Grant was back in the basement tied to the chair again. He saw Jason standing in front of him.
"Jason? What's going on?" he asked.
"He can't hear you. No one can hear you," a voice inside his head told him.
"Let me go please. What do you want from me?"
"I just want to have a little fun."
"Jason! Please help me!"
"You don't give up do you?"
Grant felt a deep agonizing pain inside of him. He fell to his knees crying out in pain.
"Jason please help me!"
"He can't help you no one can." The voice laughed.
Grant continued to scream as the pain got worse and darkness consumed him.
Jason woke up to hear Grant screaming, he looked over and saw Grant thrashing around and Steve trying to calm him. Jason got up from the couch and was immediately by Grant's side. He took him by his shoulders.
"Grant its okay. Its okay its just a dream. Come on now wake up." He coaxed.
Grant continued to trash around.
"No please help me Jason! Please help me!" he yelled.
"Grant I'm right here open your eyes and you'll see,"
"No! Let me go! Your hurting me!"
"Grant! Wake up now!"
Grant's eyes opened and he shot up in bed.
"Easy Grant easy. Its okay. Its just a dream," Steve comforted putting a hand on his shoulder.
Jason could feel how Grant was shaking as he gained his surroundings and tried to control his breathing. He finally sat back against the head board, still breathing a little hard. Jason and Steve watched him as he ran his hands through his hair, each keeping a hand on his shoulders. Rick, Kevin, and Tango ran in.
"You okay G?" Jason finally asked.
"I—I don't know. I could feel him inside me Jason. He was hurting me. I had no control over my body or anything, I was trying to yell out to you, but you couldn't hear me."
"I know but your okay now. You're here and your safe, okay," Jason comforted.
Grant just continued to breathe deep and rest his head in his hands as Jason sat with him.
"Is he alright?" Tango asked.
"Yeah he just had a bad dream," Steve told him, "come on lets give him a chance to catch his breath."
Steve, Tango, Rick and Kevin all left. Jason situated himself so he was sitting right beside Grant and put his arm around Grant's shoulders.
"Its okay Grant, its over and your safe now. I'm not going to let it hurt you again." Jason promised.
"I remember everything."
Grant looked up and looked Jason in the eye.
"I remember what it felt like to have that thing inside of me. I remember everything I said, what I did, everything. I didn't want to do those things, but I couldn't help it. And whenever I would yell at him and try to break free he would hurt me," Grant explained now holding back the tears, "God he would hurt me so bad Jay. I would yell out for you and he would make it worse. I thought I was going to die Jay. All I could think about was leaving Reanna and the kids and you. I didn't want to leave all you guys. Please Jason don't let that happen to me again. Please"
Grant was now letting the tears flow and Jason felt his heart break when Grant begged him to never let it happen again. All he could do was pull Grant into a tight hug and rub small circles on his back.
"I won't let it happen again Grant. I promise."
Grant just let Jason hold him as he let everything go. He was grateful for a friend like Jason, someone who would let him cry and not let the others see him like this. He just sat there and listened to the gentle beat of Jason's heart and let it calm him. He fell asleep like that, knowing that as long as he was with Jason, nothing would hurt him.
