Ivy's Point Of View

It'd been 5 long days. Since I'd been here. I was so tired, my body was sore. I made a huge mistake last night, Mike left me un-cuffed and the door was unlocked, he said he had to leave and he'd be back. He lied, it was a trick. To see if I was going to leave, of course I took the bait, and tried to leave. He caught me and flipped out, he took a baseball bat to my leg, he said I wouldn't be leaving him if I couldn't walk. He was right, I tried to put weight on it, when he helped me up, after the beating, but I couldn't.

I looked to Mike, who was laying in the bed next to me, he leaned forward and gave me a soft kiss on the lips. "How's the leg?" Mike questioned.

"It hurts." I bit my lip.

"You know I wish I didn't have to do that." Mike sighed, running a hand through my hair. "But you did it once again, you tried to leave me. Maybe I'll have to keep making sure you aren't able to walk." Mike shrugged.

"No, please Mike." I shook my head. "I'm sorry baby, you don't have to do it again. It hurts so bad, I don't think I can handle any more pain right now." I cried, shaking my head.

"Maybe I should give you a matching set of legs." Mike stated.

Oh god!

No, please just no!

"Mike, please." I shook my head, grabbing his shirt, clinging to it. "I know I fucked up, I know that. Please, don't do that. I know you love me Mike, I know you don't want to do that baby." I looked up at him, tears in my eyes, and lip quivering.

"Of course I don't want to do that babe, but what choice do I have." Mike shook his head. "But I can't let you ever try to leave me again."

Mike stood up off the bed, taking the covers from me. "Baby, what are you doing?" I looked on worried.

"Just trying to figure out what I'm going to do with your other leg." Mike said, sizing me up.

"No, please baby." I shook my head, trying to move but I found it hard as my wrist was cuffed to the bedpost.

"What am I supposed to do?, let you continue to try to leave me." Mike shook his head.

"Please, I promise Mike. I can't move already, let me prove myself to you, please just don't do anything yet, let me prove to you Mike, please." I cried.

Mike sighed and put the covers back over my body. "Fine, but only because I love you so fucking much." Mike said, walking over towards me, giving me a kiss on the lips.

"Thank you baby, thank you." I said using my free arm to wrap around him.

"I'm going to make some breakfast, you hungry?" Mike questioned.

"No, not really. I could go for some coffee." I said softly.

"Alright babe." Mike leaned forward and kissed me. "Here take this, it will make you feel better." He said, handing me an oxy.

Not another one!

"Okay." I nodded, putting it in my mouth. I watched him walk out the door, shutting it behind him. The second the door was shut, I spit the pill out, and slipped it under the mattress on my side, along with the other pills he'd tried to give me. I wasn't about to get hook on pills again.

Please come find me Bray!

I need you, so much!

Bray's Point Of View

I sat on my bed, looking down at my phone. I had a picture of my beautiful, sweet Ivy on my phone wallpaper. God she was so beautiful, so damn perfect. All I want to do is hold her in my arms, kiss her, and tell her everything is going to be okay.

And I'll do that, once I find her and rescues her from that crazy man, who's holding her. It kills me, that I can't see her. That I don't know what he's doing to her, that I can't protect her more then anything.

Ivy is my life, and lately it feels so wrong. My life isn't the same without Ivy in it. It's taking too damn long to find her. It's been a whole 5 days. Since I've had my arms around my Ivy. Since I've been able to kiss her, to tell her how much I love her.

I finally took the phone and put it in my pocket, as I stood up. I walked out to the living room, and made my way to the couch, I plopped down on the couch and let out a frustrated sigh. I looked over to Luke, who was sitting on the lounge chair.

"You okay?" Luke raised a brow.

"Do you need to keep asking the same question?, when you know the answer." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm sorry, I just don't like seeing you this upset." Luke sighed. "You aren't yourself."

"According to you, I wasn't myself before all this happened. Ivy made me a different person." I spat, Luke looked taken back. I'll admit I was a bit snappy now. But how am I not supposed to be?, I can't eat I can't sleep. I'm miserable without Ivy.

"Look I'm sorry, for the way I acted before, with Ivy." Luke sighed. "I just didn't think she was right for you, I care about you and I saw you changing, and it worried me. I saw Ivy becoming more important to you, then anything else."

"What was so wrong with Change?, it's not always a bad thing. Let me ask you something? Do you even care what might be happening to Ivy? Because it seems to me, you are only worried about your place in this family. Nothing else." I spat.

"It's not even like that. I don't think Ivy should of gone back with him, but she did so why don't you just move on?" Luke sighed, shaking his head.

"Move on?, are you fucking kidding me? I love Ivy she means the world to me." I snapped, what the hell does he think he's doing? Telling me to move on when the woman I love is in danger.

"She's gone just move on with your life, Mike obviously moved for a reason, he didn't want you to get your hooks into her again, if she believed you about Summer." Luke shook his head. "Mike didn't want to risk Ivy believing you about Summer, he's not a stupid man."

"How would Mike know about what was going to happen?, how would he know about Summer?, and how the hell do you know anything about Mike?" I raised a brow, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Nothing, don't worry about it." He sighed, shaking his head.

"I want to know NOW." I roared.

Luke took a deep breath and sighed. "Fine, I've been working with Mike." Luke admitted.

No this can't be!

There is no way he has been working with Mike!

To get Ivy away from me!

It just can't be!

"You are joking right?" I growled. "Tell me this is some big fucking joke." I yelled.

"It's not, I thought if I could get her out of your life. Things would go back to the way they were." Luke shook his head. "Summer was working with Mike, feeding him info on you and Ivy. Waiting until she could come between you two." Luke went on.

"So you helped that son of a bitch, steal away the love of my life?" I yelled, anger like I've never felt before taking over my entire body.

"I only did it for you, so we could get back the friendship we had." Luke explained.

That makes no sense!

"We have no friendship as far as I'm concerned." I growled. "No friend of mine, would hurt me in such a way."

"I never wanted to hurt you." Luke shook his head, his head hanging low, as he looked to the ground.

"But you did, if you wanted our friendship back. You know all you had to do was accept Ivy." I spat. "It was as simple as that." I growled.

"I can't accept her." Luke shook his head, turning up his nose at the mention of that.

She's done nothing to not earn your acceptance!

"Why can't you?, if her name was Ivan and not Ivy you know you wouldn't have a problem with it." I spat, narrowing my eye at him.

"That would of made it a hell of a lot worse." Luke spat, rolling his eyes.

"Just what does that mean?" I raised a brow, crossing my arms over my chest. Getting rather interested in what he was saying.

"It'd be worse because I'm gay, okay." Luke spat out.

"What?" I looked at him, with wide eyes.

"I'm gay, I don't want Ivy with you, or anyone else. Because I'm in love with you." Luke spat.

"Why did you keep this from me?" I shook my head, rather dumb founded right now.

"Because if you knew I was gay, you wouldn't of helped me, you wouldn't of befriended me." Luke admitted.

"It doesn't matter to me about your sexual orientation." I snapped. "That wouldn't of bothered me, what gets me is, causing someone I love pain, and that's what you've done. He's doing who knows what to her, and you helped him do it. You, Summer and Mike are the reason he's got her. " I spat.

"I'm sorry okay. I'm sorry." Luke sighed. "What can I do to earn your forgiveness."

"You can start by helping me get Ivy back." I growled.

"Fine, I'll tell you were he lives." Luke finally agreed. Then went on to give me the address.

"Erick, Braun." I yelled.

"What's wrong?" Braun raised a brow.

"Luke told me where Mike moved to, we need to get Ivy." I said heading to the door.

"Great, lets go." Erick nodded.

I spotted Luke heading to the door. "You aren't coming." I growled.

"Let me come along, I'll help." Luke sighed.

"What help can you be." I spat.

Braun and Erick looked between us as we bickered, clearly lost to what was going on between us.

"He trusts me, I can get him to let me in." Luke sighed.

"No one should trust you, that's obvious." I growled, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Give me a chance, I'll show you." Luke pleaded.

"What can it hurt?, come on I don't know what's going on but give him a chance. It can only help us right now." Braun interrupted.

"He's right Bray." Erick added.

"Fine, let's go." I growled, and walked out the door.
