The Brave, Bold and Beaten

Chapter Four: Caught

I woke up for school around five-thirty, school didn't start for a few hours but I was oddly excited to see Zack, smiling until Nicole walked into my room looking desperate.

"I need your eyeliner, now!" She demanded with make-up applied to only one eye.

"How about," I began, her expression looking hopeful. "No."

She stared at me with a scowl and stormed out of my room, I smiled in Triumph and walked into my bathroom and showered before applying my own make up. As I walked down stairs my dad was waiting at the bottom.

"Give Nicole her eyeliner back." He growled.

I looked at him and sighed, "I didn't take it."

"Liar, she told me you did." He claimed.

"Did you think maybe she was lying? She just wants it so she can fuck some guy at the party tonight." I retorted.

"She's going to Lisa's house, not the party smartass."

"The party is at Lisa's house." I said and walked outside.

Outside I glanced around to see Zack parked in my driveway. I smiled to myself and walked over and climbed into his car.

"Good Morning Ash." He smiled, "Ready for school?"

"Eh, definitely ready for the weekend to start." I chuckled.

He pulls out of the driveway and sets off for school. They arrived at school a bit early walking in together.

James glanced at me with a smirk, a can of silly string in hand. I inhaled nervously and walked closer to Zack.

"Hey Ass!" He taunted and shoved me against a wall, pressing himself against me sexually. "Ready?"

I squirmed and reached out to claw him before he forced my hands against the wall. I gritted my teeth and spat in his face. He slapped me across the face, "Naughty."

I squeezed my eye closed as he moved to grind against my frail body, but then, it stopped. His hands released mine.

I slowly opened my eyes to see both James and Zack gone. I sighed and grabbed my bag that fell and briskly walked to my class.

A few hours later the intercom spoke,  "Sorry for the Interruption but I would Ashley Myers to report to the main off. Thanks~"

I froze as the class 'ooohed' before leaving the room. I walked hurriedly to the office to see James' face brusied and bloody clutching his stomach.

The assistant principal led me into a conference room where Zack sat with a few minor scratches.

"I would like to know what happened this morning." She explained.

"Well, uh-" I started and trailed off.

"Yes?" She looked at me closely.

"James Rockfoll sexually assaulted me and slapped me." I explained bluntly.

"And why is this?" She questioned.

"May be the same reason he killed my cat, poured vodka on me and bullies me. Because I wouldn't date him." I growled lightly.

She nodded and shifted her gaze to Zack. "How did you know about this?"

"I watched." He answered.

"So, you then assaulted him? Correct?" She beamed.

He just grunted and nodded slightly.

"Well, since this is against the law we must tell the police and you will be arrested." She said calmly and watched two police officers walk in.

Zack looked at me wide eyed as the cuffed him.

Before he left he whispered something to me.

"I did this for you." Then he was dragged away.
