Hey Catgirl again this is Chapter 2 of Once is Enough! Thanks for all of the wonderful reviews!!!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last time: He stuck his hand out to and quickly shook it. He was thankful he got someone like her instead of a fat/old/sluty one.

Still standing there with the doorknob in hand "Ummm….w-would you like to uhh…come in?" He said wondering if she really was going to come in or just stand there. Then he realized how was she going to get in when he was standing there like an idiot.

"Sure, by the way my names Karen" she said as she waited for Chris to step aside to let her in, but he remained still, still looking at her what did she have something on her face. Then she got this feeling this heart pounding butterfly stomach feeling. She'd had it once before with Josh but it was gone now

Both never took there eyes off each other, both were in love at that moment.

Inside Karen's Mind…

'He is so handsome' She thought, quickly shaking that off her mind 'he's probably an insensitive jerk' she tried to convince herself 'besides he probably has a girlfriend in another country or something.'

Inside Chris's Mind…

'She's like an angel with really nice legs and a nice rack, but… looks can be deceiving' He thought convincing himself that this emotion was a weakness he's never felt it before but he knew what it was. 'She'll probably lounge around all day on the coach and probably never has a shower' He said to himself 'or probably has a boyfriend in another country'

Back to Normal…

There was complete silence; both still staring at each other it felt like an eternity but it was only like 5 minutes. Until Karen broke that silence…

"May I com…." She was about to finish when he interrupted her.

"Of course" He said quickly, stepping aside to let her in, Finally it was about time she been there fir what an hour. (5 minutes)

She quickly walked in past him as he shut the door. He turned and looked at her, and his gaze instantly fell upon her umm…. Backside 'sweet' he thought.

The apartment, as soon as you walked in you saw one big room with reddish peach wallpaper and to the right a couch, two chairs. To your left was a counter, fridge, stove, etc. and if you walked straight you'd see a table. Past the table are two rooms a bathroom and a bedroom. It was nice she loved it.

She stood in one spot and turned around slowly in circles looking at everything. (It's like Joey's apartment on friends but altered a tad.)

"………Please.. Sit down" He said slyly, eyeing her again. She felt his eyes on her but didn't know where.

She did as he instructed. Walked over and stepped down two stairs then sat on the brownish redish leather chair across from the blue chesterfield, where he conveniently sat (to look up her skirt) 'dammit she crossed her legs' He thought mischievously. Both were sitting on the edge so their knees were like 5 inches from each other.

He looked her in the eye and said, "So tell me a little about yourself ya know your past?" Still looking her in the eye.

"…………………Uhhmm….you see…err…umm…well there's…this….guhh…" She was stumped how could she tell him could she trust him? She just met him after all.

He raised an eyebrow " He said waiting for her to start. Why is she so hesitant, well whatever it was he was going to find out…eventually.

She looked down at her feet finding them suddenly interesting "Is this really necessary?" She questioned.

"Yes" He said staring at her intently.

"I…grew up in….uhh…Washington…uhh and I had 3 brothers yes that'll work, and uhh after that we moved here and that's great!" She finished but she said that whole story rather quickly. He raised his eyebrow again she was undoubtably the worst liar he'd ever seen first of all she was shaking, her lips were trembling, she refused to make eye contact and she didn't even finish. Like what happened after that did she have a job, He'd have to pry it from her.

She finally looked up at him after she finished that little tale of hers. She saw the uncertainty in his eyes.

"You're a terrible liar you know?" He said smirking and leaning back on the sofa. 'What could she possibly have to hide?' He thought, both still looking at each other.

She looked at him and she trusted him even though she had only just met him. She was debating on whether or not to tell him, She frowned, then she sighed this was it the only person she would ever tell besides Becky who already knew.

"………….Okay….. But you've got to promise to tell no one and if I ever catch wind of you telling someone I will got off you dick and mount it on my car as a hood ornament make a nice one too a bit small though."

He stared at her for a minute a bit taken back at her language then nodded slowly.' I guess there is something to hide…probably had a job at Mac Donald's or something' He thought

"I grew up here in Calgary…with my older sister and mother and father…we lived in a small house…we lived in the country.. Well more of the outskirts of town.." She looked up at him, he could see the pain in her eyes and regretted forcing this out of her "the bad part…." she stated.

Flashback

"Mommy look what I made!!" shouted a 4 year old girl to her mother who was walking away from the bedroom like she had just left and then noticed the little girl with a crown made of several flowers entwined in her hands running down the hallway of their house her bare feet slapping against the hardwood floor then she smiled an evil wicked smile who for anybody to look at would have thought it as a happy genuine smile.

"SHHH!!!!!!!!!" Shushed the little girls mother who kneeled down "You'll wake your father!" She whispered loudly like she wanted him to awaken (which she secretly did)

Then all of a sudden they heard loud stomping like noises. The door leading from the bedroom to the hallway swung open and a huge angry man appeared (picture Undertakers size, Batistas muscles, and Triple Hs face, for those of you who don't know who these characters are picture a huge man that had the arms the size of watermelons I think that's a fair comparison)

He walked right past the mother who just stayed kneeled and secretly smirked thinking it went unnoticed, but the little girl saw it and said nothing. While she got her guts pounded out of her, blood everywhere her father doing such things as kicking, punching, twisting (as in breaking ones arm), hair pulling, crushing (as in bones), raping (I'm not going to describe it to you I'm sure you can come up with some twisted scenario yourself) It was nothing new of course but usually when she made a crown of flowers which was a lot, he'd never wake up until around dusk, then she'd get it. But not at 2 o' clock in the afternoon though. The little girl screamed and cried and begged, her father just laughed while she dangled by her hair she glanced at her mother who had a smile on her face then immediately replaced I with s look of concern then when Karen looked away her mother smiled again.

This was nothing compared to what else occurred in her life.

Whenever she went anywhere like with her older sister Brenda who was 6 years older then her they'd have to sneak around town, plenty of men would like a few young girls as sex slaves. Becky was her neighbour they lived on the outskirts of town, they were 15 minutes away from each other. She was even caught a couple times, but it did help her senses and strength this sneaking and fighting was indeed making her stronger. This happened until she was 12 then her sister turned 18 and she lived with her sister from then on until she got a job (As a secretary) and moved away from her sister.

She finished.

Flashback Over

She looked up at Chris, his mouth was a gap eyes wide (Of course she was more descriptive to him then I was to you).

He was stunned to say the least he was stunned/disgusted (At who could do that to there own child) and anger, and eventually he pitied her.
