T.W sexual assault

I walk up the stairs to my bedroom bleeding and aching everywhere.

I open the door to my room and collapse on the floor and sob into the carpet letting it soak every scar.

I turn to face my ceiling still lying on my back and I feel a stab in my lower abdomen I lift my shirt and see all of the scratches leading down to my pants line and further down.

I couldn't take it.

I can't go to school tomorrow. If anyone knew what happened to me I would be looked at differently and judged.

I start to think of what else could happen until I can think of nothing at all. Starting to feel numb, I doze off into a dream of absolute nothing.

.....

I wake still in the same spot but just curled into a ball feeling everything from the night before.

I feel numb all the pain is gone. I can't cry I don't feel anything.

I haven't felt this since I was 12.

I get up and the bloodstains on my pants are dry and the ones on my arms still gushing.

I walk to my bathroom and get in the shower with my clothes still on.

Once the water hits my skin all the blood washes down my body and into the drain.

I get out and figure I have to change into different clothes.

I throw on an oversized hoodie and some jeans.

I walk out the door and feel the cold air hit my skin a ton of bricks. I take a step back and take a breath.

Gain control.

I take another deep breath and walk forward.

Like I've said it takes a while to walk down the staircase so now it takes me even longer.

I reach the bottom of the staircase and walk into the kitchen.

"Good morning-" My mum looks at me horrified once I walk in.

I sit down and eat my bowl of cereal.

"Honey are you alright-"

"I'm fine," I say quickly not looking up at her.

"What happened to your nice clothes sweetie?" My mother asks.

"I wasn't in the mood," I say plainly.

"Oh, Well you need to change before you go to school," She says.

"I don't care"

"You should" she snaps

"Well, I don't" I stand up and grab my bags.

"Is miss Rivera ready?" Lolly asks.

"Yes Lolly," I say.

She takes out a golden key we will use as a portkey.

I grab onto it and away I go, spinning to Hogwarts.

I let go and land on the grass. I walk towards the school and feel a pit in my stomach.

Thank God it's Saturday.

I get to the entrance and walk to the dungeons.

"Jessa!" Someone yells behind me.

I turn around to see that it's Cedric.

"Oh hey, Cedric" I give a half-smile.

"You missed the name-calling for the Triwizard tournament," He says
