Erica Miller reached the top of the stairs and heard Lauren screaming at someone, quickening her pace she reach the door and opened it only to realize that Lauren was only arguing at herself. She'd seen the fear in her sister's eyes but, she was in utter shock as she watched her normally well put together sister berating herself. Erica threw everything she had down by the front door as she went Lauren's side.

* It was going to be hell around here for a while* Erica thought as she sat down beside of her sister . It was still real soon after but, she knew Lauren needed to talk to someone and she knew Lauren well enough to know she would never talk to the lady rape crisis sent last night . I know the center doesn't want me to be Laurens counselor but, I just can't sit here and see her go through this by herself. Erica still had the feeling that something wasn't adding up right. *

Lauren Sat in the corner tears freely flowing out of the already red , puffy eyes thinking about every thing she'd been through the last two days and how much she regretted the choices she made that day. The one to remain in her classroom. Lauren just screamed at the top of her lungs once again. It wasn't her fault damn it and she shouldn't feel she deserved it . Lauren Davis felt the damn break as all the insecurity of her past resurfaced . It was then that she picked up a vase and threw it barely massing her sister who'd ducked behind a door. Lauren Davis felt good for the first time since this had all happened she was begriming to feel somewhat like herself again but she knew from experience that all this would take time . Lauren sat down on the couch with a smile on her face . She had finally be able to express the anger inside of her. Damn she though maybe I need to go down to the store and buy some things just to throw only this time I'll have to get something that I can't do harm with.

Erica had decided it was now safe to leave the bedroom and ventured out to see the smile on Lauren's face and was overjoyed but, also knew that it was probably just momentary thing. Erica also knew that a single step was a good thing and was a start to her healing. Erica was also worried out the two men who were such a big part of her life . How were they handling this she knew that Harry was a viticm of this act too and he wouldn't talk about any of it. He'd never said a word but, it was eating him up and you could see that. Erica was also worried about Mark who she knew was worried about all of them. She was also afraid of what these two would do if they every found out who had done this. Erica knew that both of these two had so much in common and the only thing that couldn't live with was seeing women in pain , pain of any kind. She also knew these two would stand behind Lauren. She thought briefly of what Danny Hanson had said to her just that morning.

An hour later a phone call came in the police were on the line telling them that Daniel Evans was supect number1 in the whole thing and that he'd admitted to it and that all the samples the doctors had taken during Lauren's phycial exam confirmed it. This time there would be a conviction she thought. There was one still left but, not for long if what there saying is true he wouldn't be out there long. What is didn't know was that there was a thrid peerson there, the woman who would have killed her and damn near did.
