Jumper

A/N: i started this yeserday, but inspiration didn't find me, and then, I went to see the new Pirates movie which devoured my night. Caitlyn's Opinion: One thumb up, one thumb down. I love Johnny Depp, and God knows Keira is the devil in a dangerously hot body, but still, too long, too many little plots, and woe to anyone who went to the bathroom during the movie, you would have missed like another quarter of the plot. Anyway... Thanks to my reviewers, I'm 3 away from 100, and I'm excited as hell. Thanks also to my readers you guys rock. --Enjoy--

Wow. People in Ohio never danced like this. I'd only seen stuff like this in movies and music videos, and even then, I didn't think that actually happened. I mean, think about it. You and hundreds of complete strangers packed into a small room that's way too hot and pushing up against each other like you were old friends or something. It was a disturbing concept, but I saw Ashley's eyes glaze over as she surveyed the party, her hand still on mine as we weaved throughout the massive crowd. We arrived at the front, and I heard something about "Aiden", "saying hi", and "shaking our asses". Ash was a pretty heavy drinker, she'd gone through 4 cups of beer already in the last five minutes, and I was beginning to worry about how we were going to get home. She shoved me a cup, and I quickly downed it, trying to imitate her, only to bend over, that was one of the nastiest things I'd ever tasted. Suddenly, a guy showed up out of nowhere, and I had a sinking feeling that this was Aiden. He was tall, anywhere from 6'2 to like 6'4, he was shirtless, and part of his jeans were missing. He was covered in liquid, and quickly bent over to bear hug her and spin her around before setting her down. We exchanged hellos, and I could already see him undressing me with his eyes. Boys. He eventually wandered off, after a group of girls, leaving me and Ash again.

She grabbed my hand, and before I knew it, we were in the middle of the blob, and Ashley was getting really close. Suddenly, I found courage, and leaned into her, putting my mouth next to her ear, and I could feel her jump.

"How about that dance lesson?"

I pulled back, waiting for her to move, only to find her mouth now near mine, and I shared a similar shiver as I felt her breath dangerously close to my face.

"Thought you'd never ask."

She grabbed me and pulled me into her, her hands resting on my hips as we tried to catch up with the beat. I couldn't really concentrate on what she was trying to teach me, just what she was doing to try and teach me. We eventually got it, and to my great happiness, I found myself and Ashley being pushed together incredibly hard until I could have safely picked her pockets without moving anything else but my fingers. The concept of this kind of dancing was disgusting to me, but I found myself strangely addicted, and all I wanted was another dance song, another loud and heavy bass line so me and Ash could continue whatever it was we were doing. But, I soon found myself thirsty, and I began craving beer for some odd reason. I'm sure this is how alcoholism starts. I quickly excused myself and made my way over to the massive store of alcohol, trying to figure out what I wanted. I finally decided on one cup of beer, a shot of Tequila, and half a glass of Vodka. My throat was on fire, and the room and people were spinning like crazy around me. I found my already bad coordination ten times worse, me crashing into countless people, slurring out apologies.

I finally found Ash, but felt jealousy surge through me like electricity when I saw her with another girl. I had thought that what me and her had been doing was bad enough, but what she was doing with Ash infuriated me, if anyone was going to do that to her, it would be me. I saw Ash find me, and beckon me with her finger, her eyes locked onto me as I felt her intensity from her gaze hit me full force. I knew she was just trying to play around with me, but it got me angry. I knew people like her, and I distanced myself as far as possible, but I'd fallen for one of the people that I swore I never would. It just bothers me how people are so self-confident and cocky that they think they have a right to mess around with other peoples emotions and lead them on and suddenly just lose interest with them before moving onto someone else hotter. I don't know, just my drunken two cents about it.

Anyway, I was not to be out-done, so I grabbed the nearest person, praying it was a hot one, to find a stone-drunk Aiden to be the one I grabbed. I didn't lose a beat, and I immediately pressed myself into him, causing him to drop whatever excess of alcohol he was carrying and push himself harder onto me, his hands running wildly all over me. To say the least, I felt disgusting, but I had to lead Ash on a little myself. I saw her face as soon as I grabbed Aiden, and I knew she was pissed. She made several attempts to get away from the girl, but she was trapped, and before I knew it, I was caught up in a storm of dancing and free flowing beer. Hours ticked off, and I was getting what was probably my tenth or so cup of beer when I felt hands on my hips in a manner similar to Ash's. I grinned and turned around, only to find another guy, sweaty, and with his clothes half ripped off. He leaned up to me, his breath playing over my ear as Ashley's had, but his voice had no thrilling effect on me whatsoever.

"Hey beautiful, wanna dance?"

"No, I think I'm done for the night actually."

"Aw, come on, just one dance."

"No, I'm good."

His hands suddenly clamped down on mine, and my heart nearly stopped. He leaned back down to my ear, his breath now fast and hard, and his voice low.

"I'm askin nicely blondie, c'mon."

He was pushing up against me, in an apparent attempt to get me convinced, but I just became more disgusted.

"No thanks, now I have to go."

He clenched his hands again, and I gasped out in pain, his fingernails digging into my skin.

"Come on now, don't make me ask again."

I tried to pull away, but he just held on tighter (if possible), and almost as if on cue, three huge guys emerged from the crowd and surrounded us.

"Ok, fine, play hard to get, I like that too."

He jerked his head to the guys and half dragged/carried me to the door in the back. I screamed, but it was drowned out by the bass. My heart was roaring in my ears, and it probably snapped all my ribs into pieces it was beating so hard. I was terrified, I tried to calm down and think rationally, but my brain wouldn't stop moving. They dragged me through a dimly lit room into a smaller one, barely enough room for two people, let alone five people. They shoved me against the wall, and I found my lips under attack by a pair of clumsy lips. I tried to push him off, but he only kissed me harder, and I swear I tasted blood. He finally drew back, and I was shaking hard. My mind was racing to what was about to happen, but I tried to slow it down, drawing pictures of Ash into my head. Just think it's Ash. Just imagine that it's Ashley doing this. That you want to do this, that you planned it. By now I was crying, I could feel the warm tears slide down my face, and I slid to the floor as the four guys surrounded me. The one who had kissed me hauled me up roughly, slapping me in an attempt to make me stop me crying, but failing miserably. My face was numb as he continued to assault me while his gorrila friends watched.

"C'mon baby, your makin this harder then it has to be. Just tell me you want me."

He pushed into me, his hands digging painfully into my sides, his hands wandering to the bottom of my shirt. I pushed his hands down, but he slugged me in the face, practically knocking me out. It's Ash, it's Ash, we wanted this, this isn't happening oh my God... His hands had found themselves under it, his hands playing over my skin. They were so rough, and my body involuntarily shook under his touch. He mistaked it for something else, and continued upwards, taking my shirt with it. I was sobbing hysterically, and shaking violently. My throat burned from the beer and screaming as his hands went higher and higher until...

"BACK THE FUCK UP NOW!!!"

The voice of an angel... My angel. I smiled as I saw her framed by a dim light. Her eyes were flashing, and she looked ready to rip someones throat out. The goons turned to face her, confused looks on their faces.

"And who the hell are you?"

"Boy, your about to find out."

I didn't even see her move, and apparently neither did the guys, because seconds later, two were hunched on the ground, yelling in pain as she proceeded to kick one in the stomach before slamming into his face with her fist, drop-kicking him and pounding into his head with her foot. The one who had been doing all the touching was on top of her, dragging her to floor as he hit her repeatedly in the face. She kicked him the stomach, knocking the air out of him and pushing off as she upper-cut him, sending him flying to the wall, as she moved in, kicking and punching him until he was bruised and bleeding profusely. She drew back for another set of kicks, when she noticed me watching. She dropped her foot, looking at me, almost shocked as what she was seeing. I saw her left hand ball into a fist tight enough to draw blood as she prepared to beat the crap out of the guy.

"Stop!"

I wasn't even aware I'd spoken, but she did stop, and quickly ran over to me.

"Spence! Hold on, I'll get you help, you just gotta hold on."

She threw my arm around her shoulder and dragged me out of the room and into the dance floor, which was littered with passed out bodies and hundreds of empty bottles, cups, and cans. We were halfway out to her car when it hit me. I'd almost been raped. My body convulsed, and before I knew it, I was sobbing wildly and collapsed on the pavement outside. The rain was pouring, and it felt so cold against my hot skin. I curled up into a ball on the sidewalk, reveling in the cold, trying to stop crying, only to continue harder. Suddenly, I was enveloped in a warmth, and I didn't do anything but move towards it, trying to make sense of the wildly spinning world. The arms just held on tighter, and the next thing I knew, I was up in the air, in a car, and then in a bed somewhere. I might have tried to mutter something, but darkness suddenly seized me, and then... nothing.

A/N: Another chapter coming in maybe 40 minutes, dunno. One of the darker chapters I've written, tell me if it turned out all right.
