Part 13
Time seemed to stop. Tyler froze in place. Reid froze in place. Caleb blinked rapidly as if he were trying to believe what she just said and Pogue decided now would be the best time to take control of the situation, "what do you mean 'your pregnant'?"
"Did I stutter? I'm pregnant, with his-" she pointed at Tyler with a glare that if looks could kill "child".
"But, what?" Tyler asked suddenly, his voice a little louder than anticipated. He couldn't believe this was happening to him. Now of all times, when he was happy, something just had to crush that. Then a thought crossed his mind. What if she was lying?
"Look, let's not do this in the airport, let's go back to the dorms and talk about this rationally. Now co-" her sentence never got finished as her gaze traveled down to Tyler and Reid's entwined hands and her eyes grew wider than normal. Her mouth opened slightly in shock as she took a step back from the situation. Why were they holding hands like that? Were they together?
Reid grinned when he noticed what had shocked Rachel so much. About time they got some revenge.
"What's going on? Are you GAY?!" Rachel screamed at them, her hands grabbing the sides of her hair while her body leaned forward slightly. The random outburst caused passers by to start staring at them, causing Tyler to feel oddly comfortable considering the situation. Reid started to laugh at her while sending Tyler a wink. Caleb and Pogue stood behind them while trying to hide how uncomfortable they felt. Not because their friends hadn't tried to deny the accusation, but more because people were sending them judgmental looks, all of them. Caleb and Pogue looked at each other and took a step away while shaking their heads quite quickly at everybody, hoping they would believe they were not in fact dating.
"Jesus, Rachel. Do you want to announce it a little louder, I don't think China heard you" Reid snapped while sending her a scowl. Was it that much of a big deal?
"Oh my god! You are gay! You're together! Your, your, you butt fuck!" She screeched at them, taking yet another step backwards from them.
"Wow, Rachel, really, your intelligence is just shining at the moment" Reid sighed, running his hand through his hair before latching it back to Tyler's who was looking a little uncomfortable now.
"Excuse me, Miss, but we ask that you either keep your voice down, or we will escort you off the premises. You are causing quite a disturbance" A security guard spoke sternly to her before looking at her with a questioning glance.
"But, you should be telling them that! They are the ones who are gay!" She snapped at him before she charged at Reid, her fingernails dragging down his cheek, breaking a few layers of skin, causing a small trickle of blood to fall "you stole my Tyler!"
"Sir..!" Caleb shouted quickly, jogging forward and holding Reid back before he made any attempt to lash back at her, physically or by using. Neither seemed appropriate at the moment.
"Miss, please come with us" The officer sighed, grabbing Rachel by her wrist and leading her away from the group.
"But it's him!" She screamed at the guard, starting to struggle out of his grasp.
"Miss" The guard spat, wrapping his arms around her waist as other guards ran forward to help.
"He raped me!" She screeched finally.
Everybody stopped. The guards hands were removed from her waist and the other guards running seemed frozen to their spot. Reid felt all the air in his lungs evaporate until he was left chocking. Tyler's eyes widened as the reality of her statement sunk in. He knew Reid didn't do it, but if it went to court, well, Rachel was a good liar, would he really stand a chance? Pogue looked at Caleb and nodded. Now, they were in the shit.
XXXXXXXXXX
"I can't believe it" Reid whispered as he sat on the bed, Tyler taking a seat next to him as Pogue sat down opposite them and Caleb leant against the wall.
"Caleb!" Tyler spoke, panic running throughout him. He couldn't loose Reid, not again, and not to her. He wouldn't allow it. He'd kill her before she took him away.
"I don't exactly know what to do either" Caleb sighed, shaking his head before his gaze fell to the floor. They had no proof he was innocent, other than peoples testimony. Whereas Rachel had the tears, the sad story and the judge's automatic sympathy, even if it was not meant to happen, it did.
"Okay, so this is all we could find" Sarah sighed before her and Kate dropped a bunch of law books on the floor between Pogue, Tyler and Reid.
"Thanks" Reid smiled at them.
"No problem. I just can't believe her. That she would lie about something like this" Sarah whispered and shook her head before going to stand next to Caleb.
"Don't forget about this baby" Kate spat at nobody in particular, she just needed to release the anger she was feeling. How dare she drop this news, lie or not, on Tyler and then promptly accuse Reid of such a thing, "Reid may be a lot of things, but he isn't a rapist!"
"Thanks, Kate" Reid smiled sarcastically at her.
"Any time" She grinned before taking a seat next to Pogue, their problems could wait, Reid's couldn't.
"So, come on Caleb, you're the one going to Harvard. Use that law knowledge" Reid grinned jokingly. Honestly he had no idea what he was going to do. Unless the judge believed that Rachel was a liar, and the only way to make that happen was if her parents were to step forward and tell them what she had told them about Tyler and vice versa, he stood no chance.
"I wish I knew what to do" Caleb sighed, grabbing Sarah's hand for reassurance that he would work it out. He had to; he couldn't let Reid go away for a crime he didn't commit.
"Okay, maybe our first step is to actually get a lawyer" Sarah grinned before throwing the phone in Tyler's direction. His hand rose as the black metal fell into his fist, before he began to dial his mother's phone number.
"Don't worry, we'll get this sorted" Kate smiled, hope dancing in her eyes.
Reid smiled in return, even though he knew that his chances were slim, if almost none existent. In reality, he stood no chance of winning this case, he knew that they all knew this harsh fact, but nobody, not even himself, could admit it out loud. It would appear too real.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Okay, so she says she'll be on the first flight back home. Don't worry, Reid, this will all turn out okay" Tyler smiled while giving the blonde's hand a reassuring squeeze.
"Well at least there is some good news" Sarah beamed, jumping forward slightly from Caleb only to realize the randomness of her actions before she stepped back in tow with her boyfriend.
"Yes, she has a point, this is good news! Now we have a lawyer, all we need now is to work out how to prove his innocence!" Kate spoke happily, looking around the room for anybody who might have an idea. Realizing that nobody looked as confident as she felt, her face dropped, along with her hope. Maybe this would be more complicated than she had anticipated.
"Oh my god, were acting like we are fourteen or something. This is stupid. Now, let's put our heads together" Tyler sighed looking around the room as Kate had done, hoping that he inspired some confidence in somebody.
"Now really isn't the time, Tyler, sadly" Reid smirked while sending the brunette a playful wink.
"Reid, good god, this is serious!" Tyler scolded while attempting to stop the smile that was forming on his features.
"I know" Reid replied, only his meaning was along with his first, not what Tyler thought it was.
"Good. Now, come on, what can we do" Tyler groaned out of annoyance. This was getting them nowhere.
"Look, why don't we all just, take a break? Logically there is nothing we can do because we don't know the law in its full entirety, so we could think of something, and find out that there is a fault or loop hole in there somewhere. Lets just wait till Tyler's mum arrives, then we can really start to think about this completely" Sarah stated after a few minutes of silence.
"Sounds like a plan. Caleb, go get the movies, Pogue, get the sleeping bags, girls, go get the junk food. Tyler, come here" Reid ordered before pulling Tyler towards him, his lips crashing on his own. When there is no answer, distract yourself with the help of your friends. That is exactly what everybody in the room wanted to do.
Without a second thought, they all left the room to get what they had been told to get. They all needed this break, and by god they were going to take it.
XXXXXXXXXX
Sorry this chapter was out late. Here is my explanation. It was my best friend's birthday on Friday, so I traveled down to Birmingham on the Thursday, planned it all on the Wednesday (xx) ready for the Friday. Met a guy I'd never met before in my life called Marc who is my best friend's fiancé's best friend (haha) and ended up having very wild sex Friday night with him rofl. Then came home on the Saturday afternoon, went straight to sleep, work Sunday morning and then went out with my mum for Sunday lunch and now I'm just finishing this chapter off. So yeah, sorry for the delay, I've been busy, sore and not really known if I'm coming or going haha. Hope you liked this chapter.
The next one will be out a little later. It's roughly around 5 pages? I think something like that. But yeah, it'll be out next month, maybe around the 12th? Sorry, but with summer arriving, everything is up in arms, I'm traveling everywhere and people are coming to see me etc and I'm confused! So yeah, sorry!!
Till next time
Sakurabound – Haha you loved it ;
Blood And Ink – No haha, you can't. Just wait, I have something in store for her
Patron Saint of Heartache – You can hurt her….some what o Just try not to leave marks, she needs that face of hers for a bit longer until I've finished with her lol.
lilsteves – Yes, I had to make her pregnant. It's a fine example of what can happen when you don't have protective sex; even if you believe that the person you're having it with is 'the one'. Plus, Rachel's character is built upon a girl I know, and she just recently found out she was pregnant, so . Plus, is adds to the drama, so shuuuush haha.
emeyers – Thanks I'm glad I worked things out too lol. Oh yes, things really are getting interesting now, are they not? Lol.
guardian music angel – Updated lol.
blazingfire03 – Lols! I have a plan for everything, just wait and see, you won't be sorry, I promise lol.aHaha. HHafsNFDKSLK
