Ok now for the chapter, talk to you guys soon, Enjoy!!
Rusty showed Rachel her dorm, helped her do what she needed to get settled and then they headed out to the town. He took her to O'Malley's, bought her lunch. Then they went over to the pool table and he taught her how to play. After the first game, they played a couple more games were she ended up beating him both times. She laughed and told him she had a good teacher, which he smiled and agreed with her.
They then went back over to their table and talked for a couple hours. She told him about her family, her brother and about Charlie. She told him about growing up with jack and being the flower girl in his wedding when she was 7. She smiled and said that she had always been really small and that they didn't have anyone else to do and that she had really wanted to be in it and Jack never could tell her no.
Robby had laughed and she went on and told him about Charlie being born when she was 10 and how she had adored him and in return he adored her. Her mom would let her come over everyday after school and when she got her homework done told Sara that she could play and help take care of him. Sara agreed liking the idea and would help her with her homework. She then said that when Charlie got older that they started playing basket ball and baseball together and when Jack was there he would play with them. She loved doing this with Charlie that he was like a little brother to her.
Then the day he shot himself she was still in school, and her mom pulled her out of school and they went to the hospital. Charlie had been crying for his aunt Rachy and when she got there Jack took her in. They stayed with him, tell he died. After his funeral, Jack and Sara had a huge argument and split up, Jack hid his feelings and went on a Special ops mission and Sara went to her parents. She told him that she herself went into a pretty bad depression and had recently started being able to talk about it.
He looked at her and saw that she had tears running down her face and he reached out and brushed them away. He told her that if she ever needed to talk about it that she could go to him. She smiled and told him thanks and that during the whole thing she didn't really have anyone to talk to about it cause they were all going throw it to. He smiled and said that now she had someone.
She told him thanks and then asked about his family. He smiled and told him that he was from Colorado city, Texas and had lived there tell he was 18 and then had gone to the Academy. He told her that his parents were awesome and that they loved him and his twin sisters very much, and supported everything they did. He told her that his grandparents were the same and they lived a little ways a way from them in Odessa Texas. He then told her that his sisters were a year younger than her and that they were planning on coming to the Academy the next year.
She smiled and told him that was awesome. He smiled and nodded and then asked her if she wanted to go somewhere else, maybe to the park and take a walk. She nodded and said that she would like that.
So they got up and headed to the car and headed to the park. When they got there that walked around and then she remembered the swings and went running over to them. He smiled and followed her over to them and pushed her on the swings.
After a couple hours at the park they decided that they should head back to the Academy cause it was getting late and they had a big couple days coming up.
So they went back to his car and headed back to the Academy and when they got out, Colonel Harrison was waiting for them.
Rusty looked over at Rachel who's eyes were huge and he laughed, "Hey it's ok, if he had wanted us in sooner he would have called me." He told her trying to calm her down.
"Ok," She said and they got out of the car and walked over to the colonel.
"Hey sir, what's up?" He asked.
"not much, did you two have fun?" He asked
"Yes sir, we did." Rusty said and Rachel just stood there and nodded
"Good I'm glad." He said and then turned to Rachel and gave her an encouraging smile.
"Rachel, your brother called wanted to tell you that he's having to go on a mission and that he should be back in about a week or two." He told her.
Rachel nodded, "Ok, I figured when he had to go back to the base. Thanks." She said
"No problem," He said and smiled.
Rusty smiled, "Sir I think we should get to bed, next few days are going to be rough." He said to the colonel.
"I agree, why don't you show her back to her room and then head to yours." He said.
"yes sir." Rusty said.
"Ok see you in the morning kids, oh and Rachel your room mate should be in your room now, just thought I would let you know so you wouldn't be surprised." The Colonel said.
"Thank you sir," She said smiling shyly at him.
"No problem, now go on, it's getting late" He told them
They both nodded and Rusty walked her back to her dorm and to her dorm room. She got to the door and looked at him nervously, "I don't want to go in there." She said.
He smiled, "It'll be ok, you got along with me quickly didn't you?"
"Yea, but I have always gotten along better with guys, guess it's cause I have a big brother, I don't know but it's true." She said.
"Well maybe you will surprise yourself and get a female friend." He said smiling.
"Maybe," She said.
"Well listen, you need some sleep, so go on in there be yourself. If she is a nice person you well love you." He said and she smiled.
"Ok," She said
"Good, I'll see you in the morning, ok?" He said.
"Ok," She said and he bent down and hugged her.
"Night Rachel," He said.
"Night Rusty." She responded and he waited tell she walked in tell he left.
It ended up that her and her room mate didn't really get along but it didn't really matter cause Rachel was usually only in there to change, shower and sleep. She did everything else with Rusty, or somewhere else.
A couple months after Rachel got to the Academy she was sitting under her favorite tree waiting for Rusty to get their. It was their day off and they were going to go to the park like they always did on their days off.
While she set there she thought about Jack, he had called her when he got back from the mission, which had taken longer than 2 weeks, to let her know that he was ok. He hadn't been able to come see her, but promised he would try soon and she knew he meant it.
As she set thinking she didn't notice the huge guys coming towards her laughing. At the time she was thinking about Rusty, and how sweet he has been to her since she got there. She didn't make friends easy, because she was so shy, but with him around she was comfortable and he helped her find some friends, even though they were all guys. But she didn't car, she got along with them better.
Just then some one set next to her and pushed her roughly, which pissed her off and she kicked them. The next thing she knew the guy that pushed her was on top of her trying to kiss her and she started screaming.
Rachel screamed again and tried to fight the guys, but they were to strong for her.
"Stop!!" She screamed and the biggest one slapped her.
"Shut up!" He snapped and started touching her and trying to kiss her.
But before he could the guy was knocked off of her and punched in the face.
"I would get out of here now before I decide to go and tell the colonel and call her brother." The person said coldly.
"I don't care, she's hot." The guy told him.
"She isn't a toy, Ron! She's a sweet young woman that hasn't done anything to deserve this treatment, no woman does." He snapped.
"Whatever," Ron said and him and the other two guys that had just been watching left.
When they were gone he looked at Rachel who was curled up in a ball, crying. He ran over to her and scooped her up in his arms. She screamed again but he quickly calmed her down by telling her it was him, Rusty, and that the guys were gone.
"Rach, are you hurt?" He asked her a few minutes later.
"No" She said.
"Good, than let's go to Colonel Harrison. He needs to know about this." Rusty told her, standing up and gently setting her down on the ground.
"Ok," She said.
He kept an arm around her and they headed towards Colonel Harrison's office. When they got there, Rusty Knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Came the reply.
"It's Rusty….And Rachel, sir," Rusty replied.
"Oh good, come on in," Harrison said.
Rusty opened the door and led Rachel in. When they got in and Rusty saw who was in there with the Colonel Rusty smiled at Rachel and squeezed her shoulder.
"Hey Rach, look who is here," He said.
She looked up, tears still coming down her face, and almost smiled at who she saw standing there. She pulled away from Rusty and went running over to her brother.
"Jack!" She said flinging her arms around him.
He hugged her back, but he had seen the tears and pulled her close, "Hey what's wrong? I would usually think it was from getting to see me, but it is obvious that you were crying before this." He said pulling her back to him and rubbing her back, "What's wrong?"
She tried to tell him, but couldn't get it out. Jack kept rubbing her back and looked up at Rusty, "Hey can you tell me?"
Rusty nodded and then proceeded to tell Jack and Colonel Harrison the whole story. By the time He was done, Rachel had stopped crying, and Jack looked like he wanted to shoot something.
"Damn!" Harrison said and then looked over at Rachel, "Are you ok?"
"Yes sir," She said.
"Harry you sound like this has been happening before." Jack said in a threatening voice.
"It has, and I'm sick of it. These three boys have been picking on girls for about two years. Well most of the girls, they haven't been doing anything to mine tell now, cause I told them that if they ever did I would make sure they weren't just suspended." Harry said.
"Well I guess they wanted to see if you meant it." Jack snapped.
"I did mean it Jack," Harry said, "Hold on a sec." He said and picked up his phone, "Johnson it's Harrison….I need you to come to my office as soon as possible…Thank you." He then hung up.
Who's Johnson?" Jacks asked.
"Ron, Jonathan, and Trevor's Colonel." Harry said.
"Oh," Jack said.
"Yea, he's on his way," Harry said.
Jack nodded and looked down at Rachel who was still clinging to him, Damn! Just when she was coming out of her shell, this had to happened. He said to himself.
