Chapter 10
"Perfect." Randy said as positioned Cody in front of the monitor in the house. Cody was tied to a chair and blindfolded. He removed the blindfold. Randy whacked him the face to wake up. "I have something to show you." Cody blinked repeatedly as he came to. He could barely make out the television monitor that was in front of him. "You think Mary is so perfect? She isn't."
As the screen came into focus he saw Mary and Ted talking. Ted holding her and her looking into his eyes, it couldn't be. His heart broke as he watched Ted kiss her as the tears poured down her face. "No." They had to be comforting each other they had to be. He thought as he watched Ted climb on top of her. "Turn it off, please."
Randy laughed. "I knew if I put them there together that they'd fuck like rabbits. She loves Ted. Not you and not me."
His eyes filled with tears as listened to Randy talked and watched the displays of affection on the screen. "It's not true. She's just scared."
"We both know you don't really believe that. You can't convince me or yourself that that is even true."
Tears fell down his cheek as he looked up at Randy, "You, you've done this to her."
"It was already inside her."
"No, Mary is not a monster you are."
Randy punched him in the face and Cody spit blood out of his mouth. "If you had just left us alone, it never would have been this way."
"Ohhh, wahhhhh did I ruin your perfect life?"
"Fuck you," he hissed unable to fight the tears that were escaping his eyes.
"We can arrange that," he said grinning. "Soon though, it'll just be Mary, the baby and me."
"You better stay away from my baby."
Randy's ears perked up, "Your baby?"
"I can't believe you think you are so smart but you never figured it out. That baby is mine. Not yours. You could never create something so delicate and beautiful."
Randy hit him. He hit him again and again until Cody was gasping for air and Randy regained his thoughts. "Fuck you, Rhodes." He quickly cut the ropes that bound the younger man and rolled him over, penetrating him. With all he had left he screamed out in pain.
"Cody!" Mary shot up from the table out of Ted's arms.
"What?"
"You didn't hear him scream? Their here."
"Mary, I didn't hear anything," he said as he watched her get dressed.
"I have to get out. I have to help him."
"You can't get out." He said getting up and dressing himself as well.
She was becoming hysterical as she began to cry. "No, no, no I have to get out. I have to get Cody."
Ted tried to calm her down, but she kept pushing him away until she fell to the floor with no energy left but to cry. He didn't know what to do, he was beside himself.
Cody lay on the floor bleeding barely alive while Randy stood over him pulling up his pants. "It's such a shame that I have to do this, but all good things come to an end. Once you're done, than Ted and than that goddamned bitch."
Helplessly, Cody laid their defeated. He was unable to fight back and all he could do was cry. His eyes had swelled shut and his body was on fire, there wasn't a part of him that didn't hurt.
"Any last words before you die?" Randy asked.
"Tell her," he coughed out, "that I will always love her."
Randy laughed as he picked him up and dragged the knife across his throat. "I'll tell her alright. Right when she is taking her last breath." Than he dropped Cody's limp body to floor.
