Disclaimer- sorry I took so long to write this. I had er have a major writers block and I can't seem to get over it. So here it is, I honestly tried so hard to get it write. Don't judge this is all I could do with writers block.

Jade's POV

'Have you ever felt this way? So scared…terrified of being judged by others? This is how I feel right now. Sitting here with parents that aren't mine, they're waiting for me to speak. I open my mouth but nothing comes out. I can't tell them, what if they get mad? Or worse, what if they kick me out of their home? With such doubt I can not find a way to tell them I was r-raped.' I look over at Tori who's waiting for me to say it. I look at Tori's parents. They have a concerned look on their face.

"There's something Jade wants to say but it…it's not easy to say it." Tori said to them. I looked down at the floor.

"What is it?" Her mother spoke.

It hurts inside of me to speak of it. I'm scared…telling them isn't easy. They're Tori's parents for god's sake. I looked at them again with tears in my eyes. And I didn't see them, instead I saw my mom and dad sitting there. My mom…how beautiful she looked and my dad…

This is how it would have felt like telling my parents. If only they were here but no. Mom's dead and I never said good bye. Dad's gone, he walked away like a coward. I stared a bit longer at my parents. But they leave and in came Tori's parents. I shed a tear; I felt it run down my cheek.

"Jade, what's wrong? You're scaring me." Mrs. Vega said. She's too kind to me. She's my mother figure in my life.

"It's just…please don't get mad." I said softly. I refused to look at her any longer and my eyes wondered with tears to the floor.

"Tori what's happened?" Mr. Vega stepped in. I glanced at Tori who had her eyes on me.

"You can do it Jade." She whispered to me. I nodded. I whipped away my tears. Here I go.

"I-I was…I was," I took a deep breath, "I was r-raped…" I admitted. I hear a gasp and then silence fell upon us. I didn't dare to life my eyes up at her. Then suddenly I felt arms wrap around me.

"Its ok." I heard. Mrs. Vega had her arms around me. Mom, would you have wrapped your arms around me the way she has? I cried into her shoulder and held her tight.

"Please don't be mad…" I said between sobs. She pulled away, and looked at me, tears in her eyes.

"Oh sweetie, no. I would never be mad." She comforted me. Her hand on my cheek as she kneeled on the floor. I looked at Tori who smiled at me.

"I know you're not our daughter but you seem like one." Mr. Vega said.

I felt my heart get warm. Mom, are you looking down at me and thinking I did the right thing? Or do you hate me for becoming a daughter figure to the Vega's? I whipped my tears away.

"Do you want to press charges?" Mr. Vega asked me. I hesitated but nodded slowly.

"Jade, pressing charges is never easy but we're going to have to ask you many personal questions. I'll report the crime. Then I'll take you down to answer some questions." He explained.

I closed my eyes and nodded before opening my eyes again. I took a deep breath in and out. This is it, it's happening. I'm going to fight for justice. I'm going to fight and I'm not going to lose…

Mr. Vega is making the call that will start this war. Mrs. Vega smiled at me and went to the kitchen to make me coffee. I looked at Tori who smiled at me kindly.

"I said you could tell them. And you did. I'm proud of you." Tori told me. I smiled at her. How is it that we started out as enemies and now we're best friends. But my victory isn't over yet…

"They took this well but…how will they take the pregnancy?" I asked softly. Tori fell silent as her mother walked to us with a cup of coffee for me.

"Jade, I know it was hard for you to tell me but did it and I'm proud of you. I know your mother would be too." Mrs. Vega said. I swallowed hard and exchanged looks with Tori.

"What's with those look a girl's? There's not more to this story is there- oh god! Tori please tell me the bastard did not touch you too!" She exclaimed looking at her daughter with fear. Tori shook her head fiercely.

"I-it has to do with me." I said, my voice shaking.

"What happened…it had consequences…I-I'm p-pregnant." I stuttered. My body was shaking. I heard the crash the cup made when it fell to the ground.

"W-what?" Mrs. Vega's voice was uneasy. I heard panic in her voice.

"…" I wanted to say something but I was speechless. I couldn't do anything.

"Jade…" Was what she managed to say. Noticing her expression, Mr. Vega rushed to her.

"Honey what happened."

"Hurry and press charges now! That bastard won't get away with it!" She exclaimed. Mr. Vega looked at us.

"Jade' pregnant dad…" Tori said. I began to cry again. Tori put her arm on me. It's painful…I'm pregnant and it will never change.

"I…Jade how far a long are you?" Mrs. Vega asked.

"About a month…I'm in early."

"Ok, well first thing is we're going to have to get you checked out by a doctor." Mrs. Vega said. I nodded. I sighed. We sat there in pure silence.

I laid on my bed with Tori and Cat. After what happened this after noon, Mr. and Mrs. Vega went to the police station to report it. Tori called Cat to come over. We sat in my room quietly.

"So you're going through with it?" Cat asked.

"Yeah…" I answered. Silence fell upon us again. Its weird, I feel alone. Even though Tori's here and Cat, I still feel so alone. I feel empty. It's like I can't feel anything but emptiness. I have no emotion. I'm not scared, I'm not sad, I'm not happy…I'm just…empty? I'm not sure how I feel. I just don't feel the same. Its like there's something missing. There's a hole in my heart that wasn't there before. Maybe its my mother. I mean I never accepted the fact that she away gone until now. I'm finally letting go of the hope that one day she'll come back. She's gone…and I'll never see her again. Its been a while since I stopped to think of her. Since her death I've never thought about her until now.

"Jade, can I ask you something?" Tori asked.

"What?"
"When the baby's born…what are you going to do?" She asked. I sat up and looked at her.

"I…I don't know. I have my mother's inherence money so that will take care of the money issue. But the baby…I don't know."

"I can help take care of it!" Cat said excited. I smiled at her.

"Cat, how do you know how to take care of a baby?"

"I've taken care of my little brother before."

"It's not them same Cat, you're brother is 10. He's not a baby." I explained. She looked down sadly.

"But don't worry, you can still play with her." I said.

"Her? "Tori questioned.

"Huh?"

"You just said her. So you want it to be a girl." Tori asked me.

"No…well yeah I guess. I mean it'd be nice to have a girl but I don't really care."

"Oh! Can I be the aunt?" Cat said.

"Sure why not?" I said and watched Cat get all happy. Cat's like a little child. Its amazing how she can keep a smile on her face at time. Though sometimes I think it's fake, I can never tell.

I feel my phone vibrate. It's blocked, but I answer.

"Hello?" I said. I heard nothing in the other side.

"Who is this?" I asked

"You will lose this fight West. Give up now." That voice…James.

"No, you will lose! I'm never giving up until you're put behind bars." I shouted. Cat and Tori stared at me.

"No Jade. I'm warning you, do anything and you'll pay. I have my ways. No one will believe a slut. Just give up."

"Never, I'm pressing charges and you will never get to me ever again."

"Keep saying that but you don't mean it. Words are words, but I will take action. Look Jade, you're weak and frankly you'll break under pressure. You'll never be as powerful as you want to be. You are so pathetic trying to put me in jail. Ha! Go right ahead, I'd like to see you try. Jade, you're not smart enough to win. You are and will always be weak." He said and he hung up. Just like that his voice banished. I through the phone across the room with anger.

"Who was it?" Tori asked.

"James! He threatened me! He I was weak!" I shouted.

"Maybe…maybe I should just stop fighting. James is stronger then me." I said softer.

"No! Jade that's what he want you to think! He's trying to control you but don't let him! You're stronger then him. He's just talk. He's trying to scare you out of this." Cat said. I felt tears fall down my face.

"I can't Cat…he's right. I should just quit."

"Jade! No, come on, you're not going to let him win are you?"

"Cat you don't understand,"

"No Jade, you don't understand. He's trying to get you to quit because he's scared you'll win which you will." Cat said. I looked down.

"Don't let him win…please." Cat whispered as she hugged me. Tori held my hand.
"Cat's right, Jade. You can't let that bastard get away with this."

"But…what if I don't win?" I asked.

"Stop it with the "what if", you will win. Trust me." Tori said. I sighed and whipped off my tears.

"Its just, how can James keep doing this?"

"He's a bastard. Don't listen to him." Said Cat. I nodded and rested my head on my pillow. I'm going to win…right?
