Remember

Part 1

It's my best friends birthday, and she's now 18 like me. Jasmine is a beautiful girl, or now woman with naturally half way curly but more wavy hair. It's a medium brown shade and her eyes are a cold blue and very intense. I am opposite in a way with my blond hair and green eyes, at 6 foot I am quite a bit taller than her 5" 7' body that is average sized in weight. It's pretty clear to everyone that I am I'm love with this girl but sadly, she has a boyfriend. A very jealous boyfriend that isn't very happy with her having a close guy friend. So I am having to miss her party as not to cause a scene with Adam, her boyfriend.

Being 7 at night and her party having ended a around 6 I'm now safe to go see Jasmine at her house. I walk to her house, it's only a few houses over, and knock on the door. After about 10 seconds I knock again. When there is no answer I open the door and take off my shoes, closing the door behind me. Her parents aren't home by the lack of cars in their driveway and neither is her sister by the lack of noise and missing shoes at the door. I walk toward her bedroom, but when I hear her scream I start sprinting. I try the door handle, the doors locked. "Jasmine!" I yell while pushing upon the door. "Percy, help!" I hear her sob as well as a "Shut up!" I can tell is from Adam.

I back away from the door and slam my foot hard against the door. It gives after a few kicks ad I rush into her room seeing Adam on top of her pulling on her shorts to get them off. Jasmine is crying, her mouth being invaded by his tongue as to keep her quiet. I grab Adam by the side and rip him off of Jasmine when he pulls away from her to breath and removes his hand from her now knee level shorts.

I pick Adam up and take him to the door. I drop him to the ground and hear the smack of his head hitting the floor. As I'm about to lock him out of the house, a fist connects with my shoulder, it's a weak shot and doesn't hurt. I pull him from his slumped form and push him out of the house towards the street. I quickly shut the door and lock it.

I walk back to Jasmine's room to find her curled up crying on her bed. I find her shirt on the floor and take it over to her. One hand is rubbing small circles on her back while the other of mine is dressing her back into her shirt and pulling up her shorts. When she stops crying, Jasmine positions herself to hug me. I hold her in my arms for a while until she pulls away. I stand up to leave but she pulls me back towards her. "Please stay." Her voice riddled with cracks. Looking at the clock it's close to 11. We had sat together for close to 4 hours. "You're clearly tired, you should try to sleep." Jasmine nods and says, "Thank you Percy." I smile, "Good night Jasmine." I lean down and kiss her cheek, then make my way to her door. I'm not a few steps out of Jasmine's house when a hand lands on my shoulder and an explosion of pain rips through my chest. I'm suddenly pushed forward and land on the side of my head hard, then everything turns to black...
