Chapter One
Sam McCall came to with a groan and put her hand on her head. She was laying on a cold floor on her back. "Wha.. what happened?" she asked outloud in a whisper. She couldn't remember at the moment and wished she could. Suddenly it hit her what happened hours earlier and she wished she didn't remember at all.
Flashback
Sam McCall was walking home after having lunch with Patrick Drake at Kelly's. They had lunch together and he had to get back to the hospital to finish up his shift in the next few hours. And after he got off he was coming to pick her up for a nice night out of dancing, dinner, and ending back at his place finaly. Ah now that is my kind of night Sam thought to herself with a smile.
Suddenly out of the blue a gloved hand reached out of the allyway she walking by and dragged her in. One arm was around her waist and the hand was over her mouth so no one could hear her scream. She kicked and struggled but the person was strong and wouldn't let her go.
She was dragged into a warehouse and it was pitch black inside and she couldn't see anything. The figure flung her away from them and she hit the ground hard and groaned. Oh no oh no she kept repeating to herself in her head. She wanted to know who was doing this to her. She thought after her and Jason ending almost one year ago and her getting with Patrick Drake meant she was safe from all this.
She reached out in the darkness and felt around for something when her hand touched something that felt like cinder block. That must be the wally she thought to herself. She kept her hand on the wall as she stood up and put her back to it. She felt a bit safe feeling something solid at her back.
She hoped her eyes would adjust to the darkness soon so she could figure out where she was and who had her. She hated siuations like this because you never know who is crazy enough to take you. Maybe it is some pyscho nurse who thinks that I took Patrick from her she thought to herself. Suddenly bright lights flooded the place and she had to keep blinking to adjust to her eyes and focus. And when she was focused she saw Manny Ruiz.
"Hello Sweetness" Manny said walking over to the table in the middle of the room and taking the gloves off and throwing them on the table. "I hope I didn't scare you" he smirked. "Oh well if I did I am glad."
"You sick freak" Sam growled out. "What do you want with me?" she demanded. Even though she had a feeling she already knew. "And why the hell do you want me anymore anyway? I am not with Jason so it wouldn't hurt him, so go after little Miss Robin Scorpio and leave me alone."
"I don't want her" Manny told Sam calmly. "And I love it when you get mad baby your so much more of a turn on" he smirked at her. He loved seeing her like this all scared but also mad, and disgusted with him more then anything. "She has nothing on you, and after I saw you it was never about Morgan, it was all about you. I watched you every since I first saw you and I am still watching you."
"What is special about me that you just have to have me?" Sam asked rolling her eyes at him. Manny was a sick freak that would get his one day and Sam would make sure she was the one to give him what he deserved.
"Well everyone is just plain scared of me. But no not you Sweetness , you hate me, and are disgusted by the sight of me. You fear me but the other feelings and emotions for me over shadow that fear. And it turns me on that you are a woman that can stand up to me" he said walking closer.
Oh no Sam said looking around, she was stuck against the wall between two crates that there was no way she could get over with out him catching her. "Nice to know my utter hate and disgust and wishing you were in hell right now turn you on" she said icely.
"Keep it up baby your just turning me on anymore. And your not getting out of here not till I say you can go. The door is locked and only I have the key hidden, and the windows are nailed shut and have bars on the other side. I have been thinking of doing this a nice long time." Manny stped up closer to her and grabbed her and pulled her against him.
Sam struggled but Manny was strong and she couldn't get out of his grip. She knew this time that she wouldn't get away with just a few bruises from him. She hoped that when she got out and went to the hospital that Patrick wasn't working. She didn't want to see his face when he found out what happened.
"Oohh yeah keep that up baby that gets to me feeling you all moving against me" Manny smirked. He dragged her up the steps to the place he created as his own place on the second floor of the warehosue. It was just like a regular aparment and he picked her up and threw her over his shoulder.
"Oh god you have been planning this" Sam groaned as she was flung over his shoulder. So this is where he has been hiding out she said looking around the apartment, the first floor must be for buisness she said to herself. She needed to keep thinking so she wouldn't go nuts.
"Of course I have and now it all comes to head" Manny said excitly. He threw Sam on bed and jumped on top of her. "And all the walls are sound proof so that means that no one can hear you scream but me" he said evily. "And I love it when you scream." He got his knife and cut her clothes off of her. And then he stripped himself.
Sam did try to fight him but she couldn't stop him. For the new few hours Manny rapped her bruitaly leaving a mark on her soul for the rest of her life. Making sure she would never forget this or him. And to make manners worse after he was satisfied he tied her to the bed and tattoed his name on her hip and then beat her. When she was uncousoius he untied her and got dressed.
He picked her up in his arms gently and grabbed a shirt and threw it over her body and carried her down the stairs and laid he on the floor near the door. "Remember I will be watching you Sweetness" he said to her unconcious form. "I will follow you no matter where you go and what you do." Then he slipped out of the warehouse and hid to keep a eye on her and follow her when she leaves.
End of flashback
"Oh no no no" Sam said starting to shake. The thing she feared most that Manny would do to her happened. "No no no no no" she said rocking back and forth. She had to get out of here before he came back for more. She stood up shakily on her legs and put on the shirt that was somehow next to her. She had to get to the hospital and get checked out. Her rational mind was starting to take over. She left the warehouse sticking to the ally's as she made her way back to the hospital.
Meanwhile Manny was following closely behind Sam. He knew where she was going and was glad that he thought ahead of time to pretend to write a note for Patrick Drake from her. "He should of known to stay away from what is mine" he whispered.
Patrick Drake showed up at the Metrocourt to meet Sam for dinner like she asked him to. He was glad that she did leave him a note so he wouldn't be worried about her. He ignored the fact that in the back of his mind he knew something was up. When she didn't show up in the next to hours he was mad and upset at her for standing him up. He thought they had a good thing together but he must be wrong. So he went home and just laid on his bed ignoring all calls from the hospital.
Sam showed up at the hopstial not long after she left the warehouse and when the nurses saw her they rushed her into a room. She told the doctors what happened but not who did it and they did a rape kit test on her. It came back positive so they had that evidence. Dr. Kelly Lee excused herself.
"Call Patrick Drake" Kelly Lee told Robin after she walked out of the room. "Tell him Sam McCall is here and needs him now." She knew that Patrick would want to be here and despite Sam's calm she would break down and would need Patrick here. She would mention this to Lainey to be on the look out in case Sam would come in for counsling.
"Okay but what is wrong?" Robin asked confused. "Why would Sam need him here of all people." Robin was with Jason for almost a year now but it still hurt that once again Patrick wanted someone other then her for a commited relationship. And it doesn't help that at one point in time that Jason was also invovled with Sam.
"I can't tell you that" Kelly told Robin. "Just please call him" she said before turning and walking back into the room. "I sent the blood work down to the lab so we can find out who did this and see if your pregnant. Are you sure you don't know who did this?"
"No I don't sorry" Sam mumbled and looked down. She was now afraid if she told it was Manny that next time she wouldn't come out of it alive or else he would kidnap her and make sure she didn't see the people she loved ever again.
"No no don't be sorry" Kelly told Sam. She put a comforting hand on Sam's shoulder and stood there like that offering the other young woman her support. Twenty minutes later there was a knock on the exam room door and she steped out and saw Robin. "Did you get a hold of Patrick?"
"No he wasn't answering his phone or pager" Robin told Kelly. She was trying to figure out what Sam could be here for but she just couldn't think what in all honesty. "Do you want me to keep trying?"
"Yeah and do it as long as you have to" Kelly instructed. She watched Robin walk of and breathed out. She couldn't tell her what happened because it would break patient confidentialty pluse also Robin hated Sam and might gloat that this happened to Sam and not her. Just then the lab tech handed Kelly the lab results and she looked at the chart and sighed and walked back into the room. "Sam I just got the lab results" she said gently.
"Yeah? And what do they say?" Sam demanded. She wanted to know what to expect and what to do down the road.
"Well you have no std's but... your pregnant" Kelly told her gently. "I am really sorry about this."
"It is not your fault it is mine for walking home alone. And it could be Patrick's baby anyway" Sam shrugged. "I guess I can go home now right?"
"Yes of course we brought you some clothes" Kelly said indicating the clothes on the chair. "You get dressed and I will get you the paper work to sign."
Sam nodded and watched her leave and quickly got dressed. And in those few minutes she decided the best thing for her to do would be leave and not come back till after the baby is born and then by looking at the baby she can see who it looks like. Kelly walked back in and Sam signed the papers and quickly left the hospital.
Sam called up Alexis and told her what happened also leaving out it was Manny that did this and left out the baby to just saying she wanted to get away for awhile. Alexis told her a plane would be waiting to take her to Greece and she could go from there where she wanted to. When she got back to her place she packed up all her stuff and had moving men come and put her furnatuire and appliances and dishes and other stuff in storage. But she took every piece of clothign, shoes, jewelry, pictures, and journals, and other personal items that she wanted with her.
Three hours later she was on the plane on her way to Greece to start a new life. She had no idea where she would go from there yet or even if she would go anywhere else. But she was starting a new life over so no one has to be tainted by what happened to her.
Manny watched the plane take off knowing where it was going and he would soon be on a plane following her. He meant it when he told her would follow her where ever she goes. Now he will take care of any other man that thinks they can touch her and have her like Patrick thought he could.
Patrick decided enough was enough of this and just confront Sam. But first thing first he would call the hospital and see what they wanted. After talking to Kelly Lee he was in a panick and raced over to Sam's apartment. When the door was open he looked in and saw it empty but a note for him was on the floor. And when he read it he broke down in tears realizing that he lost the one woman he truely did love, and the first woman other then his mother to ever make him cry.
(P.S.- This what the note said, Dear Patrick, If your reading this I am on my way to a different country right now. Please don't find me I just need to get away. I was raped tonight and I couldn't stay in Port Charles. Please know that I did and still love you but it is to painful to be here right now. I will come back one day, I am not sure when, but I will come back to you one day Patrick Drake. I love you and will miss you and think of you always, Love always Sam McCall.)
