Chapter 7

Chrissy's P.O.V.

I tried pushing the hands way, as they struggled to lift up my shirt, but the grasp just tightened the more I fought it. "For fucks sake, just go with it, babe." a male stranger's voice mumbled in my ear, I could clearly hear, smell and taste the drunkenness. Obviously ignoring the command, I tried pushing him away as roughly as I could. Within a second I felt my right cheek heat up as he hit me.

A grip around my wrist forced me to follow him until he pressed me against a wall of some hut. "STOP AND LEAVE ME ALONE!" I shouted, but that earned me yet another slap. He was just about to smash his lips onto mine, when I suddenly noticed that he was gone.

I opened my eyes and looked to my left, to see him lying on the ground, his hands holding his nose. "SHE SAID LEAVE HER ALONE SO FUCK OFF." My eyes instantly widened as I saw Luke standing there with clenched teeth, his knuckles turning white and hatred in his eyes.

My attention went back to that guy as he threw up (multiple times) and then ran away as fast as he could, leaving me speechless. My body slowly but surely released the tension, but I was still shaking, my hands covered my mouth.

"What a douche.." Luke finally broke the silence, being awkward as he is and moving closer to me. "Are you okay? You're safe now, don't worry.." he removed my hands from my mouth, pulling up his eyebrows. "Thank you" I breathed out, while the eye-contact was kept. As a response, he gave me a smile, showing his dimples.

"I... uhm.. I gotta go.. Please stay safe now, and uhm.. shout when you need something." Luke mumbled, scratching the back of his head. "Oh... okay. Thank you again and uh, sleep well." I smiled and after he was gone I made my way back to our hut.

-----------------

"GOD CAN YOU MOVE YOUR BUTT OUT OF THE BATHROOM ALREADY I WANT TO SHOWER!" Amanda's voice echoed in the house, followed by someone slamming the bathroom door shut. I sat up, leaning on my elbows as Taylor peaked her bright blonde head through my door. "Morning, sleepyhead. Get up, we have a timetable to follow." she said and left.

I swung my feet out of the bed and ruffled through my messy hair as my legs carried me to the small kitchen. There I found Taylor sipping on a cup of coffee. "Mhm.. this coffee is like making love in a canoe." she mumbled, her eyes closed.

"Is it good?" I asked after I rubbed my eyes. "Nope, it's fucking close to water." she sighed and left as the bathroom was free. With a shrug, I poured some tea in a cup and let a sip of it run down my throat as I tumbled back into my room. I chucked on some denim shorts and a flowy top and put on light make-up before making my way to the first point on todays timetable.

Singing course

---------------------------

"Repeat after me." a brown haired boy instructed as he sung a couple of notes, holding his hands up. That was pretty much what we did for 60 minutes. When it was over, I whistled some song, that was stuck in my head, while I crossed the park, but someone pulled my shoulder, turning me around. I stared into a pair of green eyes. "Hey! Remember me?" a kind of familiar boy asked making me stutter.

"Ashton!" he cut me off, extending his hand. "Chrissy" I shook it. Ashton gestured, offering to go for a walk across the 'campus' so we started walking. "So are you enjoying the bootcamp?" he smiled at me, and a dimple appeared on his cheek. "Uh kind of, I guess."

"Hey have you heard about that guy who got kicked out this morning?" he asked, changing the topic abruplty and he kept talking, leaving no chance to answer. "I think his name was Steve and they say he tried to rape a girl last night... That must've been horrible.."

"Yeah, I'm sure it was.. What a douche.." I responsed, leaving out the detail that the girl was me. "Funny.. that's the same thing Luke said. You've met Luke before, right?" he asked, making me smile unvoluntarily. "Yeah I have.." I said, he didn't reply but it wasn't awkward. Being around Ashton seemed careless and he made me feel welcome.

"Anyways, Chrissy, I gotta go back to my hut. We should hang out more soon!" he pat my shoulder. "Why not? Okay, bye Ashton." I smiled and walked back to the "girl power headquarter".

The time had run past, so I decided to change and spend the rest of the evening in bed until I felt my eyes become heavy and I yawned, drifting off to sleep.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

Loud thumps ripped me out of my sleep and my eyes confusedly wandered to the window to find Luke's bright blue ones as he mouthed a 'follow me' through the glass with a huge grin on his face...
