Prisoner (Baysha) - ON HOLD

Chapter Two: What led me here

Bayley's pov:

I'm pacing around my cell when my cellmate returns with bruises all over his face and blood pouring from his lip and nose. They throw him down on the ground as he groans in pain. I can tell he probably has some broken ribs after that. The guards walk out and lock the doors. I go over to my cellmate and help him up and set him down on his cot. "Ah" he groans as he clutches his ribs. "Sorry" I say with concern. "It's ok, thanks, your not a bad cellmate compared to my others" he says with pain in his voice. "Of course. You and me," I say as I point between us. "Were in this together. We will get out of here and return back to our loved ones" I say but he can tell I'm not 100% sure.

He just knows me so well, we've been cellmates for what I believe a year. He came in one day after having a fight with his old cellmate, which was a plan to get out of here but it didn't work. "How are you feeling?" I ask him but then realized I just asked a stupid question. He just took a beating, how do you think he's feeling? I ask myself. "I'm fine, it just hurts to breathe" he says breathlessly. "Finn, look at me," he looks at me. "We will get out of here and when we do, we will live our lives like were supposed to" I say looking him straight in the eye. "You say that all the time! Look I know you keep telling yourself that but-" he yells but the groans in pain because of his ribs. "Hey relax..." I say softly. "I know you want to be with Sasha and live your lives,"he takes a breathe wincing in pain. "But you have to face it. We will never get out of here.." he says as his voice cracks."We will too!" I yell angrily. "No we won't! You've been here for what, four years? And you haven't gotten out yet! Sasha probably moved on with her life anyway and you'll just be a problem!" he yells but then I see regret in his face after. He's right though and I just stand there not knowing what to say. "You're right..." I say looking down sadly. Finn then reaches for my hand and looks into my eyes.

"Bayley, look, I'm sorry..." he says quietly as I look up at him. "It's ok.." I say with a tear in my eye. "I didn't mean that. I just...I just miss my family so much...and I'm in so much pain all the time" he says with a tear rolling down his face. "I know. But we need each other, all I have is you. How do you think I feel? I've been stuck in this shitty place for years now. When I last saw Sasha she had tears in her eyes and was crying because of me. I didn't even get to apologize when I realized she was telling me the truth.  She was my life, and she still is" I say trying to hold back more tears. "I know, Bay" he says as he pulls me into a hug and from then on I let it all out. I cry for what feels like forever but I just couldn't hold it in anymore.

When we pull away from the hug, I wipe my tears. "Sorry, I just couldn't hold it in anymore" I breathe in and out sharply. "It's alright, it's hard to hold it all in. You were there for me when I broke down and told you about everything that had happened to get me here, so It's my turn now" he says brushing my hair out of my face. "Thank you, you're a good friend" I say with a smile. "No problem. And not to make you anymore vulnerable but, do you mind telling me about what happened that night that led you here?" he says hesitantly. "I don't mind, but be prepared I may break down again" I say. "It's fine" he says as I sit down next to him and begin telling him what happened. He knows half of it but not the whole thing. You're probably wondering to so here it goes.

- Flashback:

I arrived home to confront my wife about the news I had just received from Alexa, my ex. When I walk in I see Sasha with a big smile on her face as she runs into my arms happily. "Baby, you're home! I missed you!" she says excitedly. She then pulls away from the hug and kisses me. It was hard not to kiss back but I was so angry that I didn't and Sasha noticed. "Are you ok babe? Tough day?" she says with concern. "You can say that" I say coldy as I push her out of the way and walk past her and into the kitchen. "Babe? What's wrong?" She is confused by my behavior. Usually I'm all smiles with her and we would be all over each other if it wasn't for my rude attitude. "I just got some news. Some news I didn't expect to hear.." I say glaring at her. "Babe you're scaring me. What's wrong?'' she says worriedly as she walks towards me trying to hug me but I push her off roughly. "Bayley, what's wrong?! What happened?" she says as tears form in her eyes, I can tell by the look on her face that me pushing her made her flashback to everything her father did to her. I felt bad but she broke my heart.

"Alexa told me that you were kissing Sonya, is that true?" I ask as she looks at me with a surprised look. "Kissing Sonya? What? No!" she says defensively. "Why are you lying?" I yelled, making her jump. "Babe I don't know what's gotten into you but-" she said calmly and quietly. "Don't call me that. You don't deserve to call me that after what you did!" I yell as my voice cracks. "I didn't do anything! Sonya is just a friend! All we did was hang out and I confided in her but we didn't do anything else! I promise!" she yells with tears going down her face and begins to clutch her stomach. But why? "Are you-are you ok? Why are you holding your stomach?" I was confused and worried. "That's what I'm trying to tell you. Look, can we just sit down and talk calmly-" she begged. "No, because you're a lying cheating whore!" I yelled not realising what I had said till it came out. She looks at me with a stunned face. I instantly felt bad. She would never cheat on me, right? It's so hard to be mad at her but I need answers. "Bayley, I-I didn't cheat...just calm down" she says with a terrified look of concern on her face.

"No! You hurt me! How could you? When all I did was love you and protect you, remember when I saved you from being killed by your own father?" I said, hitting a nerve. "Don't bring up my father please...you know it still haunts me to this day and I appreciate what you have done for me" she says as her voice cracks. "I love you, Bayley. I only love you. Please believe me" she cries. "I'm done with you. I don't want to see you ever again" I say then I walk out the door and start my car. I can hear Sasha calling my name but I just kept walking. As I'm driving I get countless amounts of calls and texts from Sasha but I just ignore it and put my phone on mute. I set my phone down and when I look up I see bright headlights coming at me. I'm on the wrong side of the road and am going way to fast. And then..oh shit!
