I Can Save You

We reach home a little after 6:30 ish. I walk in the door with mike hot on my heels. We haven't slept all day.

"Babe, I'm really tired." He said wrapping an arm around my waist as i contemplate eating or not. I decide to go with both, I grab a small granola bar and drag mike up the stairs.

I set him on the bed and i get undressed for a shower, after i changed out of my clothes at the studio into the ones i had brought, i was still really stinky,

I hop in the shower do a quick scrub then I'm out. I drape a towel across my naked body and dry off, slinging on a sports bra and underwear.

I look in the mirror. 'Fat' 'ugly' worthless' the words rang in my head. I don't even know why they just pop up. I start to tear up and I didn't even hear mikey talking to me.

He starts to shake me but I can't tear my eyes away form this vile body.

FLASHBACK

"Malaki! Get your ass in here!!" My father screams at me from the top of the stairs. "Coming sir!" I say, careful not to leave the ending out.

I run up the stairs as fast as i can to reach my destination. "Yes sir?" I ask knocking on the door.

"Enter!" He bellows and i open the door to get hit with the smell of weed and Herion. "yes father?" I ask folding my hands in front on my lap.

i look around the room and see that he has his 'friends' over again. "I owe them. You know the drill." He speaks.

I nod and walk around the room because the last time i disobeyed I got beat and raped until i couldn't move.

One of his guys pulls me on his lap. "She knowes how to do everything. Just ask and she follow." My 'father' said and left the room.

"Oh sweetie I'm going to have fun with you." He smirks a evil smirk.






END



"get... Kalia...." I tell mike and he runs in and literally drags her in here. "Okay breathe. Listen to me when I talk okay?" I nod because breathing right now is rather difficult.

"Remember when we first met? I stole your wave and we got into a fight??" She asks and i nod. "We both walked away with a couple of bruises and when saw each other at the same bar and said and i quote "Oh hell no not you again! Remember?" I nod finding breathing harder and harder when the guys come in.

"P-pe-people." I choke out and she looks at mike.

"Guys leave." He said calm, and quiet. "Ill explain later." They nod and walk out. Mike comes over and tries to wrap his hands around me but I just scream.

"No no I'm sorry!! I'm sorry don't hurt me please!!" I scream curling up in a ball. "Get vic and leave micheal, his voice will calm her down. Ill explain later just go!!" She said loudly and he did as he was told.
P

a second later vic comes running in. "The sky under the sea." I say and he nods.

I still remember the night you tried to kiss me through the window.
I tried to settle for the taste of touching glass over the sound of
answering machines, because I love the way your voice
it says it's gonna get back to me someday.
As I brace my knees you hold me down with your eyes.

Someday I'll drive, close both my eyes.
We'll swim in circles in the blue lights,
it's gonna be the best day of my life.

Oh my God
You'll never be as beautiful without me.
Beauty needs an animal to breathe,
and baby you'll be alright as long as I'm not.
So do that dance in the dark,
sharpen your teeth and bite as hard as you want.

Someday I'll drive, close both my eyes.
We'll swim in circles in the blue lights.
And I just want to fade away into the sky under the sea.
A million kisses underwater as we walk into the ocean.
And this is gonna be the best day of my life,
a celebration of an ending.

And do you really trust your tongue or did you bury the taste?
And is this fantasy real, or is it all home-made?
And did you call me last night just 'cause you couldn't get laid?
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce the selfish machine.

Do you think you're the only one?
Do you think you're the only one?
Do you think you're the only one afraid of this machine?

Someday I'll drive, close both my eyes.
I'll be your breath if you can be mine.
And I just want to fade away into the sky under the sea.
A million kisses underwater as we walk into the ocean waves.
Do you see me at all under the tall waves?
Do you see me at all?

He sings calmly.

I finally am able to breathe again, "mike?" I call out to him through our connection. He walks in and i hold my arms out for him to pick me up. " you guys can go, I'm gonna sleep." I say to therm and they nod.

" wow those guys saw me in my bra and underwear, embarrassing." I say in between quiet sobs that rack through my chest.

"shhhh baby im here." He said cradling me too his chest when he scoots back. He lays down with my head on his chest along with my body. My legs are draped in between his.

"Mike I'm so sorry. I totally freaked you out and now you probably wanna leave." I said getting off of this beautiful man.

'Never in my life will i leave you voluntarily baby. I swear I will love you throw hell and back.' He explains to me in my head."ill love you too. He'll I do love you now mikey." I reply verbally slipping into my great escape.
