Hospital
(normal pov)
Caleb paced the waiting room, waiting for news. He had called Mr.Garwin and Mrs.Garwin and Reid. He saw a nurse come toward him.
"Excuse me are you the one that came in with the young girl?" she asked. Her name tag read, Anna.
Caleb nodded. "Is she okay?"
"Normally we can't tell you since your not family but...she's not doing well." Anna said.
Caleb sighed. "What happened to her?"
Anna's face showed anger. "She was raped multiple times." she seethed.
Caleb frowned angrily. A part of him wanted to go find whoever did it and kill them.
"Caleb!" He heard. He turned and saw Mr.Garwin and Mrs.Garwin.
"Is she okay?" Mr.Garwin asked. Mrs.Garwin had a tissue to her mouth.
Caleb sighed. He shook his head. "She was raped multiple times." he said in a almost whisper.
Mr.Garwin ran a hand over his face. "Where's Reid?"
"I called him." Caleb said.
"Would one of you like to see her?" Anna asked.
Mrs.Garwin nodded. "Yes."
"Come on then." Anna said, leading Mrs.Garwin to her daughter.
Mr.Garwin sighed. "Reid was supposed to pick her up."
Caleb shrugged. "He was at Nicky's last I saw. I left early to go home."
Mr.Garwin nodded.
Reid walked in then. Worry wasn't on his features at all. Maybe disappointment but that's about it. "What happened?" he asked, crossing his arms.
Mr.Garwin sighed.
"Come on Reid." Caleb said, pulling him away from his dad and toward a soda machine.
"What is it Caleb?" Reid asked.
Caleb sighed and leaned against the wall. "She was raped multiple times."
"What?" Reid asked, anger in his voice. Not anger that someone would do that to his sister (or step-sister) but anger that someone would do that to any girl.
Caleb gave him a look. "Reid, why didn't you go pick her up?"
"Huh? Wha..? Oh...uh...heh. I forgot." Reid said with a small shrug.
"You forgot? You forgot?!" Caleb asked.
Reid nodded. "Yea."
Caleb frowned at Reid. "Because you forgot she had to walk! Reid, she was raped!" he said, trying to get through to his friend.
"I know! I heard ya the first time!" Reid said.
"Then why aren't you ready to go kill the guy or guys or go see her?" Caleb questioned.
"For a few reasons. One, I don't know who the guy or guys are. Two I'm not that stupid (Caleb snorted) and three what if it wasn't well rape?"
"What?! You don't think it was rape?!" Caleb asked, angry.
Reid shrugged. "Well, I mean what if it just got a little rough and she didn't like it."
Caleb shook his head and sighed in anger. "Reid...dammit Reid! It wasn't like that! She was walking the street, hugging herself. Her shirt was ripped and so was her jacket! Her pants were ripped and her fly was broken! She had blood all over her! She sobbed for ten minutes straight!"
Reid nodded, looking a little ashamed.
Caleb sighed. He saw Mrs.Garwin come back, crying softly. Mr.Garwin hugged her and then went back.
Reid sighed. "What now?"
"Well, we have to hope they can catch the guy or guys."
Reid nodded.
Both teenagers went and sat down. Mr.Garwin came back a minute later. "Reid, do you want to see Brandy?"
Caleb looked over at Reid.
"Uh...I don't know." Reid said, not fully wanting to see her because now he was feeling guilt for not picking her up.
Mr.Garwin sighed. "Caleb? Would you like to see her?"
Caleb nodded slowly. He wanted to make sure she was okay. "Yes, sir."
Mr.Garwin nodded and directed Caleb to Brandy's room.
Caleb went to Brandy's room. He knocked on her door softly. He could see through the window, that she was facing the door. She didn't say come in or nothing. She was just staring blankly at the wall. He opened the door and went in and sat in the chair near her bed.
"Elizabeth?"
She didn't answer. Caleb sat there for a little bit, thinking.
"...thank you..." came the small whisper. Caleb looked at Brandy and saw her glance at him.
"No problem. Are you okay?" he asked, concerned.
Brandy didn't answer but a slight shake of the head told Caleb she wasn't.
A/N: Sucky place to end it but heh. I hope you guys liked it! REVIEW!
