Leah sat on the stairs, this time, instead of curling up on the seat, she folded her hands in her lap. She turned her head to look at Eric, seeing an unreadable look on his face as he read a text message. Putting her hand gently on his shoulder, rubbing it slightly, she asked, "What the matter, Eric?" She looked at him with conccern littering her face.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:25 am

Eric flipped the phone closed, and turned it off, stuffing it deeply into his pocket, before chewing his lower lip. A confused, concern expression was on his face, but he shook his head and dropped it when Leah asked him if everything was ok. "I'm fine Leah... I just want to get home." He moved his hand so it was ontop of hers, and patted her hand slightly.

(Ok, I'm off the phone so I can concentrate. And I'm pming you.I'll let you know when I send it. You still there? xD)

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:29 am

[ 'kay good ^^ and yeah, I'm here. xD sorry, just seriously multitasking at the moment ]

Leah frowned and reached over, kissing his cheek gently. "Eric, I know something's wrong. I'm not completely ignorant." She gave him a weak smile, that quickly faded. "You can tell me what's wrong, you know." Leah returned back to her seat but didn't prod him further. He didn't really have to tell her, but she was curious now, and it was very obvious something was bugging. She had no doubt that he wanted to get home, so it wasn't a total lie, but she knew he was still hiding something.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:36 am

(UnderstoodXD)

Eric pursed his lips, turning his head and watching as they pulled out of the parking lot, the scenery starting to move past, and he heard Leah ask him what was bothering him, letting him know that she was there if he needed to talk.
He silently handed her the phone, but didn't look at her face.

You're not going anywhere Eric! You know as well as me, that you cant get out, cant get away. I'm coming for you, and I'm coming for that little girlfriend of yours also. Maybe after you see what I can do to her, you'll think next time before you do something so stupid.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:40 am

Leah read the text message, frowning. When she reached the part where she was mentioned. Her heart stopped momentarily. Barely able to do anything now, she handed him back the phone quietly. "It's going to be all right, Eric." She said, looking up at him. She didn't believe it at all, though. Leah shook her head and tried to push the thought out of her head. "It's gonna be all right. Was that your stepfather?"

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:45 am

Eric didn't bother to answer right away, his face blank and tired. He shook his head and took his phone back, shoving it into his pocket, and pursing his lips. "I'm sorry Leah, but I dont think that's going to happen." He took her hand and gently squeezed it with his, giving her a saddened smile. Soon enough, they pulled up to the ice cream parlor, and Eric unbuckled himself, Mrs.Quinn keeping the car running. "I'm going to finish my errands. I'll be back later."

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:56 am

Leah frowned. Her mind was racing with a whole bunch of thougths. She was scared now. Pushing the thoughts to the back of her mind, Leah got out of the car and smiled at Eric. "Come on, let's go inside and forget about this for a while." Leah took his hand and opened the door to the icecream shop after unlocking it. Leah couldn't help but feel a daunting horror of what was to happen. She felt worried, now, that they were alone in the parlor.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 11:59 am

(Should Mike be waiting for them? Or for Leah? That would be epic, but.. I'm not sure...)

Eric smiled gratefully as Leah took his hand, and he closed the car door behind him. They made their way up to the front doors, and slipped inside. Mrs.Quinn pulled away out onto the road, and Eric and Leah were left alone in the silent building. To tell you the truth, Eric wasn't feeling quite secure about the place, not anymore, not after the text message Mike had sent him. He knew that what his step father said, he meant, and now he wrapped his arm around Leah protectivley.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:05 pm

[ I think Mike should be upstairs in the bedroom and Leah could go upstairs to get her bear, and Mike could be there waiting ]

Leah smiled and kissed his cheek. She was worried, though. Her heart was pounding now, and she was scared out of her mind. When they went inside, Leah stretched. "Hey, Eric, you said you brought my bear? It's upstairs, right? I think I'm going to go get it. I'll be right back down, and I'll meet you in the lounge, all right?" Leah smiled and kissed him on the lips once, before turning to go up the stairs.

[ if you don't want my idea, i can rearrange my post ]

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:11 pm

(No, its good. Do you want Mike to be harsh with her? What's the outcome? Ooh he should kidnap one of them xD Probably Leah... but whatevs, I'm kinda braindead right now, and I need to wake myself up.)

Eric nodded. "Yeah... I took the bear. It's upstairs, on my bed I think." He smiled as Leah planted a soft kiss on his lips, then turned to go retreive the stuffed animal. Eric made his way into the lounge, before sinking down on one of the couches, and letting his head drop into his hands.

Mike was leaning against the wall, arms crossed over his chest. He grinned as he heard Eric and Leah enter the parlor, and shook his head, wondering why Eric would actually put her in danger like this. Well, he was where he was, and he waited in the room, knowing either of them would come up the stairs sometime or another. Whoever was first, was the one he was going to choose.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:15 pm

[ Well, knowing Mike, he should probably be harsh with her. And yeah, he can kidnap her if you want. o3o this is getting interesting xD intenseeeee! ]

Leah smiled and walked up the stairs, her bruises and cuts not making the walk very easy on her. She made sure to keep one hand on the railing. Leah, when she reached the top, was surprised to find the door closed. She didn't remember keeping it closed, or Eric closing it, but she shrugged. Maybe she just hadn't remembered. Maybe a draft had pushed it closed. Now that she thought about it, it was pretty cold upstairs. Shrugging, Leah pushed open the door and had made if halfway towards the bed where the plush bear was seated when she saw somebody--a male--propped against the wall, ands he froze in fear, staring in horror. Was that Eric's father?

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:25 pm

(Ok. I'm not perfectly sure what he's gonna try, but.... Eric is waiting for her downstairs, and will probably hear some noise and wonder why it is taking so long.. Maybe he'll like, get knocked out or something, or maybe Mike should lock the door so he cant get in, idk. I was hoping it would get interesting. I dont want either of our topics to die, so we'll have to keep the ideas coming. XD)

Mike faintly heard voices, an exchanging of words, before he also heard the slight creak of the stairs. Someone was coming up, and that someone would be rather unlucky. He inwardly wished it was the girl, as he knew Eric would put up a fight. Plus, Eric had been numbed down to pain more than she would have been, thus it would be easier in the long run to do what he wished with her. He watched with sharp, dark eyes as the handle on the door turned, then the door itself was pushed open. A figure walked into the room, not seeing him at first, heading towards the bed. Then, she turned, her eyes widening in fear as she spotted him, now straighening. He pushed himself up, before giving her a harsh smile, his eyes glittering slightly.
"What have we here? You know Leah, I would have thought that Eric, even you would have been more careful after that message, but no, go ahead and pretend it didn't happen." He strode forward and grabbed her by the shoulders, striking her up against the wall, pressing his body against hers, lips inches from her ear.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:33 pm

Leah sucked in a sharp breath and took a step backward. "B-but the door, it was l-locked! How did you get in h-here?" Leah winced when she hit the wall, whimpering when his body pressed against hers. It was uncomfortable and she didn't like it, and she squirmed, trying to get out of his grasp. Leah craned her neck from him. "P-please get off of m-me!" Leah whimpered again, her heart beating uncontrollably in her chest. She felt like she was going to break down in tears. She wanted to scream for Eric, but his face so close to hers she could barely speak a straight sentence.

[ well, actually, either one would work. o3o ]

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 12:59 pm

(Do you want Mike to be very harsh with her? She is your character after all.)

Mike let out a breath, the air hissing through his tightly clenched teeth. Narrowing his dark eyes, he grabbed her by the throat as the stuttered and whimpered, holding her a few feet off of the ground, pushing her onto the wall. "You shut up, or I'll kill you." He growled low in his throat, not holding her hard enough so that she couldn't breathe, but so that her breathing was constricted.

(sss)

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:04 pm

[ sure ^^ ]

Leah sucked in a sharp breath of air, her fingers digging into the skin of his fingers. She kicked her legs uselessly, stricking out to kick his hip. Leah's heart was beating so fast she could've sworn it was going to beat right out of her chest. She sucked in a deep breath, knowing she could probably fit in one more scream. "ERIC!" Leah screamed, trying to pry his hand off of her throat. Leah sucked in a shaky breath, trying her hardest to wriggle herself free. "Let.." Leah was trying to tell him to let go again, but she couldn't finish her sentence.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:09 pm

Dropping Leah to the ground, Mike strode over to the door and turned the lock, locking Eric out of the room just as he heard pounding footsteps coming up the stairs. "Leah!? What's wrong!?" The knob wiggled as Eric tried to open it, then a loud crash as he kicked at the door. "Leah! Open the door!" Eric, from the other side of the door was desperatly banging on it with his fists, twisting the knob and kicking at the wood, hoping to make it spliter, but it wasn't working.
Mike had strode back over to Leah, before grabbing her by her arm and lifting her off of the ground, delivering a harsh blow to her midsection with his fist.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:14 pm

Leah let herself fall to the floor, quickly scrambling to her feet and rushing over to the door. "Eric!" she cried, but before she could reach the door, she saw Mike coming back over to her, and she quickly stumbled backwards, trying to avoid him. When he grabbed her arm, she cried out, "Let go of me!" Leah opened her mouth to say something else when Mike punched her in the stomach. The force of his punch winded her almost completely, and she wasn't able to get enough air in her lungs to call out to Eric again.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:18 pm

Obviously pleased with what he was commiting, Mike let Leah fall to the floor, her face pale as she tried to gasp for air. He heard Eric ferousiously pounding at the wood, the doorknob rattling, before he picked up the teenage girl, shoving her harshly back against the wall. His eyes were glittering and hard, narrowed, his muscles tense and ready to hit her again.

(Did you want him to kidnap her? Or maybe Eric gets in? So Leah stays with her parents, and Eric goes into a foster home? Perhaps they should run away. XD)

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:24 pm

[ uhm, why doesn't Mike kidnap Leah? ]

Leah coughed, grasping her stomach. Leah would've tried to scoot away from him, but she was still trying to get air back into her lungs. Before she could even get her lungs filled with air, he had picked her up again and slammed her into the wall. Her neck whiplashed, her head hitting the wall. She flinched when she saw his hand go back, ready to hit her again. "Please don't!" Leah said, tears spilling over her cheeks.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:30 pm

(I suck at playing violent men. And ok, but how will she get out, when and if she does? I'm kind of at a loss of what to post right now.Should he kidnap both of them?)

Mike heard Leah whimper, plead with him to spare her the next hit, and with a snarl, a hiss of breath, he withdrew his fist, but kept Leah tightly pinned up against the wall. He heard Eric's insistant beating on the door, and knowing there was nothing his stepson could do, made him rather pleased on the inside.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:34 pm

[ xD ah, you're doin' fine. Anyways, I think Mike should kidnap Leah.... and then Eric could find out where they are and Leah and Eric could escape and then run away o3o ]

Leah let out a breath she'd been holding. She lashed out with her legs again, even though her breath had still not come back to her completely. Tears were still streaming down her face, hearing Eric knocking feverently on the door. "Eric.." Leah wanted to scream it, but she didn't have enough breath in her lungs to do so, so instead, it came out as a faint whisper, barely audible even to herself.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:41 pm

Stepping down the hall a few steps, Eric urgently dialed 911, the first time he had ever done so. The line was picked up within seconds, and Eric quickly stated what was happening, wildly telling her the address...
Mike swung open the door, grabbing Leah in tow, before seeing Eric look up from the hall. The phone fell out of his hands and clattered to the ground, before he lunged at Mike, who was ready for him, blocking his wild attack easilly.
Sirens could be heard in the distance, and he quickly socked Eric hard in the kidney, making the teen fall over, gasping, his eyes wide, trying to regain his breath, trying to move.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 1:48 pm

"Let go!" Leah screamed. She struggled against Mike's iron-grip. When she saw Eric, she renewed her struggling with more effort. When Mike hit Eric, Leah cried out, "Don't hurt him!" She grabbed onto the corner of the icecream parlor's bar, holding on with all she had. She tore her eyes away from Eric, unable to look at him in pain, tears streaming down her face. "Let go of me!" Leah shouted.

by Spritz Thu Nov 10, 2011 2:06 pm

Mike heaved Leah away from the counter, prying her clamped fingers off and clasping an arm around her midsection, tight. Eric struggled to his feet, his mouth slightly agape, before he came after Mike again. "Let, her go!" He was heaving as he tried to breath, his head spinning, seeing stars slightly. As he neared the pair, Mike easily turned, his hard fist swinging out and socking Eric hard in the jaw again.

by Guest Thu Nov 10, 2011 2:09 pm

Leah yelped, trying to squirm out of his grasp. When she saw Eric getting up, she felt hope became renewed in her. After Mike punched Eric again, she screamed again, "Leave him alone, you bastard!" Leah wasn't crying anymore. Her fear and anger had taken over her completely. She reached out for Eric, but it was in vain. "Eric!" she cried.
