CHAPTER 2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Next Morning~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tori moaned aloud, and slowly opened her eyes. Her sides were killing her. She lifted up her shirt and looked at her bruised stomach. "Oh great, I hope Howie doesn't see this. He'll just start bitching at me again." She thought to herself as she pulled her shirt back down.
She looked around the room to find Howie, but he wasn't there. She was about to call his name, when he walked into the room carrying a trey of breakfast food.
"Morning sleepy head!" he said cheerfully.  He walked in and set the trey down on the bed. "You hungry?"
"Yea, thanks." Tori said as she tried to sit up, and moaned again at the pain on her side.
"What's wrong is it your stomach?" Howie said seeing her grab her stomach, obviously in pain.
"No I'm ok, it's just a cramp." Tori said quickly, to cover up.
"Are you sure?" he asked unsurely.
"Yes, I'm sure Howie." She reassured him. 'God, I hate lying to him like this.' She silently thought as she picked a piece of toast and began to eat.
Soon after she was done, she fell back asleep. Howie took the trey and cleaned up. When he came back in the room, he looked at Tori. After debating with himself he decided to look at her stomach just to make sure.  'Oh my God!!! TORI!!! How could anyone do this to you??' he thought as he pulled her shirt back down.

"WHERE THE FUCK IS SHE!!!!" Corey screamed.
"I don't know!! She just walked out of here. I don't know where she went sir." The bar tender said, as Corey held him off the ground.
"YOU'RE LYING, TELL ME WHERE SHE IS GOD DANMIT!!!!!" Corey yelled again.
"I swear to you, I don't know where she went. All that I know is that she said something about going to a friend's house in Kissimmee." The bartender stammered.
With that Corey dropped him, and stormed out of the bar. "I'm gonna find that lying, whore if it's the last thing I do, and God help her when I do, because he is the only one who can save that bitch now." As he said that he sped down the highway, towards Howie's house.
