Killing Them Softly- COMPLETED

I took Emily upstairs to her bedroom, she sat on the bed holding her head. I slowly closed the door behind us, locking it so Kay wouldn't be able to disturb us. "Are you okay? Here let me see."

She removed her hat, blood had started to dry in her hair and against her head. "Let me get a washcloth, help clean this up." I unlocked the door and left for the bathroom. In the bathroom I grabbed bandaids, antibiotic ointment and wet a washcloth.

Just as I was leaving, Kay stopped me pushing me back into the bathroom. She closed the door, "what are you going to do with her?"

I pushed her against the wall, holding her in place with my arm against her neck. Not putting too much pressure, "if you ever fucking hurt her again I'll sew your mouth and your eyes shut. You'll end up like mom and dad, I promise you that.

I gave one last push against her neck, made sure I had the supplies and left. When I got back to Emily, she was still sitting where I left her. "Sorry I couldn't find everything right away."

"That's okay, I think it's stopped bleeding now." I sat next to her on the bed, taking her face in my hand. "Tell me if I hurt you." First I took the washcloth and wiped off the dried blood.

She groaned just slightly, then I put a little dab of ointment on the cut and lastly put the bandaid on it. With her face still in my hand I turned her head so our eyes met. "Thank you Gerard, you've been really kind to me."

Emily smiled so sweetly before pulling away and looking down at her feet. She bit her bottom lip nervously, I placed on hand in her hair and the other on her cheek. I turned her back towards me and kissed her.

Her lips were soft, I entangled my fingers in her hair. She moaned slightly, I wanted more and I wanted it now. I pressed my tongue against her lips, asking for entrance. Emily allowed me to continued, our tongues met, she didn't put up a fight.

My hand started to travel up her leg, it made its way to her belt. While our lips stayed locked, I began to unbuckle it. Emily pushed away, standing up and creating a distance between us. "Was I doing something wrong? I wasn't hurting you, was I?"

"No, I'm sorry it's just..." She was struggling to find the right words. "I just met you this morning, and I'm sorry." She covered her eyes, afraid to look at me. I stood up and wrapped my arms around her. She smelled amazing, at that moment I was ready to take every inch of her but she wasn't ready.

"It's okay Emily." I made her look at me, "you're my girl." Her eyes changed into confusion and slight fear.

"What?" She left my arms, "Gerard I can't thank you enough for saving my life but at some point I have to go home. My friends are still missing and...."

In a rage I pushed her against the wall, with one hand I held her hands above her head and my other hand gripped her cheeks. "You want to leave? Have I not been kind to you?"

She started to cry and I realized what I was doing. I removed my tight grip from her wrists and cheek, "I'm sorry." I turned and left her standing there, she was terrified of me now.

I walked swiftly to Room G, my bedroom and looked at myself in the mirror on my dresser. My reflection showed someone I hated, I try to be loving and caring but this monster always appeared.

A soft knock came from my door, shit I forgot to shut it. I turned my head and saw Emily, she still looked scared and I felt guilty. "Can I help you?"

"I would like to go into the nearest town, see if my friends made it there."

"Of course, I'll take you there. We can leave now." I followed her downstairs, Kay looked at me confused. "I'm taking her into town, see if there's any info about her friends."

We got into my truck, the ride there was awkward and silent. I parked in front of the police station, "want me to come in with you?" Emily shook her head no, I really messed this up. As she walked into the station I saw a flower shop, maybe it would help.

"Can I get one of everything please? I'm not sure her favorite flower, so I figure I can't mess up with this." The nice lady smiled and made a beautiful bouquet for me. I paid and waited outside for Emily to return.

She came out of the station with some papers. "How did it go?"

"No word from James or Tabi, I explained everything I remember to them. So they said to just get a room at the motel and wait."

"That's ridiculous, you can stay with us for free. I mean if you want to stay with Kay and I." She looked down at her feet again, she was still unsure. Prefect time to bring out the flowers.

"About earlier today, I'm sorry, it's just that I really like you. I think you're beautiful, like these flowers." I walked up to her and brought the flowers from behind my back.

"Gerard, these are beautiful. You didn't have to buy these for me, I don't deserve them."

I brushed hair out of her eyes, "you deserve more actually. Sorry I wasn't sure your favorite so I bought one of each." She smiled and hugged me tight, again her scent filled me. I felt myself get hard and backed away so she wouldn't be able to tell.

"Let's get you somewhere warm." As we were driving back, my erection finally went down. I wasn't sure how longer I could wait. Everything about her was perfect, and I wanted her badly. I pulled into the driveway, got out and opened her door.

She hopped out holding her flowers close. "Gerard, is it okay if I rest for a little bit? My heads starting to hurt again."

"Of course, here I'll put these in a vase for you. You go upstairs and ill get you for dinner." I grabbed the bouquet and kissed her cheek. Emily smiled, pulled me closer and kissed me.

"Thank you." I stood there in the cold, watching her head inside. In my view I saw Kay staring out the window, she looked angry. I wasn't sure if it was me or Emily she was mad at the most. I didn't care, all I cared about was that Emily was still mine.
