"Let me go!" Rose
screamed, trying her hardest to push Cal off of her. "I told you...it's
over."
"It'll be over when I say
it's over." Cal slapped her, as hard as he could, across the face.
"You little slut." He began unbuttoning her pink blouse, determined
to take what he believed was his. "You're just a fucking slut."
Rose seemed to be numb with pain.
She had remained a virgin throughout her and Cal's four-month relationship. She
had called him the previous morning to tell him it was over. She could only
take so much of an abusive relationship. Cal had pretended it was okay, that he
understood, and that all he wanted was to talk. She actually believed him.
"Help!" Rose screamed.
She threw her hand at the horn of his car. It barely made a noise. All it
really did was make Cal even angrier than he already was.
"This body is mine." He
rubbed his hands up and down her flesh. "These arms are mine...these tits
are mine!" He roughly moved his mouth from her lips to her breasts.
"Somebody...please...help
me!"
"Shut the fuck up, you dirty
little bitch." Another slap across the face. He put his hands around her
neck, strangling her, trying to make her stay quiet.
He pulled down her pants and
shoved his fingers deep inside of her. "Do you like that, Rose?" He
gave her an evil smile. "Let's see how my big cock will fit in there, huh?
Would you like that? Fucking virgin!"
Just as he was about to enter her,
the driver's side door opened.
"What the..." Cal
almost shot out of his seat. He turned around and saw a blond-haired man
looking down at him.
"Leave her alone!" The
man pulled Cal out of the car by his shirt and punched him across the face. As
soon as Cal hit the ground, the young man looked inside the car again.
"Are you okay?" Rose nodded, tears still in her eyes. "Let's get
you out of here."
As the unknown hero began helping
Rose out of the car, he felt somebody pull him onto the ground.
Rose heard sirens in the
distance.
As the police got there, they
broke up the fight piece by piece and tried to get the truth from the story.
"My girlfriend and I were
just driving along when this maniac opens the door, throws me out of the car,
and tries to rape my girlfriend!" Cal pointed at Rose. "Look what he
did to her!"
Jack shook his head. "No,
officer...I saved her from him!"
The four cops looked over at the
troubled girl. "What happened, miss?"
"He tried to rape me!"
She pointed at Cal. "He was hitting me...he was..." As she again
broke down into tears, one of the officers placed a blanket around her and told
her they would call her parents. "He tried to kill me! He was strangling
me!" Rose managed to get out.
Officer Tanner nudged his boss in
the arm. "Are we gonna take him in?"
He nodded. "Yes, Tanner.
Would you look at this woman? Justice must be done here, son."
"Don't you know who that
is?" Tanner asked.
Officer Storms looked at the
rapist. Of course he knew who he was. Caledon Hockley...the son of the mayor of
Houston, Texas.
As they began to handcuff Cal, he
looked at Jack and said, "You will pay for this!" He looked back at
Rose. "Both of you!" Cal seemed oblivious to the Miranda Rights being
read to him.
One of the cops shoved him into
the backseat of the squad car. "Get in there!" The officer could
smell the alcohol on his breath. He knew that the mayor's only son was only
nineteen years old.
As Officer Storms walked over to
the young woman, his heart broke. Cal had torn off most her clothes, so most all
of her body was exposed. He could see the dark bruises covering her body. The
young man who had saved her was being questioned by one of the other cops.
"Is there anything else I
can do for you?" Officer Storms asked Rose.
She nodded. "Don't let him get
away with this."
Professional, as always, Officer
Storms laid a hand on the girl's shoulder. "I'm gonna do all I can."
