Finding Love Along the Tracks Chapter 6 – Kelsy’s Birthday

John woke up about 10 till 8 in the morning. He looked over and he saw Kelsy still asleep. He watcher he as she slept. Even though they had been a couple for over two months, his mind still had not fully comprehended the fact the she was now his girlfriend. He had loved her ever since the 6th grade, but he had a fear that she would reject him, and he would loose his best friend.

He leaned over her and gave her a light kiss on the forehead. She stirred when she felt his lips on her head. She opened her eyes and saw John looking at her with a smile on his face.

“Hmmmm, Good morning, baby.” She said softly, still half asleep

“Good morning, beautiful,” he replied, “Did you sleep well?” he asked?

“Very much so. I sleep much better when I am with you.” She told him.

“I am the same way, I constantly think about you when we are apart, and there have been some nights I got very little sleep.”

“I am not that bad,” she said, “I still get plenty of sleep, but I have been dreaming about us a-lot lately.”

“What kind of dreams?” He asked, he was curious to know.

“Mostly involving us being married and having a family.” She said, kissing him again

“We don’t have to wait to get married to start a family, my love.” He told her.

“I know, baby. I think I would really like to wait until we are married to start a family, but what happens, happens” She responded

“I would to, but you know what? If you end up pregnant before then, I would be so very happy and excited.” He told her

“I would be too, baby. I know you would make an excellent father” She replied

“And you would be a great mother!” he told her as he kissed her again. He was a bit worried, he had never asked if she had been on birth control, after all, the two times they made love, he had cum not only in her pussy, but in her womb.

“Like I said, what happens, happens, and I could take it either way.” She said with a smile.

The two of them started to cuddle, enjoying the warmth of their bodies pressed against each other. They were still completely naked after their love making the previous night.

“Oh, Baby?” He said with a playful tone in his voice

“What sweetie?” She asked

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” He yelled as he flipped her over and gave her ass 18 spankings and one to grow on.

She screeched in surprise, and she felt his hand spanking her. It did not hurt, but it actually made her very horny. She liked being submissive. She had not told him yet, but she had a secret fantasy that he would tie her up, blindfold and gag her. She wanted to call him ‘Master.’ She was working out a way to tell him. She had not figured it out, but when she did, she knew that they would have a-lot of fun.

Another thing that he did not know was that she was almost ready to have a baby. She never told him that she was on birth control. He never asked. She really wanted to give herself to him the night he took her and made her his woman. She had been afraid if she had said something, that he would have wanted to her to go on the pill before anything happened. The one thing that she did have going for her was that her periods were regular, and when they came, she was prepared for it. She knew when it would be safe to have sex, and when not to. She knew when she really was ready, that all they had to do was make love during one of her fertile days.

After John had given her spankings, he heard he emit a low moan, not one from the pain, but the one he know from when they were fooling around. Before he could inquire about the moan, the phone rang. The caller ID said “Private”. John went ahead and answered the phone.

“Hello?” He asked

“Hi, yes, is this John Walker?” The voice said on the other side

“Yes it is, may I ask who is calling?”

“Hello, Mr. Walker, this is Detective Groat with the Kirkwood Police Department, how are you today?” He asked

“I am doing fine, what can I do for you Detective?”

“I was calling to inform you that Brenda will no longer have to worry about her father. When officers approached his residence, he came outside with a rifle. He fired a shot in the air and warned them to stay back, and that they had no business at his home. The officers repeatedly demanded him to put the gun down, but he refused. When he lifted the gun and pointed at it at the officers, they opened fire. He was struck 3 times in the chest, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.” He explained

“A suiting end to such a low life scum.” John replied.

“We need you to bring Brenda to the morgue so she can identify the body.” The detective told him.

“When do you need us down there?”

“Now, if that would be possible, the coroner has just finished the autopsy. The sooner she can ID him, the sooner his remains can be disposed of.”

“Okay, I will wake Brenda up and we will be over there as soon as we can.” John told the Detective.

The two said goodbye and he hung up the phone.

“What was that all about, babe?” Kelsy asked

“Brenda’s dad was stupid and pointed a loaded gun at the officers who were trying to arrest him. Needless to say, he is resting some cold stainless steel in a cooler at the morgue.” He told her.

“I guess he had a death wish, loosing his sex slave and his extra source of income, I guess you getting her pregnant was a good thing since it got her out of the hands of that monster, who claimed to be her father.” Kelsy said. She hid her feelings when she found out that John knocked her up on graduation night, but now that she saw what her dad did to her, and the nasty living conditions she lived in, she was more approving of the pregnancy. It helped save their friend.

“Come on, we need to get up and get Brenda so we can head to the morgue. We can take a shower when we get back, the sooner we get this done, the sooner they can destroy his remains. I hope his soul is in Hell’s hell.” He said.

“Hell’s hell, huh? That’s a new one!” Kelsy chuckled a little as she said that. Even in a situation like this, he could still make her laugh.

The two of them were soon dressed, and they walked across the hall to Brenda’s room. They peaked in and saw she was not there. The went downstairs to start looking for her, but they found her right away sitting on the couch watching a sitcom. She noticed them come into the room and she got up. She went straight to Kelsy and gave her a big hug.

“Happy Birthday, Kelsy!” She exclaimed

“Thank you, Brenda.” She replied. She was not expecting a hug.

“Brenda, we got a call from Detective Grout a few minutes ago.” John told her.

“Do they have them at the station?” She asked.

“Well, you could say that, but he is not in a cell, he is in the morgue.” John explained

“Did he kill himself?” There was no remorse, no sudden breakdown, no emotion when she asked this. To her, he was just a monster who had used her like a fuck doll.

“No, when the officers went out to the house, he came outside with his gun, after a few minutes, he pointed it towards the officers and they took action taking him out.” he explained.

“Brenda, I am so sorry.” Kelsy said, thinking that she would be upset with hearing the news.

“Why the hell should I be happy that old bastard is dead! He deserved it! I hope is burning in hell with Hitler sitting next to him!” she exclaimed. “I am happy he is dead, mainly because he will never get to know his grandchild!

The two of them look at her with surprise. Even though he had tortured her for the past 8 years, they both figured that she would still have some sort of emotional attachment to him. After all, he was her father.

“Brenda, we need to go down to the station so you can ID his body.” John told her. “The sooner you ID him, the sooner they can dispose of his body.”

“Good, let me get dressed, I hope they toss him into a meat grinder and feed the him to lions at the Zoo.” She said as she got up.

It became apparent to them after she said this, that she hated him with a passion. I guess he never did show her anything other than his cock the past 8 years, and not even an once of compassion or love for his own daughter. She may have been after him, was a bitch to them and even broke into his bedroom, but the life she had lived was despicable. How she managed to live like that and then put on a face in school like she was living on top of the world, and become Cheer-leading captain was beyond them. Kelsy knew that if it was her, she would not have survived the first month. She was now starting to see her as one tough girl who would not let anything get in her way, even if it was being raped and pimped out by her dad on an almost daily basis.

Before long, Brenda came back down the stairs. She has been wearing a loose fighting T-shirt and shorts, but when she came back down, she was wearing a pink sun dress.

“I love your dress, Brenda.” Kelsy complimented

“Thanks, It was one of the few things of my mothers that I saved after she left. I hid it because dad took everything that she had left and tossed it into the Mississippi River.” Brenda explained

“So, I guess by wearing that would be a slap to his face then?” John asked?

“You can say that.”

The three of them walked out the door. It was a beautiful July day, the humidity was low for once, and they took advantage of that. The station was only a few blocks away and was actually across the tracks from the Amtrak station. They didn’t really speak as they walked. They had too much on their minds. Kelsy was thinking about how she wanted to let John know about her fantasy where he was her master, and that after this mornings talk, she was considering starting a family with him sooner than later. She loved him a-lot, and having a baby, she thought, would make them closer together. She already knew John was ready to have a family. John was thinking more about the future. It had only been a couple of months, but he knew that he would marry her someday. He kept thinking about when it would be the right time to actually ask her. As for Brenda, she could not wait to get the ID over with and move on with her life. She had more important things to worry about, with the most important being the baby she was carrying.

When they reached the Amtrak Station, no one was there but Darrel. He never really spoke much, but spent everyday at the station. Scott and Jason usually where there as well, but the girls must have dragged them off to buy something nice to wear to Kelsy’s birthday get together. John could here a train climbing the grade up to the station from the west. He knew it was not a coal train, for once in his life, he was hoping they would not be stopped by the train. He wanted Brenda to be done with her past so she can look forward to her future.

As they neared the road crossing to cross the tracks, the crossing activated. This train was moving faster then what he could here. He knew that it would not be long for the train to pass if it was moving at the track speed of 35MPH.

He was right, the train was moving at track speed and wile he was disappointed that they had to wait for it to pass, he was happy to see it was just the local train that runs from St. Louis out to Jefferson City, Missouri and back to work the railroads customers. The train consisted of 3 older 1970’s built locomotives that came from the Southern Pacific and the Missouri-Kansas-Texas railway. Even though they were now wearing the colors of Union Pacific, he knew by the numbers on the side of the cab of what railroad originally bought them. Behind the locomotives were 16 or 17 freight cars, and much to his surprise and delight, an old Missouri Pacific Caboose bringing up the rear.

“God Damn, of all the days I did not bring my camera!” He explained. Brenda laughed and Kelsy shook her head.

“Know you know, baby, never leave home without it!” She said

“Know you are sounding like that old commercial, Kelsy” Brenda laughed.

After the train had cleared, they strolled past the City Hall and over to the station. They walked inside and Detective Groat was standing just inside the door talking to another officer about a case that involved a missing boy by the name of Shawn Hornbeck. John knew Shawn from a mutual friend, but other than that, he never really said anything more than hi. Shawn had been kidnapped a couple of years before, and the case had grown cold. (Authors note: Shawn was found safe in Kirkwood, he had been forced to live with his kidnapper at his apartment near City Hall after he went missing)

Detective Groat saw them walk in and excused himself from the other officer. He walked over to them and greeted them.

“Thanks for coming over so fast, I didn’t think you would be here so soon, though. Brenda, I give you my condolences for your loss, I assume that John told you everything, right?” He asked her

“I don’t want to sound rude, but you can keep your condolences. If it really is him, then I will be glad that rapist is dead. I will be able to live in peace with my child.” She said

“And with the father,right?”

“He left me when he found out I was pregnant. He was one of those jocks from High School. I think he was just using me for my body, but he treated me so well until he found out I was pregnant.” She did not want to tell him that it was John’s baby, and that the child was conceived when she was being black mailed by Kelsy, John and their friends. She did not want to get them in trouble.

“Damn Jocks,” he replied, “they can never take responsibility when it is handed to them. I am glad I was one jock with common sense though. Come on, I will take you downstairs.” he said

The three of them followed Detective Groat down the stairs, past the holding cells as they walked towards the autopsy room. Only one was occupied, and from what they could see, it was one of their ex-classmates who dropped out of school after he became addicted to heroin.

They walked through the door and they were greeted by the coroner, Dr. Dasho.

“I assume that you three are here to Identify our friend here?” He asked

“Yeah, I want to make sure the bastard really is dead.” Brenda said nonchalantly.

The doctor seem surprised by this. He had never heard anyone call a deceased body a terrible name. But she had his reasons, he reasoned. He may have done something very bad to the girl.

Dr. Dasho walked over to the cooler where bodies where kept before their autopsy’s and before they go to the funeral homes. He opened door #2 and pulled out a long metal drawer. On it was apparently the body of her father, the entire body was covered by a sheet.

“Can I see?” Brenda asked

“Of course, My dear.” he replied. He pulled back the sheet. By the look in Brenda’s eyes, both John and Kelsy knew that the body on the table was indeed her fathers.

“That’s him,” she said, “Do you mind if I ask where he was shot at?

Dr. Dasho pulled the sheet even farther back to expose the chest.

“He was tapped three times in the chest. It was this one,” he said, pointing to a wound close to where the heart would be, “that I assume was the fatal shot. It reminds me of a story from when I was in Vietnam. I had just rescued a small family from the Vietcong when the we were attacked and the father…..”

“Thats enough, Doctor.” Groat said. “I don’t think they need to hear any of your war stories.” They thank the doctor and the three of them left the room and went back upstairs.
