John and I walked together, hand in hand.

"God, it's so fuckin' cold out 'ere" I mumbled.

John chuckled, taking his jacket off.

He placed his leather jacket over me.

I smirked, "Thanks, John... Leather is gear, isn't it?"

John chuckled again, "It is, truly is. But with your shirt ripped open, of course you'd be cold"

I nodded.

"Though I don't mind the view" I heard John mumbled.

I gently hit him on the arm, "I heard that!" 

We laughed, as he wrapped one arm around me.

"I promise you, Rita. Your father will never harm you again." John said, tightening his grip on me.

I smiled, "Thanks, Johnny"

John and I softly walked inside his home.

John turned to me, "Let me go talk to Mimi" John headed upstairs.

I nodded, as I sat down on a near chair.

I looked around the room, It's quite lovely here... I truly don't wish to be a burden..

"What?! No, John!" I heard Mimi yell.

"She has a fucking daughter and a terrible father! She needs us!" John yelled back.

I sighed, slouching. I shouldn't be here.

I walked up the stairs towards Mimi and John.

"If I'm a burden here, let me leave now and give you peace then. I don't wish to be a bother, Mimi. I can take Linda and we'll find somewhere else then" I shrugged.

Mimi scanned me up and down, "Why is your shirt ripped?" She sternly said.

I sighed, looking down "Me father.."

I heard Mimi sigh, I looked up, she was now looking at John.

"She can stay here." Mimi said.

I smiled, "Thank you very much, M'am! I promise, Linda and I won't cause trouble"

"Alright, alright.." Mimi sighed, walking to her room.

I hugged John tightly, "Thank you so much" I softly said.

John chuckled, "Of course, you'd do the same for me"

I kissed his lips.

"I better go check on Linda" I said to John.

I walked towards John's room, and slowly opened his door.

I smiled, I felt John's presence behind me.

"Aw.. My darling is fast asleep" I whispered.

John softly chuckled, nuzzling his face on my neck.

"You're a great mum" He said.

I chuckled, turning my head to look at him.

"Shut up" I laughed, John pulled me closer and started kissing me.

"I'm just glad to be safe" I whispered.

"As long as you're in my arms, you'll always be safe" John whispered back.

I blushed.
