Tw:mention of abuse and rape
Noah's pov
I wake up with a killing headache after drinking a lot last night,it takes me a minute to convince myself to get out of bed but I hear jacquie throwing up so I rush to make sure she's okay but she must not of woken richelle up because jacquie was in the bathroom on her ownI kneel behind her and hold her hair up "why did we drink so much?!"jacquie asks "I don't know I'll grab you some water and painkillers"i say as I stand up "can you get me a coffee instead"jacquie asks and i nod before walking downstairs and i start making me and jacquie a coffee each, i hear richelle walk downstairs "coffee?"i ask "yes please"richelle says and i start making her a coffee as well
All of our phones ping but Amanda's phone pings twice and she picks it up and puts it straight back down "miss Kate wishes us all a happy new year"Giselle says not amused by miss Kate's message "who else messaged you?"i ask looking at Amanda and i notice her picking her skin "do I need to go talk to him again?"jacquie asks "who?who do you need to talk to?"Giselle asks
"Lucien"Amanda says and jacquie walks upstairs presumably getting changed and she walks down in a pair of leggings and a tank top "I'm going to kill him"jacquie says and emily stops her "who are you going to kill?"emily asks "Lucien"jacquie says and emily simply moves out of jacquie's way "we have a bat in the coat closet!"emily says as she walks upstairs and jacquie grabs the bat "I'll join you!"i say putting down my coffee "come on then"jacquie says but amanda storms out and we all start following her but we all freeze when we see Lucien standing outside walking across the street
Jacquie storms to him and immediately starts arguing with lucien before punching him but he reaches for his pocket and pulls out a knife and amanda rushes over as he goes to stab jacquie but amanda manages to grab his wrist not realising that he had sliced her stomach
I grab the bat from jacquie and I swing at bat full force to luciens back and repeatedly hit him but just as I was about to him in his head james pulls me away "hey hey stop I get your angry but killing him would mean you wouldn't get to see us"james says and we all look at amanda who's covered in her own blood
We jump into James's car and rush to the hospital although amanda doesn't seem to be in pain but the cut is extremely deep, we get to the hospital and we immediately get put in a room and we are all sat watching amanda get stitched up "don't look at me like that noah"amanda says "like what?"I ask "the same look you gave me the last few times I've been here"amanda says "what?"Giselle asks "nothing"amanda says now looking as if she regrets saying anything
I know exactly what she's talking about "when were you last here?"Giselle asks "doesn't matter"amanda says as she stands up "babe when?"Giselle asks "I said it doesn't matter!"amanda snaps "noah?"Giselle says and my eyes flicker between Giselle and amanda who are both standing staring at me with their arms crossed looking annoyed I don't want to upset Giselle she's my friend but I don't want to upset amanda she's like my sister! I start to feel anxious
After a few minutes I feel my heart racing and like I can't breathe and everything starts to slow down "Guys!stop it! You two can continue arguing all you fucking like BUT DONT GO AND PUT NOAH IN A POSITION WHERE HE FEELS LIKE HE HAS TO PICK A SIDE!"richelle screams at the both of them
"Come on we're leaving"richelle says crouching down as she gently rubs my knee,i nod and we wait in the car for the others "you don't have to pick a side amanda and Giselle will work it out"richelle says holding my hand and i nod,everyone eventually gets in the car,richelle rolls her eyes when amanda slams the car door
Giselle and amanda are sat on opposite sides of Brooklyn while james is driving and amanda starts playing with Brooklyn while Giselle stares at the window but I look at the window Giselle is looking at and I realise she's staring at Amanda's reflection in the window,we go to Emily's and we are all in the kitchen and Giselle opens a bag of popcorn and i remember amanda and Giselle's thing is that Giselle will throw something and amanda will try to catch the piece of food with her mouth
Giselle throws a piece of popcorn over her shoulder but turns around when she hears it it the kitchen island and her face drops when she sees amanda sat there just looking extremely pissed off with Giselle "stop being silly"amanda hisses through her teeth,we all look at amanda shocked not because she was being rude but because of the fact that she said it to Giselle
If Amanda had a soft spot it is or I guess I should was for Giselle "what she pissed me off?!"amanda says before looking at her phone "i just wanted to know why you've been in the hospital"Giselle says softly "it's none of your fucking business"amanda says "yes it is"Giselle says softly
"I said it isn't your business!"amanda says raising her voice "yes it is"Giselle says clearly upset but I notice Amanda's grip tighten around her glass of water, I walk past and take the glass with a simply "thank you!" As I take the glass before she throws it or it smashes with how tight amanda was holding it
"okay I've had enough of this noah is shaking because of how scared he is, yes we get it you don't want Giselle to know why you were in the hospital because you don't want to scare her but she should know about it because she loves you! And Giselle I get it you want to know because she's your girlfriend but she clearly doesn't want to tell you what happened because it's fucking traumatic for her BUT OMG FUCKING SORT IT OUT NOW"richelle shouts
Nobody's pov
Both Giselle and amanda look at each other one had tears in her eyes and one was glaring with anger in her eyes,everyone stands around the two girls waiting for something to unfold but the others were shocked when amanda didn't have an outburst and simply just leftIt's one thing for amanda to just leave she's probably one of the most loyal people to her friend but to leave Giselle that's a whole other thing,noah doesn't hesitate to follow Amanda out of the house,noah spends a while trying to catch up to amanda who was practicing jogging back to her house but struggling to go any faster because of his prosthetic leg
When Amanda got to her house with noah somewhat close behind her,amanda start rummaging through her house frantically trying to find something until she gets to her desk and she pulls out a thick hospital file,noah looks at the brown haired girl with a smile "what?"amanda asks "I knew you weren't going to break up with her"noah says "I'm pissed at her but I guess she should know"amanda says "okay but can we take your car I can't keep up with you!"noah says and they jump into Amanda's car
They get back to Emily's house and amanda puts the thick hospital file on the kitchen island which let out a thud "what's that?"Giselle asks "everytime I've been in the hospital since the day I was born"amanda says as she pushes it towards the girl who owns her heart,GISELLE begins to read along with everyone else almost everytime amanda had been admitted into hospital was by her dad except from the last four times one of those times being today
"He raped you?"Giselle asks with tears streaming down her face "he as in lucien?"Giselle adds "yeah funny isn't it? You know how he used to tell me he loved me well he must of REALLY loved me"amanda says in a joking tone despite tears rolling down her face
When no one said anything amanda really started to cry as she walked to Giselle, Giselle didn't hesitate to pull her into a hug,noah wiped a few tears away along with everyone else but jacquie,jacquie was too angry to cry "I'm going to sort this out"jacquie says before grabbing her phone and walking off and they all follow her to elite studios "you've come up with a plan haven't you?"amanda asks
"Yep"jacquie says as she storms through the whole building looking for Lucien because although noah hurt lucien he wouldn't go to the police because then he would have to admit what he did,the group walk into the main studio where Lucien was standing with his dancers including tess "amanda?"tess asks "all of you go home!"jacquie says and they all leave
"What are you doing here?"Lucien asks "can't you guess? I'm here ruin your reputation not only as a person but as a studio head,see in exactly five seconds a video will be uploaded to all of my social media platforms including the one with over 1,000 followers where you admit to raping one of your dancers after grooming her"jacquie says before turning to amanda "don't worry your name won't be mentioned"jacquie says "what video?"Lucien asks extremely concerned
"Don't you remember? You bragged to your friend right here about how you raped amanda and I got one of your dancers to send me that video and you go into a lot detail about it"jacquie says and with that the whole groups phones ping that jacquie has uploaded a video
