Fighter Boy

Chapter 36

There was a knock at the door and Bolland answers, it was Shawzy. He lets him and brings him to Katie, who was still sleeping. Bolland leaves the room as Shawzy walks over to her. He leans over the bed and kisses her forehead.

Her eyes start to open slowly and she sees him. She sits up and wraps her arms around his neck. He wraps his arms around her shoulder area.

"Shawzy, I've missed you so much." she says.

"I've missed you too." he says. They break apart and he looks at her. He sees the bruises. "What the heck did the bitch do to you?"

"Hey! Watch it, there are children here."

"Sorry."

He kisses her belly, "Shawzy's here now." he whispers to her belly. Katie starts to giggle a little. He sits on the bed next to her. "So what happened?"

She places her head on his shoulder, "He slapped me when I said a couple things to him."

"Like what?"

"One time I said I didn't love him. The other time was how..."

"How what?"

"How you love me more in the short time that we have known each other compare to how he love me in the long time that I have known him. He said to never says your name again..." tears start to run down her face. He swoops her in a hug.

"Don't cry, he's old news."

"Sorry..." she wipes the tears from her face.

"It's fine. Come on, let's go somewhere."

She nods her head and he grabs her hand. They walk out of the room and runs into Bolland. Shawzy thanks him for getting Katie and he says it was no problem. They walk out of the house and go to Shawzy's car. They get in and he starts to drive away.

"You drove here?" she asks.

"Yeah, much easier than going to an airport and fighting with all that stuff." he says.

They drive for hours and hours, stopping to get something to eat or to get gas. They got a house that was kind of in the middle of nowhere.

"Where are we?" Katie asks.

"Vacation, I figure he would be coming after you. So we can't go to Chicago for a little bit, so I found this cottage that we will be staying." Shawzy says.

She smiles as they get out. They walk up to the house and he grabs a key from the bushes. He opens the door and she goes inside. He ran back to the car and grabs two suitcases. He walks back into the house and closes the door.
