Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste Chapter 28


    We’ve been sitting on top of a desk for  approximately five minutes. My eyes stayed glued  on the clock


    as every second ticked by. It was  nerve-racking having to wait for the cops to arrive.


    My hands were folded under my breast, acting as a  protective barrier for what was about to happen. I


    knew I had to eventually exin what transpired  here. But it didn’t make it easier. In fact I felt  revolted


    just thinking about speaking about it.


    The security had been wiping a wet rag over the  boy’s face. He had finally regained his


    consciousness and had started to curse softly when  the man pressed the rag on his cheek.


    ke had been silent but I could sense the anger  that still radiated off of him in waves. I knew he  was


    upset and by the way he red at my  attempted rapist I knew he was still thinking of  ways to murder


    him.


    The sound of the sirens has my skin prickling with  anxiety and I start to sweat profusely.They were


    here. “ke I’m scared.” I whispered for his ears  only. He moves off the desk andes towards


    me, pulling my head to his chest. “It’s okay  bambina. Nothing bad will happen.”


    I know he was trying to ease my worries but even  he didn’t believe his own words. There was no


    a*surance that the cops would believe us or listen  to what happened. For all we knew, the guy could


    e up with the most ridiculous thing and get  away with it.


    “I’m afraid they’ll arrest you-” I choked up  pressing my nose on his ck shirt. “They won’t.”  He


    a*sured brushing a hand down my hair in fort.


    “You two better not be plotting a way out of this.  The cops are here and will get to the bottom of


    whatever happened here.” The security mumbles.


    I tear myself away from ke and look over at the  security. Not once did he think that I was the  victim


    and not the boy he was cleaning up. I  couldn’t me him, I haven’t exactly exined to  him what


    happened.


    “Cops?!” The attempted rapist screeched out. It  was like he now understood what was happening


    around him and he didn’t look a bit happy to hear  the news.


    At that second the door bursts open and in strides  one of the most beautiful cop I’ve ever seen. My


    anxiety and fear diminishes as officer Ryn and  officer Nate enters. ke visibly sighs in relief  when


    he spots his mom and his uncle.


    “ke Tyler Reed what have you done!?” Ryn’s  voice is a mix of annoyance and anger. Behind her,  a


    very amused Nate stifles hisughter. The  security’s face is imprinted with a confused frown.


    “Why do you always think I’m at fault mom?”  ke says with a whine.


    Her eyes narrow. “You’re your father’s child. The  exact replica in every way.” She says in a matter  of


    factly voice and walks over to us. But stops  when she spots the teen boy on the floor with a  barely


    recognizable face.

    “Oh ke, what did you do?” She whispered in  horror.


    ke groans beside me. “I wasn’t the one at fault  this time. This bitch-“


    “Can I speak to you in private officer Ryn?” I asks,  cutting off ke. I knew he was confused but  didn’t


    word it out.


    Ryn’s eyes widen in shock as if just realizing I was  there. Gaining back herposure she nods


    quickly. She nudges to the corner of the room and  says something to Nate before walking over to the


    corner.


    ke hand wrap around my arm, stopping me.”  Do you want me there with you?” He questions in a


    worried tone. I turn to him and send him a  rea*suring smile.


    “It’s okay, I got this.” I answered and strut over to  a waiting Ryn.


    It felt like I was rea*suring myself. I admit I was  afraid to tell anyone what happened. I felt gross  and


    wanted to scrub my skin until it turnt red. But  that’ll have to wait.


    It only took one nce at my tense body and  ruffled hair to have Ryn’s face turned into the  shade of a


    ghost. “Please tell me that’s not what  happened here.” Ites out like a plea and my  eyes fill up with


    tears.


    “Oh God.” Ryn whispered in pity.


    I sucked in a breath and avoided her stare. It now  felt so real. I was now one of those girls who had


    gotten sexually a*saulted and I hated it.” ke  isn’t at fault.” I started and cleared my throat of  the


    lump.


    ” I had stayed back to get some information on a  topic. I was just leaving when he.” I said shakily


    pointing at the guy who now looked scared. “Pulled  me into an empty *sroom and tried to rape


    me.”


    The tears I held back now flowed freely. I finally  got the courage to look at Ryn and see the anger  in


    her eyes. “ke came just in time before the  situation escted.”


    She pulls me into her embrace, stroking my back  tofort me as I sobbed on her uniform. “Oh


    darling, I’m so sorry this happened to you. We’ll  make him pay I promise. “She whispered beside  my


    ear.


    She pulls away and looks at me in worry. “Want  me to call your mom and dad?”


    “No!” I rushed out. “Please don’t make them know  what happened. I want to tell them when I’m  ready.


    Please just don’t involve them.” I pleaded. I


    didn’t know how I would face them knowing that I  was this close to getting raped.


    I felt ashamed that it happened to me. And in a  way I was scared that mom and dad wouldn’t look  at


    me the same again. I just knew they would be  walking on eggshells around me.


    I didn’t want that and I definitely didn’t want to  worry them either. If dad has his way I’d never get  out


    of the house and be homeschooled for the rest  of the semester.


    Ryn’s brows furrowed in confusion. “They’re going  to get involved Ashley when you file a report-“


    I shake my head feeling fear creep up my spine.  “No, no I don’t want that.” I rushed out. Ryn  nches


    back in shock.


    Was I stupid for not making the boy pay for what  he has done? ” Just make him stay away from me


    please, that’s all I want.” I whispered.


    She breathes out and looks at the boy who looks  like he had seen a ghost. Nate had now walked up


    to him and was busy questioning him.


    “Look Ashley, your head isn’t clear right now to  make a decision. I’ll give you time but I would


    advise you to file that report. I do not like that you  don’t want me to inform your parents about this,  but


    promise me that’ll you’ll tell them when you’re  ready.” She says in a stern voice.


    “Well that A*shole doesn’t look like he needs a  hospital but he does look like he needs a prison  cell.”


    She grits out and starts walking over to the  injured boy.


    My eyes widen as I’m quick to follow her. “But I  didn’t file-“


    “He still sexually asaulted you Ashley, he deserves  to be inside a cell. Look I said I’ll keep this away


    from your parents but I never agreed to keep this  attempted rapist a free pas. Now go home and I’ll


    take care of it.” She says and roughly forces the  boy to stand up.


    Turning him around she turns to face her son. “You  did a number on him son. I taught you well.” She


    smirks then goes serious.”Get Ashley home and  start cooking dinner before your dad burns the


    kitchen again. Oh and if your sister needs help  with homework you help her.”


    She turns the boy around roughly and earns a  groan of pain from him. “Doesn’t feel too good  being


    the one helpless now does it little boy?”


    “Ryn you’ll break the guy’s arm.” Nate says in an  amused chuckle.


    “Oops.”
