Chapter 17 : 3--Who Knew it would be like This--
“Chad!” she managed to yell. The figure came running into the alley followed by another…Troy. They fought with the two boys . Precious escaped from the leaders grip and ran for the mouth of the alley. She was followed by Chad and Troy. She leaned against the building for support.
“Precious.” Chad ran to her.
“C’mon.” Troy yelled running by them. Chad helped Precious to his car. As soon as they were in Troy zoomed off.
Precious sat back and focused on her breathing. Chad called her parents, his mom, and Troys parents. He didn’t tell them what happened just to meet them at the hospital. Precious stared out the window silently crying.

AT THE HOPISTAL
“Oh my God.” Markita exclaimed when she saw her daughter. She ran over to the hospital bed and hugged her. Tears ran down her cheeks. Precious had bruises all over her body. Her face,arms,legs, everywhere.
“Are you alright?” her father asked. She nodded. Mr. and Mrs. Bolton were in the room as well as Troy, Chad, and his mom. Two police men walked in. both male.
“I’m Detective Mathers and this is Detective Johnson.” The older man said. They showed their badges. “We’re going to need to get a full report from all three of you.” Detective Mathers said. “We can do it here if you like.”
“No.” Precious said. Everyone looked at her astonished.
“Sweety are you sure your ready to leave.” Markita asked.
“I’m fine Mom. I just don’t want to stay in a hospital.” She said.
“Very well. Would you like us to escort you to the police station?” Mathers asked.
“no. my mom and dad can take me.” Precious said.
“What about you two.” He asked Chad and Troy. They both refused and wanted to go with there parents too.

AT THE POLICE STATION
Precious was telling everyone what had happened. She’d started at the part where she’d gone to the bus stop.
“I was about to answer the call when I heard someone call out Hey to me. I looked and saw 4 boys. They looked drunk. I got up and began walking the other way. I turned a corner and stopped and called Chad I told him that I was being followed and he asked where I was. I told him I didn’t know and that I was scared.he said everything was going to be okay and asked if there were any street signs or landmarks. I started walking to look and I didn’t see one. I turned another corner and bumped into one of the boys. I could smell the alcohol coming off him. He said hey sweetness. I turned and ran the way I’d come. I told Chad to help me and he promised nothing would happen to me. Then two more boys came around the corner in front of me. I stopped running and looked back. They were closing in on me. Before I could do anything someone grabbed me from behind. I struggled and they took away my phone and they put something to my throat and told me to shut up or they’d kill me so I did. The leader talked to Chad and told him that I was busy and couldn’t come to the phone and to leave a message. Chad said something but I couldn’t hear. The leader laughed and gave the phone to one of the other boys and told him to get rid of it. he dragged me farther into the alley and told the other two to keep watch. He tried to rape me but I fought him off the whole time until Chad and Troy came and then I escaped and we got in the car and left as fast as we could.” She was trying not to cry by the end.
“did you see what any of the boys looked like?” Mathers asked.
“No.” she replied.
“not even the one that tried to rape you?” he asked.
“No.” she replied wiping tears from her cheeks.
“Why did you run away?” Mathers asked.
“Because. I heard Troy and Chad talking and I got mad and I just wanted to leave.” She responded truthfully. Chad put his head in his hands. His mom rubbed his back soothingly. Troy just sat like a robot staring at the floor.
“Can I go home now?” Precious asked wiping more tears.
“Of course.” Mathers said. Everyone got up to leave. “if she remembers anything give me a call.” Mathers told Julio. Precious was heading to ther car when Chad called her back.
“are you alright?” he asked her.
“no.” she responded
“me either.” He told her. “I’m really sorry.” He said.
“me too.” she said and got in the car and went home.

Chad slammed his laptop shut and layed down. He really liked Precious. He could tell. When she was missing it felt like he was falling apart. He was amazed at the effect she had on him so quickly. You can’t help who you like. He lay there thinking until his mom knocked on his door.
