(Monday) Bexley was very scared to goto school becau se she knew that her rapist would be there, watching her every move. And what scared her is that Reese hasn't shown up to school which is odd because she never misses a day of school.

Two-Bit was worried too beca use Reese never came home after seeing Bexley the other day. Two-Bit went to school to keep Bexley safe along with Ponyboy.

Bexley couldn't stop looking over her shoulder each time she was in another cdass. However, her paranoia came true when she was in hallway to go to her next class.

As she stood at her locker, she froze when she felt hot breath at the nape of her neck "Hey there, Bexley," Roy said, breathing down her neck.

Bexley felt her entire body shaking when she heard that voice. "Had fun on Friday. l intend to do it again," he said, making her shiver. She refused to look at him. She squeezed her eyes shut and held her

breath.

"Aw, come on. You can look at me. Open those pretty eyes of yours," he said, touching her on the shoulder to tum her around. "Get off of me! Leave me alone!"she screamed, pushing him back.

"HEY GET AWAY FROM HER!" Two-Bit shouted, hearing Bexley's peril. Two-Bit punched the soc in the face and pushed him away from Bexley. Ponyboy was with him and he stood in front of his frigtened sister.

Ponyboy was with him and he stood in front of his frigtened sister. "You get the fuck out of here right now, you soc scum!' he scowled, keeping Bexley behind him. Roy smiled lke a psychopath, wiping the

blood from his nose. "This isnt over, you greaseballs," Roy said before turning around and leaving. "You okay? Did he touch you?" Ponyboy asked, turning around to face her.

Bexley opened her eyes and saw her brother and friend there withher. "He.. He touched my shoulder... He wanted me to.. to look at him," Bexley said, her entire body shaking.

Ponyboy looked at Two-Bit, seeing the anger in his eyes. "We need to get her home, Two-Bit," he said.

"Good idea. I can't risk that bastard getting ahold of her again. Plus, I gotta see if Reese is home," Two-Bit agreed. Luckily, it was the last period so Two-Bit was able to get her out of there, thanks to Darry.

Two-Bit made the excuse that she had thrown up during class and she needed to go home. Two-Bit drove Bexley home. The whole time, she was shaking in a ball, the same way when Two-Bit had found her the night that it all happened.

He was pretty sure the Soc he saved her from was the guy who did it. He even saw the look on that bastards face, it was as if he knew that Two-Bit was Reese's big brother.

Two-Bit was scared that that bastard had done something with her, which if he did,

Two-Bit wouldn't hesitate to choke the life out of that soc until he killed him.

He stopped in front of the Curtis house.

"Th-Thanks, Two-Bit," she quivered, her heart still pounding in her ears. "No problem, Little Sister. Look, if you hear from Reese, please let me know. My mom and I are worried about her, he asked.

"Okay, I- I will," she said, opening the car door. Before she stepped out, Two-Bit pulled her into a hug. Bexley froze for a moment, because she rarely gets hugged by him.

"Take care yourself, you hear me? I don't want anything to happen to you," he

whispered.

She hugged him back, her body relaxing a bit. "Okay," she said, squeezing onto her older friend. "If there's anything you need or if you see my sister, don't hesitate to come over," Two-Bit said, feeling tears rise in his eyes, which he quickly blinked to make them go away.

They pull apart and Bexley steps out of the battered car with her backpack. Two-Bit waited until she went inside before he drove away.


Nobody was home since both Soda and Darry had to work and Ponyboy was still at school. So it was just her, which made her anxious. But she thought of that soc and how he didn't know where she lived at so she was safe, at least that's what she thought.

At five PM, she went outside to smoke a cigarette, which helped calmed her nerves. As she sat on the porch, she thought she heard something coming from behind a tree, which unnerved her.

A big part of her was telling her to not go investigate it, but she needed to see what was making that sound. She puts her cigarette out and slowly got up and walked over to where the sound was coming from.

However, she peeked around the bush, there wasn't anything there. "I'm losing my mind, she sighed, letting go of the breath that she was holding. However, when she turned around, she felt a sharp needle being driven into her neck.

"No.. No please.." she cried, feeling her entire body become heavy and weak. Her head started spinning, stars flooding her vision. She turned her neck so she could look up at who drugged her, but her vision was so blurry that she couldn't see who it was.

But what she could see was that it was a man towering over her. She saw those cold yet playful eyes for a moment before blacking out, falling to the ground.
