Jeff tried to take Mia away from Ellie, but she refused.

"come on babe " she shook her head.

"no she can't be gone" he watched her move towards Ellie taking her hand.

" I'm sorry" jeff didnt know what else to say mia didn't reply.

" you don't get It do you jeff, I have nothing left, everything has been taken away from me" she ran passed them both of them, out of the hospital.

I didn't know where I was going, I just ran. I was outside the hospital now, collapsing into a state on the floor. I had nothing left no family, my childhood full of painful memory's. I sat crying hugging my knees. I saw Dixie 10 paces away comming slowly closer.

" I dont get it Dixie, I have nothing I'm worthless, you and jeff shouldn't care about me" I was so upset. Why should they care about me, I am worthless. I didn't notice Dixie was sitting next to me.

" Mia, your not worthless, your a lovely girl" she put her arm around my shoulder

" if I'm a lovely girl, why did he do what he did to me?looked her in the eye, I needed to know why he did what he did to me.

"I don't know why Mia, all I know is he is a sick man. You don't even know what Jeff would do if he finds him before the police do, he loves you, and so do I" The second part was true, jeff had become very protective of me over the last couple of days.

"How can he love someone that was raped by 7 different men, and couldn't do anything about it?" I didnt know how either of them could love me. Those men made me feel dirty and cheap.

" Mia it wasent your fault?" Dixie and jeff have been saying this too me over and over, but I still didn't believe it, I must have done something, I could believe this would happen for no reason.

" I could have tried to do something, get them off me, I could have screamed louder" I was shaking petrified again. It changed me what happened everything made me tense and uneasy. I couldn't do anything on my own anymore, and it's their fault.

" Mia there were so many of them, you did nothing to deserve what they did to you" she put some hair behind my ear.

I saw jeff come running towards us. Stopping several steps away, I looked up seeing his face, he had tear stains down his cheeks eyes seemed red and irritated.

" I can't do anything anymore, scared at every noise constantly looking behind my shoulder." I didnt want to live like that. jeff came nearer, sitting down infront of me.

" jeff, I'm sorry. I'm worthless that's how they have made me feel, and I can never get that back. I have nothing anymore" I saw he was looking directly at me listening to every word I said. He took hold of both my hands.

"Your the complete opposite of worthless, please belive me. Were going to get through this ok" I shook my head.

" I can't jeff"

"yes, yes you can, you just have to stay strong, you have to stay strong for me Mia please" I could see in his eyes he was begging.

"ok" I had to try, I couldn't let them win. Jeff gave me a smile.

" come on princess, let's go"jeff helped me up while Dixie held my hand. We made our way back to the car. When we got in, I went over to the sofa sitting down. Dixie followed me, meanwhile jeff checked the messages.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jeff went over to the phone checking for messages, Ther was 1. He pressed the button holding the phone to his ear.

"hello this is Annie, could jeff or Kathleen collier, call me back as soon as you get this message" jeff pressed the call button.

Then all he had to do was wait for an answer.

"hello"

"um hello I was told to call back my name is jeff collier"

"right mr collier, as you are aware Mia will be going through a tough time" jeff was fed up of this.

" yeah she is because you lot are wasting time ASKING US QUESTIONS WHEN YOU SHOULD BE LOOKING FOR THE SCUM THAT DID IT TO HER!" he looked back at Mia him shouting made her jump he went into the kitchen shutting the door.

" I assure you we are doing everything we can to find him"

"YEAH WELL BLODDY HURRY UP ABOUT IT THEN, I TELL YOU WHAT, YOU BETTER HOPE YOU FIND HIM BEFORE I DO BECAUSE I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL FUCKING KILL HIM!" jeff was fumming why we're they wasting time.

" we think under the circimstances, it would be best If Mia went into care" jeffs heart stopped. Care why?

"care what why, me and Dix are the only people she has talked to except the police and you think she would be better off with people she has never meet?" jeff was confused surely the best place for her to be was with them?

" It will give her a better chance to settle in with another family, we have already found a family willing to take her as a rape victim, located in scotland"

"scotland that's thousands of miles away, and shes a girl her name is mia she isnt just a rape victim" jeff froze How could he protect her from that longer distance apart. And why did they always call her a victim she had a name the least they could do was use it.

" What if me and Dixie want to look after her?"

" would you be willing to Foster her, this is the only way she could stay in your care?" jeff thought about it for a while

" yes anything, I can't lose her" jeff was unknowingly crying, he couldn't lose her the only way he knew she was ok, is when she was with him or Dix.
