Melissa went quiet at Louie's words, and Austin's follow-up didn't make matters any better.<br/><br/>She was still suffering from the toxin, though it seemed to be wearing off. Perhaps it was because she didn't get as strong a dose as the others.<br/>She still didn't know how to feel about her rape, or about what happened afterwards. She tried to shove her feelings away just to concentrate on the moment, but that was proving to be difficult.<br/>When he.. or his Gastly.. pushed her over and forced her legs apart, some part of her wanted it. Wanted it badly. She hadn't wanted it to be on a pebbly beach, but on a nice soft bed...<br/><br/>And now Austin was saying it was a mistake, an error, a dirty thing to do. Well, it was! That doesn't mean he gets to feel he shouldn't have done it, if he didn't do it! It was his Gastly, Louie said.<br/>Why would he say that if he didn't remember what his body did? Why is he feeling guilty for something he didn't do? Unless he really did do it, and he does remember. In which case, why is he taking back his actions?<br/>She couldnt' get back her virginity with an apology, so what's WRONG with him?!<br/><br/>Her body remembered the feel of him inside her, and wanted it still. Ugh! Why couldn't he have finished up with her when she asked?!<br/><br/>Melissa studiously didn't look at him, trying to hide her frustration with the guy. She said neutrally, "You don't have to come with us if you don't want to. You don't need to prove anything. Anyway, we should leave a trail."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
