Save Me

Chapter two

I change into my pyjamas and go to the kitchen and get water for myself. Cotton mouth.

Note: my shorts just cover my ass.

Jake's friends were in the kitchen mostlikely getting munchies. "Hey" one of them said. "Hi?" I said. "How's it going?" He asked. "I'm high and have pasties. So pretty good. How about you?" I asked getting a glass from a drawer. "Same here. He said coming closer leaning over me getting a glass. His groin area was touching my ass and various other parts. I was a little uncomfortable. I stood up and this guy shadowed my every movement. Touching me as much as possible. I turned away from the sink after filling my glass and toward his chest. I was wearing a low cut tank top And a sweater i'd zipped up most of the way. He slid his hands around me waist and up my zipper. He then slowly started unzipping it. His friends were watching. I grabbed his hand. "Stop." I said. He pushed my hand away and held it back continuing to unzip my sweater. I put my water down and grabbed his hand again. "Seriously. Stop it." I said digging my nails into his hand. "Come on baby, i just wanna see a little more of you. Please." He said. "No." I said scared now. He heard it in my voice. He looked at his friends who came up on either side of me, each one grabbed an arm. Where was Jake?! "Please don't!" I said struggling against them. "Shhh... It's okay..." He said placing on hand over my mouth. The other undoing my zipper the rest of the way. I realized that they weren't high on pot. It was glass. Crank. It makes some horny and aggressive. They pinned me against the side of the counter. He slid his snake like hand over my stomach and headed upwards. Thats when i felt tears start streaming down my face and muffled sound of crying were heard. My muffled crying. He was just sliding his hand onto my Brest when the front door opened. Jake! He didn't even notice Jake - his buddies did- that was until he came over and punched the him square in the face. I slid onto the floor and started crying. I guess Echo heard the thud of the guy hitting the floor. Jake decked him, then crouched down next to me. He pulled me towards him. He now sat on the floor next to me and let me stay in his arms and try to breath again. I did hear Echo ask "What the fuck happened?!" Jake explained. I felt her hug me from the other side.

I stopped crying. After a while. "No one can know... Only us... I don't want to be known at the girl that almost... Got raped..." I said almost silently. "Okay." Echo said. "Just us." Jake agreed.

Echo and i went back to her room and got higher. Jake took care of the one guy. The other two fucked off i guess. Jake came back and sat with us in Echo's bed. Just like that. All night long. Talking about random stuff. I passed out on Jake's shoulder around four in the morning. Echo passed out next to me and Jake fell asleep sitting up against the wall and his hand on my knee.

I woke up and checked my phone. Noon. Jake was still there. So was Echo. "Good, you're up. I've had to piss since eleven thirty." He said getting up and moving. "You could have moved me." I said to him. "Didn't want to." He said with a stupid half smile. "Shut up!" Echo yelled into her pillow. "Echo! You're up!! Wake up, wake up!! " i yelled at her. She threw a beanie baby at me so I whipped it at her. "Ow! What the fuck!" She said into her pillow. I hovered over her and started bouncing a little bit. "If you knock it off i will get up." She said slapping my leg. "Deal." I sad. Just as i move away from her she tackles me. Pins me against the bed by sitting on my stomach. "Are you done?" I asked. "For now," Echo said getting off me. "Good." I sat up. "I'm sorry i didn't come to the kitchen sooner..." She said. I'd nearly forgotten. "It's okay. I should have see the signs of glass use.. It's over. Can we forget about it?" I asked. She nodded. Jake walked back in. "Breakfast? Or in this case lunch?" He offered. "Sure." I said smiling.

He made us grilled cheese. The first was little burnt. Well really burnt. "Move, i'll do it." I said nudging him with my hips and grabbing the spatula from him. I put the burnt one in the trash and started over. "It's not that bad." He defended. "It was practically charcoal." Echo said. "Too much butter and too hot of a stove top will do that." I said turning the heat down. "Whatever. I tried okay." Jake said jokingly.

I made three grilled cheeses, perfectly golden brown might i add. We ate I front of the T.V. Watching Jerry Springer.

I went home around two, hugged them both bye and as i stepped off the porch Jake asked me "You wanna come over later? My buddy got a new sample product. He's letting us test it. Echo's coming." "I am?" Echo asked. He nodded. "Okay. Cool." She said. "Uh... If i can get out of the house under my mom's nose." I said. "Oh! Your vase is still here." She said. "You still use stupid names for it? Mine and one of my buddies' was... 'Kite.' Cause when you use it you'll be flying." Jake said smiling. "Wow." I said to him. "Oh like vase is any better?!" Jake said. "He has a point." Echo said to me. "Yeah.. Well gotta go. See you later maybe." I said. "Bye." "Bye!" They said as i started walking home.

I got there and it was saturday so mom would be in the yard by now. I walked out back, "Hey," i said. "Hi, how was it?" My mother said. "Okay.." I said remembering what had happened. "Good." She said. "I'm goiing to go to my room. Okay?" I told her. "Alright."

So my mother and I may not have the best relationship but not everything we do sets each other off. Some things, not all.

I Went on my lap top as soon as i got in my room.

Don't worry, the internet is still social media, wannabe hipsters, whiny status and cats.

I stayed up there until dinner then went back up after.

Around nine my cell rang. "Hello?" I asked.

"Hey, my buddy will be here in an hour, you still down?" Jake asked.

"Yeah. I'll be over in.. Twenty?"

"See you then."

"Bye."

"Bye."

'So how are you going to get out of the house? Your mom's here?' You might ask. Just wait, have faith.

I went down stairs "I'm going to go to bed okay? Night." I told her. "Okay, night."

I went up stairs and did my 'Before bed ritual.' Then i formed my pillows so they look like a body -sort of- in the dark. I changed into my black jeans and punisher crop top. 'Now what you going to climb out the window?' Yep. Yep i will. And i did, didn't slip off the ledge either. Took me five minutes to get there but i got there.
