I Got You Baby

I wake up to someone brushing my hair off my face and behind my ear. I try to open my eyes but they wont open. Why can't I see? I try to open my mouth to speak but it wont open either.

"Why hasn't she woken up yet?" I hear a distant male voice ask. Who was that? And why can't I open my eyes?

"I don't know. Her body has been through a lot of pain Boss, you just have to wait and see," A female voice answered him trying to soothe his mind.

I hear footsteps getting louder and louder and the bed dips. A hand is placed in mine and a kiss is planted on my forehead. I want him to know I can hear him, but every time I try to open my mouth, nothing comes out. What is happening to me?

"Come back to me baby," Andrew whispered with hurt in his voice.

I'm right here. I'm alive. I can hear you. HELP ME. I scream, but no one heard me. Can I move my body? I try my hardest to squeeze Andrew's hand.

"Meredith! Meredith! She just squeezed my hand!" I hear Andrew shout. Footsteps come running and something cold goes on my chest. Then to my other side. "Is she okay? What's happening?" I can hear the panic in his voice.

"I think she's trying to wake up. Rose? Rose can you hear us?"

"Yes." I reply, but nothing comes out.

"Squeeze my hand if you can hear me," Andrew says. I try to squeeze his hand again. This time, I can feel my fingers curl, I know I squeezed his hand.

"She squeezed my hand." he said with hope in his voice. He squeezed my hand back and I tried my hardest to open my eyes. "Her eyes! Meredith!" He shouted.

I open my eyes to see Meredith and Andrew both staring at me. "I need some water." I said, my voice sounded hoarse and dry.

"I'll get it," Meredith said walking out of the room.

"How are you feeling?" Andrew asked. I looked at him and could tell he hasn't slept in a few days, his eyes had dark circles under them and his hair is a mess and greasy looking. I reach my hand up and touch his cheek. He closes his eyes and absorbs my touch. He put his hand on top of mine and brought it to his lips, kissing it. "God I missed that."

"I heard you. Every word. Thank you for being here." I said as a tear slid down my face. I smiled at him and he smiled back. He brought his face down to mine and placed a light kiss on my lips. He presses his forehead against mine and I take a deep breath. "I'm feeling better now that I'm awake."

Meredith walks through the door and brings me a glass of water. I thanked her and she left us alone. Andrew gets up and locks the door and mumbled something about alone time. He walks back to me and sits next to me.

"I had Meredith take all the cords off about 2 days ago since your health was better. You've been out for a week." He says not meeting my eyes. He lowers his head and looks at me with tears covering his eyes. "Why would you do that to yourself again Rose? I know you were in pain, but killing yourself? That's never the answer. You could've talked to me." He finishes, setting his head in his hands and rubbing his face.

"I'm sorry, when you told me that, I realized, I have nothing left to live for. My family is gone. I'm never getting out of here. Yea you want me now, but I'll always be an object to you. A whore. So why would I want to stay here?" I say while tears are running down my face. I didn't want to tell him that but it was the truth, why would I want to stay here? Just so I could go back to being raped multiple times a day? I don't have any family left, of course I want to kill myself. He'll never let me leave.

"That's not true, Rose, I love you. I'm not going to let you go back to that room. I was stupid enough to not get you out sooner but I am now, I'll get you out. I promise. Even if it's the last thing I do. I swear to you. You just need to give me time. I have to find someone to take over. Then me and you can leave this place behind. I never wanted to be here in the first place."

"Okay," I reply looking away. I didn't believe him. Why would The Boss want me? I'm used. Washed up. I'm nothing compared to the girls he could have. I shut open my mouth to say something when there's a knock at the door. Andrew sighs and gets up walking towards the door. He opens it and it's Ethan, I forgot about Ethan, he must be so worried.

"Is she up yet?" I hear him ask Andrew who was blocking his line of sight from seeing me.

"Ethan?" I say out loud moving my head to the side a little bit trying to look around Andrews body. "Come here." I say motioning for him to come here. 

Ethan pushes past Andrew and comes to my side. He grabs my hand and sits on the bed next to me. "Can we have a minute?" I asked Andrew, he clenched his jaw and balled his fists. He nods and walks out the room.

"I was so worried. I thought I was going to lose you," he choked out putting his hands on my cheeks. He had worry written all over his face. I reach my hands up and grab his hands. I pull them off my face and close my eyes.

"You don't want me," I say looking at his eyes. I started to cry, and reached up to wipe my tears away. I have to tell him the truth about everything, "I've had sex with him Ethan." I muttered not wanting to look at him. I don't think I could handle the judgement that came from his blue eyes. 

"I figured you have, the way you look at him, and the way he looks at you. But I know you feel something for me too, so I'm not giving up on you yet Rose. Okay? If there's a race to win your heart, then I'm in."

"I'm damaged though, I've been raped so many times over the past 3 years, you don't want me. I'm no good." I say sitting up in bed and burying my face in my knees. 

"Don't say that." He said grabbing my face to make me look him in the eyes. His blue eyes were staring at me with so much love and it was too much. I push his hands off me and pull the blankets off of me and stumble into the bathroom. "Rose, you don't need to be getting out of bed!" he says grabbing my arm.

"Get off me!" I shouted back to him, I needed him out of here. I get into the bathroom and shut the door in his face and lock it. I needed to be alone. This is too much! He's too much. He's too good for me. I needed to push him away. 

"Boss!" I heard Ethan shout. I hear footsteps pounding into the bedroom and quickly get closer to the bathroom door. "She locked herself in there."

"Great! What the fuck did you do? Get out! Now!" I heard Andrew yell. I hear Ethans heavy footsteps slowly start to fade and the door shuts. I hear a click and footsteps walking back towards me. I unlock the door and sit on the bathroom floor. "Rose, he's gone. Can I come in? Talk to me baby," he says gently opening the door. He looks at me and I lift my head up from my knees. He sees my puffy face and is quickly at my side, wrapping his arms around my body and pulling me to him. "I got you, let it all out,"

"I just don't know what you or him sees in me, I'm worthless. I feel so alone right now. Yea you're here but for how long? I literally have nothing left. Nothing. I'm stuck in freaking sex trafficing, I don't want to be here. I've been here for 3 years. Who in the world can last that long in one of these places?" I ask looking at him. "Kill me please. Put me out of my misery Andrew." I pleaded. He clenches his jaw and a tear slowly escapes his eye.

"I'm not going to kill you and I won't let you kill youself. I meant everything I said earlier, I will get you out of here Rose. Just give me a few days. I have to figure some stuff out. Okay? Can you please just, wait a few days? Then I will get you out of here."

I nod and sink into his chest. I let out a few sobs and hiccups, but he doesn't protest, he just holds me and continues caressing my side. I nuzzle my head deeper into him and press my ear against his chest, listening to his heart beat. I let myself relax and start to think, maybe he does love me, maybe he does want to get me out of here, as my eyes become heavier and heavier.

"I love you Rose" was the last thing I heard before I fell asleep.
