Fated

Chapter 7

AMBRA

It has been three days since I left the hospital and moved to Ezra's house, it has been a little overwhelming, I don't really trust anyone, and this place is full of people most of the time, but Ezra has been extremely nice and he came with me every time I had to leave my room. 

Three days ago a few members of the community along with Ezra came with me and helped me pack and move my things, I could tell that few of them had angry or sad faces, and I thought it was because they had to come here and help me a total stranger move to their home, but when I asked Ezra he said they were mad to the people who did this to me, in his community, there is no tolerance against who r***s and beats women. I felt slightly relieved that they weren't angry at me. Once we moved my things to my room I started unpacking and setting all the things to their new rightful place. I had a walking closet as big as my old room, I couldn't even fill half of it, but that was ok, I don't need a lot of clothes.

I was almost done unpacking when there was a knock on the door when I opened the door the most handsome man was standing right in front of me with two bags of Chinese food.

- Hey stranger how is your room coming so far?-

- Hi Ezra, soon everything will be done, I just have a couple of boxes left... Do you want to come in?-

- Actually, I was going to ask you if you want to come over to my room and have dinner with me and then maybe we can watch a movie... If I remember correctly we still have dinner and a movie waiting for us-

- I... I...Give me 15 minutes and I'll be ready and I'll come to your room-  So he actually wanted to have a date with me, the only thing I could do was to blush like a teenage girl... how embarrassing. After I took a shower and changed into clean clothes, nothing too fancy, a pair of grey shorts and a baby blue crop top, I braided my hair, I didn't have time to dry them off, also I was already ten minutes late.

Once I was standing in front of his room I didn't even have time to knock, he was already there opening the door and taking me in a hug. I didn't expect that, but I returned the hug, after all, he has only been nice to me. 

 - For a moment I thought you changed your mind -

- Sorry I hate being late, but I had to take a shower, you don't want your room to stink, don't you?-

- You didn't stink when I came to your room, but I'm glad you are here, let's eat, I'm starving ahah - After he finished the sentence my stomach decided it was time to make the loudest noise ever made, I was so embarrassed, but Ezra thought it was funny and was laughing so much that he was crying. After he calmed down we took a seat and we ate chatting about my room and college, he told me a few things about the community and after we were done eating we moved to the couch and we turned the tv on. After discussing for over 20 minutes about which movie pick, we ended up watching Harry Potter.

EZRA 

She is so beautiful and she smells so good, it is intoxicating and even if Eniach keeps trying to get control, I'm the happiest man alive having her here in my room sitting on the couch close to me and watching one of the most famous movies ever made. I didn't expect her to fall asleep with her head on my shoulder, I was having an inside battle between taking her back to her room or taking her in my lap and sleeping there on the couch with her. I decided to sleep with her for a couple of hours and then I would bring her back to her room, so gently without waking her up I took her in my lap and without noticing I fell asleep, that was the best sleep I ever had.

AMBRA

It felt so warm and safe I didn't want to wake up, but the lightest snoring got my curiosity so I opened my eyes and I found myself cuddled up in Ezra lap, with my head resting between his shoulder and his neck, I had to move I don't want him to see us like this, I don't want him to think I'm desperate... when I tried to move his hold tightened against me and he said: - Don't leave, Ambra please stay-  and I couldn't find myself to deny him, so I just laid back down and fell asleep again. 

We both woke up around 10 a.m. I didn't know how to feel about what happened, but I can't deny that this was the best sleep I had in years, for the first time I didn't have nightmares and I felt rested. We had a quick breakfast and after that, I went to my room and I started to nervously unbox the two boxes I had left. They were pictures of my family, of my sister, and my mother and without noticing I felt a wave of sadness coming over me and I started to cry. I must have cried myself to sleep because when I woke up I was still on the floor, but Ezra was there trying to wake me up and was whispering shooting words...
