Chapter 23- Thanks For The Sob Story

1 month later (Emma's POV)
I have never been more thankful for break. I've never been more thankful in general frankly. Lily is awake and well, Ben is doing great, and all is well with Sam and I.

Today is the day we drive up to Mike's house in LA. I'm praying that we do not run into any of my old friends because that would just be awkward. It's a three hour drive from here so I went in the car with the girls so we can talk and gossip and all that stuff that girls do.

"So ladies, how is it going with your boyfriends? Did any of you seal the deal yet? Besides Charlotte." Stacey teases, Charlotte opens her mouth shockingly and gasps. "Oh come on Charlie, we know that's how your relationship with mike started, I'm just teasing you."

"Ugh Fine you're right. What about you two? Anything hot and steamy in the bedroom?" Charlotte turned around and asked us, Lily shrugged. "Honestly I was planning on doing it this vacation. After the accident I realized that life is short, so why spend it regretting things you didn't get to do."

"Damn Lily that's deep. I haven't really given it much thought. Sam and I literally just started dating, and we all know what happened the last time I had sex. I just don't think I'm ready for that yet, but if you think you are Lily then I say as long as you're safe, go for it." She smiled at me and grabbed my hand.

"You know, I have a good feeling about this vacation. This is going to be great, we get to spend Christmas and New Years together and with our dates. I'm determined to get you a man Stacey." Charlotte said with a devious smirk.

"I wouldn't count on it with the boys in this town Charlie, they tend to be even douchier than at home. I heard Mike had an older brother-"

"Yes and he's hot as fuck! I would like to take a ride on his train, but sadly he won't be there. He's too busy with his college friends, I'll find someone." We all laughed at Stacey's joke. That was until we finally arrived at the house and I was practically shitting my pants. I want to throw up. I can't be here.

"Are you okay?" Stacey asks, I put on a fake smile and nod. I refuse to ruin this vacation for anyone.

We got our things from the cars and headed up to the rooms. What made me feel even more uncomfortable was the room that I got. It was the room. I felt the tears starting to form in my eyes as I heard the door close.

"W-What are you doing?" I slur, Kian gets on top of me and pulls my pants down. "Shh it's everything you've ever wanted." I feel my body start to go numb.

"Wha did you d-do to me?" I said groggily, he chuckled and shook his head. "I didn't do anything babe, I'm just giving what you want-"

"Stop!"

"Em, you okay?" It was Sam. I turned around with tears streaming down my face, I shook my head and clung onto him. "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"This is the house Sam. This is the room! Why did I agree to come here!" I carry on, he looks confused. "What house?"

"The party I told you Kian raped me at, that was here, in this room exactly. I'll never forget it. Mikes brother must be Kian's friend Alex. I don't know what to do, I want to stay for everyone, but being here is just driving me crazy."

"Do you want to go home? I'll take you." I shook my head. "I came here for a fun week with friends in order to escape everything with Kat and Liam and Marcus. But I guess I can't forget everything, my past is a part of me. And if facing my biggest fear will get me to have a fun time with friends than so be it."

"You can stay with me in my room if you want, no strings attached just sleeping. But if course it's up to you I'm not gonna force you." He said sympathetically, I sigh. "Are you sure?"
