Chapter 4 - How Do I Deal?
Nick sat on his bed and cried, not moving. Brian pulled a chair up to nick's bed.
"Nickay, you haven't said a word, want to talk about it?" "Wha....what's there to talk about Bri? She's gone and I wasn't there to save her! It's all my fault!" nick said, sobbing uncontrollably. "It is not your fault!" Brian said firmly.
"I.........I........I........how..............I" nick stuttered, still sobbing. Brian pulled him into a hug as nick slowly cried. "Bri.....I......I.......love her Bri......I love......you Crystal." Brian's eyes welled up as he held his friend.
********
An hour later, Brian suggested nick get some sleep. He agreed and changed into some boxers. 'Crystal's favorite ones' he thought. He picked up a t-shirt that she had wore of his the night before. 'Crystal I miss you' he thought to himself as he climbed into bed. He smelled her sweet raspberry lotion scent through the shirt. He began to cry as he drifted off to sleep.
**Graphic scenes involving rape**
The car abruptly came to a stop as Crystal was thrown around in the trunk. The back opened but she couldn't see since she was blindfolded. She didn't know where she was, and that scared her a lot. A man threw her over his shoulder and carried her to a room where she was chained to a bed. A man slapped her. She heard pants unzipping and she started to cry. 'Please no! Please no!' she thought. A man got on top of her and raped her, smacking her every time she cried out nick's name. After he was finished with her, another pair of pants unzipped. She yelled for them to stop but they kept going, ignoring her cries for help.
"Stop!! Leave me alone!" she yelled. The man smacked her and ripped he dress strap exposing her chest to the men. He leaned to her ear and growled. " what are you crying for? Pretty boy aint here to save you!" the pain continued as 2 more men took their turns violating her, beating her.
"Leave.......me.........alone!" she pleaded unable to breathe. A man smacked her and grabbed her by the hair ripping it out. "You do what I tell you understand? Don't tell me what to do." he yelled.
They left her in the room, crying to herself.
'Please Nick, please help me.' she pleaded to herself. Her sides ached as well as her face. She felt like she had been ripped at the seams and it wasn't a good feeling. She couldn't move, so she laid on the bed afraid to fall asleep. She started to feel darkness and couldn't help but shut her eyes. Darkness surrounded her and she fell asleep.
