This Crazy Life

Chapter 15

It felt a little weird having Taylor and Gracie sleep together after just two days. Gracie is not a slut. She doesn't just sleep around. There was an instant love connection, haha that feels weird to say.

Shawn's POV:

We all heard Gracie screaming and crying this morning. Hayes, Johnson, and Jacob told us how she looked when Mahogany kicked them out. "She was a mess, I think something happened to one of her friends. She was totally freaking out." No one really talks, we're all worried about her. I can hardly keep myself in this room knowing something might be wrong.

Everyone starts getting ready for the event, which starts at noon. We have three hours. Mahogany comes in around 9:30, dressed in high waisted shorts and an LMFAO crop top. Jacob pecks her on the cheek and puts an arm around her waist. We all wait impatiently. 

"Gracie's fine guys. She's getting ready and said that I could tell you all what happened." Matt and Gilinsky come in and sit down on the floor in front of Mahogany. She launches into the story of how Gracie and her friend were at an end of the year party on Friday night. She was drunk, super drunk. Mahogany hesitates, then continues with the story, leaving the part about me out. 

So Mahogany knows there was a mystery boy and Gracie obviously asked her not to tell. Embarassment? Shame? Ugh. She then tells a part of the story that I didn't know. "While Gracie was... otherwise occupied, her friend got into some trouble. A guy at the party drugged her and raped her." Mahogany looks at her feet. We all stand there in shocked silence. I saw Gracie walk into the party, I saw the girl with her. Raped? I put my head in my hands, this is so messed up.

"There's more..," Mahogany starts again. "Her friend that got raped, Emmie, she's... pregnant." My mouth, and everyone elses drops down to the floor. Before I bumped into Gracie, I saw Emmie and some guy making out in the corner of the room. I didn't know he had drugged her. What a douche. I look around the room and find Nash, the Jacks, and Matt all staring right at me. They picked me up from that party, and I guess they're putting the pieces together. 

"Gracie thinks this is all her fault because she got so distracted at the party. She says if she hadn't been so drunk and met that boy-," Mahogany clamps a hand over her mouth. The four guys are now looking at me with such intensity that I think I'm going to burst. They know.
