Falling for her/him

Chapter 62

David's POV
~2 Days later~

It's been two days and I haven't heard or seen Alesha. Her cars gone and some of her things are gone and I can't find her anywhere.

"David, she'll be back soon." Amanda says softly and wraps her arm around me.

"I hope so." I say taking a sip of my coffee.

Alesha's POV

I wake up to a bright light in my face and can move my body becasue I'm so sore. I slowly sit up and beside me is the bartender and as I go to try to get away but his arm wraps around me.

"Where do you think your going?" he growls.

"I-I need to go to the bathroom." I whimper. He lets me go and I walk to the bathroom with tears stinging my cheeks. I close and lock the door and then look in the mirror. I have bruises and cuts on my face and then bruises on my body. I look over at the toliet and there's a cellphone. 'Why's there a cellphone.' I think to myself. I finally don't care and grab it, dialing  998 (thats for the police in England.) 

"This is 998, what's your emergency?" an operator asks.

"I've been kidnapped and he's raping me." I say quickly and quietly.

"Okay, ma'am where are you at?" the female asked quickly. I give my information and she tells me that there are people on their way right now. He starts banging on the door and I get scared and just lay the phone down. I open the door and he looks at me and then smiles and puts his lips to mine. He's very aggresive and I try to push away but he just pushes against me and I feel that sharp object that I know so well. I hear someone burst in the door and he drops the knife and looks out the bathroom door. He then looks back at me and wraps his hands around my neck tightly. I feel my airway closing and things start to get blurry and then it goes away and I fall to the ground. 

"Are you okay?" a cop asked as he kneels in front of me. I nod softly and he picks me up and carries me to an ambulance. "Is there anyone I can call or anywhere I can take you?" he asks.

"My husband at my best friends house." I say and realize my voice is really horse. He nods and once I'm cleaned up I give him directions and he drives me to Amanda's. He leads me to the door and rings the bell. Instantly the door is answered by Amanda and she looks at me in awe and then pulls me to her.

"Are you okay?" she asks. I just nod my head and then walk to the guest room. I lay on the bed and a few minutes later David comes in and he sees me.

"Alesha." he whispers and I can hear the whimper in his voice. I slowly stand up and walk over to him and then hug his neck tightly and he wraps his strong arms around my thin body even tighter. I wince because he pressed on a bruise that's on my rib cage and the other small ones all over. He pulls away and looks at me with worry written all over his face. "I'm sorry baby." he says and pulls me closer to him. I pull away from him to go to the bathroom that's connected to our guest room. I walk in and start the shower and then close the door. I don't want David to see the bruises because I know it will break his heart. I begin to pull off my clothes and once I'm completly naked I step in the shower and begin to wash myself.

David's POV

Alesha pulls away from me and walks to the bathroom in silence. I don't know what happened to her because Amanda won't tell me. She just was crying after she talked to the cop and now I don't know what to do. After about twenty minutes Alesha walks into the room with a towel wrapped around her small frame. I sit on the edge of the bed and notice she has a bruise peeking out of the top of her towel. I reach for her hand and she stops and looks at me. Pulling her over to in between my legs I slowly reach up and undo her towel, as it falls to the floor bruises are revealed all over her body. Especially a huge one on her rib cage. I look in her eyes that are now glossed over and her hands are shaking. I take one hand in mine and the other on her hip.

Alesha's POV

I feel David put one of his hands in mine and then the other around my hip. I feel his cold lips touch my skin and he kisses a bruise that's on my stomach, he keeps going until he gets to the one on my rib cage and he just softly grazes his lips against my skin. I feel tears running down my face because of how much he actually cares for me and loves me. When he's finally standing he looks down at my face and reaches up, wiping away my tears. He pulls me into his warm embrace and in that moment I don't care that I'm naked or that my body is sore and hurting. I only care that I'm with him. I want to memorize his smell, touch, and even his looks. I eventually feel him pick me up and lay me down on the bed and then he lays beside me, holding me tightly. I feel covers come over my body and a hand intertwine with mine. I look up and he's looking down at me. Everything about him says I love you. He doesn't have to say a word because I know he does just because he shows me.

"I love you Alesha." he whispers.

"I love you too David." I mumble back, kissing his cheek and then falling asleep.

Amanda's POV

Once the cop leaves I feel my body weaken. I was such an ass to her and she got hurt so badly. I just brush it aside and continue my day by going and getting Eric. I only have three more days with Simon before he leaves. That's not a lot of time to be with him so, Eric and I will spend all day with him. Eric and I walk into our room and there is Simon just laying on the bed like a starfish. I giggle and sit Eric on top of him and Eric starts bouncing. I hear him chuckle and then grab Eric and pull him down on the bed. He starts giggling his cute little laugh and I just finally decide to join the fun and jump on the bed with them. After awhile Eric falls asleep from all the fun he had so Simon carries him to his room while I change into one of his shirts. Once I'm done, Simon walks back in and shuts the door behind him.

"Never thought we would turn out like this." he says softly.

"Like what?" I ask, taking my skinny jeans off.

"Well, losing a kid, leaving you to keep you safe, and only having three days left with you." he says.

"Babe, I know. But, what we have together, lets spend it together and make it the best."  I say, putting my hands on his shoulders.

"Okay." he says, smiling. He kisses my cheek and then slips an arm around me. "So, are we gonna do A.J.'s funeral?" he asks.

"Yes. In two days." I whisper and then look down and walk into the bathroom to brush my teeth. He comes in behind me and I just lean over the counter so I can hold it together. I feel Simon's arms wrap around me and I begin to cry because I can no longer be strong for anyone. "I can't do it anymore Simon." I sob, still trying to hold myself up on the counter.

"You don't have to." he says into my neck. I nod and let my head fall back on his shoulder and my arms run right over his. Our hands intertwine and he just sways back and forth. He hums in my ear lightly and I finally calm down a bit and decide it's time to call it a night.
