“I want you.” She stroked her hand over his hair. “That’s all I know for sure.”
“Then the rest we’ll work out.” He lifted up and pressed his lips to her neck. “We’ll deal with the details later. Is that good enough?”
“Hell yes. Now…” She shifted around and pushed him onto his back. “I think we’ve got five years of time to make up for. And we don’t really have to check out just yet…right?”
He was grinning as she bent down and covered his mouth with hers. “Absolutely.”
Author’s Note
According to RAINN (Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network), there is a sexual assault every two minutes in the U.S. Almost half of the victims are under eighteen. Eighty percent are under the age of thirty. Fifty percent of sexual assaults are not reported to the police and ninety-seven percent of rapists will never spend a day in jail.
Two-thirds of assaults are committed by somebody the victim knows. Almost forty percent of the assaults are committed by friends or acquaintances.
Drug-facilitated sexual assault remains common. Drugs like GBL can be slipped into a strong-tasting drink and the victim may act normally, i.e., they might not look drunk or act out of it, but they won’t remember anything that happened while the drug was in their system. It’s metabolized fast and will leave body within twenty-four hours.
Rape doesn’t happen to “other” people. It happens to people in all walks of life.
