Chapter 11
Chapter 11.
Some hours later Calleigh was back in Louisiana and went into the howling wolf the bar that used to be her hangout spot along with her brothers and their friends.
Calleigh walked over to the bar and said: A beer.
"Calleigh is that you?" said Tony the barman.
"Yeah it's me, is Dave and the rest by any chance here or are they working?" she asked.
"On the table in the corner" said Tony pointed and gave her the beer before she walked over.
"I'm telling you Nick you should totally ask Mary out" said Dave.
"Yeah she really likes you" said Adam.
"And then you tow can get married and have lots of kids" said Calleigh.
"Oh shush all of you I ain't doing that" said Nick.
"Well you have to go out with her cause I already asked if she wanted to go out with you and she said yes, she's so excited to your date on Friday" said Dave.
"You didn't" said Nick shocked.
"Had to or you would never have dated her" said Dave and they all laughed.
"That was so not necessary" said Nick.
"Sure it was, you're always to slow to ask them out" said Calleigh with a giggle.
"How nice of you to say, hey you're back" said Adam.
"Sure am" said Calleigh and smiled.
"So what brings you back and what happened to your neck and wrist" asked Dave shocked when he saw the blue marks.
"Dad didn't do you anything cause if so I'll beat him" said Nick angrily.
"No, no this ain't dads work" said Calleigh and sat down next to Dave.
"You're dating the bastard that did it, tell us who he is so we can go and beat him up" said Adam.
"I won't it will only make it worse" said Calleigh with a sigh as she rested her head against Dave's chest.
"Babygirl you can't let him treat you that way it just ain't right" said Dave.
"I know and I'm so confused about what to do" said Calleigh.
"How so, I say dump him" said Nick.
"Yeah and then let us take a punch at him" said Adam.
"No cause I'm afraid if I do he'll do something real bad, cause he's dangerous" said Calleigh.
"Then why did you start to date him?" asked Nick.
"Cause he was real sweet and stuff at first, well still is when he's not mad" said Calleigh honest.
"And you got noone at all over there to watch over you" sad Dave.
"No" said Calleigh.
"So you just suddenly started to wear Hugo Boss then" he said.
"Oh it's Horatio's he gave me a hug earlier" said Calleigh.
"That would explain the marks around your neck and now you're running away" said Dave.
"Only for a day or so" she said with a yawn.
"Can't you just outsmart him then" said Adam.
"How?" asked Calleigh.
"I dunno" said Adam honest.
"We'll think of something" said Nick.
"You wanto sleep or stay here" said Dave.
"Sleep here" she said.
"And how's dear old dad?" asked Nick.
"He's ok" said Calleigh and closed her eyes.
When Calleigh woke up she was in her old bedroom and Dave stood by the window looking out.
"What ya looking at big Dave?" she asked in a girlish tone.
"You know the garden, the starts and the dark night" he said and smiled at her.
"I missed you so much" she said.
"I missed you to Babygirl" he said.
"I could really need you around in Miami sometimes, there it's just me and no apple threes to hide in and no big Dave to watch over and protect me" she said, her voice was shaking.
Dave sat down next to her and held her closely and said: I though Horatio was protecting you.
"He can't cause if he tries it will get worse, that's why I got marks on my neck case he smelled Horatio. And as for Horatio I dunno, cause he's my boss and it would be wrong" she said as her tears were starting to fall.
"So which one of these guys do you really love?" Dave asked.
"I honestly dunno, it's all so messed up" she said honest.
"So what will you do?" he asked.
"I'm not sure yet, for now stay here until tomorrow" she said.
"How bad does it hurt?" he asked.
"So bad that I can hardly stand it" she said.
"You still tired?" he asked.
"Pretty much, but Dave before you leave can you read to me like you used to" she begged.
"Of course" he said, picked a book out of her shelf and started to read while she slowly fell a sleep.
Calleigh woke up the next morning to the smell of burned toast and bacon like she used to when she was a kid, so she threw of an old T-shirt and run downstairs.
"Hey Babygirl ya hungry?" Dave asked and smiled warmly at her.
"You know I am big Dave, where are the rest" she said.
"Not up yet sleepy head as they are, would ya wake them" he said.
"Yeah sure thing" she said and run upstairs again to wake Nick and Adam.
"Nicky, Adam get up breakfast" she yelled.
"Umf" they grunted, but got up and followed her downstairs.
"How come ya'll live her I though you moved out ages ago" she said.
"We just staying over night like you, we do that sometimes" said Dave and gave her a plate.
"Thanks" she said and started to eat hungrily.
"You're welcome so do Horatio and the rest know that you are gone?" he asked.
"No, but I'm going back later today, so I'll face it all then" she said.
"You sure you can do that alone" said Dave.
"Think so" she said and smiled at him as she continued to eat.
Horatio was walking back and forth in his office worried bout Calleigh when John stormed in and yelled: Where is she.
"Where is who?" Horatio replied.
"Where the hell is Calleigh?" he yelled.
"I have no idea, I haven't seen her since she went home yesterday" said Horatio.
"You want me to believe that" said John angrily.
"It's true you silly gorilla" said Horatio.
"What did you just say you old fool" said John.
"Well I'm not the one that caused her to run away in the first place" said Horatio.
"You slept with her you had no right to" John snarled.
"I did no such thing" Horatio snarled back.
"Then why the hell did my girl smell like you" John yelled at him.
"Because I gave her a hug" Horatio yelled back.
"Just tell me where the hell she is" John yelled.
"If I knew I sure as hell wouldn't tell you" Horatio yelled back.
"Fine" John yelled and stormed out while Horatio yelled: And stay the hell out from my lab.
After John had been over at Calleigh's dad without no results he went over to her place to wait.
As he walked back and forth in anger the door opened and Calleigh came in singing happily until she saw him and said: What are you doing here?
"Where the hell were you?" he yelled at her.
"That is nunna your business" she said calmly.
"You're my girl and we had a date so course it is" he yelled.
"The hell it ain't" she yelled back at him.
"You could at least told me the date was of" he said and grabbed her hand hardly.
"No and will you the hell let me go" she snarled.
"No" he said.
Calleigh slapped him to get him to let her go, but that only resulted in him twisting her arm so she went down on her knees screaming of pain, before he let go only to give her a hard hit in the jaw so she screamed before she begged: John please stop you're hurting me, please.
But he kept going in anger ignoring her prays for mercy until he heard Horatio say: John that's enough, take him away.
Before John could really react two other coop handcuffed him and took him away.
Calleigh was on the ground shaking covering her face with her hands in fear.
"Calleigh, it's ok" said Horatio in a gentle tone.
"How did you get here?" she asked confused.
"One of your neighbors called it in" he said.
Calleigh were still shivering like crazy so Horatio put his arm around her and said: It will be ok.
"No it won't I know it" she said.
"He's gone" he said.
"He'll be back" she said with a sigh.
"You want me to stay?" he asked.
"No I'm fine, but thanks" she said.
"You're welcome" he said and left her again wondering if that was the right thing to do.
Calleigh sighed when she parked the car in her parking space the next day and saw John's not far from her since she knew it meant he was up in her apartment and she really wanted to be alone after what he did last night, blowing him of earlier that day and after driving her once again drunk father home.
She walked up to her apartment opened and yelled: John would ya get the hell out, I'm not in the mood to argue with ya right now.
Before she really knew what was going on he had grabbed her wrist and pushed against the wall while he said: I though you knew by now that it wasn't a good idea to blew me of like you have done the last couple of days since you are mine.
"John let me tell you one thing, you don't scare me and you certainly don't own me" she said and for once she managed to break free from his grip as she walked into the living room.
"What was that now?" he said surprised.
Calleigh turned on the stereo and sang: You don't own me, I'm not just one of your many toys, you don't own me, don't say I can't go with other boys.
"Turn that of and I do own you" he said as he tried to grab her as she danced of joy.
"Don't tell me what to do, don't tell me what to say, an' please, when I go out with you, don't put me on display" Calleigh sang and pushed him so he went back a little.
"Calleigh stop that at once" he demanded angrily.
Neither of them had noticed that Horatio, Tim and Eric had suddenly appeared and stood watching them and Eric said: Should we interrupt H.
"Not yet I find it rather amusing at the moment" said Horatio.
"But aren't you afraid he'll hurt her again, I mean the neighbours didn't call yesterday for no reason and he don't look to happy right now" said Tim worried.
"Let her tell him of her own way and if he go to far again we will, for now let us just watch" said Horatio and smiled.
"You don't own me, don't try to change me in anyway, you don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'll never stay" Calleigh sang as she danced and giggled happily.
"Calleigh stop that at once" John said again and grabbed her arm hardly.
Eric was about to run in, but Horatio held him back as Calleigh sang: don't tell you what to say, I don't tell you what to do, so just let me be myself, that's all I ask of you.
John twisted her arm hardly, but for once Calleigh didn't care that he hurt her and sang: I'm young and I love to be young, I'm free and I love to be free, to live my life the way I want, to say and do whatever I please.
Calleigh was now on her knees as John was holding her there, the song ended and he said: Are you done?
"I am" she said.
"Man that gotto hurt like hell, why ain't she backing down" said Eric shocked.
"Just trust her Eric" said Horatio calmly.
"You really don't wanto be with me" said John.
"I really don't I don't like the way you treat me and that you try to own me" she said.
"I get the point so I'll leave you for now" he said.
"Don't you dare come back cause I'm feed up with you and your ways" she said.
"Oh I will when you least of all expect it and that is a promise" he said, let go of her and left in a hurry not even giving the others a look.
First then Calleigh started to cry and Horatio run over, knelt down beside her and said: You ok?
"It hurts, other than that I'm fine" she cried.
"Let me look" he said.
"Let's go" said Eric to Tim as he understood she only needed Horatio at the moment.
Tim nodded and they left as Calleigh showed Horatio her arm and asked: When did you get here?
"Around I'm not one of you many toys" he said and got some ice form the freezer to ease the pain.
"And it didn't occur to you to jump in" she said surprised.
"It looked like you had it under control and he did leave" said Horatio.
"I wasn't sure though, and I'm glad you came" she said and gave him a soft kiss.
"You want me to stay?" he asked.
"Yes please" she said and let him hold her closely.
"I would never own you" he said.
"I know" she said as she let her tears fall against his chest as he rested his head against her shoulder.
