Josie pov

I curled up into bed letting all my bad thoughts swallow me whole. It's funny how much pain is needed to consume the mind until it finally takes over you body.

I let sleep take over my mind as I closed my eyes and covered my body with my blanket.

Entering dream state

"Come out come out wherever you are, you can't hide away from me"his voice was raspy from all the cigars he smoked that day.

I hid away in the cupboard shaking as tears pooled down my face. I prayed he wouldn't find me why was he doing this he's supposed to be my father

"You better come out little girl I don't want to hurt you" he was going to hurt me either way if I come out or I don't.

I tried to hold my breath maybe if I Didn't breath as loudly he couldn't find me right.

"You little shit if you don't come out right now I'll skin you alive" he footsteps got closer to the closest door. 

Please please please don't let him find me I can't take another beating.

"I'll give you until the count of 5 if I get to 1 I'll make sure I kill you today but if you listen to me I won't hurt you ..."I knew better than to believe him but I wanted to badly trust him again.

So I came out of the closest my small body trembling as I stopped infront of him. He hadn't seen me so I tapped his leg.

"I..I'm h-here daddy"he turned around with a sinister smile on his face.

"You're just like you're mother baby"he picked me up and gave me a hug and it felt really nice but he smelt like a bar

"A utterly useless piece of shit" he pushed me onto the floor. I heard his belt unbuckle as he took it off I tried crawling away.

"No please don't hurt me I promise I'll behave dad"he just smiled as he stalked closer to me

"I'm not you're father you little bitch" after he said that I felt the crack of the belt onto my skin making me scream out in pain

"Please stop hurting me please dad"I tried running away from him but he caught me pushing me down to the floor again and kicking my stomach multiple times.

All I could do was scream out pray that someone could find me , save me it was my slient prayer. Blood seeping from my lips I started seeing stars my body felt so weak and eventually I passed out

3 days later

I woke up with the worst pain shooting through my back and stomach. My skin red and bruised, a sharp pain shot through my head and I could barely stand.  looking around the room and I saw myself in a dark unknown room. There were ropes on my hands and legs and seemed to be  tied to a chair.

Panic clouded my mind as I tried too wiggle out of the ropes. My body hurt immensely but fear made me forget about the pain for a bit. Until water was poured onto me and the dim light in the room got brighter.

I coughed out looking up to see him ...the man I call my father.

"Dad? What's going on please let me g-go."my clothes were wet and so was I but I didn't care I just wanted to leave this place.

"I'm so sorry sweetheart I know I shouldn't have taken out my anger on you I don't know what got over me. Do you forgive me ?"

"It's okay Dad I forgive you."my lips shivering as I gave him a small smile.

"You don't forgive me I can see it. You hate me don't you. Is it because I'm a bad father? Hmm? I'm trying it's not easy raising a child alone Jo it's not easy especially when you keep disrespecting me so much. Why can't you just listen to me?"

"No no you aren't I understand dad. And I really do forgive you, I'm sorry for not listening to you I'll try not to do it again. I just want you to be happy and I don't hate you I love you."

"See that's a good girl now how about you take your punishment like the good girl that I know you are isn't that right sweetie" I simply nodded my head but he didn't like that.

"Answer me when I ask you a question"he raised his voice making me lose my smile flinching away from his voice.

"Yes sorry. I'll take the punishment dad I just want to make you proud"he smiled at me and he put a mental thing on the chair it had a red wire to it and I didn't know what it would do.

The wire lead all the way to a box with an on and off button. (A/N - Idk how to describe this but it's basically an electrical chair)

"What are the wires for dad"he just went over to the wall with the wires sticking out if it he kept his smile I watched him pull down a lever.

Pain ....a pain that both numbs you and kills you. That's all I could feel as a rush of pain coursed through my body I let out a scream that could probably be heard by the entire town. I couldn't even speak then he pulled the lever down and it stopped yet the Pain was still in my body and mind.

And he kept putting me through that pain over and over and over again until my body couldn't take anymore and I passed out once again

Please make it stop

Please it hurts

Someone please save me

Exiting dream state

I woke up with a cold sweat running down my face and Vincent stood over me hugging me so tightly and I let him. I felt numb but in a way the pain brought me comfort.

Silent tears ran down my face as I pulled away slightly looking at him.

"I'll do it...I'll marry Jasper"
