-after school-
-texts between bri and dj-
Bri: dj, can we talk?
Dj: yeah whats up
Bri: please don't be mad at me
Dj: whats wrong?
Bri: ok so i was in bio today and darlos is my lab partner. we barely talked but then all of a sudden he started rubbing my thigh. i didn't know what to do and i felt so uncomfortable. but i couldn't say anything. please don't be mad.
Dj: are you fucking serious? i'm gonna kill that mf
Bri: i feel so bad i'm so sorry
Dj: why do you feel bad you didn't do anything wrong
Bri: but i didn't stop him
Dj: baby it's okay. i know you just didn't know what to do. don't feel bad.
Bri: 🥺🥺🥺
Bri: can i come over right now?
Dj: yeah, i'm home alone
-bri arrives at dj's house-
as soon as dj opens the door, she falls into his arms and starts bawling. he closes the door and holds her.
"aw bri.."
bri sniffled. "i can't..." she sobbed.
"what do you mean?"
"this is just so much right now," dj pulled away from the hug and wiped her tears."i tried to tell monica about it and she said darlos did nothing wrong, and she just made me feel like i was nothing." she took a deep breath.
"monica really said that? what a bitch. how can you still be friends with her?"
"i don't know..." she sniffled.
"and darlos was touching you and you didn't want to be touched like that. that's wrong. do you wanna do something about it? he could get in serious trouble. that's sexual assault."
"no dj, it's okay. i mean it's not okay, but i don't wanna tell anybody about it."
"are you sure? cause i will pull up to his house right now and knock the shit out of him."
"yeah," she laughed. "it's okay though. i think i might just ask my teacher to switch our lab groups so i don't have to talk to him."
"alright," dj hugged her again. "how about we go get some shakes?" he smiled.
"i'm down."
