*Brooke's P.O.V.*
By the time I woke up again, it was late night. I looked around and didn't see Jacob. Startled, I tried getting out of the bed, but my feet became entangled with the covers.
"Trey, we shouldnt. I mean, I dont want to... Please, stop."
"Why, babygirl ? You cant tell me you didnt enjoy it."
Screams. There's screaming. I think it's my own, but I'm too out of it to tell. Finally, I feel myself falling...again.
"...ow ?" I heard someone say.
"Is everything okay, Brooke ?"
I looked into the darkness, squinting just to vaguely make out a figure. The eyes peered at me through the darkness.
"Oh, Jacob. It's you, thank God. Why are you on the ground ?"
"I let you have the bed, so I took the floor." he said, ruffling his hair. God, I love when he does that.
"You didn't have to do that..."
"And let you go home to Jamie during your situation ? No. I would never be able to live with myself if she said something to you that sent you over the edge."
"What time is it ?"
"The time I usually wake up for school. Do you feel up to going today ?"
"Only if you stay with me the entire day..."
"It's okay, I will." Jacob reassured. He put his arm around me and kissed me on the cheek. "But first, we need to head over to your house to get your clothes."
We got in the car, and his mom drove to my house. I ran upstairs, took a quick shower and pulled my hair into a messy bun. I ran back downstairs, got in his mom's car and she drove us to school. I walked in, with Jacob still holding me around my waist. My friend, Carrera was at her locker, which was right next to mine. Jacob & I walked over to where she was standing.
"Hey, Carrera." I said, trying to sound as cheerful as possible.
"Oh, hey, slut."
I looked from Jacob, back to Carrera, to the floor, and back to Carrera.
"Pardon ?"
"So you fucked Trey, huh ?"
"What are you talking about ?"
"EVERYONE KNOWS, BROOKE. HE TOLD EVERYONE YESTERDAY WHEN YOU LEFT." Her voice grew quiet. "I thought you were different, Feliciano. But I guess I was wrong. Later."
Carrera called me by my last name, something she only did when she was being serious. Something she hasnt done since we were in the 3rd grade. Had I lost my only friend ? Yes, yes I had. My knees started to buckle. My legs felt like jelly as they wobbled during the walk to Jacob's locker. The only reason why I hadn't fallen yet was because Jacob was still holding me around the waist. I was on the verge of having a mental breakdown. He kept my head on his shoulder, against his warm body. I was probably looking pale as ever. Everything was becoming a blur, not literally, but metaphorically. Suddenly, Trey appeared in the hallway. He walked up to me.
"Hey, babygirl," he said in a hushed tone. "back to your boy-toy, huh ?"
"Don't call me, 'babygirl.' I'm not and never will be, your 'babygirl,' okay ?"
"Whatever you say, babygirl."
And that's when it happened. Everything happened so fast, I couldn't make sense of what was going on. Jacob had pushed Trey into the lockers, and had pinned him down.
"She said for you NOT to call her that, OKAY ?"
"Oooooh, the peace loving fag wants to threaten someone ?" Trey cood.
Jacob pressed Trey even harder against the lockers. A crowd was brewing. Trey pushed Jacob, and that's when it happened. Jacob punched Trey in the face, causing his nose to bleed. I think it's broken; I couldn't tell from where I was standing. And that's when the principal came. He broke up the crowd and ushered the three of us into his office.
"Mr. Perez, Mr. Young, Ms. Feliciano... what's going on ?"
Jacob shot Trey a dirty look. "Go ahead, Trey. Tell him what''s going on. Tell him how much you've hurt Brooke. Tell him how you've taken advantage of her."
Trey sat quiet.
"I mean, the player doesnt want to get in trouble and lose at his own game, now does he ?" Jacob shouted angrily.
The principal interjected. "What exactly did you do, Trey ?"
"Brooke." Trey replied, with a smirk.
"I-I... I'm sorry. But did you just say that you did Brooke ? As in, the colloquial term for having sexual intercourse ?"
"Yuuuuuuuuuup. She wanted it." Trey said.
"MR. DONALD, BROOKE DIDN'T WANT IT ! HE RAPED HER ! IT WAS AGAINST HER WILL !"
I couldn't stay focused with everything that was going on.
"Well, I have no choice but to call the police and have you expelled, Trey. But, that's only if Brooke wants that to happen."
All eyes were on me... I had to make a decision.
"N-No... No. I dont want to press charges."
"You dont want him arrested, Brooke ?" the principal asked me.
"No. I dont want him arrested... but I want him expelled."
"So it shall be done. And as for you, Jacob. Even though you were defending your girlfriend, you know the school has a strict no fighting policy. Therefore, you will be issued a 4-day-suspension."
Jacob leaned over and whispered to me, "At least I'll get to stay home with you."
I wanted to smile, but I couldn't. I couldnt make sense of what I was feeling at the moment.
We walked out of the principal's office and Jacob's mom came to pick us both up. When we got back to Jacob's house, we went up to his room and layed on his bed to watch tv. I wasnt really in the mood for anything to watch. And even though Jacob handed me the remote and told me to choose, I put it on his favorite show, Family Guy, because I knew I was going to go to sleep regardless. And the last thing I remember before falling asleep, was Jacob holding me around the waist, caressing my hair, and kissing my forehead for a looooong time. And with that, I slowly drifted off to sleep...
