You and Me

Chapter 29: I'm Here

I pace restlessly next to the bed, my heart in my throat as I look down at Camila. My thoughts are interrupted when I hear the broken door creak open and I whirl around to see Jess slowly walking through the door with a confused expression on her face.

“Y/N what’s going on? You sounded li-“ Jess begins but stops when she takes in the situation. I watch her eyes glance from the bloodied boy next to the wall, over to Camila who is passed out on the bed, and finally onto me.

“Y/N…what is going on.” She demands as she walks carefully over to me.

“Jess. I couldn’t find Camila anywhere and I searched the whole house 3 times for her but couldn’t find her anywhere! I was opening every door and found this staircase and came up it, heard a thud and ran into this room to find that guy” I point to the passed out body in the corner with disgust, “ with his shoes off and his belt undone standing over Camila with her shorts undone and who I think has been drugged.” I ramble off quickly but whimper out the last few words.

Jess' jaw clenches and she rushes over to Camila's side. I observe her pull off her backpack and dig through it before coming up with a flashlight.

“Kelley said that you’re a nurse or something.” I say as I watch her move over Camila.

“Yeah, I’m an ER nurse.” She says as she opens one of Camila's closed eyes, flashing the light on and peers into it. She checks her pulse point, and then pauses before turning around to look at me.

“You said her shorts were undone?” She asked in a serious tone and I nod my head.

“What about her underwear?”

“I-I don’t know. I don’t think that they were off or pulled down, I can’t remember Jess.” I say running my hands through my hair but wince when the cut on my hands get caught in my hair. Jess looks at me, then down at Camila, and then over to the boy on the ground before sighing.

“We need to get these two to a hospital.” Jess says as she goes to check the still unconscious boy, carefully maneuvering around the shattered glass.

“Jess we can’t let anyone see her leave like this! What if someone gets a picture of this!” I say immediately.

Jess stops examining the boy, stands, and walks over to what looks like a closet. She rips open the doors and grabs a large black hoodie before throwing it to me.

“Put that on her, and put your hat on her head. There is no way I’m leaving without getting these two to the doctor, and this asshole charged with attempted rape.” She says in repulsion.

“Camila. Camila you gotta wake up for me.” I say gently as I sit her up and try to begin putting the sweatshirt over her head.

“Y/N.” Camila mumbles under her breath.

“Yeah it’s me baby, just relax ok. We’re getting you out of here.” I say and place my hat on her head, shadowing most of her face.

“What’s your plan now Jess? How do we get that piece of shit down stairs?”

“Lucky for you this piece of shit is starting to stir. Jesus Y/N. I wouldn’t be surprised if you gave him a hemorrhage.” Jess mutters under her breath as she checks his eye with her flashlight.
