  Stepping out feeling the pavement underneath my shoe, feels good to look back at society, new people. Don't get me wrong Jack is perfect in every aspect of the way, its just I need to actually talk to someone different. People pass by me and give me a small stare, it wasn't a good or a bad one but the look of confusion. In return I give them a smile and a hello, but they keep walking. Did I look funny? I made my way to the store Jack had picked out for us, but he was nowhere to be seen, so I walked around examining the stores and people.

   I walked around for about a good thirty minuets, but got bored and tired. There was a cool alley to my left and I peered in hoping to see someone getting mugged( I know terrible) to bring excitement to me. No luck, damn I've been out for a while hmm? Mistakenly I was standing there peering into the alley when someone bumped into me and I fell back. 

"I'm sorry" I grunted to look up. Standing there looking at me with a blank expression with fear, was none other ,but the man who tried to kill me. My heart was heavy as we both just stared at each other not making a move or a sound. I started to scoot back with my lower half scraping against the floor. He took a step closer looking puzzled as if I we a ghost. It was Michael. I started to cry and whimper not sure where to go but scooted away from him. 

"Y-your" He stuttered getting closer to me. No this isn't real, I can't be back where I started. He snapped out of it looking around to see if anyone was watching. No one was around and to my luck (again)  there was an alley by me. He slowly took more steps closer to me, when I let out a scream "NO!" He put his hands over his ears in shock. I quickly got to my feet and started running. Why? why am I here? He's going to find and kill me!

   I noticed another figure standing in front of a shop. It quickly spun around "You're late". It was Jack, he leaned and smiled at me for a second and noticed I was crying. Grief washed over his face, "What happened?" He pulled me closer to him. Through my sobs I managed to speak "They're here."  I felt my insides churn and collapse on me reminding me of what they did to me before. I felt the once comforting mood drop when I felt his presence turn cold with anger. "Jack?" I looked up and he was staring at a figure in front of him. Jack's grip around me tightened as he looked Michael in the eye. Jack stood up with me pressed into his chest, "How could you do this to her!?" He yelled at Michael. 

   Jack loosened his grip and put me behind him, before long there was a crowd surrounding us out side the store. 

   All eyes on us waititng for the next move."How could you, just rape her, almost kill her, and then leave her in the ocean for the sharks. YOU SICK FUCK" He yelled at him. I looked over at Michael trying to process what was he just said. The crowds eyes looked over at me in sympathy and amazement that I was still living."You're luck I don't kill you right now where you stand" He spat pure hatred at him. Michael still looked blank and looked at me, I felt fear shoot up at me as I gripped Jack's shirt.   

   Then Michael's face when red and a smiled appeared on his face. "So what, that little bitch deserved everything that happened to her and more" He sneered at Jack. It looked as if it were the last straw for Jack when Michael came charging at Jack and me. I started trembling with each step Jack took away from me to catch up with Michael on the other end. Michael took the first swing at his face and the crowd 'ooh'd' at how quick his face swollen. Jack quickly swung back but harder making the skin on his face break and bleed heavily. I could almost feel the pain on that one as everyone's attention was on them.

   I felt as If I could do nothing, which was ironically could do nothing. I couldn't move a muscle, I was paralyzed in fear and pain. I looked upon Jack's face only to have my heart break to see the damage that happened because of me. I started to cry even harder then before for Jack. Michael must of herd me for he said "That little bitch over there is calling for her, why don't you treat her like the slut she is." He laughed. The crowd became angry and started to chant for jack to kick his ass.

   He didn't instead jack stood up from hitting his face in, he came towards me and picked me up, and started walking away. I was puzzled, he just looked down at me and smiled "Are you okay?" I nodded touching his face where Michael hit and rubbed it in. He held my hand in place where my hand was touching. "Where are we going?" I finally asked to him. He just chuckled at me and spoke softly "On our date". I just smiled and looked back to see what became of Michael. He was getting the shit kicked out of him and amazingly the police where right there and didn't to anything about it.
