THE ANIMAL:- BY NAME OR NATURE?

By Kirsty Gooch.

He felt his blood boil, "SHUT UP!" He screamed and he brought his hand down across her face.

He woke up. "Did I dream that?" He asked. He glanced across at 'his girl'. He took his hand to her shoulder, she flinched, he gently shook her. She rolled over, to reveal a bruise laying thick on the right side of her face. He froze. "Did I do this?" He asked her. She sat up, her head fell forwards, her hair fell over her face, as tears rolled down her face. He knew the answer to his question. He ran his fingers through his hair. "No, No!" He kept saying in disbelief, shaking his head. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I never meant to, I'll never do it again." He said, his hand rubbing her back, he kissed the back of her head.

As she turned her head and he saw the bruising, a feeling of disgust engaged him. He jumped out of bed and raced to the bathroom, where he began to throw up. 'His girl' watched as he retched and heaved.

He looked at the figure in the mirror, he turned and returned to be. He pulled her closer to him. Kissed her, closed her eyes and returned to a slumber, that would reveal all the answers.

"Dave, you played your part too!" Kirsty pleaded to her boyfriend, Dave Bautista "You stupid Bitch! You've wrecked everything!" Dave screamed. "But I love you!" Kirsty said, reaching out for Dave's hand as tears cascaded over her face. "You tricked me more like! You planned this, get what you want!" He sneered, his face a mere inch away from hers. "No, Dave, I didn't. I know how you feel about children, I would never do such a nasty thing as to trap you. Dave, please believe me." Kirsty said. "Oh, for God's sake!" Dave muttered under his breath. All he could hear was her crying and pleading. He turned to her. "Dave? Please?" She said as the tears subsided. He felt his blood boil, "SHUT UP!" He screamed and brought his hand across her face.

A stunned hushed settled on the world. No tears shed or heard. Dave watched on as a broken, scared Kirsty froze with her hand on her face. He looked straight through her, and walked towards their bed. Kirsty sat on the arm of the chair. After a few hours, she walked over to the bed and slide in between the sheets, next to The Animal.

As Kirsty felt Dave's arms wrap around her, her eyes opened. She looked at The Animal and asked herself, "Animal by Name or Nature?" Her eyes shut, and she drifted away.
