"I was spending the night with my friend...I'd told her I couldn't make it, but then I got my stuff done earlier than expected and changed my mind at the last minute.
Donna had met this guy Taylor a week before, I tried cautioning her you know, but she was crushing hard on him and I guess she let her inhibitions down.
I got to her house, her parents were gone for the weekend, it was the first time they'd ever left her alone, it was supposed to be our last sleep over before college.
We spent the night watching all our favorite movies and making plans for our futures and stuffing ourselves with pizza.
I didn't know that she'd told this guy that she would be home alone..."
She stopped talking and I grew tense, I knew that whatever was coming was going to be bad and tried to prepare for it, my natural instinct would be anger and the need for action, she didn't need to see that right now.
I squeezed her to me, a silent message to go on, I wanted it done, wanted her to tell me all of it so I would know what I was dealing with.
"I got really thirsty after we fell asleep, like around three in the morning I think. I went downstairs to raid the refrigerator, I didn't turn on the light, I'd been there so much I pretty much knew the layout of the whole house.
I got my drink and was on the way back when I heard noises at the door, I was gonna go see who was there, I thought maybe her parents had changed their minds and were coming back home.
Something stopped me from doing that,...I saw them come in, four of them, they were high or drunk I'm not sure which, they were grinning and high fiving each other, they didn't see me."
She started to shake and my heart hurt as my stomach lurched. Fuck.
"They went up the stairs and started opening doors, I grabbed the phone off the hook, that's when I heard her scream."
She was full out shaking, so hard the bed moved, I pulled her even closer and wrapped my arms around her, trying to give her some of my warmth, wishing like fuck that she'd never experienced what she was about to describe.
"They raped her, took turns hurting her and laughing, I can still hear them laughing, I'd dialed 911 without realizing it, the lady on the line kept asking me what was my emergency but I couldn't speak.
Then she screamed for me, Donna, she screamed and screamed and I couldn't do anything, I was frozen in place.
I Think I walked into the wall or something, but I knocked something over and somehow they heard it and one of them ran down the stairs.
He yelled 'fresh meat' up the stairs to the others, they came, they tried...I fought them, I used every trick my dad had ever taught me and I fought, but then they caught me by my hair."
One hand went to her beautiful hair as she gazed off into space, lost in that time, back there where she'd lived her horror.
"They beat me, with their fists...I'd dropped the phone after I banged into the wall, it was still on...by the time they finally got my clothes off the police were there.
When one news reporter asked the operator why she didn't just hang up after I didn't speak, how she knew it wasn't a prank call, she said it was because I'd given her the police code for a rape in progress. I didn't remember doing that.
The phone was still open, she heard everything that was happening to me, that's why the cops got there so fast, I was lucky.
Donna, she, they hurt her so bad, her poor body was broken...she killed herself three days after getting out of the hospital.
Alec was never charged, he was on anti depressants or something like that and they say it made him do things, the other three are awaiting trial."
"You can stop now angel, you don't have to say anymore."
"I'm sorry that happened to you and your friend, sorry you have that in your life, it's going to be okay now."
I held her as my mind raced, what she'd described was beyond horrific, that she would carry that memory for the rest of her life pissed me the fuck off, but my next concern was how the fuck to reach into a jail in Arizona and fuck some shit up.
It was time to reach out to the brotherhood of the bike, my crew is what you might call the gentleman's club of the brotherhood but one hand washes the other, I'll get my feelers out by tomorrow, the three behind bars will have to be dealt with by other hands but Taylor, that little mother fucker was mine.
