He sighed and studied her thoughtfully. "You need to eat, Lucy... at least have a little soup?" He pleaded with her softly as he played with her hair. She needed to eat, and he'd be willing to bet that she hadn't eaten in a while. He knew that she didn't want to eat, but a lot of times, after a traumatizing experience no one wanted to do much of anything even though they needed to. She may not have wanted to eat, but he knew she needed to. And it would help her settle in for the night.
He smiled at her as she climbed in, under the covers. He chuckled at her when she ducked under the covers. Mark resituated himself and climb over to Lucy. He playfully pulled the covers off from over her head and looked down at her. " For me. Please?" He asked softly, brushing a kiss over her lips. He wasn't sure if that would work, but it wouldn't hurt to try. He didn't climb under the covers with her though. He still planned on sleeping on the couch unless she asked him out right to sleep in his bed with her. He wasn't going to deny that he would have liked that very much right now because he wanted to hold her close and let her know she was safe, but he wouldn't unless she asked him to.

Lucy smiled at him as he pulled the covers out from over head. She kissed him back softly. She really didn’t want to eat but she knew that he obviously wanted her to. She sat up in the bed and smiled at him. Pressing a soft kiss against his lips. ”Ok, I’ll eat some of the sandwich.” She gave in. She hoped this would at least make him content. She leaned into him a little. Giving him another soft kiss. She just liked the feel of his lips against hers. It made her all warm and tingly inside. She knew she really liked him, there wasn’t any denying she had strong feelings for him. She wasn’t sure if it was love. She didn’t know what love felt like, what love could make you do. She wanted to know, she wanted to be able to put a label on what she felt for him. She wanted to tell him, to let him know what she felt like him. But she didn’t want to tell him she loved him. Even though she thought it would be very plausible. He was the only person she had ever opened up to, that she trusted. He treated her like a princess and would do anything for her. If she was going to fall in love with somebody, wouldn’t he be the guy to do it with?
Lucy missed his embrace almost. She looked at him, she didn’t want him to sleep on the couch. This was his bed, but she was so comfortable in his bed as well. She had an idea but was going to have to ponder it for a while. Or maybe she should just shoot it out there, ask him what he thought of it. She smiled at him. She didn’t want to sleep alone tonight, and if they slept together, it was ok right? They weren’t having sex. Lucy knew Mark would never bring up the topic if she didn’t first. She had learned that about him, he wasn’t ever going to push anything on Lucy. This made her have to be a little more outgoing. She had to bring up ideas and show courage on her own.
”Mark, would you stay here tonight?” She finally asked him as she took a bit of her sandwich. She hadn’t wanted to eat, but it did settle her nerves a little to have food in her stomach. She was glad that Mark had asked her too. He knew what was best for her than she did herself it turned out. She was happy to have him. Although nervous on what he would take what she had asked. Hopefully he would understand what she was asking him. She just knew she would rest easier in his arms tonight than alone in a cold bed.

A slow, soft smile grew across his lips before he brushed a soft kiss over her lips. "Good." He said gently as he happily welcomed another soft kiss. She was enjoying giving him kisses, and he was enjoying receiving them. It showed him that she was growing more. She was trusting him more, and that meant a lot to him. He reached to the tray that held two mugs of tomato soup and a plate with two grilled cheese sandwiches on them. His had ham on it as well, but he had just put cheese on hers. He knew how she felt about meat. She wouldn't eat it unless it was a good hunk of meat. He picked up his sandwich, taking a bite out of it, enjoying the gooey cheese as he offered her the other sandwich.
He looked to her in surprise, mid chew of his own sandwich. He blinked a couple of times and nodded his head weakly. "Yeah. I have a blow up mattress I can set up on the floor." He said gently, a bit ignorant about the fact that she wanted him to sleep in the bed with her. Sometimes Mark could be a bit dense. He was a smart man. He was just a little oblivious to subtle hints sometimes when it came to women and what they were asking. He studied her for a moment before and sipped the soup from his mug. He usually just drank tomato soup from a coffee mug.

Lucy smiled at him while she enjoy the gooey sandwich. It was pretty satisfying considering she hadn’t wanted to eat it in the first place. She smiled at Markus charmingly. She giggled a little when he didn’t get what she meant. She thought she should have probably given him a bigger hint. She brushed her hand against his arm and leaned into him. Her lips brushing against his cheek. ”No, I meant in bed with me silly.” She said before gently placing a kiss on his cheek. Of course she wanted him to stay in bed with her. Of course, for some odd reason, she was a little more outgoing today. She was scared and confused.
She had been spoken to about a therapist before about this. They said it was after she got scared by her father she was most vulnerable; because she wanted somebody to tell her they loved her. So if she ever had feelings for a man, it was after her father had beaten her or scared her where she was most likely to have sex with him. She wanted to be closer to him and hide the thoughts of her father so she would have sex with a man she thought she loved. Lucy had tried to understand it, and in a way she had. Although, this didn’t stop the fact. She really liked Mark, and she trusted him more than anybody else, so simply she wanted to show him she trusted him.

He watched her eat for a moment before he continued eating, taking a sip of the tart soup every few minutes as he sat up in the bed a little more relaxed than usual.
He stared at her mid sip at the soup. She was asking him to sleep in bed with her. That was definitely not something he had been expecting. He licked his lips and set the mug of soup down on the bed for a moment, studying her. "You...you don't mind?" He asked gently, studying her. He hoped she didn't get him wrong, because he had absolutely no issue with sleeping with her tonight, but he had thought that she might be more comfortable if he were not in the bed with her.
He set the soup down and looked to her for a moment thoughtfully. "I've got to get a shower, but I will be back soon." He said as he climbed out of the bed. He leaned in over the bed and brushed a kiss over her cheek gently. He stood up straight and went to his dresser, pulling out some boxers and pants. He usually just slept in boxers when he slept, but he figured for her sake that she would appreciate the pajama pants he was going to put on. "I'll be back in ten." He told her as he stopped by the bed and leaned down to brush a soft kiss over her lips, grinning at her warmly.
Dippy came trotting in happily as though he thought Lucy needed a guard, and he hopped up onto the double sized bed to keep Lucy company while Mark took his shower. He grinned and ruffled the dog's ears softly before he ran to get a quick shower.

Lucy smiled at his surprised look. He was so sweet, and he wanted to make sure she was comfortable. She was pretty sure that’s what his reaction was at least. She didn’t figure it would be that he didn’t want to make her uncomfortable. Not that he didn’t want to sleep cuddled up with her. Lucy smiled and brushed a soft kiss against his cheek. ”Yes babe, I’m sure. I’d feel safer if you were right beside me.” Lucy really wanted to sleep with him. She couldn’t explain exactly why she wanted to sleep with him, all she knew is that she did. She really wanted to sleep wrapped up in his arms and she wanted to be held by him all night long. She wanted to just relax in his warm grip. She knew she would sleep better with him than if he were in a different room.
She smiled when he said he was going to take a shower. She welcomed his kiss warmly and returned it. He had warm soft lips and Lucy really enjoyed kissing them. She smiled as Dippy hopped up on the bed to join her. She pet the dog softly. She really enjoyed the company of the dog, it was great. Especially after seeing her father today, she remembered the warmth and caring hearts of canines. They were such great creatures and she had a deep connection with them. Lucy wrapped her arms around the dog as Mark walked out of the room. She closed her eyes gently. She was just going to try to rest for a while until Mark got back.

He smiled at her and went to go take a shower. He quickly stripped out of the close and hopped into the shower, turning it on. He let out a hiss as cold water streamed over him before it began to warm. Once it did his tense body relaxed and he sighed, lathering some shampoo up in his hands before he rubbed it into his hair. He didn't generally take long showers. He was a man. Most men only took about five minutes when it came to showers. It was just a law of nature really.
Once the shower was done and he was clean, he hopped out, ruffled the towel over his hair to dry out the golden locks before he wrapped the towel around his waist. He combed out his hair and brushed his teeth for a couple of minutes before he dressed into the boxers and pajamas. He hoped she didn't mind about no shirt. He never slept with a shirt on. He was too hot natured to wear a shirt.
Mark came back about ten minutes later as he'd told her and he smiled at the sight he found on his bed. He leaned against the door frame for a moment, studying the sleeping Lucy. Dippy was snuggled up against her back, his head resting on her hip. He grinned and slowly made his way to the bed. He turned off the light and carefully crawled into the bed beside her. his strong arms wrapped around her and pulled her close to him. He just watched her sleep for a while, his hand softly playing with her hair. She looked peaceful. Angelic and peaceful. He brushed a kiss over her cheek before he laid his head down on a pillow and he closed his eyes, sighing contently as he began to doze off.

Lucy was running, and it was dark. She couldn’t figure out for a while, but she was running. Her heart was pounding and she was scared. She looked behind her to be slapped across the face. She started crying and was pushed to the ground. It was Daniel, he was attacking her again. Lucy began to cry, to beg him not to. But Daniel showed no mercy. Lucy pushed, pulled, tried to fight against him. Daniel over powered her though. She struggled when he was more powerful. He bit her, slapped her, told her to shut up. Lucy screamed, she screamed as loud as she could. Quickly she sat up in the bed, waking herself up she screamed so loud. Lucy started to cry and she looked over to see Mark. Lucy tried to take deep breaths.
Dippy woke and Lucy felt instantly bad. She hoped she wouldn’t wake up anybody else. She wrapped her arms around the dog, holding it close. Lucy was scared now. She was shaking, she felt bad for coming over now. If she hadn’t come over she wouldn’t be risking waking up Mark right now. She was shaking so bad she was pretty sure that itself could wake him up, not counting the fact she was sobbing and had woke up screaming. Lucy had thought being in his arms would help, and she had to admit it had. She looked at the clock, five o’clock. She had made it a lot further than she usually made. She guessed it was inevitable that she would wake up either way.
Lucy held onto the dog. She was glad it had been there for her to feel safe with. Lucy naturally felt safer with dogs. Mark had helped too though. She wanted to just be close to him again. She knew they didn’t have much longer to sleep in, but maybe a little. Lucy thought maybe staying awake would be the better option. She couldn’t wake herself up like this again if she didn’t sleep.

Mark was usually a very heavy sleeper, but this particualr night, he was rather on edge, so he was in a lighter sleep tonight. He woke with a start when he heard a scream. He thought he was just hearing things at first, but he realized when he opened his eyes that Lucy was sitting up. He looked to her for a moment, watching as she hugged Dippy close, who was whining softly and licking at her face in an attempt to calm her down.
Mark reached his hand to her elbow as he slowly sat up. "Lucy.... are you alright?" He asked softly as he hugged her to him gently. She was shaking. He had a good idea about why to. He hugged her close and stroked a hand over her hair, trying to calm her down. "Shhh. Shh... you're okay, Lucy." He murmured into her hear, stroking her hair softly. "You're okay. I'm not going let anything happen to you." He murmured, kissing the top of her head. "I promise." He whispered into her ear.
He looked over the side of the bed when he heard a soft, whiny whimper. She must have woken up the puppy because Fleur had nosed open the door when she heard Lucy. He reached down and picked the puppy up, setting her in his lap. The pup nudged at Lucy, whining softly as her cold wet nose brushed against her arm.

Lucy smiled softly when she felt his arm and heard him. She was glad she had woken him up, even though she felt guilty as well. She hoped he wouldn’t mind though. She turned into him and squeezed him in her arms. She got close to him, as close to him as possible. Squeezing him tight she was glad he didn’t have a shirt on surprisingly. She just liked touching his warm back. Lucy was comfortable around him, which wasn’t something normal for her, actually it was quite odd to be comfortable around people in general. Lucy was defiantly comfortable around him though, and that was a really good thing for her to comfortable around a man.
Lucy leaned in and gave him a kiss when she felt the puppies nose press against her arm. She rubbed the puppies head. ”I’m fine.” She ensured the pup and Dippy before turning back to Mark. She leaned into him. ”Thanks to you.” She said softly. She rubbed her head into the crook of his neck as she wrapped her arms around him. She was really happy he had been right there for her. Sleeping with him had been a really good idea and she didn’t regret it one bit.
Lucy brushed her hands through Mark’s hair. She gave him another kiss on the lips, this one a little more passionate. She wasn’t nearly as afraid as she had been their first date. She was actually really happy now. She trusted him, and she liked him a lot and she was happy to have him in her life.

He held her close, rubbing her back gently as she pressed herself close to him. He reached a hand up to her hair and softly sifted his fingers through her dark locks. He looked down to Fleur for a moment as Dippy hopped down from the bed. Fleur looked to Dippy and then back to Mark and Lucy. He grinned and nudged to puppy away. She gave a little yip and then quickly jumped down from the bed and scampered off after Dippy. He smiled and looked to Lucy after a moment. "Happy to be of service." He grinned softly and pecked a soft kiss over her lips.
He felt goosebumps rise trail along his back after her hands. He knew she wasn't purposely teasing him, but she was doing a fine job of it. He pulled her into his lap as she pressed a much more passionate kiss to his lips. He gave a soft little hum of delight as one hand ran through her hair, gently cupping the back of her head and the other ran over the length of her back, almost wishing she had no shirt on. His hand gently coming to a rest just above her bum. He was afraid if he lowered his hands any further he might scare her or give her the wrong idea, though he definitely had sex on the brain when she kissed him like this. He pressed his lips against her firmly, in a very possessive, hungry manner.
He pulled away after a moment, coming up for air. He met her gaze and brough his hand around to her cheek. "I don't want you to think I'm trying to take advantage of your vulnerable state." He murmured softly as he met his blue eyes to her gaze, his thumb stroking along her cheekbone.

Lucy leaned into him more, deepening the kiss. She hadn’t ever done this before, but she liked it. She pressed herself into him further. Running her hands up and down his back more. She really enjoyed this, and right now she was really hoping he had been the only one she had woken up. She didn’t want Jared to walk in on the two. Lucy was twenty-two and she was still scared of being caught by the parents. But as weird as it was, even though Lucy was scared of Jared, he had been the closest thing to a real father she had ever had. Lucy wasn’t sure how far she was going to take this. She didn’t know what sex was if it wasn’t forced. She liked this that he was giving her all the control. She got to chose how far they went. She trusted him, something she hadn’t been ever to do before.
When he pulled away Lucy wasn’t sure what to think. He was giving her the option to stop, and he was so caring. That just made Lucy want him more though. She wrapped her arms around his back and pushed him down to the bed as she laid on top of him. Smiling as her nose brushed against his. ”I know you wouldn’t hurt me.” She said honestly, because she did know he wouldn’t ever do anything to hurt her. Lucy had known Mark for years, and now she was beginning to trust him even more. Lucy kissed him again softly. She played with his chest, brushing her fingers along it gently.
Slowly Lucy made another decision. This was all her choice, and she liked that. For once she had control. For once she was making the choices, not him. Mark was allowing her to do anything and everything. She reached down to her waistline and pulled up her shirt. Pulling it off and tossing it at the ground before pressing her lips against Mark’s again. She wasn’t sure how far she got before she got scared, or if she would get scared. But she was sure she could tell him if it happened and he would stop. She trusted that he would do that for her. Mark wouldn’t push her into anything.

"And if I ever do, I give you full permission to shoot me where I stand." He murmured as he kissed the tip of her nose. He meant that too. He would rather die than to ever hurt her.
Blue eyes watched as she peeled away the oversized shirt, and his eyes lit up as she revealed herself to him. He grinned softly and skimmed his hands along her side, stroking a hand over her soft, warm skin. She slowly sat up, running his hands up and down to soft flesh of her back, meeting her gaze. He pressed a soft kiss along her jaw and neck before trailing them back up to her mouth. "If you want to stop you only have to say so." He murmured, his lips mere millimeters away from hers. He didn't wait for an answer. He gently rolled them over, settling her onto her back. His hand softly tugged at the elastic of her pajama bottoms. He didn't pull them off though. She was in charge right now, and he didn't want to scare her. "You help me with mine, and I'll help you with yours." He gave her a wolfish grin, looking over her half naked form.
God she was a beautiful girl. A very fine example of a woman. And she trusted him more than anyone else. And that meant more than anything to him.

Lucy smiled as he rolled her over. She trusted him so much, she knew she could just say stop. She wanted to go all the way with him though. She wanted to have sex with him. To Lucy, that was love. That was what she had been taught, and she wasn’t sure how else to thank Mark for what he had done. She was going to give him anything he asked for. Lucy hadn’t ever thought she would give herself to a man again, but she was right now giving herself to Mark. Lucy trusted him and she wanted him to know that. She really wanted him to know how strongly she felt about him. She was going to give her the only thing she had left to give. Her will, she couldn’t give him her virginity. Her father had stolen it, but she could give him her first time she was willing.
Lucy kissed him hard as he played with her pants. She wouldn’t mind at all if he were to take them off of her. She smiled at his suggestion and she worked her way to his pajama bottoms. She slowly tugged at them until they slipped off of his body. She kissed him passionately again. This time drawing him in closer to her. She really wanted him, and she could feel how much she did now. Lucy kissed along his neck until she found a warm spot. She slowly started sucking on it, not realizing what she doing. Once she did she stopped, she didn’t want to leave a mark on him.
Lucy ran her fingernails along his back. She was going to do this with him, and she knew it. Maybe she was a little fragile right now, but he was making this all her option. She kissed him as she trailed her fingers along the edge of his boxers. She knew she should ask if he had a condom or anything, because she knew that she wasn’t on birth control. But right now, she really didn’t care at all what happened. She was having fun. Something she hadn’t been used to.

He smiled as she pulled off his pants, happily helping her a little by kicking them to the floor. His fingers softly traced random patterns along her skin as his mouth happily took hers, flicking his tongue across her lips to urge them open. His hand softly stroked along the edge of her own pajamas. He decided since he was giving the reigns of control that he was going to tease her a little. His fingers stroked along the soft, inviting skin as his mouth hungrily pressed against hers.
He carefully pulled the pants away from her legs, peeling them down, one by one before he tossed them to the floor, not caring that the fluttered to the ground next to his. His hand softly skimmed along the side of her leg. He sat up and lifted her leg for a moment, brushing kisses over her ankle, all the way to her knee before he gently laid back across her, reaching to the drawer of his night stand. He opened it and pulled out a packet from the drawer. He always kept condoms in his nightstand and a couple in his wallet, just for the sake of caution. He wasn't some sort of man whore. He just wanted to be careful.
He smiled at her softly as he settled himself on an elbow and held the little packet out to her. "You do the honors." He murmured as he brushed kisses along her jaw and neck. He stopped at the nape of her neck, nibbling and sucking on the tender spot, enjoying the taste and feel of her skin against his lips.
(Fade to Black)
(Several Hours Later)
He roused slightly, first realizing his alarm clock was going off, then realizing he was still on top of Lucy. He carefully rolled off of her and pulled her close to him before he slapped the alarm clock off. He wasn't planning on going in today, and he thought perhaps Lucy should stay in for the day as well. Not just because he wanted her to stay in bed with him for a while, but also because she needed a day off and away from kids who will more than likely, unknowingly remind her of the events of yesterday.
