You, Me, We, Us

Chapter 37

Zoe

He saved me. Hudson saved me. Thank God I just don't understand I didn't put my drink down at all how did they get it in there. I can see although some parts are fuzzy I can feel there are doctors and nurses I don't like them touching me I start to panic they say go get her brother and boyfriend. I can't stop the panic my brother my boyfriend? Then I hear Hudson's voice and his hands on me he's here calming me. Soothing my soul I need him I want to touch him but I can't move I here another voice and Hudson bends down and wispers it's Brock he's 18 they didn't question him being your brother so for now he's an honorary brother now sweetcheeks blink once if you understand. I blink. They help me give me an antidote and monitor me I fall asleep and when I wake finally I can talk. The first thing I say Hudson he lifts his head oh my God Zoe you scared the s**t out of me. To my surprise Brock is still there he brings a cup of water over and I drink it fast. Slow down little lady you might get sick if you chug it. I slow down and when I'm done I start to cry Hudson I'm sorry I'm so sorry you said to stay with you I just needed to use the bathroom I didn't leave my drink unattended I don't *hiccup* know what happened. It's all my fault everything I ruined it all. I understand if you never want to take me anywhere again.

Hudson

Baby it's ok it wasn't your fault the guy bumped into you and dropped it in your drink you didn't see it and it's not your fault. It was their fault. We found three other girls who are lucky because you went missing the other guys went to look for you and we just started asking every girl if it was consensual the guys found three girls that couldn't respond so they are also here. She looks up and says I was so scared I thought that's how I'm losing my virginity great asshole gets to take it away from me. She's sobbing again baby I made it in time I made it your going to be ok. It might take you a while not to feel violated and to feel safe but you're here and I'll be with you through it all. Can you tell me what happened? I couldn't find you so I rested up against the wall upstairs and drank my drink. I didn't even have alcohol I just put coke in a red cup so no one would question me. I started to feel weird this guy said he'd help me find you then I couldn't barely move he got me to that room then he kissed me (tears running down her face) he uh he took my top down I couldn't move he sucked on my n**ples and tried to get my shorts off but he got frustrated he was drunk and his movements were clumsy he rubbed his d**k against me and said you know whats sad I can't even get it up if I can't take it by force it makes me so h**d he licked my face and tried aging with my short this time coming up the leg hole and you came in and pulled him off. I feel so gross I'm gonna be sick she said Brock brought a puke bag and she threw up when she was done we got her a toothbrush and toothpaste so she could brush. The doctor came in and said she had 3 hours and then she could go home they would release her into Brocks care. She was calm it was just the three of us in the room she asked the nurse if she could get a shower the nurse said after I swab you what for DNA we don't know if it will work or not but if we can get enough it will be easier to prosecute. She ask us guys to give then 30 minutes we say we will be right outside shout if you need us. We leave and I lose it Brock just stands there he comes over and says dude get it out now because she needs you. I know this happened on my watch I should have paid more attention. No man what happened to her was awful but look at it like this if that wouldn't have happened those girls would have been r**ed. By looking for Zoe we saved 3 other girls. Yeah I just she's my bestfriend man I just never want her hurt the fact that someone touched her that way and she didn't want it to happen it makes me angry and hurt I feel like I can't breath and my heart feels like it's breaking. Brock: look I don't know her that well but I do know you and you are one of the most expressive men I know. Tell her how you feel she might think other wise if you don't tell her, she might think you're mad at her or something. How do you know so much about this. Borck: my sister was raped I was angry so angry I didn't want to be in the same room with her because I didn't want to scare her but all I ended up doing was making her feel like it was her fault and I was angry with her. It wasn't until we talked that I realized my mistake and I just don't want her to feel the way my sister did. Thanks Brock and I'm sorry about your sister. Thanks but my sister was determined to gain something positive from what happened to her. She now counsels other victims I called her and asked her to come talk to the girls and she said she'll be here soon. That's good thanks for all your help. Brock: well now little miss in there is an honorary sister of mine if she needs help then I will be there. She's a special girl. Hudson I know it.
