《Obsessed ( Completed )》Chapter 17: Court
Advertisement
( I apologize if this chapter isn't very accurate to a real life case. I haven't ever been to court before so I'm kinda just going off of what I've seen on Tv. )
It's the day of the court case and I couldn't be anymore anxious or nervous. I just wish there was some kind of magic wand I could wave that would magically put Blake behind bars forever but sadly reality doesn't work that way.
I am currently in the parking lot of the court house with my mom sitting in the front seat trying to get me to get out of the car.
" Honey you will be fine I'm sure that you will win the case, with the money I'm paying for that lawyer you better. "
She mutters the last part but I still hear her.
" What if I lose? Then not only will that perv still be able to harass me but I will also never hear the end of it at school! Everyone already hates me and if I lose they will automatically assume it's because he's innocent. "
She sighs and turns towards me.
" I'm going to tell you a harsh secret known to the wise people. "
She says.
" Ok? "
" There is always going to be people who don't like you and there will always be people who talk trash about you so you need to learn to hold your head high and ignore them because the world isn't our play ground were the worlds play ground and it sucks. "
Minutes later I finally get enough courage to walk in and I'm surprised to see people from my school here to watch. I ignore their glares like my mom said to do and I walk to the front sitting next to my lawyer who politely smiles at me.

" Everyone rise. "
The judge says as Blake is escorted in by a cop. He glares daggers at me but I look down instead. The cop takes his handcuffs off.
" Do you swear to tell the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? "
The judge ask everyone and we all say " I do " at the same time.
" You may be seated, Mr.Womack you may go first. "
The judge says to Blake's lawyer who stands up.
" I would like to call Ms.Rose to the stand. "
My eyes go wide as I hear my name but I do as I'm told.
" Ms.Rose is it correct that you and Blake dated? "
" Yes. "
" You two aren't together anymore correct? "
" No we're not together anymore. "
I say looking at Blake. I haven't exactly told him were not together anymore but I think a cop taking him to jail is a good enough assumption.
" Oh really? Blake has said otherwise, are you already lying on the stand? "
" No sir he blackmailed me into dating him and I went along with it but recently I just couldn't take his harassment anymore. "
" How exactly did he blackmail you? "
" He had a edited version of the first incident that happened. He had cut some parts out to make it look like I was the one who wanted him to,...you know. "
My face grows hot and I know I'm blushing.
" Do you have this video with you? "
" No. "
" Then how exactly do we know it ever existed? "
I don't respond and he shows a winning smirk.
" I've heard that Blake had started dating a girl shortly after you two split the first time do you know her? "

" Yes I know her. "
" Are you close with her? "
" No were not very...... compatible . "
" I heard from several students you two are enemies. Always yelling at each other and when Blake and her were together people would see you looking at them angrily is this true? "
" Yes. "
" It seems to me Ms.Rose that this is a case of jealousy and that you just wanted to be noticed by Blake and took extreme measures and now you can't back out. "
I clench my fist and he smirks.
" No further questions. "
My lawyer stands up and gestures me to stay at the stand.
" I think Mr.Womack forgot to ask you the reason you and Blake broke up. "
" We broke up because I wouldn't have sex with him. "
I say looking down and knowing if my school does believe me I will forever be known as Virgin Mary.
" When is the first time that he attempted to rape you? "
" I'm not sure of the exact date but I went to a party and went to the bathroom and he followed me in there. "
My lawyer holds up a bag.
" Inside this bag we have the finger prints of Blake from the bathroom wall and counter top and tub. "
She says.
" No further questions, I call Mr.Edwards to the stand. "
I go sit down and Mr.Edwards walks up. He's dressed up in a white button up shirt and I must admit he looks hot.
" Mr.Edwards you witnessed the attack at the party correct? "
" Yes mam. "
" When you walked in what exactly was happening? "
Oh god did she have to ask? I bury my face in my hands.
" Lilly was on the counter top with Blake in front of her and she kept yelling at him to stop but he continued to kiss her and it looked like he was about to undo his pants. "
" After you witnessed this at school did she seem any different around Blake? "
" She would tense up around him a lot. "
" Alright no further questions. "
Everyone sits down as we wait for the judge to speak. About thirty minutes go by and she finally turns her attention to us.
" Not Guilty! "
She says and slams the gavel down. I feel like the world freezes in front of me and I can't hear anyone.
That monster is going to be roaming free again.
And there's nothing I can do about it.
He walks by with a smirk.
" See you at school. "
He says.

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
