“Dennis, you’re hurting me!” I screamed.

“Oh, I’m going to do so much more than that, you cunt,” he hissed. “I’m taking you home, and when we get there, I’m going to fuck you up so bad, Quasimodo wouldn’t come within an inch of you.”

I lashed out, scratching at his eyes. I could feel skin tear, and he yelled in pain and surprise, jumping back. I didn’t hesitate, jumping at the opportunity to get away, and raced towards my car. He caught up with me, though, grabbing me by the hair and pulling me back. I felt strands tear from my scalp, and I screamed in pain. He latched on hard, and when I turned around and tried to scratch at him again, he grabbed my wrist and twisted it.

My knees buckled, and before I knew what was happening, he grabbed me and slammed my head into the side of my car.

I fell to the ground in a heap, the world around me spinning out of control until everything went dark.

Chapter 16: Andy

I woke up to the sound of fists slamming against my door.

I sat up with a start, and instantly regretted it. My head spun, making me instantly nauseous. I leaned over the side of my bed and threw up, the whiskey coming back out the way it had gone down, along with my breakfast. My throat burned, and the stench made me throw up again. I wiped my mouth with my arm and looked around my room. I was naked, although how I had gotten to be like this was completely beyond me.

“We have visitors, baby.”

When I saw Hannah walk into the room, it all came rushing back to me like a tidal wave. I jumped out of bed, rushed towards her and grabbed her by the neck, pushing her against the wall. He raged inside me burned like wildfire, and I wanted to slam my fist into her face.

“You drugged me!” I spat. “You fucking cunt, you drugged me!”

The slamming continued, breaking my concentration as I realized that I had not been dreaming it. Hannah slapped my hand away and pushed me back, gently massaging her neck. “Go open the door, you asshole.”

I pointed an angry finger in her face. “Get dressed and get out before I kick you out and you could walk home naked!”

I grabbed my jeans from off the chair by the door, slipped them on, and left to answer the door. The knocking was now coupled with the bell.

“I’m coming, I’m coming, calm the fuck down!” I yelled at the idiot outside.

I swung the door open, and Bobby raced inside. “Is she here?” he demanded, looking frantic. Behind him, just outside the door, stood Jeremy and another officer I didn’t recognize.

“Is who here?” I asked.

“Andrea!” Bobby yelled. “Is she here?”

I frowned in confusion, suddenly just as worried. “What? You mean she’s not with you?”

“If she were with me, would I be looking for her, you jackass!”

“You were supposed to be watching her!” I yelled.

“Fuck you, Andy!” Bobby countered.

Jeremy stepped inside. “Okay, can we all calm down?” He looked at me. “Andrea didn’t stop by here?”

“Oh, yeah, sure she did,” I said, my tone laced with bitterness. “This is the face of a man who knows exactly where she is!”

“Actually, she was here earlier.”

We all turned to Hannah, standing half naked at the door to my bedroom, still massaging her neck. She was looking at me I anger, her eyes shooting daggers.

“What are you talking about?” I asked.

“She came here about an hour ago,” Hannah spat. “She was looking for you. I opened the door for her, and when she saw me, she just took off.”

That last bit was said with a small smile, and I quickly understood what Hannah was getting at. I immediately knew what Andrea must have thought seeing Hannah like that.

“Great, Andy, just fucking great!” Bobby yelled.
