Black and Blue
Chapter Five:- Is Turn Me Black and Blue
(If he loved me, the one thing he could never do, is turn me black and blue)
Danny stood there unsure of what to do. Sam sat there on his bed looking down at a picture. He could tell was crying by her sobs.
"Sam." Her head snapped up and he lifted a hand to cover his mouth. The sight of her right now was heartbreaking.
Her hair was dull and a mess. It had a few small twigs tangled in there somewhere too. Her face was dirty and somewhat pale. Her cheeks were tear stained and he could see just how much dirt was on her face by the look of it running down like make-up. Her eyes were dark, puffy, and red from crying. He noticed that she had a black eye and her left cheek was bruised. Her lip was swelling and her nose was red from her crying and sniffling. His eyes moved down to see it only got worse. Her long sleeved shirt was ripped in multiple places, the shoulder down the front, the sleeves, and some hanging down. Where it was ripped at the shoulder, he could see bite marks on her shoulder and above her breast. Her bra was showing and covered in dirt. There were bruises on her wrists and some on her arms and neck. Her hands had dried blood on them and minor cuts and scrapes.
As his eyes continued to travel down, it was then that he realized her jeans were missing. Her legs were covered in cuts and her knee was pretty beaten. There was dried blood that came from her inner thighs and had dripped down her legs. Her feet had glass shards in them and blood was still fresh. He looked back into her eyes and saw the tears fall as she looked back at him desperately.
It made him so angry and sad to see her like this but at the same time, he was happy to just see her alive and breathing. He couldn't believe what he was seeing at all in any way.
"I'm so sorry." He said walking over to her. "I'm so sorry. I should have been there." She tried to hold in her tears but failed. They came flooding out and she rested her head gently on Danny's shoulder even if it hurt to do so. Pain didn't really mean much to her anymore. He wasn't sure how to comfort her without touching her and causing her pain though. "I couldn't figure it out until it was too late. I can't believe how stupid I am."
"I'm the stupid one." Her voice was rough from screaming and crying. "I let him do this."
"No. It's not your fault. It's his fault. I can't believe this. It's not fair." Tears started slowly falling down his face. "It's going to be alright Sam. I won't let him hurt you anymore." He looked down to see the picture she'd been looking at was a picture of Sam, himself, and Tucker at 14.
"I'll be okay Danny. Don't worry." She looked up and him and smiled lightly.
"What happened, Sam?" He asked putting his arm gently around her.
Flashback
Sam hung up the phone and started pacing. She had convinced her parents to let her stay home from school hoping that would keep her safe. Now she was scared again. Adam had seen Danny come over last night.
There was no way she could tell anyone about what was going on without getting herself killed by Adam. He had her trapped in every way he wanted. Who would believe her anyway?
The end of school was drawing closer and she still didn't know what to do. Her parents went out shopping and she was left still pacing.
What made up her mind was the image she saw when she looked in the mirror. It wasn't her. It was someone you'd see on the news, a missing person. She ran from the mirror and started packing. All she packed were clothes and money.
After writing a note she thought no one would understand, she started out the door. But when she opened it, Adam's face greeted her with a chilling smile.
"Running are you?" He asked. Sam stood still, scared and shaking. "You bitch." He quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her outside. Sam was too scared to so anything including scream. He shut the front door and pushed her into his car. She tried to resist but he was stronger than she was especially when she was this fragile and he hit her head against the door.
"Adam please!" She begged once she was in the car.
"You deserve what you get." He reached over and slapped her so hard that she lost control and hit her head against the window. Her eyes closed and everything went dark.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the woods. She quickly figured out that he had driven them to the woods by Danny's house. She also saw that he had put her in the backseat.
"Hey Sammy." He smiled at her from the front seat. He climbed out of the car and moved to open the backseat door. Sam got her head back together and tried to open the opposite side but it was locked. Before she could unlock it, he climbed in and jumped on her. She started to scream but was cut off by his mouth crashing down onto hers. She was able to push him away but it didn't do much.
He pinned her arms down by her wrists above her head and started kissing and biting her neck. Sam twisted and turned trying to get free but he was just too strong. Adam tore her shirt down the front exposing her bra and continued to bite her.
Sam was in too much shock and horror to scream. Tears came streaming down the sides of her face and she felt her throat ache from the cries that couldn't escape.
Once Adam let go of her wrists to undo her jeans, she took that opportunity to hit him with all her might. It caused him to sit up allowing her to reach up, unlock and open the car door then wiggle out backwards. Adam reached and grabbed her sleeve which tore when she ran.
"Get back here!" He yelled after her. She kept running into the woods. Her jeans were falling odd but she couldn't stop, he had started chasing after her.
"Danny." She whispered involuntarily. She got out her cell phone and dialed Danny's number. She heard him pick up but right as he did, Adam caught up with her and took a hold of her bruised arm which caused her to scream. Adam took her phone with his other hand. "Danny!" She yelled hoping he'd hear her. Adam threw her phone to the ground. He tightened his grip on her arm which caused her to scream once again.
"Shut up you little tramp." He growled. They heard Danny yelling through the phone but Sam couldn't get to it. "There's no help for you."
He drew back his fist and punched her hard. She let out a cry and held her eye in pain. He pushed her to the ground and fell on top of her. Once again she tried to wiggle away and failed. He straddled her stomach and got her jeans fully off along with her boots. He tried to kiss her but Sam turned her head away. She tried screaming for help but he covered her mouth with his hand.
He started pulling her underwear down and it hit Sam that she had to try with her life to save herself. Within five seconds of his hands touching her near there, she realized how pitiful she had been being and she needed to stand up for herself now. She was able to push his hands away before he removed her underwear but that just angered him more.
He put his hand around her neck and started choking her as he unzipped his pants. Sam tried hitting his arms away but it did nothing. Once he got sick of her fighting he pulled out his pocket knife and put it on her leg.
"C'mon Sammy. Wiggle some more." He tried her and she stayed still only until she got a plan. When he came down to kiss her, loosening his grip on his throat, she brought her knee up and managed to get it underneath him by her chest in one quick motion. Then she quickly kneed him. He sat up and fell off of her holding his groin in pain.
Sam stumbled to her feet and ran in the direction of Danny's house as fast as she could. She tripped and fell into the dirt accidentally biting her lower lip in the process. Her knee ran into a rock and scraped it up pretty badly. She only took a minute to look at the damage. Her knee was hurting and there was blood dripping from where Adam's knife must have cut her leg.
She took off again ignoring whatever pain she was feeling and the dirt covering her body making her wounds ache even more. She ran hitting branches and sticks on the way, scratching her arms to make them red. She didn't think Adam was following her but she didn't slow down just in case.
She finally got out of the woods and found Danny's backyard. She wasn't going to go around front and risk someone seeing her.
She tried to open their back door but it was locked. She was about to fall down crying right there when she saw a rock and a window she could climb through. With her last bit of energy, she picked up the rock, threw it through the window, and climbed inside. She stepped on the glass as she got in but pain meant nothing anymore. It felt better than anything else did at that point.
She walked up the stairs lifelessly and went into Danny's room. She shut the door as to stop anyone from getting in and getting to her. She fell down on the comfort of his warm bed. The sheets on his bed and the soft mattress felt like heaven even though she'd sat there before. It was the first time all day she felt safe.
End Flashback
"Just wait until I get my hands on that bastard!" Danny said feeling his anger grow.
"Please don't Danny." Sam pleaded. "I don't want anything else bad to happen." She sighed leaning into him. "I just want it to be over."
"It's okay Sam." He held her close as he felt a few more tears fall. He was so happy to know she was okay and safe in his arms. He wanted to beat Adam but right now all he really wanted to do was to be with Sam. He loved her more than anything in the world and he just now really noticed that. "Did you clean yourself up in any way?" She shook her head. "I'm going to call the cops." He let go of her and reached for the phone.
"Danny, don't!" She cried.
"Sam, look at yourself. You've been in an abusive relationship, almost got raped, and need medical attention. Not to mention I can't wait to see Adam's ass in a jail cell." She looked down almost ashamed. "It'll be fine. I promise."
I know I keep saying the chapters will get longer and they seem to be getting shorter but I think that's enough for one chapter don't you think? Oh and believe me, we're no where near the end. You guys still get to see that fight you all want. By the way, I don't think this chapter was too graphic but if anyone believes I should raise the rating tell me and I will. Anyways, I'll update when I can. At leastafter this chapter you can rest a little knowing Sam's safe in Danny's arms.
