Tomorrow, they had to go back to school. Things were going to be hard.
Jason was older than she was so
they wouldn't see each other much, if at all. But they could try to meet up somehow and then her mother
and Ric wouldn't affect them. Of course, they'd have to steer clear of A.J. and his few, emphasis on FEW,
friends. She sat on her bed crying as she had since he started to sing to her. At this memory, she closed her
eyes and started to sway gently, lipping the words going through her mind, Dwelling on the line
*And the moment that I can feel that you feel that way too, is when I fall in love with you*
She could almost feel his arms around her and with this comfort, her crying ceased and she lay down.

"Courtney, Courtney!" she heard, shaking her from her slumber. There stood Jason. "Baby! What are you
doing here?" she asked with a smile. He pushed her down. "Step off bitch!" he said. "Jason, what the hell is
going on?" she asked. He didn't bother answering at first. Then he did, but not with words. The hard slap
across her cheek spoke for itself. She whimpered in pain and fear, and started sobbing. He grabbed her
ponytail and drug her down the hall. "JASON! NO! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?" she
screamed in sobs. He threw her. Next thing she knew he was straddling her, and a heavy hand swiped the
other side of her face. She couldn't understand, it went against everything that she thought she knew. He
then continued to heave his fist into her stomach, causing her to cough up blood. He jammed his knuckles
to her teeth, loosening one and causing her to dislocate her jaw. As he continued to beat her, she started to
feel herself drifting away.
**************************************************************************** **********
"Courtney! Courtney wake-up!" she heard. She opened her eyes and saw Jason's face. She screamed an ear
splitting scream and jumped out of bed and to the other side of the room. Jason looked confused and started
to walk towards her cautiously. She held her fists up, ready to fight. "I'm not going to let you hurt me
again!" she screamed. He was so confused, he would never hurt her. He took a step towards her, not
expecting what came. She grabbed a lamp and hit him over the head knocking him out. She stood over him
for a moment, anger, fear, and adrenaline taking her power to think. She started to run into the living room
when she felt his hand on her shoulder, she instantly grabbed the same bat that she had almost hit Ric with
and held it defensively in her hands. She hadn't heard the phone ringing, until the answering machine
picked up. "Hey Courtney, this is mom, I'm not coming home tonight, your Grandma is sick and so I'm
gonna stay with her, I love you, Bye!" She started to cry, her mom was her last hope. "Courtney, I'd never
hurt you, what is wrong?" he said. "YOU ALREADY HURT ME! STAY AWAY!" she screamed. So he
did the only thing that he could think to do.
