Lust, Love & Rape

The morning was dark and cold. The Moon, as if shy hid behind the clouds, casting dark shadows on the silent street of Fox University. I walked gently but hastily,cursing viciously under my breath. I was few miles away from my dorm and could barely wait to get to my room, so that I could calmly pen down a text I would send to Lauren, my best friend. my ex-bestfriend. Today was Lauren's birthday and I had gleefully woken up at about thirty minutes before twelve a.m, I had planned a surprise for Lauren. I was going to be the first person to give her compliments on her birthday and was going to do it in her room at exactly twelve. It was a move the both of us would come to talk about for years to come, a hallmark of our friendship, a move to be remembered. So when I wore my black slim jeans with the black hoodie she had got me for Christmas and left my dorm room that night, I was happy that I was about to create one of the most memorable birthday the both of us had ever witnessed. At least that's what I thought.

Lauren lived outside the school campus, but it was a walkable distance from my dorm. I arrived at Lauren's room at about 11:56pm and from the windows saw the room was dark, just perfect I thought smiling to myself. She's surely asleep, I would creep up on her bed side, scare the hell out her and wish her a happy birthday and then we would both have fun throughout the morning. Damn, it was going to be a double score I thought smiling to myself again as I quietly opened the door with the spare key Lauren had given me a long time ago. I tiptoed into the room and unexpectedly walked in on a scene that would forever haunt my memory. I found Lauren sitting ontop my boyfriend Tyler, gently riding him gently. They were so lost in the moment that they didn't even realize I had entered the room. I stood bewildered for a while as I watched Lauren move her hips graciously, with her hands on his chest while they both made light moans. Tyler who laid flat on the bed was supposed to have seen me the minute I entered, But his eyes were close, blinded with pleasure I supposed. And when he finally opened his eyes, it met my blank gaze shooting at him, he hurriedly threw Lauren away, Lauren shocked at the move looked back and saw me standing pretrified, looking like I just saw a pair of ghost. She hurriedly covered herself with the bed sheets like I haven't seen her naked a thousand times, while Tyler woefully searched around for his under wears.

"I can explain Amber" she started

" Fuck you Lauren, I don't want to ever see you again, I don't want ever see any of you again" I said bolting for the door. Tyler made a move to follow me but was too late as i banged the door loudly behind me, heading for the streets to my dorm. I knew not which vexed me the more, Lauren betrayal or Tyler's. Fuck, I got my heart broken by two really close friends and at the same fucking time. I walked heatedly thinking of times me and Tyler had spent together fantasizing on how we would take each other's virginity. It had all been a lie. Hell, who knew how long the both of them had been stabbing me in the back. I was so clouded in thoughts, lost in the world of anger and didn't notice him silently crawling behind my back. I didn't know someone was behind me until he crept up behind me, covering my mouth with his large palms while his other hand held me tightly to him. I struggled fruitlessly to free myself, but his grip was way too intense for my tiny stature. The sound of help coming from my mouth was made inaudible by his palms. But i wasn't giving up anytime soon. He swept me of the ground in a quick flash and headed for the dark bushes behind the oak trees that paved the streets. I kept struggling until i finally got a hand free and started hitting his chest. I hit him with all the strength I could muster. Barely causing any harm. Hot tears streamed down the corners of my eyes as I struggled feebly, just few minutes ago I was engulfed in total anger and now I was embroided in pure fear. I kept struggling though already getting tired. He carried me as if clueless to my struggles down through the arrays of short grasses till a van appeared in the dark. One of the back doors was opened. And I caught a glimpse of a perfectly arranged bed and increased my struggle for freedom intensely. The thought of what might happen on that bed brought up every last bit of adrenaline in my system and after what seemed like a worthy effort I finally cut loose from his grip. I started running. Fast as my tiny legs could take me, but my stupid legs could barely afford a few meters before he caught up with me and this time he swept me off my feet more faster than the first time but yet surprisingly gentle. I almost cursed God for given me such tiny legs. But didn't want to ruin what seemed like my only possible savior. He took me inside the black van shutting the door behind. I squinted my eyes adjusting to the brightness of the van. I was quite shocked at the interior of the van. It was beautifully illuminated with cool furniture, it felt like I had walked into someone's room. Not like I frigging cared though. He laid me down on the bed cuffing my hands to the wooden rails. I gave up on struggling and resorted to prayers and as I prayed silently I began accessing my captor. He was really tall and I guessed he was going to be a 6.2 at most, He had a broad chest and a seemingly built stature. Fuck!, that explained why I had no luck freeing myself earlier. But worst I was more surprise at his mask. A panda mask, who fucking wears a panda mask to commit a crime I thought. I would have laughed if I had seen it in a movie, but fuck it was real. This wasn't a movie, it's my life, it was real. I was about to be raped.
