The roaring sound of tyres lurching against dirty sand and a poof of dust fuse to the cold night air when Damien speeds his car at the piercing sound of a gun shot calling the start of the race. I squeal as he takes over and reaches first in the first lap. It wasn't hard to miss his jet black Chevrolet Camaro with two red stripes and the red rims for the tires, fuck it was one hell of a hot car and anyone would've been in their fucking knees seeing who was driving it. That was literally the cherry on top the cake.

"Damn, he's good at this," Jared said beside me thoroughly engulfed in the race.

"Yeah" I said taking a sip from the can of coke and a tad bit of worry takes place when some other car takes over, putting Damien into second place but he accelerates, over taking the neon green car but it wasn't that simple. Who ever was driving it didn't easily give in at all nor did he lower his speed but Damien dangerously got close to the his, cornering it which made the tints of the car screech against border railing, small flames flickered at the connection of the neon car against the metal and it slowed down giving Damien a chance to roar back it's speed and pass the finish line, claiming victory.

We all got on our feet, clapping and hollering his win and me being extra happy and proud girlfriend I step on the bench and jumped over the railing, into the tracks. Noticing all the racing cars had stop it was safe for me to run across the track towards Damien who was stepping out of the car and he spread his arms, catching me mid air when I jumped his bones. He staggers a few steps back but kept me steady as my legs wrap around his torso and my arms around his neck. I place a kiss on his neck before lifting my head from his shoulder.

"Hi," he said with a dimpled smile.

"Hi." I replied back and got down from his hold. He cupped me cheek bringing his lips down towards mine. He keeps an intense stare and as always I inch to capture his lips but moved his back. "I love you but never run across a track like that," he says protectively.

"No car was moving" I tell in my defence.

"Baby a car raced right behind you" he said and I recall hearing that roaring sound.

"Oh, maybe I was too caught up on the thought of kissing the hell out of you"

"Since you risk your life for this kiss." His hands slide from the base of my jaw to my neck and pulled me closer as he devour his mouth against mine. I walk back until my back hits against his car and our kiss deepens as I suck at his bottom lip and a groan escape at the end of his throat which had an immediate reaction in me. Partly knowing we are in public but mostly running out of breathe Damien softly bit my bottom lip before letting go.

"Free porn at it's finest," Jason snickered which made Damien grunt and nuzzle his face at the crook of my neck. "Got to return the favor," I tell him.

"What do you mean?" He asked seriously and I couldn't believe he was going to play dumb at this.

"On serious note though do you and Jennifer have sex or yall just demolish each other?" Damien asked lifting his head and flinging an arm over my shoulder.

"Barking? Seriously?" I added recalling the night that even poor Rex was feeling scared shitless.

"Oh shoo we were just being kinky," Jennifer spoke, before jumping on Jason's back and securing herself by tightly wrapping her legs around his stomach.

"Wait where's Jared?" I asked.

"He's with Em.... poor boy" Jennifer said before speaking again, "Speaking of which," she nudged her head and I turned around to see a wobbling Emma walking towards us and my brother trailing behind.

"Rhe Rhe did I ever tell you how fucking attractive your brother is" she slurred and I internally cringe.

"I second that," Jennifer tells.

"Jennifer!" Jason yelled and she tighten her arms around his neck.

"Chill babe he's thirteen" she tells earning an eye roll from Jason. It is actually weird finding your friends call your thirteen practically minor little brother attractive. I think any sister would.

"So Em what got you all tipsy?" I asked and saying 'tipsy' sarcastically cause this girl is far from tipsy. I wouldn't be surprised to hear she gulped down one whole bottle of alcohol.

"Oh you know nothing much. YEAH! nothing much at all 'cause it's nothing when that one boy you had an an immense crush from vacation comes to see you, yeah nothing." All of us looked at her in confusion trying to understand whatever the hell she was talking about. She mutters some words to herself and started turning around in the spot. While me and Jennifer look at her in somewhat worry, Damien and Jason burst out laughing; of course them being them and I hardly think they are step brothers because the sibling shit they do without their knowing tells me otherwise.

"Honey." I place a hand on her shoulder and my voice made her look up at me like a lost puppy. "We barely understood that," Jennifer tells, now putting a hand around Em's waist, keeping her steady.

"What? The part where I told that my so called ex slapped my ass and kissed me right in front the most sweetest boy I have ever met and have biggest effing crush on. Oh oh and not to mention he bought me daisies" she cried. "Do yall know how much I love daisies? NO! you don't and now my innocent daisies are dying in a garbage bin," she said and dropped to the floor.

"Fucking Shawn," Damien muttered and both the boys stood straight from their previous comfortable position and their fists balled all ready to lunge on Shawn but was stopped by the sound of Jared clicking his tongue.

"Yeah, he's all taken care of" he said leaning against the car and looking anywhere but me.

"What the fuck did you do Jared?" I asked and realised what a stupid question it was when I noticed his bruised knuckles which he suddenly hides from my sight.

"You are thirteen! And you don't go punching people who are basically way older than you, especially when you don't know them because if you mess with wrong person, it's done for! And that asshole right there is the best example and he almost got fucking killed- "

"No one deserves to be touched or kissed without their permission and I did exactly what had to be done. No matter how fucking old I am" he yelled backing matching my previous tone and now I see that Jared has too got his fair share of hot temper from our father; I couldn't complain though. But what he did of course scared me cause I'd be damned before letting anything happen to him and I couldn't help but feel proud. It somewhat makes my heart ache, in a good way I could say at how grown he is and his maturity bearing one of his many charms.

I fucking can't wait to see the man he's going to grow into.

"Rhe if he did anything it was nothing but having my back. Your brother is one hell of a guy" Emma says getting up from the floor with Jennifer's help.

"You two could never," Jen said pointing her finger at both Damien and Jason.

"What the fuck does that mean?" Damien asked her. "Jesus, I was joking. Arent you two the most chivalrous men I've seen my enter my life" she said in a British accent and the hand on her forehead giving an dramatic effect.

"It's almost ten. We going to Lukes?"

"No" Damien said.

"Oh come on Damien get out, have a little fun" Emma said shaking her body in a little dance.

"I am out!"

"I know! You think I'm dumb?" Em yelled and all of us laughed while Damien looked kind of frustrated at her drunk stupidity. "Damien please" she begged giving him her puppy dog eyes. "Just one drink and we are out, please. For me." She even went to an extent on getting on her knees and Damien backs away out of surprise.

"I won't do shit for you" he said and Em made a seriously offended face.

"Jesus you are so mean. And how come Rhea gets the less asshole version of you?" She asked pointing her thumb at me and suddenly I get attentive to hear Damien's answer.

"Because she's going to carry all my babies someday" he too pointed his finger at me and I playfully smack his stomach, trying to hide the wide ass smile creeping up my face. I hate kids but man the thought of having little Damien's and Rhea's running around would be insane. Insane in an awesome way. I didn't even realise Em had got everyone agreed to go to the party because my mind was still getting hyped about babies. Everyone started walking towards their cars while I just stood there, fantasising until two large hands wrap around my stomach from the back and he placed his chin on my shoulder.

"Didn't know babies made you this happy" he said and I realised that I am still smiling like a mad woman.

"Were you serious?" I asked.

"Of course yes, baby. I want to have a whole future with you" he said and I didn't even let the words sink in before I slam my lips against his and I swear this is the most passionate kiss we've ever shared.

***

I get out the car and met up with the others who were standing outside of Luke's house, waiting for us.

"Jared buckle up for your first senior party" Jason said shaking Jared's shoulders.

"We should've dropped him home. He's still thirteen and supposed to be at home reading a comic book or something" I yelled to Jared's departing figure with his middle finger up in the air pointing at me. With a frustrated sigh I walk inside, Damien trailing right behind me.

For once when I hoped it would be a normal house with normal drinks but no. I guess living in this town means only rich house party's with expensive drinks that costs way more than all my clothes. I don't particularly hate these parties but everything could go wrong and the cops won't even show up even if we wanted to. December by Ariana Grande blared through the speakers.

While I was mindlessly walking behind Jason someone knocked onto me and if it wasn't Damien's arms grabbing me I would've taken a whole line of people down with me.

"Oh shit I am so sorry." I was about to yell 'watch where you are going' but didn't because she did apologise and a twelve or thirteen year old doesn't deserve to be yelled by me.

"No, I am fine" I tell the blonde girl who still looks concerned. "I really am fine" I assured her and a smile came up in her face.

"I am Shawn's little sister by the way" she said pointing her hand and I take it but her face grew confused seeing all our reaction to Shawn's mention.

"I know my brother is an ass"

"Damn fuck" Jason muttered and all of us looked at his line of sight which led to a completely busted Shawn with a bruise up his jaw and a blue eye.

"Yeah, I would kiss whoever did that" she said and then I realised that it was Jared. How on earth did he manage to do all that?

"What?" She asked Jason who was widely grinning at her and then at me.

"What?" Jared asked who showed up right in time with a red cup in his hand.

"What are you drinking?" I questioned him.

"Soda" he said and Jason hugged my brother out of the blue and patted his back. I shook my head at Jason's childish absurdity.

"What the hell? Get off of me" Jared said and Jason let go of him and placed both his hands on Jared's shoulder.

"She owes you kiss" he said before storming off, leaving just me, the girl and Jared.

"Fuck no! It was just a figure of speech" she said looking at Jared's smirking face.

"Chill, I wasn't expecting one anyways" he yelled to her who was already walking away, his eyes fixed at her departing figure.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked.

"Nothing" I said partially lifting up my hands in surrender. "Where's Damien?"

"I think he went out" he said and just as I was going to grab his soda my phone vibrated with a text. I take it out of my back pocket and glared at the message.

I contemplated whether to respond and ask who it was but I know how useless would it be considering the amount of calls I have been getting from this exact number in the past few days but no one said anything. The possibility used to be a wrong number but now I think otherwise because who ever it was knows who I am. I ignore the message convinced as its a prank or some dumb thing boys do.

Instead I opened Damien's chat and sent him a text.

(Ignore the time stamps)

I shuffle through the swamp of people and finally met with a free space in the extravagant house. Inhaling a breath of air I dial Emma's number which rung multiple times until it reached her voicemail.

"You made it" a voice called and I turned around to be met with the host himself.

"I had no choice" I tell and his smirking face instantly dropped. What is it with him?

"If you are looking for Emma she's puking her guts out upstairs." Giving him a simple smile as a thank you I climb up the stairs with a groan. Knocking and opening every room in my way hoping that I would find a puking Emma than two or maybe even three people naked and going all about it, I found no luck than witnessing someone's bare ass. Hoping this last room be the one I bring my fist to knock but instead I lean my ear against it hearing low whimpers, light screams and cruel laughters. I grip the doorknob and yank it open before storming inside hoping that I am not going see what I think it is.

I stumble few feet back and my hand flew to my mouth before a "no" escaped my mouth almost as a scream. The three boys turned their head towards me and I walk back until my back hit the wall, tears forming in my eyes and I try not look at the bed beside me.

"Look what the cat dragged in" Devon said who was leaning against the opposite wall, a joint in between his lips and I couldn't even believe that he just stood there and watched just like the two others. He walked towards me and I turned my head towards the bed. My heart felt heavy and so did my whole body. Fear, sadness and complete shock took over as a loud cry escaped my mouth.

"You don't stop" he said standing in front of me to the boy who was on the bed and he did just that. He didn't fucking stop.

"NO!"

"Don't. Please stop" I cried.

"Rhea please save me." Those words rang in my ears and flashbacks of how I cried for safety came back crashing in.

"Make it stop!" I screamed, hitting Devon's chest which was inches away from me and I instantly felt trapped and completely helpless. "You want to save him don't you?" He trailed his finger down my face and turned my head around. All I was met with a crying and screaming Mason who's voice was slowly dying out as that fucking rapist thrusted harder and I felt every single inch of pain Mason is feeling so I screamed. I screamed for him until a hand clasped my mouth muffling my screams.

"Do you?" He asked and I heavily nod my head because it is the truth. I want to save Mason. I need save him but how can I when I am feeling completely powerless right now?

"Then take up his place" he said and my eyes shot open. Fear and disgusted chills ran through my body.

"You don't know how much I fucking missed you" he whispered and his hand which was on my mouth trailed down my neck and tightly gripped my breast. "Stop it, please. Let go of me Devon" I cried because that's all I was able to do, use my voice as my actions were completely helpless but I need to gain control because it's not just my life is at stake but so is Mason's. If I can't save myself I will save him. So I drew every single bit of power I had and pushed off Devon's body who had his lips on my neck. He stumbled a few feet back before gaining his balance. I yanked the lap shade from the night stand and smacked it against his head, glass beads scattered to the floor and so did Devon. One of the boys bent to help Devon as the other came to hold me in place but I lift my knee and hit him right in the crotch, he dropped to the floor with a painful groan.

I screamed for help and pushed the boy who was on top of Mason he didn't have time to defend himself or even realise what the fuck was happening because he was shit faced drunk and of course you had to be to do such a in human and cruel thing. I used the heel in my boots and hit him in the face, blood immediately started flowing as he covered his face in pain. I wanted to hurt him more, I wanted to strangle him until he turns pale white and watch life drains out of his sick soul but my immediate worry was to know whether Mason was okay.

I burry down the nauseous feeling, lookin at his half naked body as he was turned over and blood smeared in the sheets. He curled up, hugging his knees and a loud cry break out and I hurt for him every single bit of the way.

"You bitch!" A loud growl emit behind me and I was yanked to the floor by my hair, Devon's fist came up in the air to punch me but never made it as he was pushed against wall. I couldn't notice whoever it was saving me, as tears pooled in my eyes and the strong force of my head hitting against the floor blurred my vision. I close my eyes and lied down regaining my composure.

"Baby." My eyes flew open at just the sound of his voice and for the first time in the last few minutes I could say I feel safe. I drape my hands around his neck as he lifts me off the floor.

"Did he- "

"No" I said looking at Damien's furious eyes which instantly calms and wanders down my body caughtiously.

"Is he- " I asked eyeing Devon's frail body lying on the floor and I look away at the sight of his brocken hand which had his bones popped out of his skin.

"I don't know baby. We have to get out of here" he said.

"No." I turned towards the bed and so did Damien, his eyes widen.

"Please don't leave me" Mason said in a whisper.

"Rhea are you- " Jason called and so did Jared who stormed into the room and stopped dead in their tracks seeing the blood on the floor flowing from Devon's body and Jason gasped looking at the bed.
