April 14th 2011

Since my families death in December I have been going to a bar drinking after my shift at work. I drink until I feel drunk and stumble out of the bar.

Instead of catching a cab like I usually do I decided to walk through the park that takes me home.

There's a few lights on in the park as I walk through it, but it's more on the dark creepy side.

I didn't hear any voices until it was too late and I was on the ground with a guy pulling my handbag from me.

He punched me a few in the times in the face and forced my bag out of my hands. He threw the bag at one of his friends. "Take this." His hands moves the skirt I'm wearing up.

Oh, god. He's going to rape me.

I start struggling against him and whimper. "Please, don't do this."

He ignores me and I feel his hand travel up my thigh. "Who wants to do her best?" He asks how friends.

The guy holding my bag says. "I'd love to try her out."

"Great," before either guy could go any further someone yells. "Step away from the girl."

The guy on top of me spins around. "She's my bitch. Now, back off."

The night in shining armour steps forward. "I don't think so. I heard her crying for help up he street and I won't let you hurt an innocent woman."

The guy laughs. "She's not innocence. She's stupid for walking through the park in the middle of the night." He climbs off me and walk over to the shining armour. "Are you going to leave or do I have to teach you a lesson."

Shining Armour says. "I'm not leaving without the girl. You can hand her over or I can fight you for her."

The next thing I know I hear someone get punched and a fight breaks out.

Trying to sit up I see both guys hitting each other, but shining armour throws his fist back and punches the guy in the face again.

Shining armour approaches me and carefully places me in his arms. "I've got you." He tells me.

As we get closer to the street I take in his features. He has dark brown hair and blue eyes that remind me of the ocean. A few stubbles on his cheek and he has muscles.

I look into his eyes and say. "Thank you." Before my eyes close.
