Ophelia's pov
............................

It's a Sunday so we have no classes today. I lay in bed staring at the ceiling. I hope Theo didn't tell anyone about what happened last night. I really don't want anyone to know.

Laying in bed gives me time to think about things I shouldn't. My mind wonders back to last night when Jared had his hand in my hair and all of his weight on my body. I couldn't breath I couldn't move I was terrified. My  door swing open and I snap out of my trance.

Theo, blaise and draco walk in. I sit up propping my self up with my hands Theo flips the light on "time to get out of bed it's 7:00 pm" he says. It's already dark outside I had been in bed all day and not realized it. Theo sits on the edge of my bed blaise is in one of my green chairs while draco is in the other.

I slide my legs over to let them hang off the edge of the bed. I look up at the ceiling and squint my eyes shut my head was throbbing.

" so that's where you two went last night" draco says looking at me and theo. I look back at him with furrowed eyebrows trying to find out what he meant. He reaches up and points to the side of his neck and then at me.

I reach up and put my hand on one side of my neck. My face drops and tears pool up in my eyes. Draco's face goes from a smirk to a worried look. I stand up and take my hand off of my neck to look at it in the mirror. There were 3 purple hickeys leading down to my collar bone that Jared had left.

I put my hand over my mouth and tears roll down my cheeks. I step out of my dorm room closing the door behind me and start to sob.

Draco's pov
........................

She walks out of her room and into the hallway with tears running down her face. I look over at Theo and he's staring at me with a angry look on his face. If I knew it would have upset her that much i wouldn't have said anything.

"Why did you have to mention that draco?"he says his voice laced with anger. "What did you all have a bad time or something?"blaise says trying to joke around.

"You guys just don't get it do you? Last night when she left the party by herself jared pinned her against the wall in the corridor and I caught him trying to rape her!" Theo shouts at us while pacing the floor.

My heart hit the pit of my stomach when the words fell out of his mouth. I have to find her and apologize for what I said. "I'm going to go check on her"I say in a quite voice. Walking out of her dorm and down through the common room. There were a few people siting on the sofa. "Did any of you happen to see which way ophelia went?" I ask and a boy shouted from the end of the sofa. "i think she went towards the astronomy tower".
 
I walk out of the common room and up the spiral staircase to the astronomy tower. Her back is towards me and she is standing on the outside of the hand rail. Her heels are the only thing still left on the tower. She has both arms spread out holding on to the rail.

"What are you doing Ophelia?" I ask in a soft tone she turns her head slowly to look at me over her shoulder. " I don't have anything left for me here draco!"she says through clenched teeth while sobbing." I don't have any family other than my drunken father everyone at this school thinks im a whore and I can't sleep because everytime i close my eyes all i can think about is the way i couldn't move and how powerless I was under jared last night".

"I have nothing to go home to and nothing here to stay for".

One on her arms comes off of the hand rail."no wait stay for me O! Stay for me" that was the only thing i could think of she was about to jump. "Why should I stay for you, you were the one that told everyone we slept together and that is the reason everyone thinks im a whore" she says her voice cracking trying to keep herself from crying.

"I didn't tell anyone that! I lied to you" i shout taking a few steps closer to her.
