Our Secrets ((GxG))

[Zotohxan]

(( ;-; I'm sorry... Maybe try taking a nap after your medicine?))


I look over at Jess as well, everything suddenly clicking in my mind. When Jess said her brother had done it to her as well... He's been doing it to her for fourteen years?!


She gives a weak smile and shrugs, "I'll be fine. Just not exactly enjoying the fact I'll have to go in and tell the cops everything." Suddenly her eyes widen in fear, "Fuck... Fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCK!" She shouts, reaching up to tug at her hair. "I have to tell them everything...." She says, her voice slightly breathless. Meaning... She'll have to tell them that she's been dealing drugs since she was thirteen, and stripping since she was fifteen... No doubt they'll do a drug test and find out she's got marijuana in her system from last night.. "Fuck.." She felt tears threaten to leave her eyes and I honestly don't know what comes over me...


I don't think I'm in my right mind today. Because I walk right forward, and once again, wrap my arms around her. "They'll know it's not your fault... And Rosaline and Lori will make sure you aren't punished wrongly, okay?" In truth, I don't know the whole story, obviously... But I do know that by the terror in her eyes, yet the fact that she's not running, means it really wasn't her choice to get into everything she has.

(( Maybe >< If I get tired enough >> ))


I chewed some at my lip when Jess started to freak out, understanding why. It was the same reason I'd be scared to go to the police in the first place. "Mir's right...We'll make sure you wont get into too much trouble... You're as much of a victim as Mir is." When Mir went over and hugged her, I relaxed some, glad that Jess hadn't freaked her out too much with her playing around earlier. I scooted over and wrapped an arm around her too, kissing her head lightly. "You're going to be okay...you both are going to be okay."


Maybe if things went over well enough with Jess' back story, I'd come forward about the guys at school. Hell, if they could sweep deal drugs under the table, why not a little assault too? When Rosaline walked back over, I leaned back some from Jess, looking at the woman questioningly. "What'd they have to say?" I asked her, pushing a hand through my hair.

 

[Zotohxan]

((Well I do hope it gets quiet and you can get feeling better soon. ;w; ))


I pull back as well when Rosaline and Lori come back, looking at them nervously. "Well," Rosaline starts off, "First things first we've got to take Jess up to the precinct so she can give her statement. We can't officially start looking for Micheal until that's done. But they do have a more recent mugshot of him on file and patrol cars have his description to keep on the look out in the meantime."


Jess swallows hard and looks between Teag and I before looking at the officers. "Um.. They said that you're helping Teagan, right..?" Rosaline nods, "We are?"


"Well..." Jess takes in a deep breath, "My brother... He kinda.. Got me into some pretty bad things, ever since I was young... And if I have to tell everything about him, then I'll have to tell about this stuff, and I just... I can't go to jail... I went to juvy once as a kid and almost died in there, no way would I be able to handle the real thing..." Again I saw the terror in her eye, and apparently the officers did as well because Rosaline lets out a small sigh and nods, "Well.. If your brother made you to do it, it's not really your fault... But we'll go through everything once we get you to the station and get through your statement, okay?"

 

[Memster101]

(( I did nap :3 Ahh, my brain died ><))


The more everyone talked, the more I realized the day wouldn't be over for me yet. Jess would need a ride back to my place and Mir had no way to if she was out getting her stuff. Mentally, I groaned and gave Jess' shoulder a gentle squeeze. "You guys are wanting to do that now?" I asked them,as casually as possible. Maybe I'd stay back and grab some of Mir and I's homework so that we could get started on that, then meet Jess there. I could also look at the office and see if they had papers to transfer Mir to online schooling.

 

[Zotohxan]

((I've noticed that this is one of my longest-running RPs where we've gone so far, and still haven't overcome one of the story's climaxes... It's amazing. x'D))


Rosaline nods, "The sooner the better. If we can catch this guy, then there's far less of a chance he could do this to someone else. Or even the same person, again."


Even though she was vague about it, I knew the last bit of Rosaline's statement was toward both Jess and I... Even if he'd done it to other girls, she was thinking he'd come after me or her first. But I don't panic... I force myself not to. I think of Teag, of how she doesn't deserve to go through that again. And I think of Jess who's able to stay calm despite having gone through what I went through once, for fourteen years. I think of the officers who need to hear her side so that they can catch him, and how I'll just hold them up if I panic.


So while I do wrap my arms around my torso to try and minimize the shaking, and while my breaths are shallow and quick, I keep myself tuned into what's happening now, and don't actually panic. 'I'm okay,' I repeat to myself, over and over in my head.

 

[Memster101]

(( That's cool! I've had a few rps last quite a long time but this is the longest I've had in a while :3 ))


I nodded some when Rosaline states this, knowing we would all just have to deal with what was coming. A glance at Mir made me frown some when I saw she was starting to have some more issues, wishing there was a way I could help her. Smoothing a hand through my hair, I turned to look at Lori as she started to speak. "Well, I think what we might want is I'll take you, Teagan, and Jess to the precinct and Rosaline can go help you start to get your stuff, Miranda?" She offered, looking over to Rosaline to get her input.


I agreed that Mir shouldn't probably be involved with this, nor was I ever sure if Jess wanted me to come with, let alone Mir. We'd never talked in detail about what had happened to her with Michael before and maybe she wouldn't want to start now? I chewed at my lip some, looking down at my shoes as I waited for everyones' two cents on the matter.

 

[Zotohxan]

((I think the longest one I ever had was with a few friends of mine, and it spanned over a year x'D


Even though we'd RP for hours on end almost every day..))


Rosaline nods in agreement, then looks to the rest of us for our input. Though I'd only vaguely heard thanks to trying to ward off my panic, I got the gist of it, and I nod. I wouldn't be even close to being able to verbally reply for a few minutes, I know that much... I notice Jess looking at me Sadly, then she walks over and hugs me again. "I think we're all okay with that... And Teagan, you can come either with me or Miranda.. It doesn't matter to me."


I still can't quite believe how calm feeling Jess around me makes me... Silently I blame it on her 'magic fingers', the way she can make me... Excited by just touching me. But then again it may be as I'd thought before, and it may just be because we've gone through the same thing, by the same person. That's got to form some sort of bond between us, right? Ugh... I never thought I'd in a million years say I had any sort of bond with the girl who gets my girlfriend high then has sex with her... But, a first time for everything, right?

 

[Memster101]

(( That's pretty cool! I had one kind of going on and off with a person for about the same time :3 ))


"I think I'll go with you Jess, I'm still not feeling to hot," I excused, running a hand through my hair as I kept my eyes down. I felt horrible for choosing Jess over Mir, but the not feeling good part was pretty much the truth. I honestly didn't think I'd have been much help. Hopefully Mir would be okay though...Or at least if she had an attack, Rosaline could help her through it. Getting up, I rummaged around in my car for a moment before pulling out one of Mir's inhalers, handing it over to the brunette officer. "Just in case. This usually can get the job done if she has an asthma attack, but if that doesn't seem to be helping, just put her hand on your chest or lean her back against you so she can feel you breathing," I informed Rosaline, giving a slight smile.


That done, I leaned back against the car, looking over to Lori and Jess. "I guess that means we're heading off now? I can drive us over," I suggested to Lori, though felt like doing anything but driving. Another glance at Jess served to check on how she was holding up, which seemed better than Mir- but of course she had years of practice. "Do you need to do anything before we go, Jess?"

 

[Zotohxan]

((That's awesome. owo))


Rosaline smiles and pockets my inhaler, then gestures me over. "Let's get going, Miranda." I nod, then smile softly over at Teag, my arms still wrapped around myself. "Feel better, okay?" I walk over and kiss her cheek before going with Rosaline to her car.


Jess bites her bottom lip and shakes her head, then looks between Teag and Lori. "Um.. Maybe you should let Lori drive, Teagan? I don't really think you're in the best place right now to do it yourself..." She walks over and wraps her arm around my girlfriend's waist, though as I climb into Rosaline's car, I'm pretty sure it's mostly to keep herself composed...


"How're you holding up?" Rosaline's voice as we drive out of the parking lot pulls me from my thoughts and I look at her with a weary smile. "I'm okay... I've fended off two panic attacks today, so.. I think I'm starting to do better..."

 

[Memster101]

(( Ahh,sorry! I was hanging out with a friend all day :3 And sorry, I'm really brain dead again >< ))


I smiled slightly and nodded to her advice, motioning for Lori to take a seat in the driver's seat. "I suppose you're right," I mused some, setting an arm around Jess' shoulders. My eyes trailed off after the police car as Mir drove off, frowning some. I felt as if I should have gone with them but knew that it was better for all of us if I stayed back with Jess. Lori stepped into the vehicle, seeing how sickly I looked thus answering any questions I might have had. Taking my spot in the passenger seat, I reminded myself to buckle in, and watched as we started to head off towards the station- once Jess was in of course.

 

[Zotohxan]

((Aah, no, you're totally fine! x3 And don't worry, I've been brain dead practically all day as well ;-; ))


"So, um.. What exactly goes into the whole statement thing..? I've only ever been booked before.. I don't know how all this works.." The 21 year old was almost trembling with her nervousness, especially with the fact she'd have to tell them about the stripping, and the drug deals...The fights, the gang activity she was in for a time... All in all, this would likely not turn out well for her.

 

[Memster101]

(( Awe >< That's rough. And yeah... ^^* ))


"Well, you're just going to have to tell us about Michael really...your history with him," Lori replied, glancing at the slightly younger girl in the rear view mirror. "Don't worry, if you need breaks, we can take them, or do anything to make your process easier." Reaching back some, I found Jess' hand and squeeze it gently. I wished there was a way to help calm her down some...Chewing at my lip, I settled back against the seat, trying to hide my yawn.

 

[Zotohxan]

((Okay.. So apparently it never alerted me for this reply >.>))


Jess takes a deep breath and nods, smiling thankfully at me. "I understand... I will have to go all the way back, won't I?" Her voice was a bit more apprehensive while asking that question, but it's clear she's begun to make her peace with the fact that she would have to tell perfect strangers, and her friend of three years, everything that her brother had forced her into.. And though it was still a terrifying prospect, she knew it'd have to be done.


A moment later a voice comes through the police radio, stating they'd spotted a man heading down North Harden Street. Jess' eyes go wide in horror, "Get him... Now.. Tell them to get him, that's where he goes for drugs... And he was telling me about this girl who lives down there; she's fourteen... Please, they have to pick him up, now." Her voice was stern despite talking to a cop, and her heart was racing in panic. She couldn't let him hurt anyone else... Especially not someone so young.

 

[Memster101]

((Awe and oh my god I think I have a crush >>~ ))


Lori frowned some, knowing that they were right by the place but that it wasn't exactly standers to go ahead and pick up a perp in a civilian's car. "I can't take him in...but I can try and detain him until another officer comes with an actual car." My heart skipped a beat at the news and I looked back to Jess, grabbing her hand more firmly now. "Oh god...Rosaline probably has her radio on as well," I murmured. Mir would have heard the news... Would Rosaline be dumb enough to take Mir with her to go after Michael? Lori nodded in comfirmation, taking her radio from her belt. "I'm off duty, but I'm right near there. I'll stop over and secure the situation until someone else can come," She radioed in, looking fairly grim as she started to head in that direction.


Leaning back in my seat, I tried to comprehend what all was going on. I knew Michael wouldn't come out easily...some how we'd have to lure him out...It would look suspicious if Jess came in after just leaving...The people down there knew me as a frequent customer, I could go in, some how get him out. "I'll get him to come out..." Maybe if I had a few moments to him by myself...I could get some revenge for Mir. "Everyone will go bat shit if you go in, Lori...And Jess, he'll know something is up..."

 

[Zotohxan]

((Oooooh~ And what's she like? owo))


Jess swallows hard, "I know you've been down there before Teagan, but.. It's really dangerous.. Especially if Micheal's down there, you know how he was last night.." She bites her bottom lip, her hands between her thighs to hide their trembling. She then looks to Lori, "That's right, right? It's too dangerous..." She wasn't sure how the officer would react, and deep down she knew Teag was right... It'd be far too suspicious for the sister who'd just left to comfort her friend to appear, and someone new... A cop, yeah... That definitely wouldn't turn out well.

 

[Memster101]

.(( It's actually a girl who's transitioning to a guy. His name is Sam, we met at the dance Saturday, and oh my god he's so cute and ugh >< Feels, how do I handle them >> It's so weird to say he too! ))


Lori looked over at me, frowning some. Clearly she didn't like the idea, but knew that it was the best front they had. "It will be dangerous...extremely dangerous," She sighed, smoothing a hand through her hair as the building started to come into view. "But Teagan's right...it's the best option." I could feel a horrid dread rising in my gut, but I pushed it away. If anyone asked why he was all beaten up, I could just say self defense. Jess would be..upset, knowing the real reason behind the instant we got alone, but I think on some level she'd understand. This seemed like the one way I could help restore Mir's honor...or sense of safety. Help her to actually believe that I could keep her safe.


We pulled into the parking lot and came to a halt, the elder woman turning to face me. "Just get in an out as fast as you can, Teagan, okay? No funny stuff." She searched my face, her lips pressed in a grim line. I nodded, though had no intention of doing such. "I'll be back before you know it," I assured, giving a faint smile. I slid out of the car before Jess had a chance to read into anything, trying to head casually into the building.

 

[Zotohxan]

((x3 Well, are you keeping in touch with him? Switch numbers or anything? *Joyous dance because I totally told you to meet some fine ass people and you totally did~*))


Jess watches nervously, clutching the head rest in front of her desperately as she watches Teagan head toward the house. "She better be fucking smart.."


Inside the house there were people everywhere, some high, some drunk, some a mixture of the two. There were people grinding, people having full-out sex, people passed out, and people only just arrived. Micheal, however, was no where to be found. Presumably he would be upstairs, dealing with some of the more 'risque' visitors i order to get whatever he'd like in the way of illegal substances. He had quite the habit of that, anyway.

 

[Memster101]

(( Yeah! He actually had me add him on snap chat and then had me give him my number. ^^* He walked me to my car cause it was parked a block or so down and it was late/down town and then when I dropped him off at his car he asked if I wanted to hang out the next day! We got coffee and watched movies all day and now we're going swimming Thursday- or just hanging depending on if my period clears up (tmi D. Ahhhh! *does happy dance with* And lord is he fine! ))


Jess had only brought me here a couple of times when we were looking for some heavier stuff aside from weed, but I knew the gist of the place well enough to know that the more risque things happened up in the top portion. As easily as I could, trying to ignore the promptings of people to come join in their various 'activities'. Eventually, I made it to the highest level and leaned back against the wall, knowing that there was no way I was getting into the room without a good reason. So I'd wait for him to come out, which hopefully wouldn't be too long.

 

[Zotohxan]

((That's so cute! x3 I'm glad you've found him, he seems awesome. -w- And I hope it does clear up then, so you can just go have fun! owo))


It takes maybe ten minutes before Micheal walks out, stuffing a baggie into his pocket and lifting a joint to his lips. However, when he catches sight of Teagan, he can't help but smirk. "Oh. What have we here?" He asks, walking up to her and trailing his fingers down her cheek. "Little sister's little friend just couldn't stay away, huh?" He snickers, "Nope...They never can." He leans in and places a sloppy, drunken kiss to her jaw. "Since you're Jess' friend, does that mean you'll be mighty feisty too? Oh, god... I love when she'd try to get me off. Start screaming and acting if she didn't like it." He starts laughing, the alcohol on his breath fanning Teagan's face generously, "It always made things more exciting."

 

[Memster101]

(( ^^* I just have no clue if he's one of those really nice people or what! The night of the dance I kind of forgot he could see my snap chats and I posted that there was a cutie here and he teased me about it for awhile but, I dunno. >< I just kind of hope he isn't one of those crazy nice people! ))


Despite the bile I felt rise in my throat as he kissed at my jaw, at his words, I forced it down and leaned slightly in to his touch. "If we're doing anything anywhere, it's not here," I informed him, letting my eyes glimmer some as a sly smirk came to my lips. "And you're doing what i say." Pushing him back, non too gently, I stepped away from him, starting my journey down the hall. The best bet for us was for me to get him into the alley way so that after I was done with my fun, I could have Lori hurry over once she saw there was signs of trouble. Or call them.

 

[Zotohxan]

((Whelp.. Let us hope he's just nice, without the bad crazy! x3))


Micheal grins and nods, following easily after Teagan. "Where've you got in mind, sexy baby?" He walks up behind her and grabs her hips, his fingers digging painfully toward the bone. He then pulls her to a stop and pushes his front fully against her back, leaning down to kiss and suck on her neck. "Mmm. Sexy, I don't know if I can wait. They got plenty 'a rooms here we can stop off in. I'll have you in, screamin' my name, and out before ya even know what hit'cha."

 

[Memster101]

(( Agreed x3 How are you and your crush??))


I fought back a grimace, leaning back against him provocatively, faking an intake of excited breath. "I was thinking something a little more..interesting," I murmured, breathlessly, grabbing his hands and bringing them to my chest. "We can go back to my house...I just got a good stash just waiting to be smoked. Maybe we could invite Jess." After a moment I pushed his hands away, turning around so I was facing him, an inviting smirk again playing on my lips.

 

[Zotohxan]

((<w< I thought I'd told you.. I'm kind of dating her, now ;w; ))


Micheal licks his lips, "Sounds good." He leans down and runs his tongue across Teagan's lips before pulling back, "Call her, won't ya? Have her on the way." He snickers, "I think you'll like what I can do to the two of ya at once. I've practiced many years... I know her little body inside and out, and I'll have fun figuring yours out the same." He leans down and roughly grabs Teagan's hips, his lips connecting with hers sloppily. A few doors can be heard opening and some wolf-whistles and whoops sound, but otherwise, the house is silent on the upper level.

 

[Memster101]

((Ahhh! What?? That's so exciting! How did that come about??))


God he was an awful kisser. For how skilled Jess was, he was ten times worse in every way. All he thought about was the end game...not the build up. Some how I managed to kiss him back though, keeping it brief and almost teasingly like. "I'll do that right now. What are you waiting for, let's go," I mused, stepping back once again from his grasp. I walked quickly down the stairs, glancing back every so often to make sure he was following while I called Jess. "Hey love, I've got a surprise for you at my place that I think you'll really like...." I pretended to muse, my voice soft and seductive. "I'm just getting it for you. I'll be out of the building and heading home in just a few minutes...So.. hurry."

 

[Zotohxan]

((x3 Well I was hanging out at her house for a bit, and I'd bought her this necklace... And after we'd had a day out and got back to her house and she was just messing with her makeup when I went up to her and made this cheesy, mushy tiny speech thing about buying it for her because I liked her and I was trying to be the 'cliche movie boyfriend'... Which, we'd joke like that sort of stuff a lot. So she just kinda hugged me and hug the necklace up, and after a few minutes I finally got my nerve to say, "You know.. I wasn't joking about that.." And she just kinda blushed and got all high pitched and cute and said, "You like me?!" Then I got all nervous and nodded, and she tackle-hugged me while screaming that she liked me to.


So, VOILA! x3 It's pretty effing cliche from beginning to end xD ))


Jess had the phone on speaker when Teagan calls, and she looks urgently at Lori. "Please go get her... I don't want her alone with him, he probably had her call to try and set up something.. Horrible. I don't even want to imagine, so.. Please. He'll either take her out the front or out the back alley, but either way he'll end up going behind the house to get away, I know it... It's the best way toward her house."


Micheal walks down the stairs behind Teagan, that disgusting grin on his face. "Oh baby, I love the way you talk to her. So demanding." He licks his lips, "I can't wait 'till I have both of ya screaming for me."
