14.

It has been two long days since I last saw Mike. My body was aching, my head pounding, everything hurt. It hurt to breathe, move, even open my eyes. Today was not as bad as yesterday when Ted threw me against the wall after kicking him in the nuts. After he did that, Cody then took me to the bed and that was the last thing I remembered. I woke up to my whole body aching and nothing on but a sheet. All I could think about was being with Mike in his strong, protecting arms, safe from all this torture. As I lay there with my eyes closed, I focused in on Mike's voice, telling me that everything was going to be fine and that he loved me. His blue eyes were so full of love and compassion, I started to tear up at not being able to see them again.

"Wake the hell up!" Someone shouted, bringing my out of my thoughts.
