Fallen Hope

He then looked at me.

"Have yu never popped a girl's cherry before?"

"I never even heard that saying before." I admitted.

"A cherry is a girl's virginity. When you 'pop the cherry' is when you take their virginity. And they usually end up bleeding afterwards." He explained. "I can't fucking believe I have to tell you this. You're 18."

"I'm sorry..." I apologized.

"Whatever it's fine." He rolled his eyes.

Janey and I eventually went back to my room. We didn't talk much. I think we were too embarrassed. We laid down to sleep. She was by the wall.

I then heard my phone buzz. I looked at it. It was Eddy telling me to come to that spot. I looked over and saw that Janey was aslee. I got up and started to get dressed.

"Where are you going teddy bear?" She asked half asleep.

"I need to go somewhere. Last night Eddy took me to this one place. And we wants me to go back out there. If I deny he'll ask why and he'll get suspicious." I get a short explanation.

I then left and went to the spot. I got out and sat on the tailgate next to him. He kissed my head.

"Sorry I wasn't about to talk to you today. I was kinda busy." He apologized.

"It's fine. I actually had to drive all the way to and back from Monterey today." I responded.

"Woah, really? Why?" He was surprised.

"Because my old friend; Janey called me and told me that she can't take it there anymore. And she's really the only person who doesn't see me as a complete disappointment. And Brian said that she can stay with us for awhile." I lied.

I could tell by his smile that he was already planning things.

"Why don't you bring her to band practice tomorrow? She needs to meet some other people around here." He insisted.

"Okay. Sounds cool." I agreed.

"So what song do you wanna sing? Start one."

"We all came out to Montreux. On the Lake Geneva shoreline, to make records with a mobile. We didn't have much time." I began. I then stopped.

"Frank Zappa and the Mothers were at the best place around. But some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground." He sang.

"Smoke on the water, fire in the sky. Smoke on the water." We sang together.

He then began kissing me again. He pushed me onto my back where I was laying on the bed of his truck again. He got of top of me.

"Get off of me Eddy." I demanded.

I kept trying to push him off put he wouldn't budge. He covered my mouth.

"Shut up." He hissed.

He tried to remove my clothes. I gave up. Fuck the plan. I wasn't gonna let him do this. I kneed him in the balls.

He had to move. I jumped off. I began to run but before I could get into my car he grabbed me and yanked me to him.

"You fucking idiot! That was the worst mistake you could've made!" He yelled.

I tried to get out of his grip but he punched and upper cutted me. I fell down onto the concert and he kicked me in the balls back. He then drove away. I could barely move.

The wind was knocked our of me. I fucked up the whole plan. I didn't know if I should feel ashamed of myself or not.

He was trying to rape me. And I got away from it. With the price of no revenge and getting my ass kicked.
