Blood

Just wanna put a TW here! There WILL be mentions of sexual assault and self harm here so if you're sensitive to these then please read with caution. I myself was sexually assaulted  as a child so this was a bit tricky to write, hope you understand. Enjoy!

The music pumped into Evelyn's veins and holy shit. She had never heard anything like it before. It was a mix of punk and Kurt's dark, screaming vocals. Maybe this worth it after all? Evelyn smiled and moshed along. People elbowed her but she didn't care, it was all part of the experience.

She couldn't see Lyra anymore. She must be banging a guy in the bathroom or something, seemed about right. Evelyn was just dancing around to the song she believed was called 'Love Buzz' , she had the Shocking Blue record at home, when a hand groped her. The hand felt around her boobs, and down her hips to her ass. Evelyn tried to elbow the person away but they wouldn't let go. 'Oi!' She shouted. It seemed no one had heard her. And that's the exact moment she felt his FINGERS stick inside of her. 'No! Fuck off!' She screamed and kicked. 'I'm not done just yet baby girl...' he growled. He gripped her and picked her up and took her top off in front of everyone.. Evelyn protested heavily and a few people tried to help, but most giggled at her, they didn't know the full story.

Her cuts showed and now everyone knew her dark secret before they even knew her name. She sat their and cried as the guy left to, presumably, get a drink, and put her clothes back on. Her whole body shook. She could barely even see, her eyes had gone so blurry from the tears. She ran into the toilets and screamed and cried and kicked the toilet bin over. And that's when she found it. An old razor blade on the floor. It called out to her. Her eyes went wide. Her pain would finally be gone. This would solve EVERYTHING. She dug the blade in and smiled to herself as droplets of blood formed.

Then that's when someone walked in. Lyra. 'Oh..' Evelyn's face dropped. 'It's not what it looks like! I just wanted to get away from it all...' she cried, her mascara was now all cried off. 'Well really? Cos that's damn well what it looks like to me!' Lyra shouted as she took the blade away and shoved it in her pocket. 'But Lyra...you didn't see...that man...he...he sexually assaulted me out there..' Evelyn weeped, holding her head in her hands. 'That was you? I heard people talking about a girl being undressed by this dude...but it was you? Evelyn oh my...' Lyra said, tears forming in her eyes this time.

'We can go now if you want. I just want you to be ok.' Lyra sobbed. 'But Kurt-' Evelyn protested. Evelyn got up and barged past everyone, she went backstage. The show had finished at last. Evelyn was gutted that she missed the last few songs, but all that mattered now was seeing Kurt. He was in the little room backstage, smoking a joint and sipping some beer out of a cheap, plastic cup.

He turned around and saw Evelyn, a crying mess, mascara running and clumped, hair messy and blood on her arm. 'Hey...Evelyn? What happened?' He said, looking very concerned as he pulled her into a hug. As soon as she realised he was trying to hug her, she flinched a bit. The touch of another man discomforted her. What if he was going to do the same?

'Well Kurt...'

Evelyn whimpered. And she told him the whole story.
