**Joe’s POV**
I picked Lauren up gently from the passenger seat as she had fallen asleep. I took her to the elevator and carried her to my bed. I laid her down on the bed as softly as I could, her half naked, bruised body still covered by my coat. I pulled the covers up to her neck and stroked her hair.
“I’m sorry baby girl, big brothers here, I will make it right” I whispered to her as she slept deeply. I kissed her cheek and felt my phone buzzing.
“Hey Simon... yeah I found her, thanks for that... no he had managed to climb out the window... cheers, keep me updated” I hung up the phone. I hope manages to find him before I do because he will wish that he was locked up if I get my hands on him. How dare he touch my baby girl like that!
Lauren fidgeted in the bed as she laid on her side facing me. She seemed very restless so I laid beside her and stroked her hair until I finally fell asleep.
**Lauren’s POV**
I woke up in a panic, thinking I was still in that dirty hotel room. Joe came running in wrapped in a towel, all wet from the shower.
“It’s okay baby girl” he said sitting next to me and holding me. “Your safe”. His words echoed through my ears as I melted into his wet abs. He pulled away and held my cheek.
“Do you think you will be able to have a shower?” He said with genuine concern on his face. I nodded hesitantly but I wanted to scrub all of the DNA from him off of me. Joe kissed my cheek and went into the bathroom to turn the shower on. He walked over to me and helped me to stand up. He walked me into the bathroom and stood behind me, unhooking my bra gently. I looked back at him and he said.
“Don’t worry baby girl, you are too damaged at the moment for me to do anything” he smirked. I smiled at him and let him continue to take down my pants. He guided me into the shower, taking his towel off and walking in after me. I flinched as the water hit my cuts. Joe placed his hand on my arm and whispered in my ear.
“We need to clean them babe”. He then picked up the block of soap and started to rub it over my back. I closed my eyes and enjoyed every motion. He then knelt down and stroked the soap up and down my legs.
“I’m going to have to put a bit on your cuts babe” he said, warning me of the pain. I looked at him, slightly scared but nodded as I shut my eyes and clenched my fists in preparation. He put his palm gently to my cuts that had a little bit of soap on them and slowly massaged it in. I tensed up as the pain intensified. He grabbed the shower head and washed it off then put it back. He turned me around. His body was glistening from the water that trickled down it. I placed my palm to his chest and he rubbed the soap over mine going down to my stomach. He looked down at me with a look that I couldn’t quite work out.
“I thought that I had lost you” he softly said placing his forehead to mine. I looked up into his eyes and we stood there for a moment, examining each others faces and allowing the water to drop down our bodies. I looked away in doubt. He grabbed my chin and turned it back to face him.
“What is it babe?” He asked. I couldn’t hold it in anymore I had to tell him how he made me feel and how confusing he can be.
“You never kiss me or treat me like someone who is special to you” I said. He looked at me with confusion in his face.
“You punish me brutally and then when I think that all you want me for is heated s*x, you take me to the shower and hold me like I’m the only girl for you; but then you don’t even kiss me”. He didn’t say anything. I rolled my eyes and went to walk out the shower and he pulled my hand to turn me back around and leant me against the wall gently, placing his hand on my neck and pressing his lips against mine. My stomach felt like it was doing back flips and my heart started to race. So this is what it feels like to be the girl in all of those romantic films. Finally getting the kiss they have been longing for.
I closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his neck, kissing him deeper and harder as the passion between us intensified. He caressed my neck with his hand pulling my body so that our bare wet skin touched and rubbed together as we moved in sync. I didn’t care about my cuts and bruises in that moment. It was so perfect that I had to take advantage of it. I trailed my fingers down his chest and gripped his d**k with my hand, moving it and making it hard. He groaned under his breath and he continued to kiss me. After I had seduced him he stopped and said out of breath “we can’t babe”. He ran his hands near my bruises. “I don’t want to hurt you”. I looked at him and smiled.
“I want you” I whispered. “It will feel too good to hurt”. He smiled in relief and picked me up, leaning me against the wall. The water kept trickling down our bodies as he pushed his lips onto my neck and placed his d**k on my entrance. He moved his head back so that our eyes connect.
“Are you sure?” He asked. I nodded and he pressed his lips against mine as he pushed into me. I let out a moan and continued to kiss him as he pushed himself against my body. He was so strong I don’t know how he could hold me up like this. I held on to his muscly arms and he pushed in and out, gradually getting faster and then turned me around and saw the cuts. He paused for a moment and said “go in there baby”. I walked into the bedroom, all wet and wrapped in a towel. Joe turned the shower off and pulled the towel off of me and picked me up once again like he did in the shower and kissed me as he carried me over to the bed. He sat down and laid back guiding me up to sit on him. I realised he had done this so that nothing irritates my cuts.
I began to bounce on him , tilting my head back and breathing heavily as he dug deeper with his hips. It felt romantic, not aggressive like normal and I loved it. I wanted this all the time. I leaned down loser to his body and he placed his thumb on my lips. We moved together faster until we climaxed at the same time. I collapsed on his chest, tired and satisfied. I didn’t want to move as it was perfect. The pain of my cuts began to intensify as the feeling of pleasure disappeared. He laid me on my side and kissed my forehead before going to the bathroom to sort himself out.
