Rose
I turned on the shower and stripped down. I put the clothes in a bag and tied it. I hopped in the shower and flinched at the hot water streaming down my body making any minor cuts sting.
But regardless of the stinging it felt good to shower. I washed my hair and aggressively scrubbed my body down. I dried myself down and wrapped my body in my towel. I scrubbed my face and brushed my teeth. I lotioned my body down and sighed in satisfaction. I feel like a brand new person.
I pulled on my sweats and felt something lowering on my back. I turned around and saw blood trickling down my spine. I covered my front side and opened the door.
"Where's Jewel?" I asked realizing Nick was the only one in the room.
"She went to answer a call," he replied. "You ok?"
"No uh I just- I'm bleeding on my back and I need help cleaning it up," I sighed awkwardly.
His mouth formed an 'o' and put his hands in his pockets, "I mean. I don't mind helping you."
"Um. Yea ok. Sure," I mumbled clearing my throat.
I held onto my towel tighter and grabbed the first aid kit. I went into my room and sat next to him on my bed. I turned my back towards him and through my mirror I saw his face fall in sadness. He wiped his face and began cleaning it up. I felt my heartbeat faster and faster with every touch.
"Rose," he said and I turned my head towards him. "Relax. I'm not gonna hurt you. Ok? Breathe."
I nodded slowly and took a deep breathe. He finished up and I felt better. Nick relaxed me. Which I knew he would. He's the calmest in the group.
"Hey I'm- what the fuck?" Jewel asked stopping at the door.
"Oh relax it's not like that. I was cleaning her wound up," he laughed and I went to my bathroom. I pulled on a sweatshirt and walked back in my room. Jewel raised an eyebrow at me and returned the expression.
"What?" I asked.
"You don't dress like that," she replied.
"I do now. Shit happens," I groaned putting my sneakers on.
"Stop. Stop. You're not doing this-"
"Jewel you don't know what happened to me so leave me alone-"
"No bitch. I'm your best friend and I'm gonna ride this out with you," she spat and I looked down. "Rose... what happened?"
We sat in a circle on my bed and I sighed.
"I was going in the bathroom. And a guy barged in and raped me on the spot. Then I blanked out. I woke up in a basement and he hit me with a bat. Multiple times. All day. He raped me twice. But the guy who hit me was a different person. There's a team. Unknown isn't just one person," I stammered and Nick covered his mouth. Jewel's eyes watered up and she grabbed my hand.
"I'm sorry Rose. And you were a... I'm sorry," Jewel sighed with a tear streaming down her face.
"You were a virgin?" Nick asked shocked. I nodded slowly and looked down.
