Chapter 9: Trouble in Paradise
A/N: Sorry that it has been so long! Here's an update.
***WARNING: This chapter depicts violent sexual assault. Proceed with caution. If you are queasy or under the age of 16, please consider skipping to the next chapter***
~Another note: I am not trying to endorse or glamorize sexual assault. However, it does unfortunately happen, and I am including it in this story to help empathize with the victim, not glorify the rapist.
After school, Chase headed straight for home. He wanted to complete all his homework and chores so he could give Eve his undivided attention when she finally returned. He was distracted by thoughts of her, so his homework actually took a full ten minutes. Chase chided himself and immersed himself in his household chores, finishing in an hour. After he finished, Davenport summoned him to help with his latest invention. After working for a couple hours, Davenport noticed Chase's fatigue and ordered him to his capsule for a nap.
While Chase was at home, Eve was out gossiping with her friends. They hammered her with questions about Chase, from the more innocent How did you guys meet? to Have you guys had sex yet? Eve answered all their questions truthfully and in detail, much to the other girls' delight. After a while, however, Eve started feeling overwhelmed with the unending tide of prying questions and excused herself to the restroom. Before she made it to her destination, an unfamiliar boy about her age blocked her path. He looked frantic and pleaded, "Please, help me! My friend slid down the stairs out back. He hit his head and won't wake up!" The stranger grabbed Eve's arm and pulled her to the back door. All Eve could do was remain upright.
When the stranger jerked open the backdoor to an alley, Eve paused in horror at the scene before her. At the base of the stairs, a bulky, limp body faced away from the building. Something wet on the back of his head glistened in the lights from the restaurant. Hopefully, her bionics could help her save him.
When she ran over to the boy, she heard the back door slam shut. The other guy had probably left to call an ambulance or something. As Eve knelt by the unconscious teen, she noticed his chest rising and falling, a good sign. She placed her hand on his shoulder and murmured, "It's going to be okay."
Then the guy, whom Eve identified as Trent, grabbed her shoulders and slammed her on to the pavement. She heard her skull hit the pavement with a sickening crack. Dazed, she tried to wiggle free, but he overwhelmed her with his huge size. He straddled her waist , pinned her shoulders down, and ripped off her blouse. She tried to hypnotize him off of her. She stared into his eyes and commanded, "Get off me and go sit on the stairs!" However, her concussion was interfering with her bionics and Trent began to grind against her hips and sloppily trailed kisses from her breast up to her ear.
When he reached her ears, he whispered, "I'll show you how a real man does it, not that scrawny Chase kid." When Eve screamed for help, Trent silenced them with his lips on hers.
Then, Trent's body seized up and collapsed on her.
