Chapter 21
LiamIt is breaking my heart that someone has violated Tammy. No girl deserves it especially not Tammy. She is pure and sweet with a heart of gold and when I find out who did this to her, not only will he have no teeth left, we are going to make sure he gets put away. He can experience what it’s like to have your rights taken from you, to be behind bars and only see so much daylight a day. That fucker is going to pay.I’ve driven the girls to mine, my mom is at home. Willow, Tammy’s sister will be at school. Her parents are not at home but we have at least calmed Tammy down and ensured she’s made a call to her parents. Which of course went straight to their voicemail. They’re in New York at some gala charity function tonight but the least they can do is pick up her message and call their daughter back. Don’t they realize how special she is?“What’s happened? Why aren’t you in school?” My mom’s voice is accusatory as she looks from me to Tate then her eyes fix on Tammy. It’s obvious so

Tate“I feel sick.” I say to Liam as we get back into his pickup.“Me too, Tate. I’m so angry I just want to punch his face in and stop him from breathing.” I can see he is seething as his knuckles go white from gripping the steering wheel.“Don’t do anything stupid, Liam. Let the police handle it. You’ve got to think of college and football. Don’t let some prick get the better of you and ruin the rest of your life.” I know I sound like his mother but it’s only because I care for Liam. We all already know I am in love with him, with my best friend. Now and Forever.He doesn’t reply, instead he just backs away from the house, turns the car and starts to drive us into school. It’s not the first time I have witnessed this ice coldness from Liam. It’s a sign that he is more than angry, he is as mad as hell. And I get that. We’re all angry, we’re all upset. We’re all dying a bit inside for what has happened to Tammy.He is so quiet that I want to reach out and squeeze his hand, I want to d

Liam I am so pissed off with what has happened to Tammy. Anger is burning in my veins and I want to rip the fucker’s head off who did this to her. I’m also really pissed off that Tate and I have to skip the Oregon trip. I was damn well looking forward to taking her there and having some special time with her. She does so much for me that I wanted to give her something back. It feels ages since we’ve done anything just the two of us as best friends that doesn’t revolve around the others, school and practice. Maybe I need a break. It’s been intense. I’m sitting in history class and so far haven’t absorbed anything the teacher has said. I rarely do, how I’ve managed to pass any of the exams for this subject is beyond me. It’s really not my thing. To be honest most of school isn’t my thing. Only I want to play football so I have to suck it up. Denver on the other hand is a natural born student, as are Tate and Lilly. Sure I used to love school when I was a kid, up until it all started g

Tate The rest of school was a drag only because I wanted to know what the hell Liam was really up to. I bet it had something to do with Tammy. I’ve called her a couple of times but it has gone into her voicemail. She will call back when she is ready. My instinct is to go over to her house after dinner and sod the assignment and movies with Liam. I know he’s my bestie but right now, Tammy needs Lilly and I more. We’re her closest friends. I wonder if her parents even bothered to get back to her and how little Willow is doing. She’s such a beautiful and happy child, that it saddens me to think her parents will be too busy for her as she grows up. Right now she seems unaffected as she has a lot of nursery school friends and her nanny who dotes on her. Then she does have Tammy, Lilly and myself. We all love Willow, it would be difficult not to. However, we cannot replace her parents, although part of me reasons that what you’ve never had, you cannot really miss. I’m just laying on my be

Tate I message Liam really quick to let him know not to come over tonight. By the time I’ve been to Tammy’s and spent time with her and Lilly, it’ll be ten and I don’t fancy a late night. Classes are getting harder, our assignments are practically killing me and there’s no way I’m doing Liam’s assignment tonight in any case. Besides, it’s going to be the weekend so I can squeeze it in then. In between helping my mom bake cakes for the charity drive she is hosting on Sunday. We love doing all things like this together and especially when it comes to Thanksgiving and Christmas. We can spend hours literally in the kitchen baking, cooking and stuffing our faces. Okay, so mom doesn’t usually stuff her face, she’s always watched her figure and that’s why she could easily pass for a model’s body. Lilly honks her horn. “See you this evening, Mom. Dad.” I shout out and then head outside with just my mobile in my back pocket and my turquoise sequin purse. It’s my favorite. Liam bought it for

LiamI can see Tate has been trying to get hold of me, I ignore the messages. Yeah, I know it’s a crap way to be toward your bestie only I know her like I know myself. She’s only going to lecture me and I’m not interested in being lectured by Tate, my parents or no-one. I’m practically an adult, though sometimes you’d think I was a kid the way they like to treat me.Denver is walking out his door. We decided to use my truck then swap it to a car I’ve hired downtown. There’s no way, if I find this guy and give him what he deserves, I want anything being traced back to me.“Ready.” He says as his huge frame walks towards me. I’m leaning against the outside of my truck on the driver’s door. My legs are crossed in front of me as I smoke a cigarette. “Haven’t you given that shit up yet, man? What is wrong with you? Those things are gonna kill you one day.” He isn’t impressed.I merely shrug my shoulders. I know they’re bad for me, shit everyone knows how bad they are for your health and as

Tate Tammy looks pale, who wouldn’t after having so much alcohol in her system not to mention the drugs? Jesus, it’s bad. So bad. Yet her mood isn’t as down and low as both Lilly and I thought it would be. “I just feel shit guys.” She’s saying as she sits on her double bed with fluffy white pillows propping her up. Her legs are bent and she has her right leg crossed over her left leg. Her toned and tanned legs peek out from her denim cut off shorts. Her blonde hair and she has a lot of it, is sitting on top of her head in a messy bun. “Don’t you feel anything? Like anger, like you want to beat the living crap out of that guy?” I ask her as I sit next to her on the bed, Lilly is at the foot of the bed facing us. She’s resting against the brass and iron bed end looking more mournful than Tammy who has just gone through hell and back. “Not really. It’s happened what can I say. My folks are flying in, they’ll be back first thing tomorrow morning.” I’m sensing that she doesn’t give a sh

LiamIt wasn’t too difficult to extract the information from Ted. He’s such a douchebag, as if I’d be seriously looking to score gear. That man honestly it’s a miracle he is even getting into college this year. It wouldn’t surprise me if his parents were paying to get him in, for sure his grades can’t be up to scratch. He misses more classes than he attends. I’m not convinced he is some kind of genius.“Sure, man. I’ve got a few numbers for you.”“I want one in particular. We saw a guy with Tammy they shared some pills. That’s the guy I want to speak with.”“Everything okay?” Ted runs his hands through his messed up hair. He’s standing in just his pajama bottoms and a bare chest. He could do with some muscle, he looks way too thin. I could easily knock him out for having creeps at his damn party but I stay cool. Really cool.“I didn’t specifically see any guy with Tammy.” He scratches his head now. I want to punch him in the face, only I’m thinking he is being a jerk and covering his

Liam I call the number Ted gave me. Denver is now looking skeptical about the whole thing. I kind of knew he might want to skip out, I don’t blame him. Going after someone isn’t just the sort of thing anyone will do. Only I’m here now and I’m not prepared to let that douchebag get away scot free from what he has done to Tammy. “There’s still time to walk away.” I turn and say to him. We’re parked up in an unused parking lot that has a wire fence perimeter. There’s a burnt out car to the left and an old caravan that has lost all its wheels. This isn’t the best neighborhood to be in. Certainly not where we all hang out. I know that the lies of Tate, Denver and myself, Tammy and Lilly are privileged. We have extremely rich parents and money is never an object. Although my dad always makes me realise that it doesn’t grow on trees. Yes, I have an allowance on a monthly basis that even I know would be an annual allowance for most kids and yes, my father pays for a lot of my shit. But trus

Tate I’m lying on my bed, it’s nearly eleven outside. It’s pitch black except for the moon which is half this evening. It’s still absolutely stunning. The only thing that is spoiling it for me, is that Liam still hasn’t contacted me. Denver hasn’t contacted Lilly and we’re both besides ourselves. The way my stomach is lurching and the nausea I’m feeling, it tells me something bad has gone down. All I can do is wait and wait until Liam does send me a message. I reach for my book on the bedside cabinet, I’m an avid reader but tonight I open it up and just stare at the pages. So unlike me, especially when it’s the a Colleen Hoover like this one is. Really, I’m not even able to focus on the words, they’re swimming in front of my eyes. Perhaps I ought to swap to an audio book, that might soothe me whilst I wait. “Hey honey, you asleep yet?” I hear my mother say from the other side of the door. My fairy lights are still on and my bedside lamp, she can see the light no doubt filtering bel
