Chapter 5



Maddy

1 week before Horizon

Maddy loved her life and all the girls at her school were jealous of her. She loved her parents, was popular and did well in school.

The music was making the ground shake, three neighbours had already complained about it, but that wasn't stopping the party. Maddy and her many friends were walking around flirting with guys and dancing, having the times of their lives.

As Maddy started dancing to her favourite song, a guy she hadn't seen before walked up to her.

"Hey, I'm Mark, I got you a drink." He had the cutest smile Maddy had ever seen and she was flattered so she took the drink and smiled back.

"God your beautiful" He flirted and Maddy beamed at him. She was now hooked and Mark knew it.

They sat down on a couch and with Maddy drinking the coke. After a few minutes of talking, Mark saw that she'd finished the drink.

"You wanna dance?"

"Sure."

Maddy stood up, then she suddenly felt dizzy and she started to fall, but Mark caught her.

"You'd better lie down" He said and led her up stair and into a bedroom, closing the door behind them.

Maddy woke up shivering. Her back was sore. She slowly sat up and looked around, she was lying in a park and it was early in the morning. She slowly got up, confused; she couldn't remember anything from the night before. She was all stiff and her inner thighs and higher was aching. She walked home bewildered.

No one was home when she got home, she walked to her room and passed a mirror and stared at her reflection. She has small bruises all over her neck.

They were hickies.

She ran to her room and took off her top; she had bruises all over her chest and breasts. She knew what had happened. She didn't even need to see the bruises between her legs and the dried blood.

She ran to the toilet and threw up, remembering her begging him to stop, her screaming out, knowing no one could hear her.

The music had been too loud.

Maddy looked up and saw a packet a Panadol; she stood up and opened it. There was enough. She'd had enough. She swallowed the pills and went to bed, to fall into a deep sleep. She hoped her parents wouldn't be mad.
