don't mind.” Vera had a shakiness to her voice
Joan didn't know how to answer this question. No one had ever asked her that before. Then again she never really slept or let anyone sleep in her house before.
“I suppose so but I have to put on some clothes. Sorry I sleep in the nude.” Joan said shyly. She started to ask Vera to leave so she could change before Vera stopped her.
“It's ok, I don't mind.” Vera was a little shy. Before Joan could say anything Vera took off her shirt and laid it on the ground. She was now naked with nothing on. Joans eyes widened as she saw Vera’s petite body. Altho it was dark in the room she could see what Vera was doing.
Vera walked over to the bed and slipped under the covers. Joan was confused on what to do. She had never been in an encounter like this.
“Vera, are you sure?”
“Joan if I wasn't sure I wouldn't be here, under the covers right now.”
Joan was tense. She laid back down with the covers pulled over her. They both laid there still as can be. The thought of Vera being in bed with Joan naked was overwhelming. Joan slowly started to relax. As soon as she relaxed she could feel Vera inching towards her. So close that their naked sides are touching.
Vera turned on her side and wrapped her arm around Joans waist and rested her head on Joan's breasts. Joan could feel the younger woman's breath start to slow down and become more even and she drifted off to a deep sleep. Joan was still in shock before she realized that Vera was comfortable and so was she. It was odd being comfortable in this position but she liked it and didn't want it to end.
She put her arm around Vera and pulled her closer. She began to run her fingers over Veras hairline and watched her as she slept. She saw how Vera was so peaceful as she slept. Her face was so soft and she could see how all her worries went away.
After watching Vera sleep for a bit she drifted off as well. She was so happy to be in this position that she went to bed with a smile on her face while cuddling Vera.
