A Pretty Little Love

Chapter 16: Invitation

PLEASE DON'T READ IF YOU ARE NOT OKAY WITH READING ABOUT SEXUAL ABUSE.

Alison's POV

When I finally awoke from my sleep, I felt a weight on my chest. A couple seconds later, I realized Emily was still laying on me. I sat in contentment, realizing that I actually had the love of my life. Here and there i'd tell her I really appreciate her and I need to more often. Emily is one of the people in my life that really care about me. My dad couldn't have gave two craps about my brother and I. When I was born, he left all of a sudden because "he couldn't take care of another kid" with my mother. For my mom, she's been there for me but when I came out to her, she acted like I didn't even exist. She pays no attention to me anymore and it's affecting me. I never tell anyone that I felt this way because i feel like no one would even care.
"Alison!", I heard, but I payed no mind. "Alison!". The voice was louder this time and then I realized it was Emily.
"Yes?"
"Are you okay, you spaced out on me. I was calling you for like a minute."
"Yeah, i'm fine."
"You sure?"
"Yes Emily." I said a little annoyed. I didn't realize my tone until I saw Em get up and leave the room. Now I have to go apologize and tell her the truth.

Emily's POV

'Wow, that was a little rude', I thought as I walked down the stairs to go to the living room. After about 2 minutes, Alison began walking down the stairs. I nonchalantly rolled my eyes. She sat next to me and looked at me like a lost puppy. We made eye contact and she began to speak.
"Listen Em, i'm so sorry about what just happened. I was just thinking really hard about something that i need to get off of my chest."
"Alison, you can talk to me about anything love, don't ever think you can't."
"Okay," she took a deep breath and continued, "Ever since I came out to my mom, she's been acting really weird. Like she doesn't see me. It makes me upset to be around her, that's why i'm never home. When I am home, she is gone." She started to cry and I wrapped her in my embrace and whispered sweet nothings into her ear. She was breathing really hard, so I began to get worried. Her tears would not stop and I panicked.
"Hey, hey. Ali, calm down please baby. Deep breath in, deep breath out. Follow me."
I did this a few times with her and it worked eventually. When her episode was over, we just lied down on the couch and cuddled. She didn't seem like she wanted to let go of me, so I just enjoyed her embrace. We fell asleep together like that for about an hour and Alison's phone started to ring. She grabbed it off of the coffee table and answered it.
"Heyyy Ali, party at my cabin tonight. 9 to whenever the thing endsss. See you there. Oh and bring your girlfriend, she's hot." I saw her her roll her eyes at the comment and laughed. The call ended and she began to tell me about the party. I agreed to go because why not.

Alison's POV

We finally arrived at the cabin and it was swarmed with people from school. I spotted a couple of my friends and Emily's. We said hello and offered to get drinks.
"Heck yesssss, drinks are where it's at." Hanna slurred, a sign that she has already had a few. She danced her way to the table with drinks and helped herself, along with the rest of us.

A few hours later and a lot of drinks done, I felt so out of it. All of a sudden I felt sick.
"I'll be right back Emily." I stumbled away to the bathroom and the drinks came up like magic. I wiped my mouth with my hand and washed my hands.
'Damn, I look horrible', I thought as I looked at my image in the mirror.
"Hey Ali, you alright?". The voice very may so it wasn't Emily. I opened the door and there was Noel.
"Oh hey, yeah i'm alright. Just a little bit too much to drink is all. But I gotta go, the girls are waiting for me." I pushed past him and he grabbed my arm.
"I don't think so, you're coming with me. I have other plans." His breath smelled of liquor so he obviously was drunk. I was too, but not as bad as him. I tried to pull away and he gripped me harder.
"Noel, please don't." I begged, having an idea about his intentions.
"Shut up and come with me." He led me to a room and I tried to scream for help. No one heard so I had to try and save myself. I kicked and screamed, but that didn't help one bit. My tears just started flowing and I closed my eyes think about when it would all end.

Emily's POV

'It's been a little bit long', I thought. Where could Ali be. I guess she went to the bathroom, but it's been super long.
"Hey, can you guys help me look for Ali? I haven't seen her in a while."
"Yeah, of course."
We then split up looking for Ali. Upstairs bathroom, no one. I began to check the rooms and as I got closer to one, I heard crying and grunting. I opened the door and there was Noel and Ali. My poor baby, how did I let this happen?
"GET OFF OF HER YOU BASTARD!" I pushed him off of her and just held her fragile body.
This is all my fault.
