Pain

The girls screamed. Wildly the guy bashed the windows in and smashed the weak car. Lizzie sat stock still. "No….no…not again….no…Miranda…No!" She grabbed the pepper spray, her only protection, and got out of the car where the mad man stood, ramming the hood of the car.

"Lizzie no!" Miranda cried. But it was to late. Lizzie stood by her closed door, the guy at the good.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked angrily, but quietly. He laughed. She stared blankly at him, clutching the bottle in her hand.

"I've missed you Lizzie. I missed your bod." He winked at her, she shuddered.

"Why? You don't know do you? About the baby…." She trailed off and his eyes widened.

"Wh…what baby?" He asked, dropping the bat next to the nearly mutilated car.

"Our baby….from when you….you…" She choked. "Raped me.." She said quietly. He smiled.

"That was fun," He snidely replied.

"Maybe for you," She snapped. "Why are you back? What do you want?" She asked. He nodded towards Miranda. "No." She said flatly. "You can have me again but don't touch her. Let her go..go in your truck…home…we'll stay here….just let her go." Lizzie began to sweat as she remember how much he hurt her. How much she'd gone through. Her baby's death.

"How did the baby die?" He asked leaning against the trashed hood. He seemed to be switching from jerk to caring person and back again.

"Well….um….I was swimming away from the diving board at the public pool. This 12 year old kid didn't see me and jumped. He…he…..he landed on my stomach. I was 2 months along." She finished sadly, deep loss in her voice. She looked up and saw his shoulders shaking, his head in his hands. This was a guy she knew…..a guy who had hurt her…a guy that had given her or better yet forced upon her a baby and she'd lost it. He wanted to do that to Miranda. She wasn't going to let him. "Leave," She said. "Get out of her," He stood up and walked to her. She clutched the pepper spray tightly. Miranda sat fearfully in the car. Terrified and confused at what she had heard. The guy's hand reached out and began playing with one of Lizzie's ringlets.

"Oh my Lizzie," He started closer to her, "I've missed you so," His hands closed on her waist. She tried to bring up her hand and use the pepper spray but he grabbed her hand and twisted it. The bottle fell from her hand. She choked. No….the protector…no….I have to save Miranda. She grabbed his face and kissed him. His lips felt as good as they had before he had hurt her. She reached in his pockets searching for the keys, they weren't there. She made a signal with her hands that showed they were in the truck. Jumping out of the car Miranda got into the truck and started it. Starting she honked at Lizzie.

"What the?" The guy pulled away and held Lizzie by her forearms and shook her. "What did you do?" Lizzie shut her eyes and shook her head. He backhanded her across the face, she fell to the ground. He walked to the truck and tried to open the door but it was locked. He went in search of the bat. Lizzie ran to the truck and jumped into the bed of it….there was a mattress there. She shuddered….there were bloodstains…..from her…..from last time…. She was his only victim…..she knew it….there would be more blood if she wasn't.

Without a second thought she laid down to the side of the mattress as the truck lurched forward. She heard and felt a heard thud. Lizzie and Miranda jumped out of the truck and saw the guy on the ground. Oh no……Lizzie thought…Miranda's going to find out who it is….Lord help me. Miranda walked over and knelt down next to him. Pushing the dark curls out of his face Miranda look straight into the face of…….
