Joey just wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer, though he remained leaning against the counter. He liked her being there at his side. It was nice. "He kept trying to show me his real face too. It was...terrible. That was the worst thing though. I mean, looking back on it. I was still thinking I could get out of there without anything too terrible happening at that point and then he violated me like that."
He shook his head and continued, "and then I was sort of too weak to protest anything more. Two weeks in he promised me I could leave if I never saw Patrick again. I was so mad at Patrick for not coming to rescue me that I would have said yes, but I knew making a deal with the devil was stupid so I said no. So I was there longer. Sometimes he wasn't even there, he just let his stupid minions play at torture. I thought, near the end, I was just going to starve to death and it was starting to not sound so horrible. I mean, I didn't feel hungry any more. I mean, it hurt, but everything hurt. I was just wasting away. And then for some reason they just dumped me in an alley and Patrick found me."
