Chapter 35: Breaking Point

"You're sick Mike...you need help...Mikey, please, you need help" Kelly pleaded with him. Mike laughed almost viciously as he folded his belt in half. Kelly waited for the worst. Consequently, he proceeded to beat her with the belt creating blood red scars on her back. She yelled out in pain, this being music to Mike's ears. The shockwave of pain erupted across her back. Burning, vehement, agonising pain, so sudden...so terrifying. Kelly's mind was screaming for it to end. Mike's vile laugh reverberated through the room as Kelly whimpered in pain.

Kelly rolled over in her sleep wanting her nightmare to stop, unfortunatley that nightmare was reality. She kept tossing and turning, calling out softly. It could barley wake Randy up. He was a heavy sleeper. "Mikey...no..." Kelly muttered.

A second shock of intense, searing pain ripped through her stomach. Kelly stared at the ceiling muttering and begging that it would stop. She screamed so hard her lungs were aching. She was being flayed alive, slowly, painfully and she couldn't do anything to stop it. Mike had gone mad not just angry mad as in psycho mad. Mike struck again, the buckle clawed deep into Kelly's arm which was handuffed to the bed post. Scream after scream, surge after surge of agony coursed through her body with each lash. Kelly was by now crying her eyes out, her skin was burning, "make it stop! Just kill me! It hurts so fucking much!" her mind screamed things she couldn't had promised he was changed man but now he was doing this to her because he found Randy in the hotel room, speaking with her.

"Mike...I'm sorry" Kelly whispered softly in her sleep as she started crying reliving the moment. She squirmed around under the covers as her nightmare continued.

Mike took delight in Kelly's wailing, relishing her agony and suffering. "How do you like that?" he bellowed down at her. Each lash carved several long, bleeding gashes into her body and as Kelly's knees couldn't hold her up anymore, she collapsed shakily onto the floor. "P-Please..." she whimpered, her eyes still screwed shut in agony. "M-M-Mikey...don't...please...please..." she managed to say between sobs. "Please...n-no m-more" she whimpered. "Just let me go...please" Kelly gasped between sobs as Mike threw his belt to the side...

Kelly sat bolt upright as she finally snapped out of her nightmare, panting almost violently and her brow was covered in a thin layer of sweat. She swung her legs over the side of the bed, shooting a glance at Randy before burying her face in her hands and consequently cried silently to herself. A couple of minutes passed before she wiped her face and stormed through the bed room door, into the living room, tears streaming down her face. She couldn't take anymore of this, she just wanted Mike out of her life. With him around she was miserable. Why couldn't he just give it up? He was officially stalking her everywhere. Kelly made her way to the sink as Randy rolled over trying to get comfortable. She let the water run for bit before splashing her face, in order to try calm herself down.

She couldn't stop the horrid images from popping inside her head. She wished that they would just leave her alone but they were too powerful to be forgotten. She felt the warm tears well up in her eyes again as she stared at herself in the mirror. Her hair was a mess because she was tossing and turning so much, she had bags under her eyes because she wasn't sleeping well recently. She looked down at the running water for a brief moment before turning it off. She stared into the mirror one more time, before she punched it, hating the fragile reflection of herself. "You let this happen to yourself!" she yelled at her shattered reflection. "You are pathetic!" She continued to tremble before she ran her hands through her messy blonde hair, leaning and then sliding down the wall. "Why did I let this happen to myself?" Kelly cried as she started to shake uncontrollably, ignoring the small amount of blood oozing from her knuckles. Randy opened his eyes as he heard a crashing noise. Sitting upright he realised the empty space next to him.

"Barbs?" he yawned. "Where are you?" his tone turned into a panicked one. There was no answer. He frowned a few seconds later, calling her name again, after he got no answer. He heard the shower running and he frowned once again to himself as he made his way to the bath room a little wearily. As he opened the door, his heart sank at the sight and his eyes widened. Kelly was siiting on the floor of the shower letting the water fall down on her, not caring that she was letting her clothes get soaked through. Hugging her knees to her chest tightly as she rocked back and forth, her eyes were glued to the tiled floor in front of her as the tears continuously streamed down her face. His attention then shifted to Kelly's knuckles that seemed to have cuts on them now, due to the shattered mirror he was guessing.

Randy stared at the scene in front of him for a moment before grabbing the towel from the rack beside him and made his way over to her, turning off the shower as he then leaned down beside her. She glanced up at him her usual striking blue eyes, dull, grey and full of fear. He gently went to grab her hand but she pulled away. He pressed the towl to her bleeding hand, causing her to wince slightly but then she relaxed. Holding down the towel with his right hand, he placed a firm hand on her shoulder to refrain her from rocking.

He'd never seen Kelly like this before, with her eyes filled with so much hurt and fear in them. Even the other night she wasn't this bad. Now this was frightening and somewhat disturbing. She needed help, Mike had driven her to her breaking point. She didn't deserve this. She was so innocent, fun and usually bubbly but all those traits were taken away by Mike now.

"Randy..." she barley whispered. "I-I dreamt of him..." she cried finally looking up at him. "I dreamt of that...that night..." she trembled. His eyes met her fear ridden dull grey orbs and he felt the tears bloom in his eyes slightly. He closed his eyes for a moment before sitting beside Kelly and wrapping his arms around her tightly and holding her close to him. Randy was speechless, he did know what to say. Did he really know what she'd been through? What could he do now? All he could think of doing was comforting her. He sighed silently to himself and wrapped his arms around Kelly slightly tighter as she curled up against him and sobbed into his semi-wet shirt. He scrunched his face up in anger.

"I wont let him hurt you" Randy said before he fell silent once again. Kelly was his dream girl and the one he wanted to share his future with, and he would do all he could possible do for her, during this tough time.
