I can't ever find the motivation to write,,.,,..((!)???!'b?

Vic's POV

Laurie was fast asleep in the back seat of our car.

"Hey Mike, do you think she would want to go back to San Diego with us?"

"I don't know, let's wait until she feels a bit better to talk about that. And hey, the police have some questions so I'll handle that and book a hotel room."

Mike stepped out of the car and I decided to move to the back seat.

I quietly opened the door, sat down, and gently held her in my arms.

"Hey Laurie, everything is okay now alright? I'm so happy to see you again. Would you like to come back to San Diego with me? I've missed you an awful lot. We can go to that pizza place you always nag about, or that ice cream shop. I love you. I really do love you." I whispered into her tousled hair, knowing she couldn't hear me.

She nuzzled her face into my chest, as if she were conveying her agreement.

And I just stared at her- blankly, yet full of raw, vulnerable emotion. Silently, yet needing to declare to the world my incessant love for her. Cautiously, yet wanting to break every single boundary between us. I just stared at her.

Mike opened the door and I reluctantly glanced towards his direction.

"Here." He tossed me a light blanket. "I handled everything."

"Thanks, Mike."

Laurie's POV

I felt him slip his rough, unwelcoming hands between my legs. My eyes were closed, but I knew they were his. He clasped his other hand over my lips, already bubbling with hatred.

"You miss me, don't you?

No I don't.

"You dream about being touched by me."

No I don't.

"Well you're in for a treat, babygirl." He removed his hand. "I'll make you feel good again, just like before."

He flipped me around and climbed on top of me, pinning my arms up with one hand and removed my pants with the other. Tears welled up in my eyes to no end, and he glanced at me once more.

"Laurie."

No.

"Laurie."

Stop. Stop stop stop.

"Laurie!"

Get the fuck away from me!

I think my eyes opened. It's blurry. I'm sweaty. Uncomfortable.
I think my heart is racing? I just feel hot. Very silent though. Soothing.
Something. Something big, but not too big. What is it doing in front of me?

Eyes. Brownish? Big. Staring at me?
Skin. Caramel. Sweet and inviting. Laced with a few drops of sweat?
Arms? Not mine. Reaching towards me? I think so.
Hands? Sweaty. Very sweaty. And hot. On my face?
Lips. Moving fast? Can't make out what they are saying.

"- aur-!" What is this? "Are"?

"L- ie!" I can't understand you silly. You need to speak up!

"Laur-" Oh, you're calling for me? What's wrong?

"Laurie, please, if you can hear me, just say something.. Please.."

Why is he crying? .. He, right? Long hair, but male features? Yeah, definitely a he. Oh god! I'm such an idiot! It's Vic, haha. I must've lost a lot of blood. How did I not recognize him?

"It's okay Vic, don't worry about it. I'll be fine. Can I talk to Tony for a second? Alone?"

He stared at me blankly, in shock. "Tony? Why do you need to seem him? More importantly, are you okay? You kept screaming and yelling at me." He questioned, with concern in his voice.

"What do you mean? You know about it right, about how he saved me? And I must've had a nightmare." Even though I don't recall it.

"Laurie, I was there, with Mike. We put him in jail remember?"

"Vic, this isn't a fucking joke. The police weren't even involved! You're trying to take the credit? Were your hands stained with my blood last night? I know it was him who lifted me out of the tub! I know it! You don't have any fucking idea about what happened or how I feel, you left me!"

God, I'm so sorry for not updating. It's really been forever and I've forgotten most of the stuff that happened in this story. This is all I can give right now, I know it's short. For all those who are confused, reread chapter 3 and you will understand. If you're still confused, inbox me! I read all messages and I will most likely reply! Actually no, even if you aren't confused, message me anyway! I like friends.
Thank you for sticking with me and giving this piece so many reads and votes. (:
