Chapter 2

Emily came over every day for the next week. She didn't know why, maybe to support her or just to stay out of her house and spend time with JJ. However it was the next Monday when everything went wrong. It seemed like every other day they went to school, held hands, sat together at lunch, walked home together. Nothing changed but when Emily got to JJ's place with a bunch of clothes in her bag, she saw JJ hanging from her shirt collar on a coat hanger as her dad screamed at her. As she started to see JJ gasping for air, her face bright red, she ran over, pushed JJ up so that it would unhook and slid her into her arms. JJ's father stared at her venomously as Emily ran with JJ in her arms into her room. Emily caressed JJ's face as she watched her get control of her breathing. Within ten minutes, JJ passed out while Emily watched over her shallow breathing.

JJ woke up with her head throbbing. She groaned in pain. Emily sat up and caressed her hair.

"It's ok, sweetie. I'm here."

"Time?" JJ ground out.

Emily looks at her watch then says,

"Let me get you some water first. It's 1:30."

"At night?"

"Yeah. You've been out for a while."

"Did you leave?"

Emily arches an eyebrow.

"Did you leave did he see you leave?"

"No. I was worried about you. I didn't wanna leave you alone."

"Fuck Emily. Just fuck."

"What? JJ? Nothing's gonna happen."

"You don't get it. Everything's gonna happen and it's gonna happen tonight."

She sits up and tries to take a deep breath but winds up coughing. Emily rubs her back. JJ glances over to the clock.

"You need to go."

"But-"

JJ points to the closet. Emily nods and goes in. That's when he arrives. He shoves open the door and it slams against the wall. JJ whimpers.

"You."

He runs up, jumps on her and grabs her throat.

"You and that bitch! She thinks she saved you. The fucking idiot. I wasn't finished talking to you!"

JJ scratches aimlessly at his arms trying to get some air.

"Oh yeah. I talked to her father earlier today. He said he'll deal with her disruptive behavior. I also heard from the neighbor next door that you two are dating. Seems that the little kid that they had wouldn't shut up about someone actually having a love life out here. Told him about that too."

At that moment Emily tripped on a toy truck in JJ's closet. She fell with a loud bang. Emily held in a yelp and prayed that he wouldn't check on the noise. But he did. He stumbled to the closet. For once in her life Emily really wished she was as smart as R. Kelly. She took a deep breath. He yanked open the door. She tried to hide but it was no use. He dragged her out of the closet and threw her on the bed next to JJ.

"Well it seems like you two are doing a great job coming out of the closet."

He almost chuckles.

"So is it true?"

The poor girl lets out a little whimper. Emily puts her body in front of JJ's.

"Honestly. Could you have been a little less obvious?"

He sighs.

"All that I've taught you and you go for a girl."

He growls.

"Maybe it's not you. Maybe it's not your fault. Maybe that little bitch brain washed you into liking her. Yeah. I should teach her a lesson."

"N-n-no. It wasn't her. It was my fault."

"Oh. How cute. Standing up for her. I guess I could take the bait."

He pins JJ down. Emily stares on shock for a second before lunging at him. She gets him off of JJ only to be pinned herself. His eyes were filled with hate and power. She whimpered. After he grabbed a handful of her shirt and tore it clear off her body she knew she was screwed. In a last ditch effort she said,

"JJ run! Go get help. Now!"

JJ jumped up and ran, out the door down the street... Emily however was not as lucky. He held her down while she tried to escape. He then, realizing he didn't have much time, decided to enjoy his last bit of freedom the best he could. He ripped off her pajama pants and underwear and reached down to do the same to himself. He reached down to position himself and pushed in. She squealed in pain. He groaned.

"You're so tight. Fuck. First time. God it's been a while."

He said as he continued to thrust into her. She continuously begged him to stop. Then she heard it.

"No!"

She heard him grunt almost as if was waiting for her to arrive then thrusts one last time before spilling his seed into her. Emily whimpered and her head fell to the side as he fell on top of her. It was then she saw JJ's face, tear stained and still panting. Then she heard some men talking and passed out.

JJ ran 2 miles in record time to the police station. She ran in and panted with panic filled eyes.

"He's hurting her. He got her. She saved me. Help!"

They ran to the child's side.

"What happened?"

"Emily! She saved me and told me to get help. He's hurting her!"

"Who?"

"My dad."

"Give me the address. Aaron! Come on we have to go quick."

JJ jumped in the car and the sped to her house. As soon as he stopped the car, she jumped out and ran inside. It was that moment she realized it was too late. She saw her dad on top of Emily and heard her begs.

"No!" She yelled.

Only to hear a grunt in response and see Emily's head falling to the side as she lets out a whimper. The officers walk in behind her guns drawn, only to gasp in horror at the sight in front of them. One of herbs men took the safety off of his gun and told him to get off of her and onto his knees on the floor. After he slowly complied, the man she first met bent down to look at her. He gently sighed as he saw the glazed look in her eyes. He gently turned her face to look at him in the eyes.

"Hi. My name is David. Emily will be just fine, sweetheart. Let me just call a bus."

As he called in an ambulance, he heard her whisper to no one in particular,

"No she won't. She'll be broken just like me."
