recap
Bang! He hit me again this time even harder. Everything turned to black.
end recap
When I opened my eyes Tom was still there. I didn't lie on the couch anymore. I was in my bedroom tied up on my feet and arms. The ropes were so tight it hurt. I was so damn scared I couldn't even scream. Tom ribbed off my clothes and pulled down his pants. He had a huge boner. I cried and begged "Please stop Tom, please" but he didn't. He hit me again and again before leaning over me. I felt so much pain when he entered me. I hoped all this was a bad nightmare. The last thing I heard was a big bang and Tom falling on top of me. Then I lost my consciousness again.
When I woke up I lied in a bed. I felt a warm blanket around me. Someone was holding my hand. It was Billie. He leaned over and stroke my forehead. "It's OK, Sarah, I'm here. You're safe" he said kissing my forehead.
"Where is Tom?" I said crying a little, remembering what happened before the black out.
"At the police station. He won't hurt you again" he said.
"You came back?" I asked him
"Yeah, I'm sorry. I should have believed you right away. I'm sorry. Mel called me. She said you called her and sounded in trouble. I immediately ran back home and found Tom on top of you. I beat him up and called the police." Billie talked very fast. "Listen, when you feel better you need to go to a doctor." he said caressing my cheek.
"OK" I whispered. I still was in a huge state of shock.
Suddenly all the pain returned. My head hurt. I felt I had been bleeding. My wrists, ankles and abdomen hurt. I looked at my wrists. They had red stripes on it. I felt tears dropping down my cheek. Billie took a wet cloth and put it on my forehead.
"I'm so damn sorry, Sarah. If I hadn't run away, this would not have happened. I'm sorry." he said taking my hand and kissing it.
"Don't be, Billie. It's not your fault. At least you came and chased him away. That's more that I could have asked for. Who knows what else he would have done."
"But the damage is already big enough." he said
"Shhh... please stop. It's not your fault. I love you."
"I love you too Sarah" he said kissing the too of my head.
"Billie, where is Mel?" I asked him after some minutes
"She's in the lounge room. Do you want me to bring her?"
"Please."
Billie got her.
"How are you feeling" Mel asked sitting on my bed
"Better, but still bad" I answered. "Thanks for calling Billie"
"No, prob Sarah. I was afraid. And I was confused so I asked Billie what happened."
"Did you read the newspaper?" I asked her.
"I did. He's such an asshole. But for now you're rid of him" she said smiling.
I tried to smile back but I couldn't. I just looked at her. Then there was a knock on the door.
"Can we come in?" someone asked. It was Mike. With Tré and Vany.
"Sure" I said.
Vany felt so bad. She was the one telling Tom I was around. But I couldn't blame her. She didn't know what he did to me.
"I'm so sorry, Sarah" she kept apologizing again and again.
"You're not the one to blame. It's Tom. You couldn't know" I said trying to calm her.
We talked a little until Billie came back with some soup.
"Here, you must eat something" he said.
Then everyone walked out leaving Billie and me alone.
"You need to get some sleep. Tomorrow we'll go to the doctor" he said.
I nodded.
"Billie?"
"Hm?"
"Will you come to bed with me?" I asked
"Sure" he said
He laid down next to me and wrapped his arms around me holding me tight.
After a while I whispered
"Billie?"
"You're not sleeping?" he asked
"Billie, how long have I lied here?"
"Uhm, well almost a day." he answered stroking through my hair.
"That's long" I answered resting me head on his chest. Then I fell asleep.
When I woke up Billie was still lying next to me. I realized it was dark outside. I got up and tried to walk a little bit. I was still weak and almost fell. Billie woke up and caught me.
"You should not walk alone" he said holding me.
"I wanna walk a little" I answered
"OK, you wanna go out for a walk?" he asked
We changed our clothes and slowly walked down the stairs. My knees were so weak. I held Billie's hand tight. We stepped outside and had a little walk. It felt good to breathe fresh air and be outside. Billie wrapped his arms around me and held me tight.
We only walked for about half an hour and then returned.
We silently walked through the lounge room where everyone was sleeping and went into the kitchen. I noticed a newspaper. It was the same one that wrote that shit that lead to all this. I read in huge capital letters "We're sorry, Sarah"
I looked up at Billie who smiled.
"You know I called them and yelled at them and they said they were sorry and wrote this" he said smiling. "And by the way, your mom called and Mel talked to her. She is very worried. You better call her as soon as possible" he said.
"I better do that now because of the time lag" I said
We went back upstairs and I phoned my mom. As Billie said, she was very concerned but I tried to convince her that I'm fine. She scolded about Tom and that if she finds him he's dead. I told her I'll be fine and hung up.
Billie and I then went back to sleep until we woke up at 9:17am.
I was already feeling a lot better and except from the scars you wouldn't think that something happened to me. Well I was still in a kind of shock but with all the lovely people around me I felt better.
Mel, Mike, Tré and Vany went back home. As I watched them I noticed Tré was holding Vany's hand. I smiled to myself and looked at Billie. He smiled as well.
Then we went to the hospital. In front of Billie's house there were some paparazzi that were yelling and asking how I feel and stuff. I didn't want this to be that big. Hell, I'm not a person that can stand that much attention. I didn't want people to know what happened. I felt kind of ashamed. Billie took my hand and hurried with me to the car. I sat down and he yelled something at the paparazzi. Then we drove off.
I was afraid going to the hospital. What if Tom hurt me somewhere inside? I still had pain. What if he made me pregnant? I was so scared. While walking through the hospital I squeezed Billie's hand.
"It's OK. I'm here. Don't worry" he said kissing my forehead.
We waited a little in the waiting room until the nurse called me. I wanted Billie to join me but first they didn't let him. But finally they allowed it. I wouldn't let go of Billie's hand.
The doctor talked to me a little and then examined me. After that we had to wait a little until we were called into his office.
"Please take a seat" he said pointing to the chairs in front of his desk.
Bang! He hit me again this time even harder. Everything turned to black.
