Chapter Nine

An hour later, Faith awoke to the doorbell. Her first thought was that it was Miss Johnson again, but when she opened the door Danny was standing in front of her.

"Go away!" Faith yelled.

"No. I knew you would be mad Faith, but it was only right and the only way I could help you. I love you and I am not going to sit around and watch you get hurt!" Danny said sternly.

"You don't know anything! You don't even know me!" Faith yelled.

Faith could see that she was hurting him, but she hurt so bad herself that she didn't care.

"I trusted you and you betrayed me!" She screamed.

"I know and I am sorry, but you need help Faith. You and your mom need help!" Danny said.

"Get out of my sight!" Faith said.

"Faith don't do this. You are only hurting yourself more." Danny said reaching out to touch her cheek.

"Don't freaking touch me Danny Walker! I hate you! I hate you!" She screamed.

"You don't mean that. You are just upset." Danny said touching her shoulder. This time Faith yanked away and slapped him across the face.

"I never want to see you again! GO AWAY!" She screamed and she slammed the door in his face.

After crying for what seemed like ages, Faith washed her face weakly and sat on her bed. She didn't want to be alive anymore. She just wanted to die, to end it all. At that moment she heard the door open downstairs and footsteps coming up.

"Hey mom, I'm in my room." Faith called out checking her mirror to make sure she didn't look like she'd been crying. When she turned back to face the door where she expected to see her mom she was surprised.

"Ronny? What are you doing here?" She asked, "Is mom downstairs?"

"No your mom is not downstairs little lady. It's just you and me. Don't be scared now okay." Ronny said grinning.

"What are you talking about?" Faith asked getting nervous.

"It's okay pretty baby. I won't hurt you okay. Just be a good girl and do what I saw." Ronny said.

He took a few steps towards her and the sickening smell of way too much alcohol filled her lungs.

"What are you doing? I need to find my mom!" Faith said suddenly panicking she tried to get to the door which he had locked, but he grabbed her wrists. "Let go! Get off me!" She screamed.

"Be a good girl I said or you will be in trouble!" Ronny said as he forced her onto the bed.

She couldn't move he had her pinned down by the arms and she squirmed, but she couldn't break free. "Please, please let me go." She said the tears streaming down her face again.

"Oh honey don't you cry." He said kissing her neck, "I said I wouldn't hurt yah!" He said laughing evilly.

Faith tried to scream, but no sound came out. The tears just kept pouring as he touched and breathed his alcoholic breath on her. She felt disgusted, but she was trapped and all she wanted was for Danny to come and save her, but he didn't come. She just cried as this beast of a man raped her in her own bed, in her own house.
