Kylie closed her eyes, remembering and then started to recite. "Becky had invited me round her house for a sleepover yesterday - Yes Wednesday - mommy didn't really want me to go there as she didn't really trust Becky's brother, Sorry? Oh yes. Darren his name is. Becky had said her parents would be home, so there should be no problems. After I got to Becky's, we had tea, then her mother said that they were going out, but that Darren would be at home to look after us. . . ." - - - - - - - - After the door had closed behind Becky's parents, Darren waited for some minutes, 'Don't want them to find they've forgotten something and return to pick it up' was the thought going through his head, finally enough time had passed, time to get comfortable he decided. "Rebecca move your arse, get me a beer from the fridge." Becky shook her head, "Darren no! Not when Kylie's here, can't you leave it until tomorrow" Darren snorted. "Tomorrow! Fuck it! I'm thirsty now, anyway Kylie can have some too. You never know she might like it!" and he eyed Kylie hungrily, Becky tried to reason with him. "Darren, please, Mum and Dad could get back at anytime," this time Darren played his trump card. "Nope, they've gone to the pictures, I got them the tickets, wasn't that good of me! Now bugger off and get me the beer!" Becky reluctantly went. "Hey, whatsyourname, Kylie. Com'ere." Kylie shook her head. "No Darren, I'm happy enough here." Darren went to where Kylie was sitting and pulled her arm, he dragged her to the settee and made her sit down next to him, "There you are, and you can see the TV from here, its more comfy as well, we can get to know each other." Becky returned with the beer, which Darren took from her hands, then grabbed hold of her and pulled her onto his lap. "Darren, please no, not with Kylie here." He grabbed hold of her face, "Listen cunt, you never say no to me, and you'll do whatever I say, when I say it, now you and your friend is going to be comfy here, understand." She tried to nod her head, "Good, now sit next to your little friend and be quiet". Becky sat beside Kylie, tears showing in her eyes. Darren took a swig from the bottle, the cold beer slid down into his stomach, feeling good, he looked at Kylie, the dress she was in, the bare legs, white socks, then at Rebecca, dressed in jeans as normal - it was strange, she'd started wearing them in the last year, before that she wore dresses and skirts, he laughed to himself, that had made things so much easier for him. Yes Rebecca was a lot easier at first, and making sure she got blamed for thing, broken mirrors, cracked cups, 'the sodding stupid pricks didn't even question when I said she'd done it, just took my word. Well now its time to take some more fun'. "Hey, Rebecca, get me another beer. WELL MOVE IT you stupid little cow, I'm thirsty, and I'm gonna need more, bring in two bottles this time." The single beer had just started to warm him up. "Hey, Kylie, nice dress. It shows off your legs nicely, and you have pretty legs." Darren's hand started to move onto Kylie's knee, then started to rub it. "Please Darren, don't touch me there. Mummy says boys shouldn't touch girls on their legs." Darren left his hand on her leg, and gave it a squeeze. "Well, don't tell mummy then." Becky then returned with the two bottles, Darren took them, opened one, and offered it to Kylie, who shook her head, "Oh well, more for me then!" By the time Darren was onto his third beer, he had a good buzz going, Kylie found that his hand was wandering further than she wanted, and every time she said no, he didn't listen. "How fah up dosth your legs goesh, as fah as your nic-nics?" he raised her skirt to show her knickers, Kylie stood up looked at Becky and said, "I'm tired Becky, can we go to bed now." Becky looked at Kylie, then at Darren, who was trying to focus his eyes. She shook her head, Kylie emphatically nodded hers, then moved her hand to show the radio wrapped onto her wrist, Becky caught on. Both girls left the room and headed upstairs, 'good' thought Darren, 'let them get undressed then I'll have fun', and he continued to drink his beer. When the girls arrived at Becky's room Kylie shut the door, "Where's the key?" Becky shook her head, "Mum said I shouldn't lock my door, in case of accidents." Kylie looked at her, "I suppose that's what Darren suggested," Becky nodded her head, Kylie thought for a few minutes, she found out that her bedroom door could be locked by the key from the bathroom, so... Kylie ran to the bathroom, took the key from out of the door, and ran back to the bedroom, put the key in the lock, turned it, and the door locked! She then moved a chair so that the back was wedged under the door handle, then she and Becky huddled together. After half an hour they heard the door handle being turned, then the door being pushed against, a few moments later there was a knock at the door. "Come on girlsh, open up, I's just wan to tuck you in." The girls gave no response. "OPEN UP REBECCA, YOU COW, Jush you wait until I's gets in, I's teacha to lock me out!" Then he started to pound on the door, Kylie moved the radio to her mouth . . .. - - - - - - - - "...And I called Uncle Mike to help us," she hugged my arm "Which he did." She beamed up at me." DS Nichols drew in a deep breath, "It was lucky you had that radio with you." Kylie shook her head. "It wasn't luck, Uncle Mike told me never to leave it behind, look if I press this button," she showed both men the 'find me' button on the radio, "Uncle Mike can use his to find me, Becky's got one as well, we played hide and seek with them, they're marvellous" DS Nichols looked at me. "You gave one of these to Rebecca Smith? Why was that?" I remained calm, "Kylie and Becky came round to my house on Sunday, they were both bored, since I'd already given Kylie a radio, so I could keep in contact with her while her mother was at work, I lent Becky mine, and told the girls to play hide and seek, the range of these tracker units is 3 - 5 miles. I never got round to asking Becky for it back." The answer seemed to work, as Kylie was asked if there was anything else she had to say, she shook her head, and then said 'no' for the tape. "Interview terminated at 12:45." Was it that late! I checked my watch, yes it was. "Detective Sergeant, it is possible that we could have a break for lunch? I think both girls are hungry by now." Kylie nodded, the two men talked with each other, I overheard 'sod him, he's already given us the run-around, let him stew for a bit longer', then Nichols turned to me. "That should be perfectly okay sir, shall we say 2 o'clock?" I agreed with that, and we left the interview room, to find Becky sitting on a chair, holding something wrapped in toilet paper. I handed the jar to a WPC and asked her to hand it to the FME, as she needed it urgently, I took both girls by the hand, and we went to find something for dinner. When we were out of the station, and on our way to a restaurant, I spoke to Kylie, "You know you lied in that room!" She shook her head. "No, Uncle Mike, its wrong to lie you know that!" I did, but I had to ask. "So when you were asked if I tried to touch you on your privates?" She giggled, "But Uncle Mike, you didn't try - you did touch me! So I didn't lie to them, did I?" I had to shake my head, and then I thought. "But Kylie they meant to ask if I had touched you, they didn't put the question correctly." "It a pity they don't know how to ask the right questions isn't it Uncle Mike?" I gave up. - - - - - - - - We ate at a Burger King, the girls insisted. Becky asked. "What did you tell them, then Kylie, " I came in with "I don't think she should tell you that until after they've spoken to you first Becky." She nodded her head. "If you say so Mr. Mike, but I thought we should get the story straight." I shook my head, "No Becky, you just tell DS Nichols and DC Jones what happened, and in your words, remember you were in a different position, what you saw wouldn't match exactly with Kylies, but it would be close enough." "Okay Mr. Mike, but what did that woman want?" "The doctor, she was worried about you and needed to examine you again," Becky shook her head, "You don't trust her if you're alone with her?" Becky now nodded her head. "What if I was with you?" "Would you please, Mr. Mike, she wouldn't hurt me if you were there!" I looked at Becky, "You know she's going to be looking in some strange places, you may not want me to be there!" - she shook her head. "If you're not there then I'm not letting her!" I nodded, at least I'm getting her some medical attention, now if only the doctor will agree... - - - - - - - - We arrived back at the police station, the FME was standing with DS Nichols and DC Jones, "Mr. Moore, I've been requested to ask you if you would agree to giving me a urine sample". "Certainly, I assume that these gentlemen need the result urgently?" She nodded, "do you two need a witness that it is mine?" DC Jones started to look angrily at me. "Are you trying to take the...." "No but you seem to be." Both the FME and Nichols smiled at that, Nichols spoke up. "I'm sorry Mr. Moore, but according to the FME this will give us absolute proof, one way or another." I looked at the doctor, "I take it there was a result with Becky's sample," she nodded her head, "Yes, I really need to examine her, or let a hospital examine her, if its what I think then it's easy to treat, at least in the early stages." "Okay, I did get her to agree to seeing you again, but she wants me to be there," she looked up, "can you give me the sample jar?" She handed it to me, I left the girls and went into the men's room. Have you ever noticed that it's impossible to pee to order, I tried everything, running taps, imagining waterfalls, flushing the loos, finally I was able to leave after filling the jar. I wiped it over with toilet paper, found the label, signed it and dated it, took it outside and handed it to the doctor. Taking Becky by the hand we walked to the interview room. The interview took longer with Becky, the story was basically the same with minor differences, and then DS Nichols asked, "Rebecca, why didn't you tell anyone?" Becky replied with eyes blazing "'Cause Darren said no-one would listen, everyone knew I was a liar, Darren saw to that, he'd break things at home and I'd get the blame, he even got the school believing him, it was only because of Mr. Mike here that I agreed to invite Kylie over, Kylie convinced me that Mr. Mike would help." DC Jones asked me. "Why didn't you inform Social Services about this, they would have helped." I replied, "I gave my word to Becky that I wouldn't tell, I knew that at some stage Darren would go too far, and hoped I'd be able to help her then, but when Kylie radioed what was happening, I asked if Becky wanted extra help, which she did. At that point I contacted the police, and you know the rest." "Yes, but you could have told somebody!" "True, I could have lied to Becky, told people, that way Becky would lose all trust in me and others, I couldn't allow that to happen, could you?" "Well yes, the child comes first!" I gave a half smile, "Quite, and look what happen today, two children assaulted, and you still believe me to be a rapist!" DS Nichols shook his head, "No, Mr. Moore, from the way both Rebecca and Kylie have been with you, I no longer think that" I looked at DC Jones, who wouldn't meet my eyes. There was a knock on the door, it was the FME, again her presence was commented on the tape. "I have the results of Mr. Moore's sample here, they're negative." I said, "But, I've only known Becky since Saturday, surely there'd be no reaction in that time?" was I playing devils advocate here? "There would have been some signs, but if the DS here requires it I could examine you?" was that a smile on her lips? Yes a brief smile had appeared. DS Nichols said, "There's no need for that, although we may need you to examine a person we have for questioning later." Good luck Darren, I thought. "If you are through questioning Becky - can I call you Becky? Please?" Becky grudgingly nodded, "I need to examine her," DS Nichols agreed that all the statements were over and thanked us both. He did add, "Due to the nature of the assaults, we have to pass the details onto Social Services, so you may have to talk to them later." He started to appear apologetic, he almost started to seem human. - - - - - - - - We walked to the FME's office, entered and closed the door, she turned on a light to show that she didn't want to be disturbed, I sat down on a chair away from the desk, leaving the two together. "Becky, I can't apologise enough for what I had to do to you," she took a deep breath, "So I'm going to have to act as if you've forgiven me. Becky do you know what Chlamydial is?" Becky shook her head. "It's a type of disease that is passed through the sexual act, and it's starting to get prevalent in the country. I think you may have contracted it, tell me do you have a problem passing water?" Becky just looked at me, "Becky, the doctor wants to know if you have any pain when peeing?" this she understood. "Yes, it feels as if it's burning me." The doctor nodded, "That's one of the signs, Becky I'd need to check you, and will you trust me?" Becky shook her head, "I understand Becky, would it help if Mr. Moore held you hand?" Becky looked around, "She means me Becky, I'm Mr. Moore." Becky replied "No, you're Mr. Mike, I don't know a Mr. Moore." The doctor laughed, "Okay, how about if Mr. Mike, held you hand?" Becky gave a definite nod of her head, I moved forward and held her. The doctor looked around searching for something. "Oh I should have a gown somewhere, no, I used the last one, I'm sorry Becky, I can't examine you here, you're have to go to the hospital instead." Becky looked puzzled, "Why do you need a gown, you didn't use one the last time," the doctor looked embarrassed, "Well, Becky, the last time there were only women present, but now Mr. Moore is here, is wouldn't be right to undress you in front of him." The doctor looked up at me, "I'm sure you understand it wouldn't be right" I started to nod, but Becky looked first at the doctor then at me, then she started to remove her jeans, saying. "I trust Mr. Mike, he would never hurt me, no matter what I'd do." I said, "No Becky, the doctor's right, you've only known me a few days, you don't really know me, and so you should wait for a hospital to examine you." Becky was pulling her jeans down over her legs, "Look if I wait for the hospital then it might be too late, I'm here and ready so lets get on with it!" and at that her knickers were being pulled off, I looked away, but re-grabbed her hand, as the doctor put on the examining gloves and adjusted her mirror. "As you want Becky, now I've just got to pull these lips apart," Becky laughed at that, "Lips! How daft," I shook her hand, "The doctor is trying to calm you down, she's telling you what she's doing as she does it, okay?" she nodded her head. "Yes Mr. Mike." The doctor raised her head, "Becky, I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to go to the hospital, they have the proper equipment there, I need your legs raised and open, I don't have the right stuff here." Becky looked into my eyes, "Mr. Mike could hold them for you," the doctor was confused, "Well.. er.. its very irregular, I mean I don't think that..." Becky raised her legs, "Mr. Mike please hold my legs." I looked at the doctor who shrugged her shoulders, and then nodded, I held Becky's legs under the knee, then pulled them apart, watching the doctor until she signalled stop. "Oh, that feels odd, " said Becky, "but it doesn't hurt." The doctor started to spread Becky's labia apart, then picked up a swab, "Yes, there's something here, Becky have you noticed any problems down here before?" Becky shook her head then said, "No, but in the past few days it's been feeling strange." The doctor nodded, then picked up Becky's knickers and examined the crotch. "Uhmm. Yes, Becky I need you to take a series of tablets, only for 7 days," The doctor signalled me to release Becky's legs, which I did. "I'm afraid you will need to see me in two weeks time, or your own doctor - I'll have to make a report about this though." Becky burst into tears, the doctor held her and continued, "Becky don't worry, this is easy to clear up, and remember IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT, you were forced into this, you're not responsible for this being done to you!" and she continued to rock the child until the tears stopped. Once Becky was calm, she dressed and waited with me while the doctor wrote out a prescription, she started to explain, "Becky, this is for a drug called doxycycline, its designed to fight Chlamydial, there is another drug available, but I don't want to overload your system at your age." Becky looked at her, "But how can I get the tablets? My mum and dad wouldn't get them." I patted her shoulder, "Don't worry Becky, I can get them for you," I said to the doctor, "If you can make it out to me I'll have less trouble than Becky would." The doctor smiled and nodded, "You do know that the pharmacist is going to think it's your problem," I nodded and said, "As long as they don't tell others, I should be pretty safe." The doctor laughed and handed me the prescription. "Well your secret is safe with me - Now Becky here is my address and phone number, if you need to see me please phone first, as you can see I spend quite a lot of time here, but I will need to see you in 2 weeks time, to make sure everything is fine, and I will see you whenever you need." She went to the door and opened it, "And Becky I do mean anytime, if you need Mr. Moore to be with you then bring him." We thanked the doctor and joined Kylie who was still waiting, she jumped up and took my hand, as we walked out we heard. "REBECCA! What lies have you been telling them, 'ere mate you can't trust her word, everyone knows she lies..." Kylie turned round and said. "You're a bad man Darren, and they know it!" with that we left the station, with Darren's voice shouting in the background. - - - - - - - - We were walking back when Kylie and I heard, "Mike, am I using this right? Mike are you there?" It was Sharon, I move my wrist and spoke into the mike. "Hello Sharon, we've just left the police station, what's wrong?" "Nothing really Mike, I've just had Becky's father on the phone, they want to know if Becky could stay with me for a few days? It seems some people want Becky's door repaired before she can go back." At this Becky was looking at me, "Do you have the room for Becky as well as Kylie?" now Kylie was looking at me, "Not really, I was wondering . . .? Would you mind putting up with 3 women for a couple of nights?" Hold on, what did she say. . . "Sharon, I don't think I heard you correctly, can you repeat it?" there was a giggle over the airwaves, "You heard me correctly, can I come and stay with you for a couple of nights, I can't fit Becky here, there's not enough room for two girls, and you have plenty of room, if you scrunch up that is!" "Okay, you've convinced me, did I give you a spare key?" "No, so you'll have to let me know when you get home." "Alright, but I've got a few things to do in town first, so I may be longer than you think." "Thanks Mike, bye." Kylie looked at me, "What's there to do Uncle Mike?" "Well, first I have to get some keys cut, then I've got to go to a pharmacy, after that we can go home, okay?" she nodded then questioned "Why the chemist's? Are you sick." Becky stopped my answer by saying, "No, I'm sick - Mr. Mike is getting me some tablets." Kylie looked at her friend "You look okay, why're you sick?" "It's Darren's fault, he's given me something, and its making me hurt at times." I hugged Becky, then said to Kylie, "When I get the tablets, don't tell them who they're for. Let them think it's for me, okay." "But why's that Uncle Mike?" "Because if they think it for me there be no questions, if we tell them its for Becky, they'll start to ask awkward questions, something we want to avoid." We approached a local branch of Boots, walked through the perfumery, and onto the dispensary and handed in the prescription, we were told '10 minutes', so we went to find a locksmiths shop. I got three extra keys cut, and gave one each to Kylie and Becky, "Now if you need to get into my house and I'm not there, you can still get in." from their faces you'd thought I'd given them the keys to the crown jewels, we returned to Boots. The Pharmacist was waiting for me when we arrived, "Mr. Moore, we were able to fill this prescription, but you do realise that you have to complete the course, otherwise their actions will not be effective!" I nodded, "Good, you also know that you'll need another examination after two weeks." "Yes, the doctor did explain that," the pharmacist nodded his head, "Good, I would advise you to be more careful in future!" "I certainly will! Thank you", we left the shop, and the two girls laughed, Becky said. "Yes, you'd better be more careful in future Mr. Mike!" Kylie came out with - "Oh Uncle Mike, how could you?" We made another stop, again at another chemist, this time for sanitary towels, I thought Becky could use them. The trip home was uneventful, after I put the car away - yes Kylie was slowly getting use to travelling by car again - and went to my house. We spent a few minutes while both girls used their keys in my front door, almost wearing out the lock. We finally managed to get in, and I phoned Sharon. Ten minutes later Sharon turned up with two suitcases, one containing clothes for herself and Kylie, the other was for Becky from her parents, the girls took the cases upto 'their' room. After a few minutes Becky's laughter could be heard, we walked upstairs. "Look at this Mr. Mike, they know I don't wear dresses, so what do they send - three of them." I looked at the dresses, I couldn't see anything wrong with them. "Why don't you try them?" she gave me a scornful look. "I don't wear dresses, it makes it easy for Darren to. . . ." I was beside her in an instant. "But Darren isn't here, he can't hurt you here. Can he." She shook her head then looked at me, "You won't let Darren hurt me will you Mr. Mike?" I looked into her eyes "Becky, if Darren even tries I'll kill him!" and inside I knew that it was true. - 30 -------------------------------------------------------------- The normal disclaimers apply to this story - it is fiction, and all characters are fictitious.
