Chapter Three

Breaking Down

Dana woke up in the boy's dorm. Logan had taken her back there. She hadn't spoken to Chase, Michael, or Logan since the "incident" as she referred to it. She looked around the room to find no one there and sat up and started to cry. It had been her first time, she hadn't wanted some strange man to wreck it for her. She could never get it back. She was now terrified of walking alone on the campus of PCA. Dana let the tears pour down her face. She didn't think anyone was listening. She curled up in a ball under her covers and sobbed. She was crying too loud to hear someone open the door.

Logan entered his dorm after having breakfast and stood there surprised. "Is that Dana Cruz…….crying?" He thought to himself feeling terrible for what had happened to her.

"Dana?" Logan asked cautiously.

Dana's eyes bugged underneath the covers. "Oh my god, he heard me cry. He's going to tell everyone and he and everyone else will make fun of me." Dana thought to herself wiping her eyes and sitting up pulling the covers off of her.

"No, I wasn't crying." Dana said upset.

"Come on Dana, you can tell me, I won't tell anyone and even if I did no one would make fun of you. What happened to you last night was terrible and you have the right to be upset about it." Logan stated.

Dana rolled her eyes and got out of bed and grabbed her shoes.

"Where are you going?" Logan questioned.

"Back to my room, I'm going to take a shower then go to class." Dana replied.

"It's Saturday." Logan said.

"Oh." Dana said, she was too upset to remember what day it was. "Whatever." She added. She stomped out of the boy's dorm passing Chase and Michael walking back from breakfast.

Dana quickly ran across PCA campus, even though it was daylight and plenty of people were outside, it still scared her to be there. She entered room 101 and was instantly annoyed when she saw Nicole and Zoey sitting on the floor talking.

"Hey Dana, you ok?" Zoey asked her red eyed roommate.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Dana snapped.

"You look like you've been crying. I mean I would cry if I was raped, wouldn't you Zo?" Nicole asked.

Zoey nodded rolling her eyes at the always ditzy Nicole.

"I haven't been crying. I'm fine just leave me alone." Dana grabbed her clothes and went into the girl's bathroom to take a shower.

Later on the gang decided they'd see a movie. They invited Dana along, not knowing that she was terrified to go outside, especially at night, even if it was with her friends. Everyone was in the girl's dorm.

"Hey Dana, wanna come to the movies with all of us?" Chase asked gesturing towards everyone.

"Um, thanks but I have a really bad headache and I'd really like to rest." Dana lied.

Everyone exchanged glances.

"Oh, ok, well do you want us to stay with you, I mean since you seem upset about last night?" Michael asked Dana.

"No, I'm fine! Can't everyone just leave me alone already! I mean really!" Dana yelled.

"Dana, we're your friends, you don't need to pretend everything's ok, 'cause we know it's not. Please, just talk to us!" Zoey said.

"Yeah, Dana, please." Nicole added.

"I'm fine, I got raped, so what!" Dana said.

"You're not fine! What if you're pregnant or you have an STD or something! Rape is a crime Dana, we want to tell the Dean but we were waiting to see if you would." Logan told Dana.

"What no! I don't have an STD and I'm definitely not pregnant! And no! I absolutely do NOT want to tell the Dean! Now just leave me alone already." Dana yelled back at Logan, tears brimming in the corners of her eyes.

"Dana." Logan said reaching out and touching her arm. "Talk to us." He said.

Dana pulled away from him and left the room. They heard the door slam on the girl's bathroom. Zoey and Nicole decided they'd give her time to herself and they all went to the movie.

When they all came back they went back to room 101 to find Dana flipping through a magazine and listening to her I-Pod. They decided not to bug her and everyone went to bed. Dana tried to look tough on the outside for everyone, but really, she was crying on the inside.

AN: I think I might make Dana pregnant and Logan helps out. I know I have a lot of stories where people get pregnant, Emma in Degrassi, Casey in Life with Derek, and Taylor in HSM! Lol, but Idk it makes a good story line, please review with ideas!! Thanks to everyone who has!
