Rachel stood up, unable to move. He had said five minutes, right? She looked around checking that no one was there and then proceeded to walk. A cut was beginning to bleed on her lip, and she felt a pain from her legs, however she continued to walk.

Just get home she told herself, ignoring the pain. Tears were beginning to well in her eyes, and her vision began to get blurry. She saw her apartment building, and then quickly ran inside, relieved. She hurried upstairs, and opened the front door, and swung herself in slamming the door to the rest of the world.

"M-m-Monica?" Rachel stuttered weakly. She was both relieved and scared to find no answer. She needed Monica, and also wanted to be alone. She limped into the bathroom, as she noticed that her ankle was swelling up. She stripped off, ashamed to even look at herself, and then got into the shower. Her arms and legs were covered in cuts, but she needed to get clean. After the shower she would feel better. She started to wash her body, but she could still feel his hands on her, like after you get off a boat, you can feel rocking. She wasn't clean. She grabbed the sponge, and started to sponge herself down. She scrubbed and scrubbed, trying to get his fingerprints off of her, but to no avail. Only once she saw the water in the bath being red, did she realise she was scrubbing too hard.

She got out, and wrapped herself up in a towel.

Lie down, be a good girl

"Who said that?" Rachel asked, swinging around

Stop! Please! DON'T!

"Who's there?" She shrieked, tears running down her face

If you don't do what I want, you'll regret it

"Please...leave me alone," Rachel sobbed, curling up into a ball

WHORE

"STOP IT!" She screamed, and started crying hysterically. She heard the front door open and close and a hand on her back.

"NO!" she kicked and screamed. She gasped for air. Another hand appeared

"LEAVE ME ALONE!" She shrieked, and swung her arms. She felt it hit flesh she felt better. She swung again.

"...ch! Rach! RACHEL!" She heard the voice. That wasn't his voice. It was full of concern. She opened her eyes to see Joey. Joey with blood on his face; Blood that she hoped was hers.

"Oh, Joey," Rachel cried, as he helped her up. He wrapped his arms around her as she started to cry.

"Shh. It'll be OK," He said as he stroked her hair.

So that's the first chapter :) Please review if you want more
