Saving Her Innocence

27

Bettys POV
I was in the chair as Charles's partner Glenn shouted in my face "god dammit just tell us who did it!"

I said "I've told you I can't remember! I was drugged!"

He groaned as he said "god you're an idiot."

I frowned and Charles hit his head "yelling at my little sister won't get us anywhere and for sure screaming at her won't do shit!"

I sniffled and rubbed my arms as Charles sat down next to me.

"Just...calm down...okay? But are you sure you can't remember anything?"

I gulped and said "all I remember is the bunny mask...I mean...he wore all black clothing...he kinda had hands like Jughead...but they didn't feel old like they felt young...they were kinda smooth but still bulky..."

He said "could be someone in your age range or ours."

I said "definitely not like yours. But yeah like Jugheads..."

Suddenly his partner Glen said "there! It was her boyfriend!"

I began crying and Charles helped me up and out of the room.

We sat alone as he said "come on Betty, try and remember..."

I said "I'm sorry but I can't..."

He licked his bottom lip saying "alright...we have one more thing."

I nodded and he suddenly came back with a pendulum.

We turned it on as he told me "just relax and try to remember that day okay?"

I nodded and closed my eyes as I heard the ticking of the pendulum. I took slow breaths as my mind went blank taking me back to that awful day. It was as if I was realizing the moment, my vision was cloudy as I tried making out the figure my cries were soft as I felt the awful sensation between my legs as it kept burning. I cried as suddenly his mask began slowly coming off and saw small bits of dark blonde hair shine in the moonlight I felt warmth fill me as I cried more and suddenly Charles pulled me back into reality.

He held my shoulders as I cried and he said "it's okay...you're not there."

I cried holding my face as he said "Betty it's okay...what did you see?"

I sniffled and said "blonde hair...dirty blonde hair from his mask...he was definitely white...that's it."

I frowned and said "I'm sorry..."

He shook his head "you did good..."

He hugged me and I cried holding him as he rubbed my back. I sniffled as he tried to assure me I was okay. When I got home I was shaking as I saw my mom and dad. I cried and my mom came over and hugged me.

I sobbed and said "I'm scared..."

She frowned and hugged me and said "your college letters came sweetheart..."
