Jasmine

Jasmine POV

The hot water is running over my body. I feel so overwhelmed and helpless. How could I let this happen to Chanel? I did not let this happen. I hope she is okay. I hear Bauer moving around. He peaks into the bathroom.

“You okay?” he asks.

“No. I mean yes. I mean I do not know,” I answer him.

He stands at the door with his back turned so he cannot see me. “You are being stupid. You have seen me naked all night. And if I remember correctly you were banging my best friend while I was trying to shower,” I say.

“I was not banging her. We were just making out,” he says with a laugh.

“Oh my bad,” I say.

“Chanel was fun, but that is all it was just fun,” Bauer says.

“I am sure she will agree with that statement,” I say.

“Are you staying in there all night?” Bauer asks.

“Nope, I am getting out,” I say.

I step out of the shower. Bauer watches me dry my body. I wrap myself in a towel. I take a smaller towel and put my hair in it.

“Why don’t you pour us a drink while I finish up in here. That way you can tell me all about your brothers,” I say.

“Yes ma’am,” Bauer says.

Bauer leaves me to try to put myself together in the bathroom. I am going to get Chanel back. I believe Bauer will help me. I need to figure out a way to get all of the women out of there.

I brush my hair and towel it dry a little more. I hand up my towels and grab a robe off the hook. I wrap up in it and tie it tight. I don’t need anything jumping out at Bauer tonight. I think he has had enough.

I walk into the suite and see Bauer sitting so sweetly on the couch waiting with a bottle of whiskey, shot glasses, and a coke for us. I think I have drunk way too much over the last few days. I walk over to the window to check the rain. It is still raining incredibly hard.

“You know that it is not a hurricane. It’s my brother making all that rain,” Bauer says.

“Walker is making it rain,” I ask.

“No, Raymond. Raymond controls the weather. The entire town is flooding because he is in town. When he leaves it will stop,” Bauer says.

“First off, that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. No, I take that back. The pet sex party on the eleventh floor might be the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard,” I say.

“Yeah, that is for sure,” Bauer agrees with me.

Bauer pours me a drink. He brings it over to me. We stand and watch the rain together through the window.

“I don’t think I like the rain as much now. Bauer, did you go to the parties? Did you take pets up there?” I ask him.

Bauer looks at me completely in awe that I even asked him. “No, I do not agree with what they are doing up there,” Bauer says.

“Is that why you moved out of the hotel?” I ask him.

“For the most part. Walker and I have a troublesome relationship,” Bauer says.

“I can see that,” I say.

I stand at the window with the curtain still in my hand. Bauer is standing watching the rain with me. I let go of the curtain and look into his eyes. I see something different. I see him. I do not think I have ever really seen him before. Not the real him. Not this humble and kind Bauer. I lean in and kiss him.

As our press to one another moving slowly I feel something strange about him. He just feels different. He pulls me in closer to him. His touch is so gentle with me.

“Well, isn’t this sweet? The little slut and my bastard brother,” Walker says.

We did not hear him come into the room. Bauer stands in front of me. Raymond follows Walker into the room.

“Walker just let her go,” Bauer says.

Walker walks closer to me and Bauer. “Well, I guess I could. Are you even worried about Chanel or are you just worried about fucking my brother?” Walker asks.

“I am worried about Chanel,” I protest.

Walker comes closer. Bauer does not move. He stays between Walker and me.

“Earlier you said you wanted to be mine and now you are getting ready to get on your knees for Bauer. Oh, wait you already did that upstairs. Are you even thinking about Chanel? Poor Chanel. You just left her up there,” Walker says.

I push Bauer to the side. “Walker please release Chanel,” I beg him.

“I think I will keep her as your replacement. I think she will be more fun anyway,” He says.

Walker turns to leave the room. “I am going back upstairs to fuck your friend,” he says.

“Walker you suck son of a bitch. Why? Why are you being like this?” I ask him.

“Oh, honey. We are GODS! We do as we please,” he says to me in a thundering voice.

I run at him but Bauer grabs me. “Don’t. It will not end well,” he says calmly.

“You are a sick bastard,” I scream at him.

Walker stops. “I am sick. Just remember honey, you’ve been in my bed. I know exactly how sick and twisted you really are,” He says to me.

I shake my head as he walks out the door. Why did I sleep with him? Why did I let him do those things to me? What is wrong with me?

I collapse into Bauer. Bauer holds on to me as Walker and Raymond make their exit.

“You can have her Bauer,” Walker screams from the hall.

Bauer tries to comfort me. “We have to get Chanel back,” I say.

Bauer rubs my back as he holds me tightly. “We will,” he says.

“Now, we need to get her out of there now,” I beg him.

“I may have a way but there is no way to get her out tonight. We can leave here in the morning,” he says.

“I cannot leave her here,” I cry.

“Jasmine we have to leave here to get what we need to get her out,” he says.

“Okay, but either way we have to come back for her,” I say.

“We will, I promise you,” Bauer says.
