The next morning at the Sutherlands

Kirsty lied on her bed going over and over things in her head. She was in shock but had managed to keep it a secret and only tell Seb. Kirsty and Seb had spent all day talking about it. Seb didn't know what to think. His best friend had had sex with his ex-girlfriend, while she was drunk. He had put alcohol in her drink and practically seduced her. For the first time in ages Kirstys mind was not on Kane.

Kirsty heard a knock on her door, it was Seb. She didn't say anything, but Seb came in anyway. He sat down on Kirstys bed and gave her a huge hug. Kirsty just put her legs to her chest and held herself tight. This experience has obviously made her VERY insecure about herself.

"Kirst...i really think that you need to tell somebody about this. Nick thinks he has got away with it and is going out with Jade." Seb said

"Yea, but..it wasn't like I stopped him, was it?" Kirsty replied

"Yea, but he put vodka in your drink and made you...?" Seb started.

Kirsty stared at him. He was being like an older, protective brother. Kirsty thought hard about what Seb was saying but just couldn't see his point of view.

"I just don't understand what youre saying, I want to tell everyone. But im just afraid that Nick will turn it back on me and say that i..you know!" Kirsty said

"Well..Kirst, its worth a try and anyway your family wont give up on this. They know that your honest and that you wouldn't lie about Nick. I mean all 4 of us used to be best friends."

"I suppose" Kirsty started to cry. "I don't know what to do. I want to see Kane. Tell him what has happened. But he'll just show his bad side and then...?"

Seb looked at Kirsty, he had an idea.

"Do you want me to speak to Kane. Tell him what has happened. Then you can tell your parents and Jade. I think that will be best. This thing that has happened is near to rape. Infact worse than rape. You've got to tell them sooner or later. If you tell them later then they will wonder why you didn't tell them earlier and that will make them less likely to believe you!" Seb said.

"Would you do that? Speak to Kane for me? Tell him that I am fine and that everything is all under control. Ill tell my family when you tell Kane, I suppose ill have to tell them about him, won I?"

"Yea, I think you will. Ill go now and tell Kane, where will he be?"

"At the Whalf probably or if not then he'll be be at that City Hall looking at the Tafe stuff!" Kirsty replied

"Ok. By the way. I spoke to Jade. Shes worried about you. You didn't talk to her all last night apparently. Also, shes on a study day today so Nicks not coming round!" Seb gave Kirsty a reassuring smile then headed out the door. He wondered what Kane will do when he sees Seb. Will he try and start a fight on with him, thinking that he had something to do with Kirstys experience? Will he believe him? Or will he demand to see Kirsty and start a riot at the Sutherland household.

Kirsty however, was thinking how her family, and mostly how Jade will react. Will they phone the police?Will they press charges against Nick? Will they actually believe Kirsty?

Who knows?????????But Seb and Kirsty were just about to find out!
