12

It was day three, and I was back in my cell. I felt numb all over, both inside and out. I've been sitting here for God knows how long. My stomach was hurting from hunger. I wondered when Ray and Samantha would kill me. I was becoming morbid enough to even wonder where they were going to bury my body. It was inevitable, unless I was found.

Ray and Samantha both came downstairs this time. I looked over at the two of them. They both looked like they had some kind of disgusting trick up their sleeves. Samantha walked over to me and watched me while her younger brother grabbed the power drill from the wall. He quickly joined his sister, standing in front of you.

"I guess you figured out we can't keep you here forever." Samantha smiled at me. "After all, our parents are coming back from vacation tomorrow. We can't afford them finding some young girl bound in the basement. I hope you don't mind having your brains scrambled."

Ray turned on the power drill; I heard it whir to life. He tested the trigger, and I watched as the drill bit spun rapidly in sharp bursts. "I'm not sure how quickly this will kill you or if it will even go through your skull right. This ought to be fun, considering I've never used one of these before for real."

I gulped hard. I hope I die fast.

Ray turned the drill on and started bringing it close to my face. Squeezing my eyes shut, I felt tears start rolling down my face. This definitely wasn't how I'd wanted to go out. Not now.

That's when I heard the policeman yell, "Ray, turn off the drill! Samantha, hold your hands up where I can see them!"

Ray turned off the drill; I saw Samantha throw her hands up in the air.

Haelie ran up to me as soon as the police had the Gerald siblings handcuffed. She still looked a little battered from where the girls had attacked her, and it made me hurt inside to see her like that. Despite all that, she still worked to get all of the duct tape off of me and got me out of the chair.

We held each other for a long time in silence. She held my nappy head and looked me in the eyes. "Are you okay, Valorie, honey?"

"I've been better. I'm just happy they didn't go back on their word." I hugged her close and kissed her forehead. "Looks like the girls did a number on you."

"Yeah," she said. "They beat me pretty good. It took me a day just to leave the house, and more to convince the police I wasn't bullshitting them. I'm so happy we got here in time."

"So am I."

The two of us kissed, and I heard Samantha mumble that she was going to be sick. One of the police told her to shut the hell up, that their parents were already on their way back from their vacation.

Haelie and I couldn't help but laugh.

The two siblings were put on trial in court. I was the victim, and I was forced to go through everything that happened during the two and a quarter days all over again. The prosecutor made sure to ask me if I had been raped while I was held captive. I was then made to tell the entire story to the jury. What made it worse is that Haelie had to sit there and hear it in court first before I was able to tell her. It made me sick to my stomach just thinking about it.

The jury came back with a verdict in an hour. Both siblings were convicted and were sent to jail, charged as adults. The bail for the two of them were set extremely high, but their parents didn't bail them out. Instead, Mr. and Mrs. Gerald thought it would be better that their children learn to take responsibility for their actions.

"Ray raped you?" Haelie asked me bluntly when we got back home. We were at her house, in her room.

I nodded, feeling tears form in my eyes.

She wiped the tears from my face, her voice soft. "Why didn't you tell me before the trial, sweetheart?"

Whimpering softly, I felt stupid and small. "I was scared and ashamed."

"Ashamed? Why are you ashamed for what he did to you, honey?"

"He raped me, and I couldn't even fight back. I couldn't physically say no. I felt so useless."

Haelie hugged me carefully and apologized for what he did to me. She told me that I didn't need to feel ashamed. It was all his fault for taping me and bounding me so that I couldn't do anything to go against him. She managed to make me feel slightly less pathetic.

"I love you," I said, and I meant it.

<><><>

A couple months had passed since Samantha kidnapped me and Ray raped me. Haelie and I had gotten back to life as usual, except our relationship was open and very much happy. It turned out that her mother didn't mind her daughter being a lesbian. Mom was perfectly fine with me, just like I thought she would be.

We went on a couple of random little dates to the restaurants in town. I found out that Trey and his family moved out of the town, which made me feel a little bit better. I don't think seeing him would have made me feel any better about guys.

The police felt the need to call me a couple of weeks following the trial to tell me that Ray had been the victim of multiple stabbings in prison, where he died. I felt absolutely no sympathy for him. I hope he rots in Hell forever for all I care. Haelie was happy to hear he got what he deserved for hurting me.

A month ago, I found out that I got pregnant from the rape. I felt devastated at first, but Haelie and I talked through it. She took it in stride and said we could raise the child together. She said that the kid needed a real chance at life, something the child couldn't have gotten had Ray still been alive. She would love the little one like it was her own. We still didn't know the baby's gender yet, so we had to keep guessing for names.

At the moment, Haelie and I were by the railroad tracks. It was our favorite place to come to. We would just sit at the edge of the tracks and talk about everything from classes to our future together. The place held a strong feeling for us, and it was something we agreed to never let go of, no matter where we moved. I knew I wanted to marry her someday soon.

She turned to look at me, smiling. "You look really pretty today, you know?"

"Thanks, honey." I smiled back at her, kissing her on the lips.

"I have a fun idea."

"What is it?"

"It's a game I used to play when I was little. You want to try it?" Haelie jumped down onto the tracks.

"What are you doing?"

"Come on! Don't you want to walk on the tracks with me?" She danced around on the tracks. "Come on, Val! Jump on here! Are you scared? Chick, Chick, Chick!"

My eyes widened, and I stepped back a second. Kasey?
