A Disaster Waiting To Happen

Chapter 7

I could say I was use to being rapped, but this was different. When I was getting raped before, I was still in love with jack. And I didn't think of it as being rapped. But now that I don't love jack it's different. And the sad thing is that the guy I actually loved was letting it happen. Jonathan was just standing there. In the corner watching. He didn't look happy with what was happening but he wasn't trying to stop it. When jack stopped he left me crying in the bathroom alone. Jonathan came over to me after jack left.

"I'm so sorry, I had to do what he said. He made me bring you back to school. I didn't know he would try and hurt you. I'm so sorry." He tried to put a comforting hand on my shoulder. I pushed it away. "Kris, I didn't know he was going to hurt you."

"Well you didn't try and stop him didn't you?" I yelled at him. "I thought you liked me. Why would you do this to me?" He looked at me with guilt and sadness in his eyes.

"I'm sorry. I had to! You don't understand how bad he is. How rude he is." He started to cry. He feel on the ground and began to ball. "He hurts me. He tells me he's going to.." he couldn't even finish the sentence. "He's going to kill my sister. He is her baby daddy. Can you believe it? He got her pregnant! And he has her hanging by his finger. He threatens to kill her and my nephew." He broke into more tears. I didn't know how bad jack was. I had no idea. I thought it was just me he hurt. He was hurting everyone.

"He hurt me. Did you know that? And now I'm having his baby and nobody cares about how I feel. The people I thought did care just stab me in the back," I wasn't trying to direct it right to Jonathan but I did.

"You think I don't feel bad about what just happened? I feel terrible because I'm in love with you and he just rapped you for fucks sake and I couldn't sweep you into my arms and save you Kristina!" I couldn't say anything. He shook his head and came and knelt next to me. "Did you hear me? I love you and you aren't going to say anything?"

"If you loved me you would have stopped him." He looked at me and I got up. I walked out of the bathroom. I found Lesley in the halls and told her about what had just happened.

"We need to tell the office or somebody. Someone has to do something about this," she started walking towards the office.

"Les, they aren't going to believe you. They all love him and think he is the perfect guy in our school. Can I just use your phone to call my mom please?" I asked.

She handed me her phone and I dialed in the number I remember since the age of 3. "Hello?" My mom sounded the same, but tired.

"Mom? I need help." I said with a eye roll. I didn't need help. I could have done fine and just kept it al inside. But even after how rude my parents were after they found out I was pregnant. I still loved them and they still loved me, probably.

"Baby girl? Is that really you?" She said,her voice lightening.

"Yes mom, I was rapped and I need to be picked up from school. I'm really hurt mom and I miss you and dad," I started to cry. "And I'm sorry for leaving and pushing your help away. I want it now. I really need it now." Before I even finished mumbling about how much I loved her I heard her car door slam shut.

"I'm on my way baby girl, I'm on my way." She then hung up and 15 minutes later pulled into the school circle. She jumped out of the car and ran to me. I ran into her arms and we hugged for 2 minutes.

"You look so beautiful! Baby girl, what happened?" she said with a tear in her eye.

"It was jack. He hurt me momma. He really hurt me and the guy I love..." I said

"Love?" She said.

"Yes I love him. His name is Jonathan. He watched me being rapped.  Jack is his brother and he apparently threatens to kill Jonathan's sister so Jon does whatever jack asks him to do. He didn't stop jack momma. He hurt me too. He could have saved me but he didn't," I sat down on a bench.

"My poor baby. I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. I'm going to talk to the parents of this Jonathan kid and we will fix all this drama. And jack, I'm going to get him arrested for harassment. Nobody should be able to touch you without you wanting them too. Let's go home." We hopped in the car and pulled into our driveway. I missed our little 2 story house with 3 bedrooms. It's white trim, tan paint and grey doors. I loved this house from the first day we bought it 5 years ago. I walked inside to be greeted by a very friendly face. Box jumped up onto my body and licked my face as I bent down.

"Hey baby boy, momma missed you soooo much." I got box, my dog, when I was 8 years old. He's old but still acts like a puppy.

"Is she here?" I heard my dad holler from his office as he ran and almost slipped into the living room. "Baby?" He started crying. "I can't believe you are home." He pulled me into his tight man hug and squeezed.

"Dad, im still pregnant," I said with a chuckle.

"I'm sorry baby. I missed you so so much. I'm glad you came home to us. We are going to help you through every step." He hugged me again but not as hard and we all walked and sat on the couch. "We need you to tell us everything, and I mean everything." So I started from the beginning.

"It all started when Jonathan found me on the side of wetsworth road."
