Assignment: Joey Potter

Chapter 35

"Peters! How long do you think it will take for the wires to be reconnected?" Pacey asked nervously. They had been waiting for nearly 10 minutes and still hadn't gotten reconnected.

"I don't know. we're trying to figure out what the problem is." Peters was a little worried himself. If anything happened to Joey, he wouldn't hear the end of it from Pacey.

"What the hell does that mean!! My girlfriend could be dead by now. And we aren't going in there why!" Pacey yelled at his boss. He had this strange, unshakable feeling that Joey was in major trouble.

"We have to be calm." Peters tried to tell him.

"I'm not going to be calm. NOW IF YOU DON'T GO IN THERE NOW, I'M GOING IN THERE MYSELF!!!" Pacey was fed up. He wanted to know if Joey was safe. She meant the world to him.

"Pacey...."

"I mean it. Do something or I will."

"I can't help you here Pacey. I sorry." Peters spoke his word in a solemn tone as if he was betraying a friend.

"Okay. I'm going in there."

"Is there any possible way I can stop you? If you go in there, you're risking your life." He said knowing he couldn't stop him.

"I know but Jo is my life. And I have this eerie feeling that something's wrong. I know I have to." Pacey and Mike shared a brief hug before Pacey jogged briskly to the large house.

Mike shook his head sadly.

Joey was upstairs with Breath as scared as a person in hell. To her terror Breath had already raped her. Now Breath had to tied up to a huge four-poster bed. He was resharpening his knives, just to make an atmosphere of suspense.

Joey was horrified. Where was the police? Where was Pacey? She needed him. She was going to die in the hands of this mad man. What happened to her life. She used to be a respectable artist with a cute little shop on the corner of a nice café. Now all she was, was a woman full of fear and anger at the man in front of her who had just brutally abused her.

"Josephine, are you ready for the most painful time of your life?" Breath let out a smile of wickedness. Joey cringed at this.

He moved over to the bed and sat down. Breath moved the shiny silver knife to her leg. He touched it just enough to draw a pinpoint of blood. He moved closer to her. Joey tried to move farther away but with her tied up and all, it wasn't that easy.

Now she had to save her life.

"David?" She asked in a sexy little voice.

"Yes." His knife moved closer to her skin.

"Take my shirt off." She whispered into his ear." The knife drew away as he removed her blouse.

"Good boy." He gulped at the view. He had wanted her from their first day of college.

"Now, Take of my jeans." And he did ever so carefully. The knife was so gone from the bed by now.

"You are so beautiful...." He crooned. Joey tried not to show how much she disliked this situation.

"You know I am."

"Umm." Joey thought his tactic of killing was done for the moment.

"Now.. Your shirt is really taking away the beauty of your broad chest. Will you take it off?" She asked in a fake hoarse tone. He took off his shirt. He was a skinny thin man Joey thought. Pacey was nothing like this.

"Now. I want to touch you....Can I?" She whispered in his ear with a soft giggle.

"Of course."

"My hands..." Joey gestured to her hands all tied up. She noticed a gun in the corner of the room. She couldn't get it.

"Sure." He untied them in a flash. 'was he stupid' Joey asked herself silently.

"Good" She traced a heart on his chest with her finger.

"That feels so good." She was finally under control.

A loud bang came from the door downstairs. She cursed herself.

David immediately took Joey up and put the knife to Joey's throat. And then the knight in shining armor appeared. Right when he wasn't needed. Pacey and Joey were in trouble now. Big trouble.
