NOTE: I COMBINED CHAPTERS!!! Chap. 1 and 2 is now Chap. 1, Chap. 3 and 4 is now Chap. 2, etc.

*********I do not own any of these characters or 7th heaven. They belong to Brenda Hampton. This is my first published story; so let me know what you think. Keep in mind though, I'm only a teen. This story takes place during the fourth season (I think), when Robbie tries to get Mary to sleep with him. Please r/r************

Mary ran away, tears streaming down her face. How could this happen? I'm a good girl. What do I do now? She was confused and hurt. She was too far from home to walk there. It was 11 o'clock at night and pitch black outside. She begins to finds her bearings in this part of Glenoak, and tries to think of someone nearby that could help her. Wilson! No, I couldn't I'm too embarrassed. He would help me though, and he'll end up finding out eventually. I'll just go there. She approaches Wilson's parents house, where he is now staying, and begins to walk up the steps to the front door. She rings the bell, and struggles to gain composure. Wilson answers the door. 

"Mary? What are you doing here? What's wrong?"

"Wilson, can you help me, please?"

"Um…sure. With what?"

"Robbie took me to a motel tonight, to try to get me to have sex with him. I punched him in the nose, but that didn't help, it only made him madder. He got really angry and started getting rough, and he…"

"He what?"

"He raped me." Tears start to stream down her face, and she is barely able to speak between the sobs. "I was able to run away from him, but I didn't know where to go. It was too far for me to walk home. I hope you don't mind me bothering you."

"No, that's OK."

"Can you help me? I don't know what to do."

"Sure, um, I think you should go to the hospital. They should be able to help you."

"OK."

"I'll take you."

"Thank you."

"No problem. Mom, can you watch Billy for me? I have to go out. Mary, you go sit in my car. I'm just going to call your parents to tell them you're with me."

"Don't tell them what happened, please."

"Ok, if that's what you want."

Mary goes to sit in Wilson's car, just like she was told. A couple of minutes later, Wilson comes out of the house and gets in the car. They drive silently for 3 minutes, before Wilson speaks.

"I'm sorry. I don't know what to say to you. Is there anything else I can do?"

"No, you're doing plenty. Thank you."

"It's nothing, really. I feel so bad for you though."

"I can't believe he did this to me. This is all my fault. I should have known better. I shouldn't have punched him; I started all of this. I feel so dirty. I'm never going to be clean again. I feel so violated."

"This is not your fault. There is something wrong with him. He's a jerk."

"I know. Wilson what if I'm pregnant?"

"I don't know. You're strong though Mare, and you can get through anything. You'll get through this."

They pull up to the hospital, and Wilson starts to walks her into the emergency room. Halfway through the parking lot, Mary stops and breaks down in tears. He hugs her, and she buries her face in his chest. "Oh Wilson," she says, her voice muffled by his sweater. Once inside, he tells the nurse at the desk that Mary has been raped. She gives him forms for her to fill out, plus some additional ones for rape. She fills them out, and she is called into the exam room. Wilson walks out of the emergency room to use the payphone. He dials the Camden household in attempts to clarify his earlier call.

"Reverend Camden? Its Wilson."

"Hi Wilson. Where are you?"

"Well, were at the hospital. Mary just got called into the exam room."

"What happened? Is everything ok?"

"No, everything's not OK. I promised Mary I wouldn't tell you what happened, but I wouldn't be comfortable telling you over the phone anyways."

"Should we come down there?"

"Yeah, I think you should."

"OK, we'll leave right now. Thanks for calling us again."

"Your welcome."

 Wilson sits by himself, wondering what he should do. Should I stay or should I leave? What do I say to the Camdens when they get here? Should I tell them? He gets wrapped up in his thoughts, and before he knew it Rev. and Mrs. Camden were walking into the room.

"Wilson! What happened to Mary?"

"Well, why don't you go in and find out for yourself. I would be in there with her now, but they only allow in one family member, and they already know I'm not family."

"I'll go, you stay here Annie with Wilson."

"So Wilson, you won't tell us what happened but she's not OK?"

"Yeah basically, sorry. She made me promise her."

"Its OK I guess, Eric will find out soon enough. So how did you and Mary end up together tonight? I thought she was out with Robbie."

"She was, but then she came to me for help."

"What happened to Robbie?"

"Good question. I don't know."

The room is pretty quiet, but the silence interrupted by the sound of Eric screaming from inside the exam room. "HE WHAT?!" can be heard throughout the entire lower level of the Glenoak Community hospital.

"Was that Eric?"

"Probably"

Reverend Camden storms out of the room and into the waiting room to Annie's side. He looks like he's just seen a ghost.

"What happened?"

"Muh….muh…"

"Yes?"

"M-Mary was…was raped."

"Oh my god! By Robbie?"

"Yes."

"My poor baby! I have to see her."

"I'm going to call Sergeant Michaels. I knew Robbie was no good."

Eric and Annie both storm off in different directions, leaving Wilson all alone. I'm going to sit here and wait until Mary comes out. I hope everything's going to be okay. I feel so bad for her. Twenty minutes later, Mary and Annie return from the exam room, both with red eyes from crying. Mary has a stack of papers in her hand, and is hugging herself tightly. "Let's go find your father." Annie says to her. "Can I stay here with Wilson for a second?" Mary asks. She nods, and leaves the room.

"Are you OK?"

"No, not really. I feel dirty; I have to take a shower, maybe two."

"What do you have in your hand?"

"Some papers they gave me to read about rape."

"Oh. Do you want me to do anything for you?"

"No, you did plenty. Thank you."

"Your welcome."

"Wilson, I'm so scared. I could be pregnant or have an STD. They did tests, but the results take some time. What am I going to do? I can't deal with this."

"You'll be fine. And whatever happens, you can get through it, and if you want I'll help you."

"You'd do that, really?"

"Yeah, sure. Just call me whenever you need anything. I'll help you get through this, no matter what. I'm here for you if you need me"

She nods, and he gives her a hug. She leans her head on his shoulder and cries. Annie and Eric reenter the room to get Mary, and are taken aback by the sight before them. "Ahem. Mary, ready to go home?" Eric asks. She pulls away from Wilson, and joins her parents. They all say their goodbyes, and start to leave the hospital. "I'll call you in a couple of days to see how you are. Don't worry; everything's going to be just fine." Wilson tells Mary, and walks to his car.

During the car ride home, Rev. and Mrs. Camden try to find out exactly what happened tonight.

"Do you want to talk?"

"No, but I'll tell you anyways. Robbie took me to a motel tonight to try and sleep with me. He tried to put his hand on my shoulder, and I punched him in the nose. He got really mad at me, and started to get very forceful. He dragged me into the room and raped me. When he finished with me, I was able to run away. I was too far from home to be able to walk, but I knew I was near Wilson's house. I panicked and knocked on his door and he brought me to the hospital."

"Oh honey. Everything will be OK. You'll get through this. The whole family will be here for you."

"Please don't tell them tonight. I'll tell them tomorrow when I'm ready. I just don't want them to know right now."

"Ok hunny. But you definitely have to tell them tomorrow."

"I know"

They pull into the driveway, and get out of the minivan. They open the front door to find Matt, Lucy, Simon, and Ruthie all standing there. "What happened?" they all ask at once. "Your sister will tell you all what happened when she's ready. Don't bug her about it; she's had a long night. And, now that I think of it, so have all of you. Go to bed." Eric tells them, and they scurry up the stairs except for Matt. "Dad, Sergeant Michaels called for you about a half hour ago. He said to call him back tonight." He goes up the stairs, and wait for Mary at the top of them.

"Sergeant Michaels told me what happened. Where's Robbie? I'm going to kill him!"

"I don't know, I ran away from him. Look, Matt I don't want to talk right now. I'll talk later."

He hugs her, and she pushes him off of her. "Don't hug me. I'm dirty. I have to get clean; I'm taking a shower."

She runs into the bathroom and starts up the shower. She scrubs and scrubs, but doesn't feel clean. After about an hour, she gets out of the bathroom and goes into her room. Her dad is waiting for her in there. "I called Sergeant Michaels. He says that you have to go down to the station in the morning and tell the detective what happened if we want to file a report. Your mother and I will go down there with you if you want us to. Get some sleep now, it's been a long day." He walks out, and Mary falls face down on her bed. She cries for a long time, and thinks about what she should do. I don't want to go tell some stranger what happened to me. That's creepy. It's too early; I'm not ready. This is awful. I wish I were anyone else but myself right now. And I have to tell all of my siblings tomorrow, too. This is too much. I can't do this. I need help. She rolls over and looks at the clock. It says 3:30. She picks up the phone and dials Wilson's number.
