Cactus

(Ashley's POV)

It's been three days since I went to the police station. I asked to be questioned alone, so Avi wouldn't hear what Jenna had done.  But I did told the police everything.

Now it's really late, but I couldn't fall asleep.  

I need Avi to fall asleep.  I need him.

But I can't have him, not now.  I'll try to hurt him.

Just look at him won't matter right?  

I got up from my bed, and went to Avi's room.

I slowly climbed on his bed, hoping he won't wake up.

He didn't, he was still sleeping peacefully.

"I miss you."  I whispered to the sleeping Avi.

Not to touch him is really hard, but it's for the best.

I looked at him carefully.  He's so cute when he sleeps.

Oh, I'm getting sleepy as well.

-----------------------------------------------------

His eyes opened and fixed with mine.

He blinked twice to clear his vision.

After he saw that it was me who's lying right beside him and only inches apart, he was scared.

"What are you doing in my bed?"  He said.

He sat up, and got off the bed.  He curled himself into a ball at the corner.

"Go away."  He hugged his knees.

I rolled off the bed, and walked towards him.

"Avi, I won't hurt you..."  I mumbled.

"Yes, you will.  Go away!  You're like...Jenna."  He raised his voice, and he looked really scared.

"Please don't say that!!  I'm not like her."  I said.

"You are like Jenna, and you'll hurt me.  I hate you, Ashley."  He glared at me and said.

I hate you...I hate you..I hate......

Avi's voice kept echoing, repeating in my mind.

No!!!  I'm not Jenna!!  Don't hate me, Avi!!  I'm not Jenna...

Noooooo!!

(Avi's POV)

This is odd, I'm sleeping but I could sense Ashley lying next to me.

I chuckled with my eyes closed.

I'm going crazy maybe.  To see her everyday but not able to hold her is killing me.

No kisses, no cuddles for three days...

And now I'm still thinking about her when I'm sleeping.

I adjusted myself to a more comfortable position.

But I hit something accidentally, and I opened my eyes.

I saw Ashley sleeping next to me, only a few inches away.

And now I'm having illusions..or maybe it was a dream.

 But how real it was!  It's like she's really there.

I reached my hand up, and I touched her cheek, stroking it slowly.

Maybe it really was her.

Wait, then I shouldn't touch her.

Suddenly, she moved, and I quickly removed my hand from her face.

She opened her eyes, and she looked at me.

Then her eyes started to water.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to touch you..."  I mumbled.

"No, it's not that.  I just had a bad dream."

 Ashley rubbed her eyes and continued.

"You were afraid of me, and you said you hate me..."  She sniffed.

"That's crazy, babe.  I love you."  I said to her as I put a hand on her cheek.

"No, Avi."  She grabbed my wrist and pulled it away from her face.

I sighed.

"Ash, please tell me why we can't touch..?"  I asked.

She looked at me.

"Jenna did rape me..." She said softly.

"She.."  I tried to process her words.

My jaw dropped, and my lips trembled.

"Baby, it's okay.  I'm okay now."  Ashley held my hands.

It eventually calmed me down.  My hands in hers...

But I was still mad, and sad.  Jenna did this to my girl!!?

Ashley came closer to me, and we hugged, for the first time in three days.

She buried her head in my chest.

"I'm so sorry."  I mumbled as I kissed her hair.

I couldn't imagine what she had been through.

She pulled away, and she shifted her body to the side of the bed.

It's like she remembered that we can't touch.

"I'm scared, Avi.  What if I want to hurt you?  What if I want to have you so badly that I wanna harm you..?  Like what Jenna did to me.."  She said quickly as she hugged herself.

Is that what she's been afraid of?

"You would never."  I said as I got closer to her, and I continued talking.

"Jenna is sick, babe.  And she's frustrated because she can't have you.  But you can have me.. I'm yours."  I said to her.

"I'm yours, too.."  She said with a smile.

"Can I...."  I blushed as I pursed my lips.

"Yes."  She cupped my face gently, and gave me a sweet kiss.

I pulled away suddenly.

"Ow! That really hurt, Ash!"  I acted dramatically, just messing with her.

"Not funny!"  She bit her lip and hit me lightly on the arm.

Even that kinda touch felt nice.

A/N:  Oh my gosh I haven't updated for three days whaaat?

Pleeease forgive me and don't hate me, I've been busy.

It's been  a crazy week, right?  Lots of things happening with Pentatonix!!  I'm so excited.

Anyways, please vote and possibly leave a comment, thank you so much<3
