Chapter Two: "Baby you know I didn't mean it." Said Jonathan as he helped her up off the floor. "It's just that you make me so mad, always wanting to hang around those punk pop stars. Especially that Howie guy." He said "Jonathan! Howie and I are just friends nothing has ever happened between us in the last four years. Your the only one I love." Said Melanie as she rubbed her back. Just then the phone rang "Hello!" She said "Hey Mel I'm glad I've finally caught you at home." Said Howie "Um, Howie, now is not a good time. Can I call you back later?" She asked keeping her voice low so that Jonathan couldn't hear. "How about I come over? I really need to talk to you." He asked with worry in his voice "Yeah I guess, just give me an hour okay." She asked "Okay, and Mel are you all right?" He asked "Yeah I'm fine. See you in an hour. bye." she said "Bye Mel. I love you." He said "Ditto." Said Mel and hung up the phone Howie hung up the phone and started cursing under his breathe, then he got up and stalked out of Kevin' house and sped away in his car. He headed towards his best friends house, where he just knew that something was going on with Melanie, because in the four years that he had known her she had never said ditto to his I love you's. "Who was that on the phone Melanie?" Asked Jonathan "it was just a friend from school. She needs some of the notes that I took in history class. She's coming over in an hour to get them." She lied to him, because she knew if she told him the truth that he would never leave before Howie got there. "Oh well I guess that's okay. I've got to get to work. I'll pick you up tomorrow at 7 AM sharp. Don't make me have to come in after you this time either, you know how mad that makes me." He said "Remember Melanie I love you." He said and left Melanie walked into the living room and looked at the clock. She had 45 mins before Howie was to be there, so she decided to take a shower. While she was in the shower Howie showed up. He rang the door bell, but didn't get an answer, so he let himself in with the key she had given him when she had moved into the apartment. "Mel are you here?" He yelled He didn't get an answer. He walked into the living room and heard water running in the bathroom, so he figured she was in the shower. He walked over to the CD player that he'd bought her for her 21st birthday the month before, and put on a Bryan Adams CD one of their favorites. He sat down on the couch to wait for her. Melanie cringed as the water as the water hit the middle of her back as she rinsed the soap off her body. She got out of the shower and dried off. She put on her bra and panties, and started examining her back in the mirror. She was so engrossed with how bad that her back had gotten bruised during the fight with Jonathan that she didn't notice Howie walk up behind her. "Where in the hell did all of those bruises come from?" He asked opening the bathroom door the rest of the way. "Howie!" She shrieked as she grabbed for her robe. "Don't you know it's rude to sneak up on someone like that?" She said and pushed by him to go to her bedroom "Answer me Mel where in the hell did those bruises come from?" He snapped following her into the bedroom "Oh Howie don't be such a worry wart. You know how much a clutz I am. I fell of the step stool at work." She said avoiding his eyes so he wouldn't know that she was lying to him. "Mel." He said taking her chin into his hand and making her look him in the eyes. "I know you're lying to me. Please. Why won't you tell me the truth. We have never lied to each other and we have never kept secrets from each other. Especially about something as important as this." He said with so much worry in those big brown eyes. "He did this to you, didn't he?" He asked "We got into a fight. I made him mad. It was my fault. I should never have started talking about maybe going on tour with you next week. He hates that we are so close. He feels like I love you more than him and that makes him feel insecure. He asked me if I love you the same way I love him, but before I could start to tell him that I only love you as a friend he got really angry and started hitting me. I hit the coffee table when he knocked me backwards." She said as tears started coming down her face. "He never means it when he hits me, it's just his way of showing me that he loves me." She said still crying "What do you mean he doesn't really mean it when he hits you? You mean this isn't the first time he's done this to you?" He yelled. "I'm going to kill that son of a bitch." He said slamming his fist into the bedroom door. "Howie please don't do anything. I love him and he loves me." She said "You what? He doesn't love you Melanie. If he did then your back wouldn't look like this." He said pulling her robe off and making her look into the mirror. "Is this what you call love? Half your back is bruised. That's not love that's abuse." He said looking at Melanie's reflection in the mirror. He picked up her robe and handed it to her. She put it back on and then sat down on the end of the bed with her head in her hands crying. Howie not knowing what to say just sat down beside her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and put her head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around her as she continued to cry, soaking his shirt as she did. After about five minutes she finally stopped crying and pulled away from him. "Feel better?" He asked handing her a Kleenex "I'm sorry Howie. It's just that I love Jonathan, but at the same time I hate him. Remember when you and I first met four years ago? I was just a scarred sixteen year old running from an abusive father. Do you remember what I told you that night he killed my mother and went to prison?" She asked "Yeah I do. You swore that you would never end up in a relationship like that." He said remembering that day as if it were yesterday. "So tell me Howie, how did I end up in that kind of relationship then?" She asked "I don't know Mel, but I do know that you can get out of it before it's to late." He answered "You know you're right. When he comes to pick me up in the morning I'm telling him it's over." She said "Howie, thanks for not going off the deep end. That's what I love about you, ya know?" She said and smiled "I know. Now how about we go and get something to eat?" He asked "Great. I'm starved. Go wait in the living room and I'll be right out." She said "okay. Mel?" He asked walking towards the door "Yeah, what is it Howard?" She asked in a mock serious voice to match his "I truly did want to kill Jonathan tonight." He said "I know you did D, but I'm glad you didn't because I would have missed you while you were in prison. You're my only friend you know." She said "Now scram I need to get dressed." Loving throwing one of her pillows at him. |

Chapter 3: I Need You Tonight She came walking out of the bedroom five minutes later in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. "Ready Howie?" She asked "Yeah I'm ready. Where do you want to go?" He asked "How about that new pizza place down the street from your night club?" She said "Sounds good to me." He said walking to the front door Two hours later they stood talking at her front door. "Thanks for the great time D. I forgot how much fun it was to be around you." She said "No problem. I'm just glad to see you back to your old self." He said leaning his head against the wall "I guess I'd better go in now. I have to be ready by seven in the morning when Jonathan comes to pick me up." She said "Remember you promised me that you are going to break up with him. Do you think he will give you any trouble, because if you think he will then the guys and I will come over to back you up." He said "I don't think you have to worry." She said unlocking the door "Yeah, but just in case he tries something promise me that you will call okay." He said "Yeah I promise mother." She said jokingly and entered the apartment. She turned to face Howie. "Thanks for being such a good friend." She said "No problem. You make it easy for me." He said with a smile They just stood there in the doorway starring at each other, when Howie leaned down and brushed his lips up against hers. She didn't pull away this time and soon they were passionately kissing. They kissed for nearly two minutes before Melanie finally pulled away. "I'm sorry Howie I can't do this." She said "Please I just want to be left alone to think." She said as tears surfaced to the top of her eyes and slid down her cheeks. "Did I do something wrong?" He asked confused, he thought that she had enjoyed the kiss between them, as had he. "No it's just I need some time and it's late. I have to get some sleep. I'll call if I need you. Goodnight." She said and shut the door. Howie stood there hurt and confused, but let her have what she wanted because he loved her. He walked to his car and went home. Melanie went straight to bed and prayed that Jonathan wouldn't actually go through with the threat that he had made to her the first time she had tried to leave him. He had told Melanie that if she ever tried to leave him again that he would kill her. But sleep soon took over and she slept fitfully. The next morning Howie paced back and forth in his living room. He had called Kevin, Brian, AJ and Nick the night before and told them what was going on. He asked them to be at his house at 6:30 AM in case she needed their help. "Will you calm down D. your going to wear a hole in the floor." Said AJ "I can't help it, it's 8 AM and Mel still hasn't called. I'm just worried he's done something to her." He said still pacing "We could always go over and check on her." Said Kevin "No I asked her to call if she thought she was in trouble. If we just go over unannounced she would be mad at me. She would think I didn't trust her." He said "How about I make us all something to eat then while we are waiting." Asked Brian "Sounds good to me." Said Nick "Man don't you think about anything besides food?" Asked Brian jokingly "Yeah girls." Answered Nick playfully punching Brian in the arm "Very funny Nick. Come on lets see what old worry wart has in the fridge." Said Brian standing up and walking to the kitchen with Nick on his heels. |

Chapter 4: I Need You Tonight 7 AM at Melanie's: Honk Honk. Melanie looked out the window to see Jonathan's truck sitting in the parking lot. "Well here goes nothing." She said and went out to talk to him Jonathan looked up. "I'm glad to see that you are on time for a change." He said "I'm not quite ready Jonathan. We need to talk before we go." She said not getting into the truck "What's there to talk about here that we can't talk about on the way to my mother's house." He asked "we need to talk about what happened yesterday." She said looking him dead in the eye. "I thought we had put this behind us?" He asked with irritation in his voice "I thought we had too until a friend pointed out to me that they thought you might have a problem." She said not backing down from her promise she had made to Howie "The only problem I have is an ungrateful girlfriend who is going to make us late to my mom's house." He said getting out of the truck. "Your mom will understand if you are a little bit late." She said back up from him "What do you mean she'll understand if I'm late?" Your going too, now get into the truck or I'll put you in it myself." He said taking another step towards her. "No I'm not going with you. Jonathan I'm breaking up with you. I'm tired of having to hide all of the these bruises from my friends." She said taking another step back "What? You're breaking up with me over my dead body. Now get into the truck so we can get to my mom's house before dark." He said putting his hand on her elbow and forcing her to the truck "Stop Jonathan, I don't think you heard me the first time clear enough. I said I'm not going, because I'm leaving you. Now let go of my arm and leave." She said between clenched teeth "And I don't think you heard me right either Melanie. You're not leaving me. Now get in this damn truck so we can go." He said giving her a push into the truck "No I'm not getting in this truck. So take your hands off me." She said struggling to get out of his grip "You're getting into this truck if I have to tie you in it. Now quit fighting me and just do what I say." He said forcing her to sit down in the truck Melanie kicked him in the knee cap. He let go of her in pain. She took off running for her apartment with Jonathan right behind her. "You get your butt back here you bitch. I'm not letting you go without a fight." He yelled Melanie ran for her apartment, but dropped the keys while fumbling for the door key. Jonathan grabbled them off the ground and trapped her between him and the door, and unlocked it. He pushed her inside and shut the door behind them. "You shouldn't have kicked me Melanie. Now I'm going to have to teach you a lesson." He said as his fist came down on her face. "No please Jonathan I didn't mean to do it." She cried out as she felt the blow to her eye. Jonathan forced her into the bedroom where he proceeded to knock her around for more than a half hour. When he was no longer angry he left her there unconscious and sped away from the scene. 8:30 AM at Howie's house where the guys were just finishing up the omelets that Brian made for them "Man I can't take this any longer. I'm calling her." Said Howie as he reached for the phone. The phone rang about ten times before he finally placed it back on the hook. "There's no answer. I hope she didn't back down and decide to go with him today." He said worried "That doesn't sound like Melanie though D. She's never told you that she was going to do something and then backed out at the last moment." said Kevin "Yeah you're right, but you didn't see what this guy does to her when he gets mad." Said Howie "Okay guys let's take my truck and go over there. Let's just say I have this gut feeling that she's not answering her phone, because she isn't able to." Said AJ standing up from the kitchen table and heading for the door. |

Ten minutes later all five guys were standing at Melanies apartment door. Howie started to knock, when the door opened on its own. They all looked at each other and went in. "Mel are you here?" Howie hollered, but didn't get an answer "Stay here I'm going into the bedroom to see if she's in there." Said Howie to the guys Howie made his way to the bedroom. He opened the door slowly, what he saw made him scream out "oh my God Melanie." All at once the guys were right behind him. Kevin pushed past him and walked over to the bed where Melanie layed unconscious and bleeding from a wound to the head. "She's alive someone call an ambulance. Nick go to the bathroom and get a wet washclothe, so I can stop this bleeding." No one moved, they were all in shock. "Well what are you guys waiting for move it." Yelled Kevin "I'm going to kill that Jonathan guy the next time I see him." Screamed Howie, still standing in the doorway watching Brian on the phone with the ambulance and then with the police. Nick ran back in with a wet towel. Kevin put it on the gash on Melanie's forehead to stop the bleeding. "The ambulance is on its way and so are the police." Said Brian walking over to where Kevin was figgting to get Melanie's head wound to stop bleeding. "How is she?" Asked Howie still to shocked to go to her "She's breathing, but I'm having trouble getting this wound to quit bleeding. Man where are those paramedics?" Kevin said as the paramedics came rushing into the room knocking Howie out of the way. The police were right behind them. "What happened here? " asked a chunky police officer directing his question to no one in particular. "We aren't really sure officer. She was like this when we got here twenty mins ago." Said Kevin getting up off the bed so the paramedics could do their job. "But I'm pretty sure I know who did this to her. Can we talk out in the living room? Howie you come too." Said Kevin taking Howie by the arm and leading him to the living room. After Kevin and Howie told the officer all they knew about Jonathan they followed the ambulance to the hospital. |

After what seemed like hours the doctor finally came out to talk to them. "So how is she doc?" Asked Brian "Well, Miss Davis is stable. She has a pretty bad gash in her head, but we have determined that she didn't suffer any brain damage. Her left arm was broken at the elbow, so I have put a cast on it. She made need surgery if it doesn't heal on its own. We will leave it on her for 3 months to see if it will heal on its own. Other than that we can probably release her as soon as she wakes up." Said the doctor "Can I see her?" Asked Howie "Yes you can she is in room 301." The doctor said and walked off to tend to other patients "Do you want someone to go in with you?" Asked Kevin with a worried look "No I can go alone. If I need someone I'll let ya know." He said and left to go to Melanie's room Howie walked to Melanie's room, but stopped dead in his tracks when he got to the door and saw Jonathan standing at Melanie's bedside "What in hell do you think you are doing here?" He asked him walking into the room towrds Jonathan "I came to check on Melanie. What the hell happened to her?" He ssked as if he didn't know. "As if I need to tell you. You know I should kick your ass right here, right now." Howie shot at him in a hiss "Man I don't know who you think you are, but you just can't walk around making threats against people like that. Besides who's to say you're not the one who did this to her." He said with an evil smile playing on his lips That did it, Howie pumched Jonathan in the eye. And before long they were in the hallway, on the floor going at each other. Howie sat on top of Jonathan beating his fists into his face. Kevin was the first one to hear the commotion and ran down the hall towards the two guys. When he realized it was Howie doing the fighting he grabbed him by the arms and pulled him off the other guy. A security guard that was right behind Kevin pulled Jonathan up off the floor. It took every ounce of strength the two guys had just to keep them from going at it again. "Hey you two either calm down or I'm going to have to arrest you." Said the security guard "Let go of me Kev I'm gonna kill this punk." Growled Howie I'm not letting you go until you calm down Howie, now stop fighting me." Said Kevin "Who is this guy?" Asked AJ as him, Nick and Brian walked up from behind them "This punk is the one that put Melanie here in the hospital." Spat Howie still trying to get out of Kevin's grip "Son what are you talking about?" Asked the security guard "This punk right here best the crap out of my bestfriend and then has the nerve to show up here as if he doesn't know what he did." Said Howie "Man you don't know what you are talking about." Said Jonathan pulling out of the security guards grip "Now if you will excuse me I have to be going." He said and started walking down the hall "This isn't over man." Yelled Howie and wiggled out of Kevin's grip and stormed into Melanie's room. |

Once inside Melanie's room he began to gather up her clothes and put them in a bag. "Howie what are you doing? " Brian asked from the door "I'm going to ask the dr if Mel can go home now even though she isn't awake yet. I don't want him coming back here and killing her. Would you help me out and go find her dr?" He said looking to see if he had forgotten anything of hers. "Sure buddy but I don't think he is going to let you just walk out of here with her before she wakes up." Said Brian and went to find a nurse or the dr Kevin, AJ and Nick walked into the room as Howie walked over to the bed and tried to get Melanie to wake up. "Man have you totally flipped your lid? You shouldn't try to wake Mel up before you hear what the dr has to say." Said Nick sitting down in a chair and looking at Howie "You wanted to see me Mr Dorough?" Asked the dr coming into the room with Brian on his heels. "Yes Dr. Petrie I do. I want to know if there is any way I can go ahead and take Melanie home even though she is still unconscious? I am afraid that her ex-boyfriend is going to do something to her here." He said "Well it is against my better judgement, but I did happen to see the fight between you and that young man. And I happen to agree with you. Let me run some more tests on her to determine if it is wise to send her home before she regains consciousness. Will you give me an hr Mr. Dorough?" Asked the dr looking at Melanies chart "Sure he will doc won't you Howie?" Said Kevin so sternly thay everyone looked at Howie for his reaction. "Yeah sure whatever as long as she gets out of here before that creep comes back." Said Howie knowing that it isn't smart to argue with Kevin "Good now if you guys will wait in the waiting room we can get started." Said the dr who was getting ready to page a nurse into the room. "Mr Dorough? We have ran every test that I can think of and I have come to a decision. Miss Davis can go home unconscious with you as long as you call me if she goes into shock or if anything more serious happens, also you have to sign a release form stating that you take full responsibility for her care. And if that she should die or anything else serious happens that you not her will sue the hospital." He said "I'll sign anything and do anything you ask me to do. I just want to get her as far away from that creep as I can." He said standing up "Fine if you will wait in Miss Davis' room I will send the nurse in with the neccessary paperwork and discharge instructions and then you can be on your way" said Dr. Petrie and left the room "Do you want us to stay with you and help you out?" Asked Kevin "No you guys can go ahead and leave and go home. I will be fine." He said You're not taking her back to her apartment are you?" Asked Brian "No I am taking her back to my house. Jonathan doesn't know where I live. Besides I have a guest bedroom right next to my room and I can watch her condition more closely there." He said "Okay but call us if you need anything or need us." Said Kevin getting up to leave with the rest of the guys following "I will thanks guys for being here for Mel I know she would be glad that you were." He said and headed down the hall to her room As he walked into her room a nurse walked in behind him and handed him some instructions and he form stating that he would be responsible for Melanie's well being. When he finished signing the papers and the nurse went over the instructions from the dr, he picked Mel up and left the hospital with her. |
