He was wearing a tight white shirt that showed his rippling muscles and black trousers. He was laughing with Danny, Matt and a few others, Carter was also there but he wasn't laughing along with them. Rhydian had perfectly straight teeth and his hair looked so soft that I just wanted to run my fingers through it. I looked at Tara and we squealed like idiots. "As i'm the birthday girl let's go and say hello". So we slowly made our way downstairs, me now trying to control my breath more than ever. We walked over and joined the boys; Rhydian looked at us and a smile grew on his face that defined the dimples in his cheeks. "Happy Birthday Tara" he shouted making the room erupt in whooping, cheering and applause. Tara was so happy and so was I. Rhydian looked over at me and winked making my body erupt in a tingling sensation. The room began singing Happy Birthday and everyone was so happy, then I felt an arm crawl across my shoulder and as I looked it was Rhydian's. He had a cheeky grin on his face and I felt myself blush. I looked up at Tara and saw Carter staring at me, I stared at him back and his eyes lowered to the floor and he walked off without a word.

The party was in full swing even though it was late and people were dancing like there was no tomorrow. I walked into the kitchen to find Tara and as I did I bumped into a tall boy spilling his drink all over me. He was completely drunk as all he could do was slur the words sorry before walking off. I saw Danny and Carter in the Kitchen and walked over to the counter. There was tissues behind them so I grabbed a few and began rubbing the drink out of my dress. I walked up to Danny and asked, "Danny have you seen Tara?" he looked at me and shook his head. Carter looked at me but before he could say anything I left. The drink wasn't coming off properly so I went to use the bathroom. I avoided the horny teens making out on the stairs and made my way to the bathroom in Tara's parents room because I was almost sure no-one had gone in there. I entered, closing the door behind me and went into the bathroom, as I ran the tap I heard the bedroom door open and close. I suspected some kids had strolled in expecting to do all kinds of things that I did not want to be there for when that happened. While still rubbing my dress I walked out to come face to face with Rhydian.

"R-rhydian", I squealed shocked. He smirked at me and pulled me towards him. I looked down feeling myself blush uncontrollably. He ran his fingers along my bare arm and rested them under my face raising my head so our eyes met. He brought his face close next to mine and whispered, "You look beautiful". My body felt hot and he brought his face right in front of mine, he then brought his lips down on mine. First it was slow and gentle then they got more passionate and harder. I felt him wrap his arms around my waist and pull me even closer to him. He spun me and began walking backwards, I followed his lead and in the moment and we fell on the bed. Our lips separated and he brought his head into my ear and whispered, "I've wanted this for so long Amy" and in that moment all my feelings switched off.

I pushed him away from me and for a few moments he stared at me confused before I said, "go away, you're drunk and don't even know my name". I scoffed at him and I tried to get off the bed but he pulled me backwards. "Don't leave" he begged but he wasn't fooling me. I shook my head and tried to get his arm off me but he wouldn't let go no matter how much I struggled. He pulled me backwards and got on top of me. I pushed him and squirmed but he wouldn't get off, "Help!" I shouted but the music was too loud for anyone to hear me. He put my hands above my head and held them there as he began to trace his arm along my leg. I felt tears coming to my eyes and I felt my body beginning to freeze up. "No!" I shouted hoping he'd have a change of heart but he carried on. He began kissing my neck and then the door burst open. I couldn't see who it was at first but then Rhydian was ripped from on top of me and thrown onto the floor. I looked up to see Carter. He looked at me and his eyes grew black as he swung around for Rhydian and punched him in the face knocking him out.

I was frozen on the bed with my dress up to my stomach. Carter looked at me and ran to my side, "Annabelle?" he called out to me but I couldn't respond. He turned and walked to the wardrobe and pulled out a long coat. He wrapped it around me and proceeded to pick me up off the bed. We left the room leaving Rhydian unconscious and alone. We walked down the stairs and left without saying goodbye. He carried me all the way to his car and placed me in the back. He then got in the front and put the key in the ignition and drove. I didn't know where we were going and I couldn't make sense of what happened, nor did I want to but in that moment I felt safe with Carter and I honestly felt like there was no place I'd rather be.
