I smile back at them. 

"Well look who was nervous over nothing," A says with a smile. 

Liam hands me the case for the mouth guard. I take it from him and take out my mouth guard, putting it in the case. I quickly spit out a bunch of blood I had held in my mouth to the side and look back to them.

"You'll live," A says patting my shoulder.

"Nice job Tori," Liam says passing me an envelope.

I quickly put it in my pocket.

"I suggest you get to the hospital," One of the medics says as he looks over my hand.

"What's wrong?" Liam asks coming over.

"Looks like she shattered these two knuckles." He says pointing to two of my knuckles that are red and bruised.

"She be able to fight?" Liam asks.

"I suggest not until this hand heals up."

"You punched him hard enough that you broke your own hand?" A says while raising an eyebrow.

I shrug my shoulders. It stings but nothing like my back.

"Make a fist."

I close my hand.

"Flatten it out."

I spread out my hand.

"Could either be a sprain or broken and you just don't feel pain."

I soon see Leo and his girlfriend walk up.

"Didn't know you came to these fights," Gray says turning to him.

"I usually end up leaving right after, where's Beth?" He says.

"She not home?" L.J. says puzzled.

"No, she heads out around six thirty every night. Figured it was to hang out with you guys."

"She told us she had to be home before seven and that's why she doesn't come with us."

"Well, she's not with me or at home."

Alan looks to me. He knows my secret. He know's that it's pretty easy to put two and two together. I have to speak up.

"She's out doing stuff," I say raspily.

"You know where she is?" Gray says as they all turn to me.

"I go with her usually after a fight."

"So where is she?" A says crossing his arms.

"Doing stuff, let a girl have her secrets."

"What kind of stuff?" Alan says trying to play along with the guys.

"Cool your tits she's not doing anything illegal," I say running out of breath at the end.

I'm surprised how different my voice sounds. And they all looked surprised by what I said. I see Alan have to stifle a laugh though.

"Alright then," Mason says smirking at me.

"You know Beth?" Leo says looking at me.

I nod my head.

"That nerd really does have secrets," Trever says.

"Good at hiding them too," A says.

"There's blood on her back," Liam says looking from me to the medic.

They all look to me.

"Go ahead and stand up." A female medic says as she sets down a med kit.

I grab onto the wall to help steady myself and are careful not to move my back. 

"Come with me, I'll make sure you didn't break anything." She says grabbing my arm to help steady myself.

We walk to the girl's locker room and over to the mirrors. 

"You good with sliding off your hoodie?"

I nod my head and carefully slide it over my head.

"Alright, well by the amount of blood it seems to not look so good." She says as she carefully slides up the back of my shirt.

She quickly gasps and pulls back down my shirt. She puts her hands to her mouth and I turn to her.

"Honey...I recommend you get to a hospital right away. It looks as if someone had just taken a whip and some rocks to your back. Are you alright? I mean, do you want a painkiller?"

I shake my head no. Being beaten up every day builds up a pain tolerance I guess.

"Go ahead and slide back on your hoodie."

I slide it back on and are careful not to mess with my shoulder blades. I have my balance back some and her and I walk back out. They all turn to us and she looks to Liam and the rest of us.

"It looks as if someone took a whip to her back after hitting her with rocks. I don't even know how she is standing right now. I suggest no more fighting for a least a month." She says crossing her arms. 

They all look to me.

"A month?" Liam questions.

"It should be more like two months but if you put this girl in another fight in the next thirty days I will call her out as not able to fight and cause you to forfeit. So I suggest you let her rest for awhile." She says before walking off.

"Alright then," Liam says sighing.

I smirk at the guys as they look to me, surprised.

"I need to get going," I say raspily.

"Alright, see ya later Tori," Liam says sighing.

I walk out of the crowd and are surprised to not be met with Henry or his group. 

I smile as I grab my other jacket but as I go to turn around I am quickly pinned to the wall with my hands above my head and I close my eyes as I wince from the sharp rocky wall against my back.

I clench my hand only making pain shoot throughout my knuckles.

I open my eyes from the shock and quickly feel someone push their lips to mine. Forcing my head against the wall and holding me there. I see that it's Henry and struggle from his grip, he is using one hand to hold my arms above my head and another to hold my face in place.

I can't move and pain spreads through my body as fear fills me. It all happened so quickly. I can't even close my mouth. Tears fill my eyes and roll down my cheeks as what may happen fill my mind.  

I try to move but his body is on mine keeping me from budging and he is stepping on my feet to keep me from kicking him. I try to scream, but it would be muffled if all that came out wasn't just pathetic cries.

He presses himself against me harder and pushes his mouth harder onto mine, making me choke on my tears and try to cry for help.

He pulls off my hoodie and as it comes over my head I take in air greedily before his mouth is back on mine. His breath makes it hard to breathe and sends chills down my spine and more tears down my face. He drops my hoodie off to the side and uses just his face to hold mine in place as I feel him tie my hands. 

More warm tears run down my face as I struggle to get away and try to scream for help. Once he finishes tying my hands together he holds my arms above my head with his bicep, hanging his hand down to hold my face in place. 

"Calm down Bethy, just let it happen." He mumbles as he continues to hold me there.

I cry even harder as I try to fight him but he is using his entire body to hold me there. He rips my shirt enough at the shoulder to make it fall down my shoulder with the hand that used to hold my face.

I hear someone walking this way and pray that it's the guys looking for me. But it's not and he moans as he reaches at my shorts. He puts his hand under the side of it and his cold calloused hands making me cry harder as he touches my thigh.

Till I hear someone else come up.

I look over from the corner of my blurry eyes and see Mason standing there as the guys including Leo and his girlfriend show up after him as Mason comes over, furious. Henry doesn't seem to notice till Mason punches him, quickly sending him to the ground.

 I breathe quickly as tears fall down my face and I quickly bring my arms down to my chest and back up from Henry towards the guys as I sob. And they all have that deadly look that goes right past me. My eyes and hair only covered by my beanie he neglected to take off.

My shirt falls down my bare shoulder as my bra strap had snapped somewhere in the process. I know some of my hair is out of place and showing the real color and only my eyes are hidden because of the beanie.

I back up to the guys as Alan heads over there to help Mason beat Henry. Gray wraps his arms around me as A cut's the zip ties around my wrist. Trever quickly hands me my black hoodie and I slide it on and put up the hood as Gray holds onto me and we watch Alan and Mason beat Henry.

After a few seconds, he's already unconscious. Gray holds onto me as tears fall down my face and I continue to cry. Mason and Alan soon stand up and begin to walk back over. I quickly run over to Mason and wrap my arms around his neck, going on my toes and hugging him.

He wraps his arms around my back as I bury my head into his neck as tears fall down my face, sliding down between my nose and cheek, under my beanie.

"You alright?" He whispers as the others walk over.

I nod my head as I let go and he let's go of me. I let out a shaky breath. My stomach and throat are in knots as I try to not collapse into tears and continue to cry.

"Any of his buddies here?" Trever asks.

I shrug my shoulders as I cross my arms over my chest, uncomfortable that this hoodie is the only thing hiding my half-open bra.

"Want us to give you a ride to the police station?" Trever asks.

I think for a moment. They will question me on where I was and how it happened. And it would most likely end up on the news like every other case like this. 

I don't think I could handle that. And, I'm not sure anyone would even believe a teen blonde girl wearing a hoodie with red eyes. Probably think I was high before they even consider the truth. Even if the guys could be there to back me up.

I'm scared.

What happens when he has the next opportunity if the guys aren't around and he is mad that I got him in trouble?

I shake my head no and sigh shakily.

"You want a ride home then?" Mason offers.

I shake my head no. They can't know who I really am.

"Alright, then we'll drop you off near your house then," Gray says.

I sigh, "sure."

They smile sympathetically at me.

"C'mon," Mason says motioning for me to follow him.

I follow them and put my hood lower over my head and beanie as we walk over to their cars.

"She can ride with me," Mason says as we reach his car first.

The guy's nod and I get into the passenger's seat of Mason's car. He jumps in and starts it, backing out.

"You sure you don't wanna go to the cops?"

"Yeah," I say raspily.

"And you're sure your alright?"

"Yeah, thanks," I say looking over to him.

"Where am I dropping you off?"

I think for a moment.

"Acorn street?"

"Alright."

The street isn't super far from my house but definitely far enough.

The car ride is mostly silent till we come closer to the street and Mason speaks up.

"So why do you trust us so much?"

"You guys have stood up for me and you just beat a guy till he was unconscious to protect me. I trust you guys more than a lot of other people."

"So you gonna show up to the fights again?"

"I'm not gonna let that guy stop me from coming, that would just mean that he won."

"That's one way to look at it," he says smiling at me. But I can see the worry swirling in his eyes.

We soon pull up to the street and all the guys follow behind us.

"Thanks, Mason," I say before stepping out.

I close the door behind me and wave bye to them as they drive off. I turn and walk to my house the long way and as I go through an empty area I change out my hoodies. When I finally make it to the gravel road leading to the house I sigh.

I feel disgusting. All I want to do is go take a long hot shower for hours. I feel nasty and just thinking about what happened makes me want to cry. I slide off my beanie and stick it in my backpack.

I walk in the door and Leo shows up. I keep from showing him my face though by wearing my hood.

"And where were you? Don't lie, I know you weren't with the guys either."

"I was at my job."

"Job, really?"

"Yeah, I used to do it to help out my old family, they still needed a babysitter."

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"Cause it never came up, what did you do tonight?"

"Went to a fight club with my girlfriend and saw your guys there, saving a champion fighter from getting raped." He says casually.

I get irritated at how calmly he said it. I mean he doesn't know it was me but still...that shouldn't be something that someone can say so casually.

"Tori?!"

"Yeah, guys said you knew her."

"I gotta go," I say rushing up the stairs.

I use that as an excuse to just get out of that conversation.

I quickly grab a new pair of clothes and rush to the shower. I make no hesitation to turn it to hot. The water turns red as it hits my back, face, and arms and I wince as it stings. But I would rather go through this pain a million times then have to deal with what had just happened once.

I feel absolutely nasty. I end up making my skin turn red from the extremely hot water but I continue to wash off till my body feels numb and sore just wanting to feel clean.

When I finally step out I just want to take another shower. I had to be careful drying off and getting dressed as my entire body stings and hurts. I grab a first aid kit and bandage up the most cut open parts of my face and parts of my back as blood droplets run down.

I sigh when I finish and clean up before going to my bed. I can lay there with my eyes closed as long as I want but I can not sleep. I just silently soak my pillow till I feel dizzy.
