TW: RAPE, BODY SHAMING !!!!!

Briana's POV—————————————————

I got out of the shower and straightened my hair then curled it to make it wavy. I put on my regular makeup and went to my closet. My parents still haven't talked to me but oh well. I threw on light purple cropped v neck tank, black jean shorts, and my white slip on vans.

I brushed out my hair, put lotion and deodorant on, put perfume on, grabbed a charger and my wallet and headed out my room after shutting everything off.

" I'm going over to the sturniolos. Can i spend the night?" I asked once i got to the bottom of the stairs.

" Briana we're sorry for earlier. We just want you to ask more and let us know your plans so we're not worrying about you when you don't come home" My mom said with my dad nodding behind her.

" It's okay and i'm sorry too guys i love you" I said hugging my mom and dad.

" Yes you can spend the night but we want you back home tomorrow by 1 because we're all going to go shopping as a family" My dad said hugging me once again.

" Ok bye guys love you" I said making my way to the front door and unlocking it.

" Love you drive safe" My mom said behind me.

I got in my car and let out a breath. One thing about me and my parents is we always make up but we'll be fighting again in a couple days which sucks but i'm used to it by now.

I made my way over to the sturniolos and went right in. I took my shoes off by the door and walked upstairs to kitchen.

" Hi bri" Marylou said giving me a hug once she saw me walk into the kitchen.

" Hi marylou" I said laughing. I saw nick and matt sitting at the island and chris by the stove which scared me.

" Were you here earlier" Marylou asked walking back over to chris.

" Yeah but i had to go home to talk to my parents" I said grabbing a water from their fridge.

" Hello niccolas and matthew" I said hugging them and taking a seat next to nick.

" Hey bri" They both said in unison. We all started laughing.

" Guys look at these cookies" Chris said setting the cookie tray down on the island. I'm guessing marylou taught him how to make cookies.

" They look great chris" I said while laughing at his excitement.

" Bri don't lie. Those look like ass" Nick said laughing and taking a photo of chris with his cookies. Marylou had left the kitchen by now so it was just me and the triplets.

" Nick shut the fuck up. You're literally my sack" Chris said shoving nick. I can't with these kids bro.

" Ok guys can we got to one of your rooms so i can explain last night please" I said getting up.

They all nodded and led me to nicks room and we all sat on his bed. Nick and matt were at the bottom and me and chris were at the top once again touching thighs.

" Ok so first of all sorry-" I said but got cut off my by matt.

" Bri don't apologize. You know you can come here anytime" Matt said giving me a look of reassurance. I smiled back at him as a thank you.

" I came over because i got into a fight with my parents which is nothing new but they were telling me that i'm never around and make no time for them and that i'm too close to you guys and at one point asked me if i was having sex with one of you. I haven't told you guys this but when i was six my moms brother raped me and they still don't believe me and they said that i've been lying about them being bad parents and that i've caught both of them cheating multiple times which i have and they were like when are you going to stop lying about your uncle raping you and they said that the way i dress makes me look easy and like i'm asking for it and i just didn't know where else to go and i just can't with them anymore" I chocked out now fully crying and trying to hide my face in my hands.

Chris immediately brought me into a hug and i felt so much comfort. My head was buried into his chest sobbing and matt and nick placed their hands on each of my knees as a way of reassurance.

" Bri i am so fucking sorry they said that to you. We believe you and you don't make yourself look easy at all" Matt said shaking my knee a bit.

" Bri i promise you that you're not easy and we know you aren't lying about any of that" Nick said doing the same thing as matt, shaking my knee a little bit.

" Bri you don't deserve that at all. You're the sweetest girl i know and i know for a fact you would never lie about any of that. We're here through it all and you can come over anytime" Chris said pulling me closer and running a hand through my hair.

" Thank you guys so much. I have no clue what i would do without you guys. I fucking love you" I said sitting up and smiling but still crying and pulling them into a group hug.

I truly have no idea what i would do without these boys. They've been my support system since 6th grade. They've always supported me through every fight with a friend, boyfriend, situation ship, and parents. I would be so fucking lost without them.

We all just sat in nicks room and talked a bit about la and our futures. Matt ended up leaving to go to bed and i could tell nick was tired so me and chris headed to his room since we're both night owls.

We got to chris's room and we both were not tired at all which is not surprising at all. We both sat sitting up at the top of his bed touching thighs once again.

" Chris you know that you're probably my biggest comfort person" I said looking over at him smiling. It's true he is.

" You're mine too bri" He said returning the smile.

We just sat there taking in each other. I don't think i'll ever get tired of looking into his eyes. His icu blue eyes contradict my warm honey brown eyes. He's such a good looking kid. His mom definitely gets a thumbs up from me.

We eventually broke out of our gaze and just layed down for a bit watching tv. I was cuddled up into his chest since the rough incident earlier made me a clingy bitch. No shame though because i was so comfortable. I eventually started to fall asleep and chris thought i was asleep but i could still hear him.

" Goodnight bri. I hope you know you don't deserve any of that. You're perfect" Chris said whispering and getting comfy.

All i remembered is being cuddled up with chris and falling asleep with the biggest smile on my face.
