That One Night

Chapter 5

"It was all my fault. I caused him to lash out at me like that. If anything I deserved it." She has no emotion in her tone as she stares down to her feet.

This can't be Ali's fault. Did she even see how drunk that Jake actually was?

" Ali, this isn't your fault. He was drunk, and he clearly wasn't thinking about what the hell he was going on about at that time. So don't blame yourself." I explain to her.

She's a good person. She wouldn't do anything terrible to make Jake act like that.

"No Soph. This is all my fault. I did a terrible thing to him. I did deserve that." She's still emotionless but she's now looking up at me.

"I don't know if you want to tell me, it's okay if you don't want to but what happened to make him so angry?" I ask her but I don't really expect her to tell me, to just cry instead.

"I'll tell you but you can't tell anyone, and I mean anyone."

I would never tell secrets from my best friend to anyone else. Not even family. I promise to her and I'm getting ready for what she's about to tell me.

"Okay. So you know how a while ago I went out to a huge party by myself because Jake was working, well when I was there I got really drunk and people decided to play spin the bottle and I thought that it would be fun so I joined in. A really cute and nice guy spun and it landed on me. He leant over and it was nice. And to be honest it was better than how Jake's lips taste. So after we finished the game he took me into a spare room and locked the door. He began to approach me and that's when it all happened." She pauses for a bit and I can see the tears.

Remembering all of this must be hell for her. I want her to continue but if its too hard than I can wait until she's ready to tell me.

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to" is all I say.

"No it's fine. You deserve to know." Is all she says.

"Okay" is my reply for that.

"I'll continue then. Well I didn't move when he approached me so he was able to wrap his hands around my waist and kiss me a lot more. I couldn't stop myself because it was too good to pull away from. He continued until he began to take of mine and his shirt off. I still didn't feel bad so I continued. I watched as he began to pull down my shorts and undies and he unbuttoned his jeans and pulled down his boxers as well as his jeans. He had a foil packet and I knew exactly what it was. I actually wanted him to do it so I layed on the bed. So yeah I don't really want to tell you every detail but you get the picture." She finally finishes and her cheeks are stained from tears.
