My Best Friend's Brother

Chapter 16

Ainsley POV: 2 weeks left of summer

I only had two weeks left with Keaton before he went off to college. I knew he was going to come home and visit on the weekends. But, I wanted to see him more than that.

I was watching One Tree Hill when Keat knocked on my bedroom door. He opened the door. "Hey babe. Whatcha doing?" He asked.

"I'm watching One Tree Hill." I replied with a shrug. "You can come watch if you want."

He sat down next to me on my bed and I nestled my way into his embrace.

About half-way through the first episode he blurted out "This show is so dramatic how do you keep up?"

I started laughing. "I love this show, I mean yeah there's drama but it's so intriguing." I answered.

He kissed my forehead. "Baby, can we do something else?" He asked.

"What did you have in mind?"

"Let's go for a walk."

"Ok lemme grab my shoes then we can go."

We walked around in a park near my house for a while.

"Ainsley we need to talk." He stated rather blandly.

"Um ok." I answered.

We walked over to a bench and sat down.

"So how do you see us working out with me going off to college?" He asked.

"Well I figured we'd do long distance until I graduate next spring then I would attend the same college as you." I suggested.

"Ains, I will only see you on weekends maybe once a month. I wouldn't like that and I know you wouldn't either. I just don't want to tie you down to me when I am not here for you." He finished.

"Keat, I love you and you are who I want to be tied down to If I'm tied down to anyone. It won't be easy, but, who said relationships are easy?" I answered. "I will come visit you and watch you play football on the weekends."

"Ok Ains, I just don't want you to feel like you have to do this. You know I want whats best for you because I love you." He responded.

"I know, I want whats best for you too ya know." I said.

We decided to drop the conversation on a high note and went back to my house. I convinced him to watch a couple more episodes of One Tree Hill and then he decided to go home because apparently he has had too much drama for today.

I decided to go to sleep early since I had church in the morning.

{AINSLEY'S DREAMLAND}

"Keat." I yelled "Keat" I yelled once more. I was kicking someone, someone had grabbed from the street when I left the football game. Nobody was around. I was scared. The person who grabbed me covered my head so my screams were muffled. I tried hard to get away. I was hit in the head by something hard, maybe a stick or a pipe and I was thrown into a trunk of a car knocked out.

The next thing I know I am tied to a chair in what appears to be a warehouse of some kind. I looked around to see who grabbed me. I felt as I had seen her somewhere not that long ago. My memory hadn't fully returned to me because of the blow to the head.

"Who are you and where am I?" I asked. "Well well if looks like the whore's awake." The person replied. "What do you want from me?" I asked trying to get any answer I could. "You'll see Ms. Morris." The person replied.

Suddenly I see a gun pointed at my face. The person had there finger on the trigger. The last words I heard were "Now you'll see how I feel." She said.

I woke up out of my dream sweating and screaming. My mom ran into my room to see if I was alright.

"Ains are you okay?" My mom asked.

"Yeah, bad nightmare, I am ok." I replied trying to sound calm.

"Try to get some rest. I will see you in the morning." She suggested.

"Thank mom. Goodnight." I said to her as she left the room.

I tried hard to fall back asleep but in all honesty I was scared I was going to return to that horrendous nightmare. I ended up staring at the ceiling for a while though somewhere along the line I actually fell asleep because a couple hours later I was hearing. "Beep, Beep, Beep." My alarm going off.

I jumped out of bed and put my church dress on. I wore a yellow sundress and a pair of gladiator sandals. I tied my hair into a loose braid and put light makeup on. Then I headed downstairs where my parents waited for me so we could head to church.
