Chapter 2

Cody's P.O.V

The bell rang at six o clock. Curfew was finally over. I wiped my tears away and got out of bed. I have to go and see bailey. I have to beg her for forgiveness. I was sure that she will never forgive me, not after what happened to her. But I had to see her. I had to know that she was alright.

"Wow, Cody you are being very confident" said Woody

"What do you mean" I asked

"I mean that if I were you I would be too ashamed to face Bailey again"

Suddenly I felt ashamed and guilty. I couldn't show my face to her.

"Too ashamed to face Bailey? Why?" asked Zack entering the room

I quickly explained what happened last night. He listened in horror.

"Woody is right" I said to Zack "How can I face Bailey again?"

Zack thought for a while and finally said

"look man, You have to face her sooner or later. I know that you are feeling guilty right now. You probably feel that this is all your fault and I am not going to say it's not. But Bailey needs her friends and family right now. Her family is not here and you are her best friend. I know you two were not getting along after the break up. But She needs you man. This is the time to step in and win her back at least as a friend"

I instantly knew that Zack was right. I can't abandon her now. She needs me.

Mosby's P.O.V

I was waiting outsideBailey's room in the hospital. It's been three hours since we found her. She is still in shock. She doesn't speak to anyone. She just stares at the wall all day. I personally tried speaking to her but she didn't respond. My heart dropped seeing her in this position but there was nothing I can do.

"Mr Mosby", someone said in a trembling voice. I looked at him. It was Cody accompanied by Zack, Woody, Marcus and London. "How is she?" he asked

"Not very good" I answered "she is in shock"

"can we see her"

"of course"

Cody's P.O.V

We walked in to Bailey's room. She was sitting up in the bed staring at the wall. She didn't even notice us come in. She had bruises all over her body. It looked like she has also been tortured. I felt immense pain building inside my heart. I chocked back a few tears. "I am not going to cry, I am not going to cry" I said to myself.

"Bailey" I said softly. She didn't respond

"Bailey" I said again this time a little louder. Still no response

I walked closer to her and touch her hand gently to which she panicked and looked at me with fear in her eyes. I let go immediately. Seeing this, my heart sank to the bottom of the ocean. Tears came pouring out of my eyes. I didn't know what to do. Finally I pulled her in to a hug and whispered in to her neck in a trembling voice "I am so sorry Bailey. I should have never written that play. This is all my fault". I was crying my eyes out in front of the girl I love and woody, Marcus, Zack and London were witnessing the whole thing but I didn't care. It was too much pain to hold it in. Seeing bailey like this made me vulnerable and I had no intention of hiding it.

Zack's P.O.V

I watch my brother cry his heart out. "I am so sorry bailey, I am so sorry" he kept repeating as if it will erase what happened to her. I know my brother has always been a cry baby but I have never seen him cry like this not in front of everyone. I began to feel the pain he was going through. I chocked back a few tears myself. My heart aches to see him like this. For the moment it seemed like he was in more pain than Bailey herself.

Few minutes later the chief security officer entered the room. But Cody didn't care,

"I am so sorry bailey" said Cody one more time still hugging Bailey. "I never meant to hurt you. I will never do anything like that ever again"

"You did this to her" said the chief security officer. Cody pulled away from the hug and look at him in shock.

"No he didn't" I said quickly. "This is not what it looks like"

"Then why is he begging for forgiveness" asked the chief security officer

I quickly explained to him all about Cody's relationship with Bailey, the breakup and the play. I was hoping it would get him off the hook. But it didn't work. He became more suspicious about Cody.

"Do you know that 68% of all rape victims were raped by their boyfriends or friends?" he said

"What are you saying that Cody did this?" I asked

"Well, he is our number 1 suspect right now. Where were you between 7 and 10 pm yesterday?" he asked Cody

"In my room doing my homework" said Cody

"can anyone vouch for you on that?"

"No, I was alone"

"You will have to come with me"

My heart started to beat fast. Cody was in trouble, big trouble.

Cody's P.O.V

I followed the chief security officer to his office. Zack, Mr. Mosby and Miss Tutweiler also joined us. I can't believe he thinks I did this. I can never do something like this to Bailey. I Love her.

"Look Mr." said Zack "I know my brother Cody very well. He doesn't even have the guts to sleep with a women let alone rape her. I highly doubt that he even knows how to do that"

"Hey" I said

"Not helping Cody" continued Zack "Plus look at him, do you think he has the strength to do that. Bailey is a very strong girl. Tell him Mr Mosby"

" I have known Cody for a long time" Said Mr Mosby to the security officer "I highly doubt he did this"

"I agree" said miss Tutweiler "Cody is one of the most well-behaved boys I know"

"I have seen many well behaved boys turn bad" said the Chief security officer.

"So Cody" he continued "You say you were doing your homework"

"Homework" interrupted Miss Tutweiler "But I didn't assign any for this week"

"Oh great" I thought now she also thinks I did this

"I was doing next month's homework" I clarified

"Who does that?" asked the security officer

I can sense it, he doesn't believe me.

"Look sir" I said "I can never do anything like that to Bailey, I love her"

"Is that why you broke up with her?" He asked "Is that why you wrote that Play?"

"No" I replied "That was just my anger speaking"

"Well, how do we know that your anger was not strong enough to do this to Bailey?" He asked

"By the way" he continued "How did you know that Bailey was in trouble?, How come you came to Mosby with the information that she is missing?"

"I don't know how I knew" I said "I just knew okay"

"I'll tell you how you knew" said the security officer. "You raped her, then you felt bad about it so you inform Mosby that she is missing."

I didn't know what to say. I fell silent. He had a good point and there was no other way to explain how I knew she was missing. I was in trouble, big trouble.
