I woke up with the sun shining in my eyes. I glance over to Melina. She doesn't realize I'm awake. she's laying there, holding my hand, examining my scars, from past fights. I watch in awe, as she kisses my bruised knuckles with her perfect lips. she glances up to me. we just look each other deeply in the eyes. I give her a kiss. she tastes amazing. She's mine. nobody will hurt her. Melina climbs out of the tangled sheets, and walks to the bathroom, I notice dark spots all over her body, I grab her hand, and pull her back to me. I examine her bruises. they are shaped like my hand. It must've happened last night. The handling shaped bruises rest on her hips, around her breasts, her arms, and thighs. "Mel, I'm so sorry" I pull her close and bury my head into her chest. She runs her fingers through my hair "Jake I'm fine, it doesn't hurt" I sigh. She then turns pale and rushes to get dressed. I pull on my clothes and chase after her, I chase her out to the stairs where I see her gasp and start crying, I pulled her close and held her "shh, it's going to be okay" I direct her vision away from Joshes corpse. "Paul did this didn't he?!" she cried out. I chose to be silent. I don't want to lose her. "Jake, we have to call for help." she starts heading for the control room. I quickly stopped her. "You can't do that" she looked at me with disbelief "People died last night!" I sighed and looked at the ground. "go ahead" I knew for sure, I was going to lose her. when we reached the control room Melina went for the walkie talkie, but freaked out when she saw the wires were cut. she tried turning the yacht on, but the engine just stuttered. "How the hell are we supposed to leave?!" I looked at the ships electric panel "Mel, we are not going anywhere, Paul must have busted the panel last night" I sighed. this was stupid. they should have never tried to do anything. It would have been best if he never met Josh. but orders are orders.
