“He did not!”
“All truths must be verified, Paigelynn.” He points to his desk, the wide expanse of glass open and clear. “You need to lie on that.”
“What?”
“I’ll perform the examination myself.”
“What – where is this hymen?”
“I’ll show you.”
Loud ringing in my ears, so hard I can feel my blood bang against my vessel walls, makes it hard to think. I’m shrinking, turning inward, growing smaller and smaller because I just want to disappear. Make the world go away.
Make it all stop.
Bang bang bang
I scream, unable to help it, as Makiah’s hand jerks and smacks against my bottom, the tap light but his fingertip digs in between my legs, making me arch away from it.
A click at the door, then it opens, and in walks Cam.
CAM.
“What the fuck do you think you’re doing to her?” he hisses as he slams the door behind him, takes three long steps across the room, and barrels down on Makiah.
The shock of Cam’s fist against Makiah’s jaw is explosive, his arm a jackhammer, Makiah a beam of steel. It’s all fits and starts, images and stills, a series of moments in time frozen in my mind. Not a reel of film that plays out fluidly, instead I see their fight as a sequence of photos.
Cam’s fist against Makiah’s lip.
Blood spurting from his mouth.
Makiah tucking his head under Cam’s armpit.
The bruise of a blow from Makiah against Cam’s kidney.
I shriek and roll away from them, shoving my arms into my shirt, searching the floor for my pants. I find them, splattered with exactly five dots of Makiah’s blood, all of them clustered at the back of the waistband.
“You fucking dog,” Cam bellows as Makiah looks around him, eyes fixating on a spot to the right of his desk. I have one leg in my pants, foot wiggling to find the hole and pull the pant leg up, but I hop over to where he’s looking.
A red button, small and inconspicuous, is under the desk’s lip.
He sees me find it and dives toward me, belly sliding on the glass of the desktop, until he jerks back suddenly.
Because Cam has him by the feet.
“What did you think you were going to do, Makiah? Fuck her? Slip her some of your hot God juice? Take her innocence and enjoy it? Hope a quick cum was worth it because you didn’t get get off. You put a target on your head with three ruthless families coming after you until you’re nothing but a twitching pile of foreskin and corneas? Because that’s what you’re doing here, you stupid idiot.”
Makiah tries to twist on his back, but I grab a fistful of his hair, yanking hard.
“Paigelynn, did he hurt you?”
“No.”
“Lay a finger on you?”
I hesitate just long enough for Cam to explode as he slides his hand under mine and grabs the back of Makiah’s head and slams his face into the glass top.
A vicious scream, suddenly wet and weird, comes from Makiah as he fumbles for the red button I’m protecting. I slap his hand and he kicks Cam, hard enough to get a little freedom. Makiah rolls to the side, his head hitting my hip, blood from his nose smearing down my leg as Cam races around the desk to insert himself between me and Makiah.
