"Who hit you?"

I asked

Letting her words sink in.

She sniffled again

And a few more

Wet tears

Raced down her cheeks.

"Br-Brandon.

Then he broke up with me."

Brandon.

I should've known

That the boy

Who smokes

And does drugs

And gets into fights

And boxes

Was dangerous.

Now my best friend

Whom I secretly loved

Was broken

And the only thing I could do

Was sit here

And keep her company

When I should've been

Protecting her.

"What else did he do?"

I said cautiously

Afraid to hear

What she was about to say.

"H-he called me a slut

And a whore

And accused me

Of sleeping with other guys.

You in particular."

I scooted over next to her

So that our bodies were inches apart

And her wet tears were visible

Just inches from my own cheek.

"Listen to me.

You're not a slut.

You're not a whore.

Whatever he says isn't true

And you shouldn't believe his lies.

I'm here for you

And that's all that matters.

I'll stay up all night

Even if it's just to remind you

That you're beautiful

And you're worth it."

Jessa smiled through the pain

And hugged me tightly.

"Try me."
