He looked at her and shook his head.

"We'll take care of this privately. No cops."

She tried to move to get her phone back but he moved , she groaned out a bit, as she was hurting a bit.

Candy: This isn't right..

She said as she started to black out, fighting to not pass out.  She was wanting to get help.

He helped her set in the back of his car.

"We'll get you medical care. I have someone on the way who can help us both."

She was scared , but had nothing she could do, she didn't know who he was at the moment as she just passed out after a bit.  When she did come too she was laying in a bed she groaned out, looking around some not knowing where she was, she went to move , but found herself tied down,

Candy: Let me go.

She said as her vision was blurred but she was pretty upset.

Steven was talking to the guy in the room and looked at her when he noticed she was awake.

"You may not want to move around too much. You have some pretty severe injuries. You are strapped down to prevent you from injuring yourself more."

She looked around , this didn't look like a hospital.

Candy: I want to go to a hospital, this isn't right.  I should be at a hospital.

She said thinking about it.

Steven looked at her and sighed.

"You are in a private hospital, Candi. You will get better care here. I promise."

She looked at him when he said that, as she didn't like this, she was in an unknown place, she should be some place public, she should be able to talk to the police for what he did, but she couldn't...

He kept her drugged, sedated while they were getting her better. Also working on how to get things taken care of so she couldn't turn this into the police, and wanting to make sure she left it out of the press  Not that she cared there...

It was weeks before she was healed up, and was now just being drugged as Steven was waiting on his lawyer to come with some good news...Or he was hoping at least.

Steven came into the room and smiled.

"You are getting out of here today."

He sat on the edge of the bed.

"I've told my driver to take you anywhere you want to go."

She just nodded a bit as she was really out of it, no longer really knowing what was going on, or what had happened.

He smiled softly at her. He handed her the clothing that had been brought for her.

"You have a visitor. Says she's a friend of yours."

She just nodded a bit as she watched him go, she then after a moment seen Jesse come running in, glad to see she was alright, as she didn't like what had been happening..

Jesse: Come on, I'm getting you out of here.

She said as Jesse helped her get dressed, and then helped her out of the place, and to a waiting car..

Steven watched her leave and grinned. He knew she would be back. He had made certain of that. The drugs would have her wanting to be near him. The baby would have her tied to him.

Candy finally made it back home, Jesse called the police to let them know that Candy had been found and was safe.  She didn't feel up to going to the doctors, still in a haze about what was going on...

Jesse: You just relax, I'm going to get you some meds, and some food.

She said as she locked the door when she left.

He smiled as he thought about everything. He looked around the house thinking how great it was going to be to have little feet running around in it again.

Too bad the drugs didn't work like he thought they would as a few days had gone by, and Candy hadn't returned back to his place, or called or anything.  He had her checked in on, and saw that she was doing better, but didn't seem to have a memory of much that went on...

Steven frowned knowing that this wasn't working as planned. He knew what he needed to do. It should be easy.

He waited until she was asleep, then slid the hose through her bedroom window and pumped the drugs into her room. He knew they were odorless and invisible so she would never know.

What he didn't count on though was someone seeing him , as she was in a complex near other buildings... Cops were called, as he was barely able to get out unseen, as the hose was taken out and Candy rushed back to the hospital, before much could get to her.

What Candy didn't realize was that he had an insider in the hospital who had been helping him so she got the drugs anyway. :p

What no one realized is Candy had no idea what she was even suppose to realize so not sure what it all really mattered anyways... So when she was let out she had no idea what she was so drawn too, cause no one had remembered to really remind her of anything as she was just heading home not feeling well.

When Steven realized that she probably didn't realize what she was supposed to realize, he sent someone to help her realize what she is supposed to realize without her realizing that he was helping her realize it.

The guy who was sent to  make her come to a realization,  wasn't overly sure how he was suppose to do that, so said fuck it and just picked her up and took her to Steven's and led her inside... Sat her on the couch and told her to stay put...

Once Steven realized she was there, he came to the realization that she still didn't realize why she was there.

He looked at her frowning a bit.

"Do you realize what is going on?"

She looked up at him...

Candy: No I don't realize what this is, I didn't even realize I was at your place, because the guy who dropped me off didn't realize that may be something I should know... I hope you realize he left, and I should leave too.

She said getting up, realizing this probably wasn't a good place to be right now.

He gently sat her back down.

"You aren't in any shape to go anywhere, Candy. You just set here and rest. I'll get you some water."

She sat there watching him, not really trusting him but did sit there as he went getting her some water then sat down next to her, getting her to drink some.

Candy: Thank you.

She said after a moment.

He smiled softly at her.

"How are you feeling?"

She looked at him as she was thinking about it.

Candy: I'm feeling alright.

She said as she didn't feel sick or anything anymore.

He smiled happy to hear that.

"Good. Have you been keeping yourself busy?"

She looked at him as she shrugged a bit, not really feeling that she had done much.

Candy: I haven't done much.. I get taken from place to place to hospital to place and don't get much time to do anything.

He frowned as he listened,

"Oh. You are welcome to stay here if you want somewhere to rest and relax."

She looked at him when he offered, knowing that she should say no, because of all that had happened, but she didn't seem to be able too, not knowing anything about the drugs in her system, as she nodded her head after a moment.

Candy: Thank you.

He held his hand out to her.

"I'll show you to a room where you can rest."

She nodded as she got up and followed him.

Candy: Okay.

He led her to the room beside his.

"Help yourself to anything you need."

Candy looked around a bit as she was walking into the room.  She looked at him a moment

Candy: Thank you.

She said as he helped her to the bed as she sat down on it.

He showed her that there were clothes in the closet and dresser.

"They are my daughters. I don't think she will mind if you borrow something. She never wears them."

He pointed out the bathroom to her.

She nodded a bit hearing what he said as she was thinking about it.

Candy: Alright, thank you.

He smiled softly at her.

"I will go and let you rest."

She smiled a bit as she nodded her head thinking about it as she watched him go.  She looked around a bit then stripped down as she crawled into bed to sleep a bit.

He watched her sleeping on the monitor. Things were finally starting to work out his way and he couldn't be happier.

She had no idea what he was up too, or why she was even apart of anything he wanted, at the moment she didn't care either as she just curled up, resting. 

He turned off the monitor then headed to his own room. He stopped by hers and tapped on the door.

"Candy, would you like some water or a snack?"

She had been sleeping as she woke up hearing him a bit.  Groggery and shaking her head some.

Candy: No ty.

He nodded.

"Sorry for waking you. Go back to sleep. I'll see you in the morning."

Candy looked at him when he said that as she shook her head a bit.

Candy: It's alright.

He smiled softly.

"I just wanted to make sure you had everything and was okay. You go back to sleep."
