Author's Note: This is part II of Daddy's Little Girl. This chapter was really hard for me to write, my OC is in no way a reflection of me but it was still very emotional. And I'll admit I even cried a little. This chapter is also very graphic. If in anyway you feel like it is too much to handle, you can always let me know okay. I hope you all enjoy!
Here's Part II
After spending all day trying to get a flight back to Atlanta, it was now 5:35 in the evening, as Joe walked through the terminal at Hartsfield-Jackson International airport. He was tired and beat down and just wanted to go home. This would be his first night at home without Jessica being there and he played on some much-needed downtime to think. So many emotions were running through him, he needed to clear his mind. He planned on going to check Lexi as promised, and then head home, however he had no idea what he was getting ready to walk into.
Lexi walked into the entrance of the apartment complex. She was completely exhausted. After her classes she went for a quick gym workout, then she decided to go shopping for her job interview on Monday. She had two large shopping bags with her, her gym bag, and the book bag she kept all her paperwork and booklets in from the drug classes. She made her way over to the elevators; Sammie appeared behind her and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Excuse me miss, do you need help," he asked too happy. She stood there hesitantly.
"No thank you. I'll manage," she replied turning away from Sammie's gaze. Something about him just creeped her out, and the feeling of his hot breath on the back of her neck made her nervous.
"Aw come on, I insist," he replied grabbing the bags from her hand and entered the elevator. Still a bit nervous she went along with it and followed him inside.
"So how did you and Joe meet?" he asked. They were the only two in the elevator.
"Um, we went to school together," she replied. She looked straight ahead at the elevator doors. Finally it reached the fourth floor and she spirited out of the elevators doors and down the hall to the apartment. She turned her key in the door and slowly opened it a little as Sammie finally caught up to her.
"Thanks a lot Sam.." But she was cut off by surprise as he pushed her down onto the floor. She crawled away backward trying to get up on her feet. She saw the evil in that smirk on his face. She knew what would come next. She felt the tears swell her face.
"Don't thank me just yet," Sammie replied has he kicked the door close. A scared Lexi still on the floor, he pulled off the belt from around his waist and starting walking towards her… He was ready to have himself some fun with the sexy little redbone.
Joe walked inside of the entrance to the apartment complex. He noticed Sammie not in his usual place, which was usually behind the front desk in the lobby. 'He must be off tonight,' he thought to himself as he headed for the elevators. Once he got to the fourth floor he felt that same feeling of panic that he felt in Florida. His pace started to increase; once he got a few doors away from his apartment he heard loud screaming. He realized it was from his apartment and he ran to the door he spotted bags on the floor in front of the door, he then turned the knob. It was unlocked. He stormed inside to see the most horrifying sight he would ever see in his life, he walked in to find a helpless Lexi pinned under Sammie as he laid on top of her. Her clothes were ripped to shreds and Sammie's pants were unbuttoned. Joe instantly ran over dragging an unaware Sammie off of her. Joe saw red, he was angry and he planned to kill this man. Once Sammie was off of her Joe balled Sammie shirt up into his fist so Sammie could look into his eyes. Sammie was terrified. He didn't expect Joe to be there, he was supposed to be out-of-town. Before Sammie could utter a word, Joe free fist piledrived into Sammie's nose knocking him back down. Joe wouldn't stop punching him. He spotted the blood from Sammie's nose and mouth pour out but he didn't care. He yanked Sammie up like he was a dummy doll, and threw Sammie's limp body across the table, knocking over the glass. Joe was sure Sammie's face was cut up from the broken glass. He slammed Sammie against the door, and lifted him up by his shirt as his back was now pinned to the door. Joe looked at Sammie's bloody and cut up face.
"YOU SON OF A BITCH. I TRUSTED YOU," Joe said. Sammie tried to talk but he was near unconsciousness. Joe slammed his limp body again against the door, this time causing Sammie to hit his head, causing that to bleed as well. Joe picked Sammie up and dragged him all the way down to the lobby leaving a trail of blood to follow. Many of the workers and bystanders in the lobby stood in shock. Joe dropped him down in the middle of the lobby. He heard someone yelling, "Call the police." Joe just walked off to the side, still breathing heavy. He didn't even notice that he was crying as it mixed in with the sweat that poured down his face, and he didn't realize that his knuckles were bleeding neither.
"Sir are you okay, what just happened son," an elderly woman asked. She knew Joe lived in the building. He remembered him has a sweet young guy, who didn't cause any trouble. Joe just nodded his head. His chest weaving in and out as he was breathing heavily.
"This motherfucker just tried raping my friend," he replied between breaths.
"Well you calm down son, the police is own the way. I'm guessing the paramedics too. You beat that young man pretty bad. I haven't seen a beating like that ever. He's pretty jacked up over there. That young woman, whoever she is must mean a lot to ya," the elderly woman replied smiling lightly. She slowly got up from the seat next to Joe and walked away, leaving Joe there with his thoughts and emotions.
The paramedics and police finally arrived. They took Sammie away in an ambulance, but once at the hospital he would be treated and then sent off to jail. He had to have stitches in his head and on his face. Joe gave a police report and was also treated from his bruised and bleeding knuckles. Joe wasn't taken into police custody; they let him go free without charges of assault. Joe made his way back up to the apartment, fearing the type of shape Lexi was in. He carried her bags that were sprawled out on the hallways floor, inside the apartment. He blamed himself. If he hadn't left her this wouldn't have happened. This was all his fault. He promised he wouldn't let anything happen to her and he broke his promise. He entered the apartment. Blood seemed to be spilled everywhere and the shattered glass still on the floor. He spotted Lexi sitting in the corner. Her knees were up to her chest and she rested her head on them. She was crying. It broke Joe's heart to see her like this.
"Lexi," Joe said his voice low. He felt a lump forming in his throat, and tears swelling into his eyes. She looked up at him. Her eye was black, dried blood was formed in the corner of her mouth. Her face was literally black and blue. She jumped up and ran into Joe's arms. He felt her body melt to the ground, and he followed her down to the floor. She wrapped her arms around his neck and cried hard and loudly into his chest. It was an ugly sight. Snot formed on his shirt and everything, but he didn't care he just let her cry. She cried about everything. This cry was well over due. All the bad in her life, the hurt, the suffering, the embarrassment, the disrespect, everything she left it right there on the floor of Joe's apartment and in his strong arms.
You are never too old or too grown to just cry,
See you gotta let out sometime
Sit in a corner and cry
Hug on a pillow and cry
Scream to the top of your lungs
And just cry.
Joe rested his chin into Lexi's auburn hair, the scent of lavender filled his nose. A tear or two fell from his eyes, as she wept into his shirt. Lexi cried so long and hard, she caught a headache. She lifted her head from Joe's chest and he looked down into her eyes. Those gray eyes were cold, yet sincere. She knew he was angry but hurt all at the same time. There was a big round wet spot on his shirt were she cried into. They both noticed it and smiled as their eyes met. She extended her neck up so her lips could touch his. She felt a shock wave run down her spine as her and Joe's lips brushed against each other. She was sure he felt it too. His sweet soft lips brought back memories of their first time together. She thought that their first time would be their last, but she was wrong. Joe pulled away from the kiss softly, and opened his eyes to look at her. He spoke softly,
"I don't think we should do this," he replied. She looked disappointed, she wanted him to make this all better. She got up from off the floor where she was sitting between his legs, and stared at him.
"Joe, I think I'm ready to tell you what really happened to me," she replied. Joe looked up her. She helped him off the floor and led him to the couch.
Joe sat on the couch still trying to process what Lexi just told him. She had come clean about everything. About her life, her childhood, everything. He still couldn't believe it. See the story is..
Her father molested Lexi at a young age. Her mother died of cancer when she was 2 years old, so that left her alone with her dad. The molestation would later turn into rape. She had become her own father's sex slave. However, she never told anyone, he had threaten to kill her if she did. The sad thing is she realized she was pregnant when she turned 17, but her father of course took her to have an abortion. That night that she shared with Joe in his car, she felt someone watching her. That person was her dad. He watched from the window of their house. She knew if he saw what was going on between her and Joe he would be furious. It was too late, he saw what he needed too and that night he nearly beat her to death, assuring her she could never see or talk to Joe again, and even transferred her out of Georgia Tech. That was the finally straw for her, so she decided to run away from home. Her father would later commit suicide after the search for her was unsuccessful and she became involved with a man who promised to protect her no matter. He would later get her strung out on drugs, and would later led to prostitution.
"It took me 3 years to get away from him," she replied looking into Joe's eyes. Joe was torn. He couldn't believe all of this had happened too her. Yet she still managed to smile.
"Lexi, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for none of this to happen," Joe replied.
"Don't apologize. It's not your fault. It's mine," she replied. The tears starting to swell into her eyes.
"Don't say that," he said lifting her chin for her to look at him.
"Yes it is. I brought this on myself," she replied in between tears as she tried not to meet his gaze.
"You listen to me. You are beautiful, smart, and one of the best woman I know. Probably the strongest. I will never let anything happen to you ever again," Joe replied now on the verge of tears himself.
"Joe I know how much you want to mean that but," Lexi replied but was cut off.
"No buts, I mean that. You will never have to cry over another man, you hear me," he said. He kissed her forehead. He wouldn't let another person hurt her again. But sadly, little did he know, he would become the last person to hurt her when it will be all said and done.
"Please NO," Lexi screamed as she crawled on the floor trying to get away from her attacker. Sammie would then pull of his belt,
"Don't thank me just yet," he would say before he slapped her across her face with his belt. She felt the hot rubber of the belt burn her skin as this man whipped her and she lied there crying and helpless. He ripped her skirt off of her and he lifted her up against the wall. He tried yanking her jeans off; he wanted to bang her right against that wall. He could feel his cock tighten, but a large sharp pain ran through him as she knead him in his penis. This caused her some time and he huddle over in pain. She attempted to run, but he tackled her down to the ground.
"Where the fuck you think you're going? Show me some of the things you show Joe," he replied as he gripped his body over her pinning her to the ground. He tried kissing her neck, and then her lips, but she bite his ear. This now making him upset he slapped her across the face. She could taste the salty taste of her own blood on her tongue. He revealed his penis from his boxer as he ripped off her jeans and then her panties. She kicked and screamed loudly,
"Get off of me! Please don't do this," she begged. Sammie just smirked her.
"Imagine me as Joe. I'll bet it would make you feel better," as he spat into her face. He grabbed hold of his cock, still holding her down with one hand, and he attempted to shove it inside of her. But before he could enter her, she saw her hero in the doorway..
All Lexi kept hearing was her name being called, but she couldn't open her mouth to speak. It was like her lips were sealed shut. All she could do was make muffling noises. She felt a hand touch her back and stomach but this hand was gently.
"Lexi. Lexi. LEXI," Joe screamed trying to wake her up. It had to be 2:30 in the morning and she just started kicking and punching him upside his head. She had asked him to stay the night, and he accepted. So here they are in his old bedroom, and now she was beating the crap outta him. Her eyes finally popped open as she sat up on the bed. Sweat poured down her forehead, Joe lent over and turned on the lamp next to him, on the side of the bed.
"Lex, are you okay?" Joe asked. She just shook her head yes. The look of panic still on her face. She began to cry again, this time out of fear. Joe got up and grabbed a cool wet towel for her. He wiped off the sweat from her chest and head with it and offered her a bottle of water. She accepted.
"I'm sorry," she replied her voice low.
"What do you keep apologizing for?" he asked looking into her eyes.
"For putting you through this," she said.
"You're not putting me through anything," he replied. Lex just looked down at the floor. She looked up at him, and knew that he cared. She began to realize that she might actually be in love with this man.
"Don't you worry about anything, you hear me? Now get some sleep," he replied. He lifted the covers for her to get back under them and he turned over on his side, he was exhausted.
"Joe," she called his name sweetly from behind him.
"Yeah," he said.
"Can you um, hold me. It's the only way I feel safe," she said. Joe turned over and looked into her eyes. They were dark and sad. She turned back over so that her back was facing Joe. He lent in closer to her resting his arm across her stomach, as he nestled his face into her hair.
"Of course," he whispered. Not long after that they were both fast asleep and they laid there and spooned.
Song lyrics are from the song Cry by Tynisha Keli. That song inspired this chapter in a major way, so that's why I decided to add those song lyrics.

Please Review! It would mean, as always a lot to me. And thanks for my loyal readers for these story, I love you guys.
