It was a friday night and everyone at my middle school was invited to Nick Bennet's house. He was the hottest guy in school and all the girls were head over heels for him. Even though he is an 8th grader and I was a 6th grader I was still invited. His parents didn't care if he threw parties, they pretty much let him do whatever he wants, which if you ask me is pretty cool and he is lucky to have parents like that. I'm Heaven Knowlton, im the type of girl that nobody notices so I dont even know why I was invited to his party. Me and my best friend Avery Seleski were getting ready at her house. I had lied to my parents and told them me and Avery were going to see a movie but obviously not. "Are you ready?" Avery asks me while finishing up her make up. Yes we both wore make up. "Yup." I reply fixing the strands of hair that were sticking out. I had on high waisted shorts and a crop top and my hair was straight. Mean while she wore shorts and a shirt that showed a bit of her stomach, her hair was curled. We both headed downstairs to the car, where her mom was waiting for us. I guess you could say we are both way too young to be going to a party but who wouldn't want to go. "I cannot wait to get to Nick Bennet's house." She said while getting in the car. She is totally obsessed about him. I mean who wouldnt be but she has a really bad obsession over him. "Heaven?" She says waving her hand in front of my face trying to get my attention. "What?" I ask moving away from my thoughts. "Are you excited too?" She asks. "Uh..yeah." I say. She raises one eyebrow. "You dont sound to happy." She says frowning. "I am." I say forcing a smile. "K." She says before turning to look out the window. It was 8:32 and to be honest I was really nervous about going. We finally arrived and his house had a gate around it. It was a mansion. Avery's mom rang the bell and the gates opened. She drove around in a half circle and we got out the car. Her mom drove off and we waved good bye. We walked up the steps and since the door was open we walked right in. There was ALOT of people in here. I turned around to talk to Avery but she was gone. I looked around the room, standing there really awkwardly as if I didnt know what to do with myself, she was no where to be found. Out of all the people I spotted one specific person. Nick Bennet. He looked over to me and looked me up and down. I felt uncomfortable and went into the next room. It was the kitchen. I saw Avery talking to Nick's bestfriend, Tyler Holden. If im not mistakened I believe he was flirting with her. I walked right up to her and grabed her wrist. "Hey!" She yelled turning to see it was me. "Oh....hey" she said awkwardly. "What happened to you not leaving me?" I asked. "Well technically I didnt say it." She said with an 'im sorry' smile. "Forget it." I say turning to leave. "Heaven!" She called but I didnt turn around I kept walking. I guess im left alone now. Well not really alone because there are tons of people here but you know what I mean. I walk to the backyard and sit on one of the swings by the pool. The music is blasting and im sort of getting a headache. I swing slowly for a few minutes while looking at my feet. Since I have sandles on, I can feel the smooth grass. I take off my sandles and let my feet feel the grass. Who knew grass would be this soft. I know that is weird to say but Its true. "Is this seat taken?" Someone asks me making me jump a bit. I look up to see NICK!!! "No." I say casually. Even though my heart is beating out of my chest. He smiles and takes a seat. "You look really nice today." He says observing me. There we go with that uncomfortableness again. I know thats not even a word. "Uh..thanks" I say looking away. "You wanna go for a walk?" He asks not taking his eyes off of me. "S-sure." I stuttered. We got up and he took my hand. I had no idea whether to remove it or not so l just kept it there. He looked at me and smiled. "Lets go to the woods." He says pointing to woods behind his house. I dont say anything. We are at the edge of the forest and im too scared to go in. "Whats wrong?" He asks "are you scared?" I shake my head no even though I was. He pulls my arm a bit and gives me a warm smile. That charming smile. I sigh. We go into the woods and its pitch black. He kept looking around. What was he looking for? We get deep into the woods and finally we stop. "Maybe we should go back." I say terrified. "Are you chickening out?" He teases coming close to me. I start to walk back a bit until im pinned against a tree and his body. "What are you doing?" I ask. "Shh." Is all he says. Then he leans forward until his lips touch mine I couldn't help but to kiss back. He was an amazing kisser. I blush as that thought amazing kisser. I blush as that thought traveled around my mind. He deepens the kiss and soon enough I find his hands all over my body. I play with his hair while we kiss. Soon enough we part and he smiles breathing heavily. "We can go back now." He says "ok." I say unpinning myself and walking towards the house. I feel someone pull my hair and throw me to the ground. I lay there feeling dizzy looking up at him. He is smiling and looking at my body like im a piece of me. He gots on top of me and holds my hands together "HELP!!" I yell but the music is too loud. "No one can here you" he says laughing. I can't believe what is happening. Im being raped.

He was done raping me and tears were streaming down my face. He lifts me up by my hair. "If you tell anyone about this. I will kill you. You understand me?!" He yells. I nod. He throws me down again and my head is throbbing. He leaves me there. I can believe a 14 year old just raped me. I drift off feeling dizzy and fall into a deep sleep. I wake up to the light shining on my face. I have a migrain. I sit up and look around. Im still on the woods. A bit of my hair was lying on the ground, I had no pants on, and was covered in dirt. My hair looked like I got attacked by lions and i had scratches and bruises on my arms and legs. I get up slowly and put my pants on then head straight to the house. I rubbed my eyes and mascara was smeared all over my face from crying last night. I was in a lot of unbearable pain. Finally out of the woods. I spotted my sandles by the swing and I quickly put them on. I go around the house hoping to not be caught and walk to Avery's house. It was five blocks down from here. When I reach her house I knock gently because im really sore and in pain. Avery opens the door. Her eyes grow wide and she hugs me. "What happened?!" She asks on the urge of crying. I couldnt tell her what happened "I fell asleep in his backyard." I lied. She didn't look too convinced so I just forced a smile. "Well im glad you are ok." She hugs me again. We walk up to her room and I look at my self in the mirror. Tears slowly start to fall down my cheeks. "Do you want to explain all the cuts and bruises?" She asks holding me tight. I shake my head. "Here go wash up." She says handing me a towel. And I did as she said. I got in the shower and my cuts were burning. I got them from the sticks on the ground. I wish I could tell Avery but im afraid to. I get out the shower and threw on a pair of pajamas she lended me. I dried off my hair and walked into the kitchen thinking Avery would be there. "Avery?" I called but she wasnt there. I heard her laughing in her room so I decided to go over there. "Avery?" I call again opening the door. "Yeah?" She says turning away from the computer. "Who are you talking to?" A person from the computer asks. I look at her confused. "I was talking to Heaven" she answers then motions for me to sit next to her on the bed.I sit down and see tyler. "Hey Heaven" he says waving.

Remembering he is Nick's best friend I try not to say much "hi" I say smiling. We talk with him on facetime for about an hour or so until he had to go. "So whats going on between you two?" I ask poking her. "Nothing." She blushes. "Sure thats what they all say and then you guys are complaining about billsno that are past due." I say and we both laugh. "Wellll " she starts emphasising the 'l'. "Welllll" I repeat. "I kinda like him I guess but he is too old for me" She says dissapointed. "There are other fish in the sea." I say trying to cheer her up. She laughs and hits me with a pillow. "Ow" I laugh and hit her again. PILLOW FIGHT!!!!!! ~~~ I had to go home and Avery let me keep the pajamas to cover up my cuts and bruises. My parents werent home which was good, it gave me time to sleep. I snuggled up in my cozy bed and fell sound asleep.

(4 weeks later)

I haven't been to school in four weeks. But me and Avery have hung out and she brings me my homework and stuff that I missed. I used to be really skinny but now Avery thinks im getting a bit fatter. I just tell her that I probably was gaining weight from eating a lot. But she never was too convinced. It was monday and this day was dragging. I was extremely bored. I was trying to think of things I could do. But since Avery told me I was getting fat I decided to look into it. Remembering that he didnt use protection, I started to get worried. I quickly ran to the bathroom and looked for a pregnancy test, we have them because my mother was expecting and she wanted to keep an update on it. With no luck I ran to her bathroom and luckily I found one. She had a ton of them in the drawer. I went back to my bathroom and used it. Once I was finished I looked at it and my eyes widened. No I cant be pregnant. Tears fell down my face as I sat there. I couldnt tell anyone. Not now at least. I heard the sound of the car in the driveway and went to go check. It was my parents. I needed to hide the pregnancy test fast. So I grabbed a sheet of blank paper, wrapped it around, and tossed it in the trash. Then they came into the house. "Heaven?" My mother called. I washed my face fast and ran downstairs. "Mom. Dad. You're home!" I said hugging both of them. They smiled at me. "Im going to bed. I had a rough day." My mom said, giving me a kiss on my cheek then leaving. I frowned a bit but my dad picked me up bridal style and carried me to my room. I giggled. "I know it's going to be tough now princess but we have to make the best of it." He said sadly. "What do you mean?" I asked. "I mean your mom and I have to go to Australlia for our job." He replied. They were both doctors and flew all over the world to help people. "For how long?" | asked. "A couple of days, maybe a week. A month at most." He said. "We leave at 6 tomorrow." He added. A tear slid down my cheek and his eyes got watery. "Dont cry baby girl." He said wiping away my tear. I gave him a really tight hug and said "please dont go." Before letting out a stream of tears. He held me in his arms. "I dont want to go either but we need the money." He said. "I understand." I said. He lay me on my bed and kissed my cheek."Good night Heaven." He said before leaving and turning off the lights. "Good night dad." I said. Getting under the covers. He slowly closed my door and I waited until I couldnt hear foot steps anymore. I burried my face in my pillow and cried. I even cried myself to sleep. *next day* I wake up at 6 exactly and run to my parents room to find them gone and my nanny cleaning the room. Tears form in my eyes and she comes over to me. "Heaven dear I know you are upset that they are gone but think of it as this way. They are saving lives." She says hugging me tight. "I know but they are always gone" I say sadly. "Come dear go get ready while I make you some food." She says smiling. "Thats on l'm not hungry." I say turning to go to my room. "Would you like to stay home today?" She offers. "No" I mumble. I go through my closet then through my dresser. I pull out sweat pants and a tank top. Its a bit chilly today. I put my hair in a messy bun, do my makeup, and put on hoops. I'm petrified at the thought of being pregnant. I hope my belly doesn't show. I grab my bag and head for the bus stop. Once the bus arrives. People are staring at me. I quickly get on the bus and sit next to Avery. She hugs me. "I'm so glad you are back." She smiles. I force a smile. "Baby girl tell me what happened? You never did" she asks feeling concerned. "I can't talk about it." I say frowning. "I'm here if you need me." She says. I smile then look down at my stomachs hoping she wouldn't notice. Gladly she doesn't and turns to look out the window. The rest of the ride we didn't talk. We got to school and I head straight to my locker. I'm alone now because Avery decided to leave me. I'm putting things in my locker when someone comes up behind me. "Um are you heaven?" She asks. I turn to see an 8th grader. "Yeah" | say. She gives me a discusted look. "You are such a slut" she says laughing then walking away. I run to the bathroom crying. I didn't bother going to class at all. I'm so glad school ends next week.
