| Chapter 3 |
| Justin put a restraining hand on Lance's arm, "Lance stop." Lance spun around and glared at Justin, "No I won't stop. How dare you stick up for him after what he did." "He didn't so anything!" Justin almost screamed then took a deep breath and said more quietly, "He didn't do anything." 3 glares turned on Justin and Joey asked, "What happened then?" Justin was about to speak when he heard quietly behind him, "He was attacked." "Yeah we pretty much got that figured out MARSHALL!" Joey snarled. "Did you tell them?" Eminem asked. Justin shook his head, "No, I just told them he was in the hospital." Eminem sighed, "Ok. This is what happened, we had a fight," He glared at Lance, "For obvious reasons, he left and I got worried after a while because he never leaves for long so I went to look for him, I turned a corner and saw this guy leaning over Josh about to rape him!" Lance took a shuddering breath and ran off. Joey closed his eyes, "I better go and see if he's okay." Justin nodded, "Okay don't be long and bring him back here." Joey nodded and left looking for Lance. Chris closed his eyes, "Again. Why do they always go for him." "What?" Justin snapped staring hard at Chris. Chris's eyes snapped open realizing what he let slip, "Um, I, er, no, I, er, don't, um..." "This has happened before?" Eminem asked. Chris sighed, "Yes." "When?" Justin asked, wouldn't he know if his bestfriend was raped? "Germany." Chris whispered. "That fuck!" Justin screamed, "That bastard! I'll kill the fucker! I swear Chris I will kill him." "Who?" Eminem asked. Anger clouded over Chris's eyes, "Lou." Eminem's eyes narrowed at Chris, "Lou, Lou Pearlman your ex-manager?" Chris nodded, "Josh has almost been raped a couple of times before but me and Joey always seem to come and find him just in time. In Germany we were too late." Justin's eyes filled with tears, "You found him?" Chris shook his head, "No. Lance did." Justin closed his eyes choking on a sob, "God!" No wonder Lance was so protective of JC. "What happened?" Eminem asked wanting to kill Lou. Chris closed his eyes remembering, and began to tell them. _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_FLASHBACK_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Chris was in his hotel room when the phone rang, "Hello?" "Chris!" Lance cried into the phone, "Get your ass don't to Josh's room right now!" Chris frowned, "Lance, wait, what's wrong?" "Just get down here. Please." The tone in Lance's voice made Chris start to worry, "Ok I'll be down." Lance thanked him and he walked down to JC's room and opened the door. Nothing could prepare him for seeing JC. He was curled in Lance's arms sobbing and groaning in pain. Lance looked up as he heard the door open and was relieved it was Chris, he tenderly stroked JC's hair away from his face, "Josh, sweetie, I have to leave for a few minutes. I'll be right back I swear." JC looked at him tears streaming down his face and nodded, "Ok." Lance carefully moved from JC wincing as JC whimpered in pain, "Lay on your side sweetie." Lance caressed the side of JC's face and reluctantly left to talk to Chris. As soon as Lance shut the door Chris hissed, "What the fuck happened to him?" Lance's body was wracked by sobs, "He was raped Chris! That fat bastard raped him!" Chris had never felt rage like this before, "Fuck! I'm gonna kill him!" "You should of seen him Chris! I-I don't think I can ever forget that." Chris looked at Lance and curbed his anger he wrapped his arms around Lance, "You found him?" Lance nodded his body shuddering, "I knocked on his door because we were gonna hang out and I didn't here anything so I knocked again then I heard him whimper." Lance closed his eyes, "At first I thought he was having...y'know." Chris looked down and saw a blush on Lance's cheeks, "Yeah." "Then I heard him groan and I could tell it was one of pain not pleasure. I have a key to all your rooms so I used it and I saw him," Lance sobbed for a few minutes, "God Chris! He was lying on the floor his back to me there was blood down there and he had cuts and bruises on his back." "How do you know it was Lou?" Chris asked. Lance took a few calming breaths, "He told me." "How is he?" Chris asked. Lance stepped out of Chris's embrace drying his eyes, "He hasn't stopped crying since I found him, not that I blame him I can't even imagine what he's going through! And he's in a lot of pain but he won't go to the hospital so we'll have to bring somebody over here." Chris nodded, "Can I see him?" "Yeah." Lance said, he opened the door blinking back tears and climbed on the bed and layed down in front of JC stroking his hair, "Joshua, Chris wants to see you." "Chris?" JC whispered and Chris came and sat behind JC, "Yeah Josh I'm here. What happened?" "I had an idea for a s-song and I asked h-h-him if he would listen do it...he said he would and I said I could come over to the studio but he said he would c-come here...I thought it was strange but I said nothing...when he got here he started to t-touch me and I got s-scared...he began touching me d-down there and then," JC's whole body trembled as he began to sob harder, "He ripped off my clothes...I tried to run...but he caught me...and he forcefully...held me d-down...and he raped me...God there was so much pain...I didn't even know when he s-stopped...because it hurt so bad..." Lance bit his lip hard to try and contain his tears but it was no use they fell down his face anyway, he locked eyes with Chris. Chris saw the look in Lance's eyes and he nodded and carefully held Josh from behind. Lance pressed himself against JC and held him as he cried, "Ssh, ssh everything's going to be okay." -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-END FLASHBACK-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Chris finished telling them and Eminem punched the wall. Joey and Lance came back in and seeing this Lance asked, "You told him?" Chris nodded and the docter came in. "You are here for Mr Chasez?" "Yes, is he okay?" Lance asked. "He will be with a lot of rest. He has a few broken ribs and severe bruising all over his body." "How long does he need before he's better?" Justin asked. "His body needs time to recover so I would say 2-3 months." "Thank god were on a break." Joey said. "Can I see him?" Eminem asked. "Sure, go on in." Eminem thanked the docter and walked into JC's room, "Hey baby." JC looked at Eminem and smiled, "Hey Marshall." |
