I woke up the next morning to my seven AM alarm and realized everything that happened last night. Luke. The sex. I lost my...my virginity to someone I barely knew. Luke's arms were wrapped around me as he slept. I smiled and kissed his chest as he slowly lost grip of me. I had cheer practice for tomorrow's competition in less than two hours. I saw Luke's shower and decided to shower. I was showering when I heard a knock. "Emily?" Luke yawned knocking. "Hey sorry!" he laughed. "It's just a shower." He laughed. I finished showering as he closed the door after using the bathroom door. I didn't pack clothes so I had to slip into last nights until I got back to my room. My room. Crap. Breigh was m roommate. I took the elevator praying to God she was still asleep. I got to our floor and saw the door was locked. I unlocked it and saw she was still sleeping and took a big sigh of relief. I quickly grabbed a change of clothes and rehashed my hair to make it like I was there showering. What could I say where I was all night? Do I even say I was? I thought about what to do when I plugged my phone in to charge. "Crap." I said noticing the missed calls from Breigh and Jake and Amanda and my mom. Ever since my sister died my mom has kept a tight leash on me. I got dressed and saw Breigh was slowly waking up. "Hey!" She said yawning. "Um...hey!" I faked smile back. "And where were you all night Cinderella?" She laughed raising up. "I uhh..." Breigh is my best friend I could trust her. "Can you keep a secret?" "Yeah sure." She smiled. "I was with Luke last night!" She gasped "What happened?! Details!" "We just watched some movies and I fell asleep. You cannot tell a soul, Breigh!" "My lips are sealed!" I smiled big. "Oh my God, you kissed him!" We both squealed to each other. "Shh!" I said trying to calm her down. "Is he a good kisser?!" "Great!" I laughed.

Later that night

I met Luke in our spot. "Yanno we keep meeting like this I'm gonna get the impression we're a couple!" I laughed. "Maybe I want us to be!" He laughed. I shrugged. I really haven't had a relationship since well." I stopped my last relationship was with Ryan, who I pushed away after Brooke died. "Since when?" He looked me as I looked down at Brooke's necklace and flashed back to when I found Brooke's lifeless body two years ago when I was a sophomore and Brooke was a senior.

Two Years Ago

"Hey Brooke! Thanks for having me walk! I'm gonna be so late for cheerleading now and Breigh is gonna kill me!" I shouted walking into the door. "Brooke?" I shouted. The front room was empty but it looked as if someone was fighting in it. Broken glass and pictures. And than I saw something that made me stop breathing for a second. A small red spot on the carpet. I ran to the kitchen and grabbed a knife slowly pulling out my cell phone. "Jake?" I called to my brother. "Mom!" I said quickly rushing upstairs grabbing my cell phone. I opened Brooke's door and dropped my phone quickly as my heart fell to my stomach.

Present Day
"Earth to Emily!" I heard Luke say as I came back to reality. "So-so-sorry." I finally got out. "Something wrong?" "I think I'm gonna be sick!" I rushed to the trash can and threw up.

"Her ex boyfriend Jackson, was really abusive. And my parents were divorced so we didn't exactly have a dad to protect us." "What..happened?" He asked as we walked across the boardwalk. "He uh broke into our house when Brooke had the school day off, cause seniors get two weeks early." "Right." He nodded. "He punched her over a hundred times in the chest, than stabbed her numerous times." I wiped some tears away. "And the guy who did it?" "He's in prison but I found her, I found her body laying there. Just lifeless." Flashbacks arose of the police and everyone crying and screaming as I told Luke the story. "That's so wrong. I am so sorry Emily." "I went through such a deep, dark state. I got a drinking problem and spent my summer in rehab. I struggled with self harm and lots of other things." I sighed. He said nothing. Instead he turned around and hugged me pulling me close to him. "You saved me." I looked in his eyes. "I love you, Emily." I smiled and kissed him. "I love you, too." "We should probably getcha back before curfew." He smiled as I locked my hand into his.

We were walking back into the hotel when all of a sudden dozens of photographers and reported swarmed us. "Luke is this the girl from the video?!" "Video?!" I quickly asked. "Luke why did you put a sex video out on the internet. "What are you taking about?!" One reporter pulled out a phone and had a video so horrific I was going to be sick again. Someone filmed me and Luke having sex and forwarded it.
