Dean and two of the men were talking quietly in the corner. "I think we should bring in the tall, blond one first. He's shaking in his shoes, he won't give us any trouble." Dean said. He looked over at Aileen. "And they'll make such a cute couple." he smirked. As the two men left, Dean called after them, "Don't forget to bring in the boyfriend too!"

All four of the men had to bring Kevin in. The earlier punch had not slowed him down. He was furious. After a few more punches and a scream from Aileen when she saw his bruised and battered face, he settled down somewhat. They quickly pushed him into a chair opposite the bed and tied his legs and hands to it.

"Oh my God, what have you done to her?" Kevin yelled. One of the men ran over and pushed his gun into Kevins neck.

"Just sit back and enjoy the show buddy, no one will get hurt that way."

"Aileen, are you okay, have they done anything to hurt you?" Aileen looked numbly over at Kevin. She was spread-eagled on the bed, her hands and ankles bound to the bedposts. Her clothing had been removed - all except her bra and panties. No, she hadn't been hurt, at least, not physically. "I'm so sorry, baby, this is all my fault! You shouldn't have to be involved in this. I'm going to kill these bastards!" Kevin started struggling against the ropes that held him tight. His wrists were close to bleeding from his efforts. "I won't let them do anything to you, I swear." he promised. "They won't get away with this!"

At that moment the men and Dean returned. Two of the men pushed Nick into the room ahead of them. His face was pale and he looked like he might throw up. Aileen feared he was going to faint. "Are you two having a good conversation?" Dean asked. He smiled and gave Nick a hard shove that landed him on the bed beside Aileen. "Perhaps you were talking about what you can do with this one?"

"No!" Kevin screamed, realizing what they wanted from Aileen and Nick. "Nick, whatever they ask you to do, for God's sake, don't! They won't hurt anyone! These cowards don't have the guts!" Nick couldn't look at either of them, he had a feeling of what was going on, but he was paralyzed with fear. "Nick!" Kevin called out again. Before he could say anything else, one of the men pushed a gun to his head.

"One more word, and you're dust!" he spat out.
