As Owen left the room, I walked over to Ellie and Valentino to see how she was holding up and how he was helping her. He was taking to her in a calm manner, helping her sit up and laying her back on the backboard of the playroom bed.

"You got her?" he asked, looking over at me.

"Mhm." I hummed in response.

"Alright, I'll go clean up everything else and put them back. Please be gentle with her." he said, walking away and grabbing the things he needed to clean and put away.

Looking down, I watched as Ellie continued to take deep breaths to try and calm her breathing pattern. Fuck she was so beautiful to look at, I don't understand how anyone could hurt such a saint like her. She was nothing but kind, now she was starting to come out of her shell and enjoy her life. I wasn't sure that would last long after what had happened, but we can still fix this, we will help her.

"How are you feeling, angel?" I asked, taking her hand as she squeezed down on it.

"I-I um, I feel.. better." she stumbled over her words, her mind all scrambled.

"You did good for your first time."

She weakly smiled at me while catching her breath, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, princess. Now then, let's go get you into a nice warm bath to help your muscles."

Immediately she started to speak, "No!— I'll um.. I-I can take one tomorrow."

As she spoke, I could hear a slight panic in her voice and I had no idea why. I had assumed Valentino heard it to as his head glanced over at us, looking down at Ellie and then back up to me. I just shrugged my shoulders and said nothing if it.

I looked back at her, "Your muscles will hurt if we don't get you in one now, plus you're all sweaty and you can't wait till tomorrow to shower."

"T-Then I can shower lat—"

"Ellie, this is not up for negotiation." I slightly yelled.

She slightly flinched at my words and the way I said it, looking away from me and fiddling with her fingers on her lap. I knew she did this when she was nervous or scared, I was fucking up and I already knew that too.

I let out a sigh to calm myself down before I spoke again, "It's only one bath, you can sleep after and we'll wake you up for dinner."

She shook her head, whispering under her breath, "No.."

"What did you say?"

She looked back up at me but said nothing, she just stared into my eyes as I did that same thing with her. Losing my patience, I put an arm behind her back and another one under her legs, picking her up and getting a small yelp out of her.

"Lorenzo p-please, put me down!"

"Fight me."

Since her body and became weak already, I knew she could do anything to stop me. I walked over to the bathroom with her in my arms and opened the door, setting her down on the bathroom counter and walking over to the shower.

While the shower ran, I walked over to the bathtub and began to fill that up, putting some things in it. I could hear Ellie behind me, possibly struggling on the counter.
