Kevin and I have been staying together at a motel.
It's really boring and Kevin won't let me leave. He said if I leave I risk us being found by the hospital again.
Kevin went out though to get food and some stuff he said he needed, So I have just been sitting around or cleaning.
I keep recalling what happened before we escaped. When that man was about to strip me naked. I know for a fact that is not allowed, yet that's what he was about to do?
What would he have done once he got my clothes off?
I'm happy Kevin was there to save me.
"I'm back." I hear the door click. Kevin walks in with bags of food and other necessities.
I guess I'm also happy Kevin is taking care of me and risking it to go out and get the things we need.
I understand Kevin is a monster but even so he is still Kevin.
"Are you okay? Your face is really pale?"
I break out of thought to Kevin's words. Before I can respond Kevin crawls onto the bed I am laying in and gently presses his hands on my cheeks.
"You have a fever," Kevin says with a concerned expression.
"I feel fine Kevin," I say with honesty to my tone.
I seriously feel completely fine, it's a little warm in here but I feel okay.
Plus I'm over my period and so now I should be feeling way better than I already am.
"Alright, but I'm just going to at least take care of your fever. Just rest while I go boil water and get the medicine." Kevin gets up and walks into the little kitchen with all his bags.
When he comes back he has a hot cup of water and his other hand has something clenched in it, must be the medicine.
Kevin sits upon the little bed and hands me the water.
"Open your mouth," Kevin says with his clenched hand raised to my mouth.
I hesitantly open my mouth.
Kevin drops two tablets onto my tongue and then gestures for me to drink the hot water.
I drink the hot water and swallow the two tablets.
Kevin smiles happily.
"You trusted me," Kevin says genuinely happy.
"Yes, of course, I trusted you, Kevin. I trust you." I say sincerely.
Kevin smiles and then gets up off the bed. "I have to go out one more time but I will be back okay?"
I feel a bit disappointed but Kevin's gotta do what Kevin's gotta do. I nod and then Kevin grabs his coat and takes his leave.
I decide to take a nice shower. I get into the bathroom and strip. I turn into the mirror and look at myself in the mirror. I look at my scars in the mirror, I touch them, I feel the very fine line.
'That man was going to fuck you right in front of Kevin.' I hear the familiar voice of Claud.
No! Don't say that! I don't want to hear it, Claud!
'Who cares, that's the truth so get used to it. He would have fucked your pure virgin body and fucked and fucked and fucked and fucked! Then Kevin would have joined in and..."
NO! YOUR WRONG LEAVE ME ALONE! GET OUT OF MY FUCKING HEAD!
'Just face it! You know I am right! I am the only one you need to just kill Kevin already!'
