Chapter 39-

"Cecilia I need to talk to you its very important." Ruthie was now talking to Cecilia. It had been a week since the party. Everything was eating away at her. She really needed to talk to Cecilia.

"Sure Ruthie what's up?" Cecilia said as they walked away from the family so they could talk.

"Well theres a lot."

"Ok like what."

"Well first off. You know Jason right my boyfriend." Cecilia knodded. "Well you know his brother Marshall right?" Cecilia had a look on her face that Ruthie knew what was up.

"Have you ever talked to Marshall?" Cecilia knodded again.

"Have you?" She asked Ruthie.

"Yea. Ok and are you sure that your baby is Simon's."

"He told you didn't he? What did he say to you?" Cecilia asked.

"Just answer my question first."

"No. I'm not sure. Ruthie what did he tell you? When did he tell you this?"

"He told me at a party. Cecilia did he rape you too?" Ruthie asked.

"Too??"

"Yea. He raped me. He told me that he had to ask me something and he made me go upstairs with him. I go upstairs and try to turn on the light but he keeps it off. Then he starts kissing me and I try to get away from him but he wont let me go. And then he rapes me. And when he was done he sat there and threatened me. He said if I told anyone then he would hurt me and he would hurt Simon too. And then he was like Simon thinks the baby is his. Well it aint I had sex with Cecilia and I didn't know what to say. Cecilia did he rape you?"

Cecilia was now crying. "Yea. He did almost the same thing to me. But it wasn't at a party. Ruthie. Did he hit you at all? At all."

"No. He didn't hit me but he hurt me like when he start on me and pushed me down onto the bed and everything."

"Ruthie have you told anyone about this?"

"No. No one but you."

"You know we have to tell Simon soon."

"I know but I don't want Simon to get hurt. I love him so much."

"I know so do I. But we have to."

"OK. But when?"

"Not now. We got to wait. How about once we get out of this parent center place. I have this feeling right now that we will be out of here sooner than we think but I don't know."

"Ok."

"OK and Ruthie promise me that you wont tell anyone about this ok. Its our little secret."

"Ok. Promise. Cecilia. I think that you and Simon should stay together forever. Like get married and have little kids."

"I don't want to leave Simon. I want to spend my life with him." Cecilia dried her tears.

They both got up and walked back to the family smiling.
