Being A Teen Isn't Living A Dream

Graduation Party

Month Time Skip

Trigger Warning
Rape

          It was the night of the graduation party at some girls house. Everyone that was graduating was invited, including Ivy & Isla. "What should we wear Izzy?" Ivy questioned. They were hanging out at Ivy's house so they could get ready together and take the car. Isla got her license not too long ago, so she could drive them. But Ivy also had her licence, so she would drive back since she doesn't normally drink & she knew Isla would. "How about we match. We both have that yellow dress, with the black top that goes under it" Izzy said.
(Me & Ivy actually have that. At least I did have it. I lost it and Idk if she still has hers lmao.) "Yeah, that's a great idea" Ivy said. They took a shower together really quick,  (stfu, they're basically sisters) & got dressed, then did their hair and makeup. "Finally, done. Are you Ivy?" Iz said. Ivy always took longer getting ready since she knew how to dress & do makeup properly. (She actually does, and I don't. Smh) "Yeah, I'm done I guess" Ivy replied, and still took about 15 more minutes to finish.

          Gavin was also gonna go as Isla's plus one. Turns out, Ace was gonna go with Ivy. They seem to have a little thing going on. "Okay, I'm gonna drive there" Isla said, "and Gavin and Ace will meet us there. You have to drive back since I'm obviously gonna drink." Iz finished. Ivy just nodded her head. They arrived at the party before Ace & Gavin did. They could hear the music from outside. "Holy shit, it's loud" Ivy yelled to Izzy while walking in. Isla headed straight for the drinks. She was on her 3rd when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She thought it was Gavin, so she turned with a big smile. But it wasn't Gavin. It was Gabe. Her ex. She froze with fear as he grabbed her and took her upstairs. He took her to a small room and locked the door.

            "Long time, no see baby" Gabe said while having a tight grip on Isla."Gabe. Stop. Please." She begged as he began to take off his pants. "GABE, STOP. PLEASE. I DONT WANT THIS." She yelled. "Stop talking. You're just drunk. You know you want it." Gabe replied putting his hand over her mouth. "STOP" she mumbled pulling away. Gabe was trying to pull her boxers down when Isla had a thought. She managed to turn around, and kicked him in his balls. He let go and fell to the ground in pain. Isla pulled up her boxers and ran out the door, barely escaping him trying to grab her.

          Isla ran down the stairs with tears running down her face. She pushed everyone out of the way and ran out the door. Gavin and Ace had got there a few minutes prior and was looking for Isla. He walked over to someone knew and asked, "Hey, have you seen Isla? I've been looking for her." The guy replied, "Yeah. Went upstairs with some guy for a few minutes & came down the stairs running and ran out the door. I think the guy was Gabe. I don't know if you know him though." "FUCK" Gavin yelled running to Ace & Ivy. "GUYS. GABE IS HERE AND HE TRIED TO DO SOMETHING TO ISLA! HE'S UPSTAIRS, ACE GO GET HIM, AND IVY CALL MANCES!" Gavin yelled panicking. He ran out the door.

          Isla was running in her dress, while it was pouring outside. She hadn't seen Gabe in 2 years, and when she finally saw him, he pulled that shit again. Isla couldn't breathe. She was having another panic attack. She made it to the other side of a road, but had no idea where she was. She just needed to get away. She fell to the ground trying to catch her breathe, but it was no use. She was crying to hard. Since, it was raining, Gavin followed her footprints in the mud. He saw someone across the road and ran over there. He saw Isla having a panic attack. One even worse than the time she passed out from it. Gavin ran over and grabbed Isla in his arms, pulling her as close as he could. "Follow my breathing Isla. Follow my breathing. Breath in. 1. 2. 3. Okay great breathe out. 1. 2. 3." He held her until her breathing started to become more normal.

          "Gavin. It was. It- it was Ga-" before Isla could finish Gavin cut her off. "I know. He's taken care of okay. He won't hurt you ever again. He won't hurt anyone ever again. I'm here, and I'll always be here. I will never hurt you okay." He said now crying. "Why are you crying?" Isla asked him. "It's just that I should've been there to protect you. And he got to you. He hurt you again. This time, I could've stopped it. I- I should've protected you. I'm sorry." Gavin said crying even harder. "Gavin, it's not your fault. You did protect me. I love you."
