Once I got home from the twenty four hour Chinese shop downtown, I opened the door to the basement only see something that broke my heart a little. She was crying on the floor with her head in her knees. I kept the door open, letting some light in other then the moonlight, before walking over to her. She looked up at me, tears still falling from her eyes. "I bought us Chinese. Sweet and sour chicken, fried rice and a spring roll for you along with a Pepsi max." I sat down in front of her and opened her the tray revealing the food. "I'm not hungry," she said staring up at me. "I honestly don't give a shit. You're going to eat," I growled as I moved closer. Considering she was handcuffed, I knew that she she wouldn't be able to feed herself and I wasn't about to un-cuff her so I grabbed her fork and picked up some rice, blowing on it gently and holding it by her mouth. "I'm a big girl you know," she sassed. "I can feed myself." I clenched my jaw trying to control my anger. "Sorry," she apologized noticing my angry expression. "Please don't hurt me," she said as she stared at the fork for a few seconds before licking her dry lips and parting them, eating the rice.
I repeated the process of feeding her the rice, before pausing to eating majority of mine. Once mine was complete, I started feeding her the chicken. After a few bites she spoke up, "May I please have a drink?" She asked making me nod. We worked together trying to get the Pepsi in her mouth but it ended up spilling all over her shirt making me burst out laughing as she sat there, sitting her straight with her mouth wide open, in shock from the cold liquid now all over her. "It's really cold," she said as she started shivering. "It's okay, I'll find something in my closet that you can change into after."

I smiled lightly at her face which had mascara marks from her tears, before taking her empty Chinese food dish, as well as mine and throw them in the trashcan which was put in the corner of the room. Uh Walking over to her I spoke, "I am going to untie you. The door is locked, you won't be able to leave so there's no point in trying, understand?" She nodded her head, sniffling a little. I untied the rope from the hook before pulling the handcuff key out of my pocket and crouching down to remove the cuffs from her already red and slightly bruised wrists. Once she was free, she immediately rubbed her wrists, before standing up at standing in front of me. I looked down at her trying to predict her next move when tears welled up in her eyes showing me the hurt and pain in them. I rolled my eyes at her, making sure she saw the annoyance that was evident in my eyes. She looked away as the tears fell from her eyes. "I want to go home," she cried making my anger start to rise again. "Well guess what sweetheart, you aren't going home. The sooner you get used to me, the better," I mocked, looking into her eyes. I grabbed her sides, causing her to immediately scream. I pulled her into my chest, holding her tightly against me as she immediately began sobbing into my chest. "Your like the biggest baby I've ever seen Crying will get you no where in life," I snapped, starting to walk backwards, towards the door. "Stay near me at all times, understand? The guys are up there and they'll do anything to you if you aren't careful. Stay against my chest and they won't come near you," I warned making her look up at me with even more worry in her eyes. "You'll be fine," I reassured her before forcing her out of the room. I walked her up the stairs making sure she didn't have a chance, what so ever to escape at any time. I opened the door revealing the living room which was full of loud screams coming from the guys. They were all at the table playing poker, while drinking alcohol and smoking weed. I smiled inwardly as Kassidy instantly, pressed further against me scared out of her mind. I wrapped an arm around her stomach so she knew I was here as I shut and locked the door. I watched as everyone's head snapped towards us and the room became silent. I looked at some of the younger guys, watching as their eyes practically raped Kassidy. My eyes turned dark as I cleared my throat, making sure I had everyone's attention, "This is Kassidy, and so help me god if one of you lay a finger on her, I will personally kill you," I said not bothering to watch their reactions to my words. I continued to hold her close to me as we walked up the stairs to my bedroom.
Once we were in my room, I led her to the bed before walking to my dresser and picking out an t-shirt that I knew would be big on her. I tossed the shirt on the bed, and walked over to her body. Looking down, I raised my hand moving a piece of hair out of her face watching as she flinched, looking down. I grabbed her hands, pulling her up and grabbing the shirt. "Let's get you in the shower so your skin isn't sticky." I said leading her to the en suite. I turned on the hot water before turning to her. I set the shirt on the toilet cover and grabbed a towel setting it on top of the shirt. "I will be downstairs, there's no way that you can get out so don't even try." I said before walking out, shutting the door behind me.

I opened the shampoo bottle, the wonderful smell filling my senses. As I started lathering my hair with the shampoo I heard a knock on the door. "Hey, I forgot to lock the window. Can I quickly do it now?" I heard the man ask from the other side making me sigh, "I guess you can." I heard some rattling before I heard a small thud. The fear in my stomach started to build as I watched his shadow. I watched as he sat down on the ground sighing. "Talk to me baby," he mumbled making me cringe. "What do you want me to say?" I asked quietly while rinsing the shampoo out. "What's your favorite color?" he asked making me furrow my eyebrows. "Purple, why?" I asked. "Just trying to hold a conversation," he mumbled. "What's your favorite subject?"
"English."
"What's your favourite food?"
"Oreo's."
"What do you want right now?"
"To see my brother." I said looking down sadly as I washed my body with the men's scented body wash. I knew Marco was dead, but I miss him like crazy and want to see him. Once I was finished in the shower, I slowly peaked behind the curtain to see the guy looking away at a wall. "Coast is clear. I promise that I won't look." He said looking at the tiles. I picked up the towel, drying myself off before wrapping my hair in the towel.
Once I was changed, I tapped his shoulder making him turn around, smiling. "Your face is tear stain free." He spoke, lightly kissing my forehead. I looked down feeling uncomfortable. I was under the impression that he got the message, since he backed away from me slightly while looking at me while clenching his jaw. . "Let's get you to bed," He said, taking my dirty clothes from my hands and throwing them into the hamper. I followed him into the bedroom before he pulled down the comforter and guided me into the big king sized bed. His hand caressed my cheek, his thumb lightly running over my bottom lip as he stared intently at them. I stood there allowing him to touch my face not knowing what would happen if I didn't since he obviously had anger issues. He removed his big warm hand from my face and walking to the other side of the bed. He removed his shirt and pants leaving him in boxers before sliding into the bed. I felt his hand touch my hip making me jump a little bit. I tensed causing him to gently rub my hip, "I'm not going to hurt you." he whispered in my ear causing shivers to run up my spine. I nodded as he pulled me further back into him until my back was pressed to his chest. "It's either this or handcuffs and I don't think your wrist can handle the cuffs," he said holding my sore wrist in his hands before kissing the red marks and grabbing my hand. Tears brimmed my eyes and soon tears started pouring out of my eyes on to his bare chest. "Don't cry baby." he said quietly while sighing, rubbing my back gently. Those words didn't stop the tears and I soon found myself falling asleep while crying.
