The New Beginning

Chapter 14-What Was I Going To Do (Jamie's POV)

"I want to Wrap you up want to kiss your lips I-"My phone buzzed as I reached for it interrupting my favorite song.

"Okay we got to talk like now!"I heard Clair yell through the phone and I heard panic in her voice.

"Okay, be at my house in like 20 minutes."I said still dazed in sleep.I looked a the clock it was 8:00 in the morning on a Saturday after a late party.She had officially gone nuts.

"Okay but I am like freaking out."

"WHy is that exactly?" I mumbled trying to wake myself up.

"I kissed a guy ,but I don't know who it is..."SHe said yelling into the phone.

"what do you mean you don't know who it is?"

"I mean I remember kissing a guy I just don't know who..." She said nervously.

"Well We can deal with who it is later I want to sleep!" I said moaning.

"This is important! I will be at you house in a sec!"

"Please just let me sleep!" I whined as I heard a click. Jeesh why did she have to wake up so early? I crawled out of bed and stalked into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and laughed. I looked like crap! My hair was standing up in all directions. My make up smeared across my cheeks.I ran a brush through my hair and put it in a bun. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I looked some what human. I troudged into my room and put on a pair of sweats and a tank. NO need in looking spectacular right now. Just I was getting ready to sit and watch tv. I heard my name be yelled.

"Jamie!" Clair yelled. Soon I saw her run into the living room.

"What could possibly be so urgent that you had to wake me up on a Saturday morning at 8-"I started.

"I think I got raped."she interupted looking me straight in the eye. Fear was plastered on her face.

"What do you mean you think?"I asked confused.

"I was hanging out with this one guy after the party got busted. I don't know his name. Last thing I remember was cming back from the bathroom and then feeling dizzy." She said tears swelling in her eyes. I searched to see if it was a joke ,but there was no sign of laughter.

"But, you were fine when I called you." I said remembering the phone call as the party got busted.

"I remember that." She said as tears dripped down her face. "I was hanging out with some guy and he kept hitting on me. I think he rapped me. I know it sounds dramatic, but I don't know how, I know I'm not a virgin."She continued.

I sat there stunned at the information that had just been told to me. Was this possible? Who would do this? A million names popped in my mind. "Did you set your drink down at any point?" I asked remembering the talk I had awhile ago with my brother.

"Umm... I set it down when I went to the bathroom..." She said concentrating hard.

"Do you remember anything after that?" I asked. My brother had told me about a drug some guys pour in girls drinks. They are out of it. Guys can do whatever they want with you then. They call it the 'Date RApe" pill. Mostly because that is what it is used for. That's why my brother always said to never put your drink down at a party.

"Umm, kind of not really..."She said sobbing in my shoulder.I relayed my theory to her and she began to sob harder. I looked at her sad face. Tears streamed down her face slowly. I hugged her tight. I wasn't sure what to do next.

"Do you have any idea on who it could be?"I asked in between her crys.

"No..."She said looking me in the eye.

"You need to tell someone."I said.

"No! A girl from the school I used to go to got raped. She told and everyone told her it as her fault. They said she was asking for it. I don't want that to happen to me."She said wailing loudly.

"You have to tell someone! You can't let him get away with this." I said biting my lip. What was I suppose to do?

"No. Please just keep this between us."She pleaded.

"If you don't tell anyone I will!!"I yelled. I couldn't let some random creep do this to her.

"Jamie, no. This is my problem. Just let it go." she said sternly wiping away her tears. I hated seeing my best friend like this.

"Clair..."

"NO, just keep quiet got it?" She demanded.

"But.."

"NO buts promise?"

"Promise.." I said after a few minutes of thought. What was I going to do?....
