Blue Suede Shoes

I slid back into the mansion and looked around. "Elvis!" I called out.

I smiled softly and peeked around. I held his gift behind my back as I snuck upstairs. I swung the door open and my bright smile turned into a horrified frown.

A woman naked sat on top of him and looked over with a grin. He stared shirtless with wide eyes. "E-Emily!" He called.

I dropped his shoes and shook my head. My eyes ripped from the scene and I grabbed my jacket from the chair. He shoved the woman off of him and quickly got up. He grabbed my shoulder and I stared up at him. "Don't touch me." I spat.

He stood not completely naked, but only wearing his underwear. "Please...just listen to me." He whispered shaking as the woman grinned walking over.

She wrapped her arms around him and I shook my head disgusted. I stormed out as tears began to run down my cheeks. He chased after me for a moment before stopping at his door. I looked back one last time and shook my head. Pain filled my heart as he called. "Miss Clawdy! Please!" He cried out as I slid away.

I wasn't going back to my old home...I didn't know what to do. I rubbed my eyes and sighed softly. I sat on a street bench holding my head in my hands. My life turned to shambles once the day turned to night....

A man found me. He seemed kind at first and even took me to his home. He said I could stay for a while and that he didn't mind. But things changed as soon s he closed the door.

He locked the door behind him and something happened. He slammed me to the floor and tied my feet and hands. I cried out for help, but no aid came. He gagged me as I struggled. He shoved me into a closet and I looked around. It was full of Elvis memorabilia. "He took away my wife...I'll take away his love." He laughed cruelly.

I stared shaking before seeing the pictures of his wife with Elvis. She was everywhere...there were even pictures of him and I...but I was marked out of them.

I sat curled in the tiny room and stared down at the ground. I wondered if Elvis knew he was with a psycho. The next few days I stayed curled up alone. I got fed every once and a while, but he mostly kept me in the dark scared. I heard something familiar... the woman's voice. "Come on...oh don't be scared. I'm sure you'll enjoy it here!" The woman laughed.

She opened the door and threw someone on top of me. I stared as the man struggled. I stared before realizing it was just Elvis. I stared and shook my head. He struggled before freezing. He started to calm down and he shook his head. His eyes seemed to tell it all. He rested his head against me and I curled up with tears.

Several days passed and the lady would take him away. I knew what she was doing and each time it hurt to see him thrown back in with an ashamed look on his face.

It felt like months before I finally I heard sirens. Police rushed into the closet and untied us both. I gasped and rubbed my sore jaw. Elvis stood and grabbed me holding me close.

The woman apparently killed her husband while we were still here and had planned to kill me next. I watched as the woman screamed and I stared with fear. I held on to Elvis and tears fell from my cheeks. "It's alright Miss Clawdy...I won't let you go." He whispered as he walked me out.

He looked around and sighed. We walked home almost in silence. I was too afraid to say anything and he looked down. "I didn't cheat on you...she attacked me that night and forced my clothes off and tried to rape me..." He whispered looking down.

He held on to me and sighed. I held him tight and nodded. "I'm sorry..." I whispered.

He led me to his bathroom and turned the water on for a bath. I stared at the ground as he stroked my hair. He slid into the water and looked to me. "Come on...it's okay." He whispered.

I stared up at him and blinked. I slowly nodded and slid into the tub. He held me close and nuzzled against me. "We spent two weeks together in a closet..." He said with a chuckle.

"I never thought I would be stuck in a closet with any one honestly." I whispered softly.

He gently rubbed my body. "I love you..." He whispered in my ear.

I froze and blinked. "Really?" I whispered softly.

I fell into a shock... No one had ever told me that they loved me. My parents never even spoke those three words. Did he truly mean it? My heart fluttered like the first time I heard him sing.

He nodded and kissed me gently. "I've never felt so good... You're beautiful, kind, sweet. Every thing that I need and want." He told me stroking my hair.

"My life is complete with you in it." He added with a small smile.

"I love you too." I whispered softly.
