Chapter 17 - Numb

Jude lay on the bed almost completely bare and the other two girls, Sarah and some other ditz, were instructed to also get on the bed and start stripping. Jude couldn't move, she felt numb and still could barely see anything. The light wasn't on but there were now a few candles illuminating the room.

"Now do as you're told Harrison, and you won't get hurt," Jake whispered in her ear. His warm breath tickled it and she moved her head to the side, wishing he would go away.

Jake stripped himself of his shirt and got on top of Jude, ignoring the groans of pain he was getting from her. He held on to her hips firmly and brought his head to her neck. He sucked on it and bit down, causing her to flinch. She couln't stop him, she could barely even see him. The other guys took Jake's lead and did the same to Sarah and the other girl, known as Mimi.

The two remaining guys were sitting out of view of the camera. One was waiting his turn, his act was later and the other guy was actually working the video camera.

"Ow," Jude groaned, barely a whisper. Jake was digging his nails into her theighs now, not caring what affect he would have on her, he continued to do so.

Meanwhile-

"Look, not right now." Tommy protested, pushing through the hormonal girls. They just kept coming back, they were like mosquitos, they just wouldn't go away.

"Jude!" Tommy called out into the loud music, he didn't think she'd be able to hear him, but it was worth a try. And of course, she didn't answer.

"Tommy Q, Will you marry me?" One of the girls asked. He looked down at her, fairly amused but immediately washed his thoughts away and turned his attention back to the crowd around him.

"Jude!" He tried again. Still no answer, not from her anyway.

"Tom?"

Meanwhile -

Jake's hands wandered all over her body, she didn't even feel him anymore. He had touched her everywhere possible, but she couldn't feel. Everything imaginable was going through her head. She wanted to cry, scream, and punch this guy for touching her, for holding her, for treating her like she was a slut. But she couldn't. That made it ten times worse.

"Now the fun begins.." Jake whispered, trailing kisses down her stomach and his fingers brushed a sensative spot right at the top of her theigh.

Meanwhile -

Tommy turned to face a young guy leaning against the wall next to the room Jude was in. His face was flushed and he looked like he was about to break at any minute.

"Who are you?" Tommy asked, pushing another girl out of his way and walking toward the boy.

"Daren. Look, are you looking for Jude?" He asked, his voice shaking a little. This made Tommy nervous.

"Is she here?" Tommy asked, hopeful.

"Look man, shes in trouble.." Daren said, looking toward the door to the room. Tommy's eyes followed the kid's.

"She in there?" Tommy asked, taking a step toward the door. Daren quickly stepped in front of Tommy.

"You don't want to go in there." He said, still shaking.

"Is Jude in there?"

"Yeah,.. but-"

Tommy cut him off by pushing him aside and opening the door. Surprisingly it wasn't locked.

His eyes widened and his hands balled into fists once he caught sight of the scene ahead. Jake had his hands on Jude's hips and his thumbs were brushing against Jude where Tommy knew she wouldn't allow anyone to touch.

"I suggest you get your hands off of her," Tommy said, his teeth clenched. He closed the door behind him. Jake chuckled a bit and kissed Jude on the lips passionately, but quickly before motioning for the man controling the camera to shut it off and then he got up and turned toward Tommy.

"Look pretty boy, I don't think you were invited." He said, smirking. Tommy ignored the creep and kept his eyes on Jude. She was almost completely naked before his eyes, but he wasn't even thinking about that. He watched her try to push herself up but fall back down. She even groaned Tommy's name which almost brought tears to his eyes.

"Are you listening ass hole? I said you weren't invited. Leave before I make you leave." Jake said, walking toward Tommy and staring down at him as if trying to intimidate him. Sure this kid was taller, but obviously he wasn't too wise. Tommy was definitely not in the mood for this.

"Look, kid. One step closer and you'll wish you and your little wannabe friends had never even learned the meaning of the word 'internet'" Tommy said, seeing the video camera hooked up to the computer.

Jake narrowed his eyes and looked into Tommy's piercing blue ones. Tommy glared back. After a few minutes of silence Jake broke eye contact and opened the door.

"Come on, the slut ain't even worth it," Jake said to the other guys and girls. The guys followed. Tommy laughed angrily. The girls started to come by him and one of them caught his eye.

"Sarah?" He grabbed her arm, not allowing her to get out. He closed the door and pulled her toward the bed.

"Jesus.." Tommy said, eyeing Jude's state. Her lip was bloody and he saw all the cuts on her arm, they were finally exposed. There were even some cuts on her legs that he had guessed no one even knew about.

"Tommy.." She groaned, trying to pull her arms up to cover herself, but she was too weak. Sarah rolled her eyes.

His eyes were full of hurt, concern, and anger as he pulled her shirt back over her head, not even worrying about her bra, as long as she was covered. He didn't take the time to mess with her pants, he just wrapped the sheet around her and picked her up bridal style.

"Grab her stuff," Tommy said to Sarah, referring to her bra and pants. Sarah sighed, annoyed and did as she was told..
