After 'Cut' is Called, a Sprousehart Story

Am I safe now?

{This chapter honestly broke me to write so please read with caution, and you might want some tissues}

~Lili's p.o.v.~
Blake, the man who sexually assaulted me on the set of a movie a few years ago. How could I ever forget his voice? Keep calm Lili, stay calm. He can't get to you unless you let him. I breathe in then out before saying "Blake, what do you want?" I make sure it is clear, calm and strong, at least my acting is paying off because I am freaking out inside. "I'm glad you remember my name" he comes really close to me then whispers in my ear "oh my precious Lillypad, how I have missed you" then he brushes my hair, this makes me squirm. "What do you want?" I say again sure of what I'm blurting out. He just laughs at me now like I said a joke, but to me, this is not a laughing matter. " I wanted to see you. I've missed you, it's been too long, way too long" he says now sitting next to me than putting his hand on my thigh. I don't move, I don't say anything, I'm just there waiting for this to be over. when is Cole going to arrive? He should be here by now, I need him to help me.

"So Lillypad, what have you been doing without me? You couldn't possibly be having any fun when I'm not around could you?" I just shake my head in response, not meeting his eyes. Then he pulls my chin up harshly and yells into my face "LOOK AT ME LILYPAD, LOOK ME STRAIGHT IN THE EYES!" So I do and then I remember all the horrible things that man did to me. Every single time he touched me, every time he kissed my face and my body. I remember every word he has ever said to me, every time he told me to undress for him. I remember it all.

I don't move, I don't cry, well not on the outside. Inside my head, I am screaming. I want to be saved, no one should be able to do these things to another person without consent, especially not a 48-year-old man to a now 21-year-old woman. But when he started I was only 16! I WAS 16 the FIRST TIME HE RAPED ME! Since then he has raped me 146 times, and I remember every single one.

He is now rubbing my thighs, getting higher and higher each time. Then he started to kiss my cheek, then went down to my neck and all of a sudden he grabbed my chin and turned my head back to face him then he kissed my lips. I didn't kiss back, I never do.

Then suddenly he is being pulled away from me. I'm taken back because I don't know what is happening, then before I know it, I've gotten up and I'm in my bathroom with the door locked.

~Cole's p.o.v.~
I get to Lili's apartment and the door isn't locked which is unusual because I have a key so she wouldn't have left it open for me. I go in and I see Lili and this other man, they are kissing. It aggravates me so I go over and I pull the man up off of her. I turn him so he is looking at me. He is a bigger older guy, probably in his late 40s and I immediately know Lili would never consent to what is going on. Then she gets up and runs to her bathroom.

I know something is deeply and truly wrong here. I take my phone out of my pocket and take a photo of this man's face. He seems quite startled like he doesn't know what just happened. Then I dial the security number and throw him outside and lock the door so he could be taken away by the police. Then I immediately go to Lili.

I go to open the bathroom door but it's locked. "Hey Lils, it only me, Cole. No one is going to hurt you, I promise. Just let me in Lils, I'll help you." Then she unlocks the door and I rush in there. She's on the floor, she emotionless. I pull her up so she is standing then I pull her into my embrace.

Then I guide her to her bed. She still hasn't moved, she hasn't said a word. I think she is broken, and I honestly have no idea how I can help to fix her. "Lils, you don't have to talk, but please looks at me," I say hoping that she might just show me she isn't as broken as I think. She looks at me right in my eyes and I know that something seriously wrong has happened to her. Something that she isn't going to get over easily.

I see the pain in her eyes. I feel the pain from them. I begin to cry, knowing that she can't because she is in so much pain, she doesn't feel it anymore. I just want to take the pain away from her and I want it all, she didn't deserve it. Then suddenly she speaks up, "is he gone now? Am I safe now?" She says emotionless. "Yes baby, you are safe now, no one is ever going to hurt you ever again, I won't let that happen." I kiss her hair and bring her tighter into my embrace. I am never going to leave her, never again, not even for a minute.
