《Stranded》Chapter 25: My poor hand!

Becca's P.O.V
Today was such a busy day! I thought as I brush my hair. I turn off the lights and put on my nightlight.
I put down the brush and walk towards my bed. I feel a cold breeze. I shivered. Who opened the window? I am obviously imagining this.
It could be a werewolf or worse a vampire.
Okay, I need to breathe. Vampires and werewolves don't exist. Vampires and werewolves don't exist. Vampires and werewolves don't exist. My aunt, Linda always tells me that vampire and werewolf stories makes you lose your mind! I'm seriously starting to believe it.
Maybe I need to stop reading those kind of books. I carefully close the window.
Did my. . . I swear I saw my bedcover move, just now! I am officially going bonkers!
I close my eyes and look at it again. Yep, it's moving!
I jump into my bed, hoping I can squash it somehow. I bump into something warm and solid.
OMG! WHAT THE HECK!!! Is it a turtle? WHAT THE HECK IS THIS? SHOULD I SCREAM? I AM GOING TO DIE!!!
I gather all the courage I have and I whack it with all my might. "Ouch! What's that for, babe?" the voice mumbles. I dash towards the light switch.
I turn on the lights. I see Noah's tousled hair popping out of my bedcovers.
"Noah, what are you fricking doing here? I thought you were a vampire or something! You really scared me, you. . . you jerk!" I whisper at him, angrily.
"Well, nice to see you, too, babe." he teases. I narrow my eyes at him. He sits up, running a hand through his hair.
Which is standing in many crazy directions. I sigh.
It's so hard to stay mad at him. I walk over to my bed and sit in his arms. He tucks a strand of hair that escaped my bun behind my ear.

"So what are you doing here?" I ask, softly.
"My bed feels lonely. I guess I got used to sleeping with you beside me. I get it. It's creepy. I probably should leave, before things gets weird." he answers, starting to stand up. I nuzzle his neck.
"Stay. Sleep with me." I whisper into his ear.
"Ok, that sounded wrong." he jokes. I swat him.
"You know what I mean." I replied. I get off his lap and lie down in bed.
He climbs in beside me. He faces me. I wrap my leg around his.
He pulls me into his arms. "Good night, sweetheart." I whispered. I kiss his neck.
"Good night, babe." he whispers back.
"Good night, Noah." I whisper, again feeling wide awake.
He grins, his teeth glow in the dark. He chuckles and his lips find mine.
"Good night, babe. This is the last time." he teases.
"Noah?" I whispered. He laughs.
"Yeah?" He whispers back.
"My hand hurts." I complained.
"Let me help make you feel better." he says, tenderly kissing my hand.
"It's the other hand, actually." I giggle. He groans.
"That kind of information is needed to be told earlier." he retorts, kissing my other hand.
I laugh and kiss him. I wrap my arms around his neck. We lie there in silence.
Slowly, my eyelids grow heavier and heavier.
"Becca?" he whispers.
"What." I said, struggling to pronounce the 'wh' part.
"I love you." he whispers.
I open my mouth to say it back, but sleep conquers all of my consciousness just like love does to my brain.

8 200Memoirs of A Healer/Clinical Social Worker: Autobiography of Bruce Whealton
A loving spouse. A healer. How does this person cope with evil villains willing to destroy everything? They convicted the victim... now how does the victim goes on with life as a healer?As the book opens, I was in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt in December 2019. What starts as a simple conversation with another patient changed my life. Most of the rest of the book tells the reader how I got to this point. I experienced profound injustice between 2004 and 2006. By opening with a story about suicide, I want the reader to understand that the injustice was not just something that happened long ago.This book is an account of all the accomplishments and successes that I had in overcoming tremendous odds and challenges. Growing up, I was paralyzed by shyness and lacked social skills, and so the idea of becoming a psychotherapist never occurred to me when I went off to college. I learned that I could overcome those limitations. I wanted to bring that hope and healing to others. Activities like that make life meaningful and bring me joy. The reasons why I was suicidal in 2019 were set in motion in 2000 when a meteor would come crashing down upon the life that I had built leaving me powerless to do anything other than watching everything burn to ashes - the home that I had, the life I had known, the love I had, my career, everything would disappear almost as if it never existed. In that one the year 2000, I could not imagine things could get any worse. But the nightmare would continue for the next few years... culminating in a suicide attempt in 2019. Now, I am connecting with others, building relationships, and finding a reason to live again. I am writing my own story of my life. I will fight against the injustice of the past and offer my gifts to the world. I have so much to offer. I have quite a story to tell. I hope you will help me to move on with my life.
