~Randy's P.O.V. ~
I could NOT believe this. That little ASSHOLE was moving on Ava's block? And she LIKED him? How she liked him was a mystery to me. He was so…so WEIRD. And plus he was a jerk. A BIG jerk. Poor Ava. She was being sucked into his man whore world. I knew exactly what he was all about. He didn't want a real girlfriend, or someone to go out with. All he wanted was to get as many girls in bed with him as possible. But Ava's too smart to sleep with him, so I won't have to worry about that. Still, he was a jerk. I don't want him near her. I'd seen what he does to girls when they don't give him what he wanted…
It was a Friday night, and the whole class was at Cody's house for his birthday.
I was really friggen tired. I wanted to go home. Everyone was getting drunk, but I didn't want to. I wasn't like that. Everyone from the class was there…except Ava. She came down with the flu the night before. I really wished she could've been there, 'cause I didn't really talk to anyone else except for my sister, Becky. Speaking of Becky…where the hell is she?
I looked around the crowd of people and tried to find my twin sister. "Becky?" I called. No reply. "Beck?" I tried again. Still nothing. I circled the room, struggling to fight my way through my drunken classmates, in search of Becky. She wasn't anywhere. Where the hell did she go?
As I continued to look, I bumped into my cousin and Cody's best friend, Ted. "Hey, Randy, have you seen Cody?" Ted had asked me. Weird. He was looking for his best friend and I was looking for my sister at the same time. WHAT A COINCEDENCE. "Nah, haven't seen him. Sorry, man. Have you seen Becky?" I asked hopefully. Maybe Ted had seen her. "Um….actually no. The last time I saw her she was with Cody," he shrugged. "Damn," I mumbled. "Maybe they're upstairs. Wanna come check with me?" Ted asked. "Yeah, sure," I nodded.
I walked up the stairs with my cousin. No one saw us leave the room….drunk idiots.
"Cody? Becky?" Ted called out to them. No one answered. Ted shrugged and led me to Cody's room. The door was shut. "Maybe they're in here," I whispered. He nodded and we quietly opened the door and stepped in.
HOLY SHIT.
I wished we hadn't stepped in. We both stood still, frozen in shock, when we saw what was going on. Cody was on top of my sister. He was hitting her, trying to get her to sleep with him. Poor Becky was screaming her lungs out. He covered her mouth with his hand and shushed her. She tried to yell again, but now you could barely hear it. Then Cody started stripping off his clothes, and then did the same to hers. And I'm guessing you know what happened now…
I wished I could've done something, but I was just too shocked to move. I bet my cousin felt the same way. After that night Ted never spoke to Cody again. I would've done the same thing. My sister was fine after that night. But she still cries if she hears Cody's name. She's afraid of him now…well duh.
I was NOT going to let that bastard rape Ava like he did to my sister. No chance in hell. I would tell her that she wasn't allowed to talk to him if I had to. I normally wasn't a very controlling person, but I was extremely protective when it came to Ava. I guess that after I realized how much I had hurt her when I chose to be with her cousin, I didn't want anyone else putting her in any more pain.
"Randy? What's wrong?"
I looked up to see Ava's pretty face staring down at me. Her blue eyes were like diamonds. They sparkled beautifully, especially when you looked right into them. She had a concerned look on her face. "Nothing. Nothing's wrong, Ava," I shook my head. "Randy…please tell me why you just went into a fog and your face turned red," she begged. "Um…I think you should sit down for this one," I said. She sat down on my lap and put her arms around my neck.
"I don't really know how to explain this to you," I said. "Well try…please," she pouted. She made the best puppy dog face I could. "Aw, Ava, don't do this to me," I smiled. She ignored me and continued to pout. "Fine, I'll try," I rolled my eyes.
"Ok, explain," she said anxiously. "Cody-uh…well it's just that I was uh…a little JEALOUS that you like him…I guess," I lied. No, no, no. That was all wrong. I wanted to warn her…but I would either scare her, or she wouldn't believe me…the second one was more likely. So I'd wait a little bit. Maybe I could talk to John about it.
"Ava, why don't you go upstairs and get ready for bed?" I suggested to Ava. "Ok, but are you coming?" she asked hopefully. "I just gotta talk to John about something, ok?" "Alright," she nodded. She skipped up the stairs happily.
"What do you wanna talk to me about?" John asked curiously. "It's about that Cody kid." "Oh, ok. And by the way…I know you weren't angry before because you're jealous. There's definitely something else that pissed you off." "How do you know?" "That's simple. 'Cause you're a piss poor liar," John laughed. "Oh, well this is really important. I didn't wanna tell your sister yet. She's not gonna believe me," I sighed. "Well tell me what's up," he said. "Cody's a rapist. 2 years ago he beat my sister and then he raped her," I replied.
John's jaw dropped in shock. His eyes widened.
"John, we can't let Ava see him. I don't need her to get raped by that asshole…and neither do you. John, please PLEASE don't let her go near him," I begged. "Man, I wish I could…but me and Ava have a deal that if she doesn't bother me when I'm playing video games I'll give her all the freedom she needs." "What kind of stupid bet is that?" I laughed a little. "Even if I did tell her to stay away from him…she wouldn't listen…DAMMIT! I can't believe this bullshit!" John screamed.
We stopped talking for a minute. We both listened closely to hear Ava's voice from upstairs. She must've been on the phone with someone. I gulped when I hear her laugh an extremely flirty laugh. I knew exactly who she was talking to. CODY.
Then she stopped talking and skipped down the stairs. She was still dressed in her jeans and shirt from before. She had on a pair of Uggs.
"Who was that on the phone, and where are you going?" I demanded. "Jeez, Randy, calm down. It was just Cody," she replied. "What did he WANT?" I hissed. "He wants me to go to his house for a little while. He said he has something he wants to show me."
