Jocelynn paced back and forth in Nathan's living room, she was furiously twirling her hair. Sasha impatiently tapped on the back of her phone that was tucked under her chin.

"It's been an hour" Sasha said.

"She should have been back by now" Jocelynn said

"We should call the cops" Sasha suggested.

"And report what? That our friend hasn't left her house yet?" Jocelynn asked sarcastically.

"Ok, then let's go over there?" Sasha said.

"Are you nuts?!" Jocelynn asked.

"Let's just go over there and see if she's still there, you said she was getting nostalgic maybe she's looking at a photo album or something" Sasha ventured.

"'I'm leaving now' Sasha those were her exact words she said "I'm leaving now" and that was an hour ago!" Jocelynn shrieked.

"Are you coming or not?" Sasha asked standing up.

Jocelynn threw her hands up in the air as if that was a stupid question, of course she was coming.

They drove the 30 minutes to Cassidy's and gasped when they saw Drew's car.

"Maybe she told him she wanted a divorce and they're calmly discussing it" Sasha offered.

"Sasha! She's been polishing Nathan's cue stick for most of her marriage to Drew, I think if calmly discussing it were an option they would have done it by now" Jocelynn said.

"Call the police Jocelynn" Sasha urged "anonymously report a domestic disturbance."

Jocelynn did what Sasha told her to do and 10 minutes later the cops showed up at the Kennsington's door.

They watched from the car as Drew answered the door and invited them in.

"I can't wait till they cart him out in handcuffs" Sasha said

"He's not gonna do well in prison, a pretty boy like that" Jocelynn said shaking her head.

After about two minutes the cops came out of the house smiling and waving to Drew.

"No fucking way! They aren't arresting him?!" Sasha practically screamed.

Jocelynn was speechless.

"Jocelynn say something!" Sasha said firmly "what do we do now?"

Just then Jocelynn's phone rang. It was Cassidy.

Sasha listened to Jocelynn's half of the conversation which consisted of Cassidy interrupting every other word.

"Yeah sure thing" Jocelynn said before firmly hanging up her phone.

"What did she say? Is she ok?" Sasha asked anxiously.

"Oh she's great" Jocelynn answered "she's going to a party with Drew!"

"What? That's what she told you?" Sasha asked with big eyes.

"Yeah" Jocelynn said.

"Drew must have threatened her" Sasha suggested.

"No, I don't think so" Jocelynn said shaking her head "he's sucked her back in"

"How do you mean?" Sasha asked confused.

"My parents used to have it out and it would be like world war 3 and the next day my dad would bring home roses and wine and they'd act like they were on a honeymoon and that nothing bad was going to happen between them ever again. Until it did"

Nathan POV

Nathan flipped through the channels in his hospital bed. There was nothing on so he started to day dream about Cassidy and the night they started their affair.

*flashback*

"She's a perfect little angel" Nathan said setting six month old Arabella down in her crib. "Just like her mother"

"I wasn't an angel 20 minutes ago in your truck" she said seductively.

"I don't know it felt pretty heavenly to me" Nathan joked.

"Take me to bed Nathan" she moaned seductively. "We can do it all over again."

"You're married!" Nathan said, an edge in his voice. Why was she trying to torture him?

Cassidy started to cry and walked out into the living room.

"Cass?" Nathan questioned.

"Get out, just get out" Cassidy cried.

When Nathan went to comfort her she smacked him hard in the face.

"I thought you of all people would understand" she cried.

"Understand what?" He asked impatiently.

"Nothing, just go, you went slumming and got your little buddy off, now you're back on your high horse, so go" she said all out of tears.

"I'm not going to leave until you tell me what's wrong!" He insisted.

"I know what you must think of me, Drew is my husband, we've been married barely a year, were newlyweds for Christ sake! We should be running around naked, fucking like bunnies every time we have the chance" she said.

"Thanks for that image" Nathan joked.

"Sorry" she said.

Nathan looked at her waiting for her to explain

"I lied to you" she sobbed. "When you came to New York and found out I was pregnant...I lied to you because I lied to everyone else but I wanted to tell you the truth so bad"

He pulled her into his arms. He always hated to see her cry.

"Tell me the truth now" he said rocking her back and forth. He didn't push her to say anything, knowing she'd come out with it when she was ready. He just kept rocking her and rubbing her back.

"He..." She sobbed gulping a deep breath "He..." She tried again.

"He raped me" she sobbed into his chest. Nathan squeezed her tight when the realization of her words hit him.

"My parents made me marry him because I "let him knock me up""

She sighed "it's not their fault tho, they think I chose to have drunken sex with him because that's what I told them."

"Why didn't you go to the police?" Nathan asked.

"I was ashamed, I felt guilty and dirty. I mean I hooked up with him before, who would have believed me that he forced himself on me, that I didn't want it?" She said sadly.

"I would have" Nathan said softly.

"After it happened I tried to forget about it. When I found out I was pregnant, I wanted to die. You know I always hated the thought of an abortion, but I was going to get one. Drew found out......it was bad"

"I'm so sorry Cassidy" Nathan said "you should have told me what happened"

"I couldn't find the words, I thought you'd hate me, or worse that you wouldn't believe me"

"I believe you, baby" he said pushing her hair back.

"So, I'm not married, I'm not his wife, I'm his prisoner and this week I'm out on parole" she said.

"I'll do whatever you want me to do, I'm all yours and you're all mine" he said kissing her.

Cassidy took his hand and led him to her bedroom. After the door closed she pushed the straps of her dress off her shoulders and it fell into a pool on the floor. She was completely naked now. She slid his jacket off and then pulled his shirt over his head. She trailed kisses along his chest.

"You're my baby, he's never going to touch you again." He whispered in her ear as they climbed into the bed.

After making love, they kissed for a long time and held each other.

"Don't let me go" she said as he pulled the blankets up over them.
