The next week went by fast and we were all packed and ready to leave for Vegas. I had had a bad week. Trey threatened to kill me twice and I had ended up sleeping in Tej bed three times because of nightmares. Dom had been great; he took me shopping and bought me tons of stuff. We loaded up the three cars we decided to take, Dom's, Brian's, and Tej's. Dom, Letty, and Vince in one car, Brian, Mia and Leon in another, and Tej, Rome, Jesse and I in Tej's in his Cadillac Escalade. It was an eight hour drive and I was glad I was in the escalade, because there was lots of room and a TV. "Hey girl," Brooke came into my room an hour before we were about to leave, "I brought these for you." She handed me a bottle.

"What is it?" I asked curiously.

"It's speed, well not exactly, but it's like it. I know that you have been depressed and not sleeping well since the party and this is the shit I use to take to get me through the day," Julia answered. "It's strong so only take one and not with caffeine."

"Thanks a lot," I said putting the bottle in my purse just as Leon came in my room.

"Hey baby girl, which shirt do you like better?" he asked me holding up a green jersey and a blue one.

"That one," I pointed to the green one. The guys always came and asked me stupid questions about what they should wear.

"So Brooke, are you coming to Vegas with us?" Leon asked.

"Oh my god Brooke you should, go home and pack. We're leaving in an hour," I said and she started to disagree, "no, no argument, go and meet us back here." I pushed her out the door. I knew that her parents didn't pay any attention to her, but I figured she probably loose her job, guess she'll have to work with us. "Don't worry Leon. I'll tell her to go in the car with you." I told him and pushed him out the door. I could tell Leon was developing a thing for her, which was fine by me because I love Brooke, she saved me from Trey and I couldn't ask for a better best friend. After I kicked everybody out I went into the bathroom got a drink of water and took one of the pills.

'Hey baby sister you ready to go," Dom came into me room and asked me.

"Yeah Brooke is coming with, ok?" I asked him.

"I was wondering when you were going to ask," Dom said, "She's been here all this week." Its true Brooke had been there every night after she got out of work. She spent 4 nights on our couch or Leon's room I'm not sure.

"I know, I hope you don't mind, she's got it rough at home."

"You know I don't," Dom told me, "ok let's get going." We walked downstairs to see everybody sitting in the living room. "First one to Vegas gets a thousand dollars." Dom told every one and we all rushed to get in the cars because we wanted to win the race. I saw Brooke get in the car with Leon, Brian, and Mia. It made me smile, 'at least she's happy now' I thought to myself, 'maybe one day I will be too'.

So we are on our way we've been in the car an hour and I've already talked Tej, Rome, and Jesse's ears off. Those pills were really kicking in. "and then this girl fell down the stairs," I told them and started laughing at my own story.

"Damn Lexy, are you on crack or something that's the tenth story you have told us since this trip started?" Rome asked.

"No, no Roman Pierce I'm just very hyper," I lied. God I seemed to be lying a lot. I seemed to be tangled in a web of lies. "You know what I'll just shut up and go to sleep." I told them and laid my head on Jesse's lap.

"Finally," Rome said. I sat back up a minute later.

"I can't sleep," I said.

"Keep trying," Tej told me slightly annoyed. I laid back down on Jesse's lap and he played with my hair. I was half asleep when Jesse said,

"What the hell happened?" 'Shit', I thought to myself, 'he found where Trey cut me on the neck'.

"What?" I asked sitting up, pretending to be confused.

"What the hell happened to your neck?" Jesse said and I looked up front to see Rome looking at me and Tej looking in the rear view mirror at us.

"Oh, it was nothing I got scratched by Brooke's cat at her house yesterday," I lied again. 'Maybe I should stop lying', I thought

"Rome look at this," Jesse said turning my head so Rome could see, "doesn't this look like it was done with a knife?' Jesse was suspicious of Trey since that day he met him at my school.

"What happened?" Tej asked, "Baby doll tell me what happened or I will have to pull this car over." 'Ok I guess I got to tell them the truth because I'm so sick of lying, but there going to be mad' I told myself.

"Ok, keep this between the four of us, Trey did it," I answered and sighed in relief that the truth was finally out.

"WHAT," all three guys said at once, "I'm going to kill him."

"Alexia, tell me the truth, did he um, did he rape you?" Jesse asked quietly. I looked at my feet and nodded my head. I felt so ashamed. I couldn't figure out how he knew that Trey had raped me, maybe I talked in my sleep.

"I knew it," Tej said.

"You did?" I asked and Jesse put his arm around me.

"One of my friend in Miami, use to have the same nightmares and act the same way you did about them, till one night she was wasted and told me what her boyfriend did to her. I figured that jackass was hurting you," Tej answered, "Listen you need to tell Dom, that's not in option. I'm telling you that you need too. If you don't we will."

"Ok, ok, I will but after we get back from Vegas. I don't want to ruin Mia and Brian's wedding," I sighed and they agreed.
