unwilling to wait for a room. No doubt Starling was in one of these 
rooms giving it to some poor girl. Word had, it he liked them young. 
Which explained how Mindy had been invited? If Starling had laid a hand 
on her he would kill him he thought! Opening yet another door he noted 
it was a closet. He started to close the door, but heard a soft 
whimper. Opening the door fully he found Mindy curled up on the floor 
in the back of the closet. “Mindy.” Colby asked giving her a shake. 
Mindy stirred awake to the feel of someone shaking her. Her vision was 
all messed up and she couldn't seem to make herself move. 

“Colby” she mumbled. “Come on Mindy; let's get you out of here. He
started to reach out to lift her into his arms. “I can't move” she 
mumbled. “I know.” He stated. He was familiar with the effects of rape 
drugs on the body as a medical student. “Hey what the hell are you 
doing, she's mine! I've been looking all over for her.” A guy in his 
early twenties stated from behind Colby. Causing Colby to stiffen in 
anger. Getting to his feet he turned to face the guy in question. “You 
responsible for the condition she's in!” Colby asked grabbing the guy 
and slamming him back against the wall. Suddenly the hall was quiet as 
everyone stared. “What condition? What the hell's wrong with you?” The 
guy asked sweat breaking out on his brow. “It's not my fault; she must 
have drunk too much. Hey you're welcome to have at her, she won't 
mind.” The guy replied, too stoned to comprehend the danger he was in. 
It was a dumb move as Colby knocked him cold with one powerful punch. 
Turning Colby reached down to get Mindy, who still couldn't move. 
Turning to start back down the hall, people moved readily out of his 
way. He clearly wasn't someone to mess with. Carrying her from the 
house, he places her in the back seat of his Ford explorer. Pulling his 
cell phone out he punched in a number and listened as it rang. “Hello.” 
A groggy voice answered. “Doug, I need your help. You need to meet me 
at my house.” Colby said walking around to the driver's side door and 
opening the door. 

“Colby? It's three a clock in the morning.”	Replied Doug. “I know it's
an emergency.” Colby replied pulling away from the curb. “It better 
be!” Was Doug's very terse reply. 

Arriving home Colby lifted Mindy from the car. “What's wrong with me?”
Mindy mumbled aware of being carried. “You were drugged.” Colby 
replied, opening the door to go inside. He carried her into the house. 
Colby's house was a one level rancher.  There was a large kitchen and 
living area. A master bedroom and two spare bedrooms. The house 
included a fully finished basement that housed his office and another 
non-regressed bedroom. The carpet throughout the house was a light 
shade of beige. The living room contained two large, cream colored, 
Italian leather sofas.  And a large overstuffed chair with matching 
footstool, done in the same cream colored leather. The coffee table and 
end tables were made of wood. Two brass lamps added a touch of elegance 
to the room. A big screen TV dominated one wall, surrounded by a huge 
entertainment unit. The wall over the fireplace held a modern painting 
that was a mass of wild colors. It wasn't his taste; his mother had 
decorated the entire house. His surroundings weren't that important to 
him. But he knew that Mindy didn't much care for the decor in his 
house. The master bedroom was large and dominated with a king size four 
postured bed. There were also several large dressers and a huge 
Armoire. All were done with rich cherry wood finishes. The bedspread 
and sheets were a deep wine color. Something else Mindy didn't like, 
though she never said anything. The master 

bath done in cream and sand tones was a different story. Mindy loved the
huge bathroom.  Which included duel sinks? A glass enclosed shower. 
Several large cupboards, and drawers, took up most of one wall. Large 
glass mirrors over the sink. And a large jetted tub, which he had 
allowed Mindy to use whenever she wanted. He had rarely used the tub, 
preferring showers. Along side the bathroom was a large walk in closet. 


Carrying Mindy down the hall, he entered the spare bedroom he'd given
Mindy to use. It was like stepping into another world all together. 
Where every other room was done in modern decor, this room which he had 
allowed Mindy to decorate was done in southwestern decor.  The four 
postured queen size bed, was adorned with a southwestern quilt. 
Southwestern pottery of various shades adorned several dressers. There 
were prints of Indians and other southwestern art adorning the walls. 
It was all very tastefully done and brightened the room beautifully. 
Setting Mindy down on the bed, he removed her shoes, before sitting 
down on the edge of the bed. He brushed her hair away from her face. 
Her eyes were closed. She was a pretty girl, with blonde hair falling 
just below her shoulders. Her hair was thick and unruly. Her eyes were 
hazel in color, her nose small. Her lips were full, and her skin was 
beautiful. Not to light, and not too dark. She would never be 
considered beautiful in the classical sense. Her body was slender, with 
large breasts. Her favorite asset he knew. Her hips were too wide to 
suit her. She would never be able to drop below a size eight as a 
result. Her legs were slender. She was small in stature, standing at 
5”2. She was perfect he thought, in every way. He had loved her from 
the moment they met. But she was only sixteen and he was twenty-one. So 
for now he was just her friend and confidante. 

He knew she didn't suspect his feelings for her. She thought he saw her
as a friend and for now that was for the best. He had a girlfriend 
after all. He'd dated her for several years now. Though he had no real 
interest in her, she was a convenient sex partner when he was in the 
mood. Which wasn't very often? He was studying to be a medical 
examiner. And his studies consumed most of his time. Not that school 
was hard for him. He was brilliant; he had graduated from High School 
at sixteen, received bachelors at nineteen. He would be graduating with 
duel masters in criminal psychology and forensic medicine, come June. 
Than it would be on to med school. He worked as an orderly for the 
county coroner's office. Coming from a family of Lawyers his parents 
had not been happy with his choice of studies. Being a Doctor like his 
older brother would have been okay. But a medical examiner, they 
couldn't figure out what was wrong with him to want to pursue such a 
dark career. Mindy on the other hand thought forensics was fascinating. 
Part of his attraction to her was her clear interest in his studies. 
They talked constantly about what he was learning. His girlfriend Teri 
couldn't stand to even think about touching a dead body, leave alone 
cutting one open. But Colby was fascinated by death and discovering the 
cause.  Though she was interested in forensics, Mindy wasn't headed for 
medical school. Her passion was writing. Mindy was a small town farm 
girl. At twelve she had written a story about a little girl and a 
magical white tiger, which was entitled Meri and Jaba. A neighbor had 
read her story and helped her send it to various publishers. Her Story 
had been published, and than Disney had made her story into a movie. 
She had written the screenplays for several movies based on Meri and 
Jaba, which Disney also bought. At sixteen she had already sold five 
screenplays to Disney to be made into movies. But she wanted more Colby 
knew. She wanted to 

move away from kid stories and into writing for mature audiences. Colby
had no doubt she would be a famous writer someday. That was why she was 
in California.  Tom Conner was supposed to be chaperoning her. But Tom 
was a big movie star, and most likely out of town on a shoot. Something 
Tom had neglected to tell her parents. If her mother, even knew her 
daughter's location. Her folks were divorced. And her Dad had gotten 
custody of his daughter. Mindy had been unwilling to leave the farm or 
her Dad. Her Dad was easy going and trusting. He farmed the family farm 
and so couldn't accompany his daughter on the many trips she made to 
California to deal with her agent. Mindy had met Tom Conner's on the 
Tonight show when she was twelve. He had been there to promote his 
latest movie. Mindy was there to talk about writing the Disney movie 
Meri and Jaba. She had walked up to Tom and given him her business 
card, telling him that she might have a part for him someday. Tom had 
started to laugh but had been stopped by how serious she seemed to be. 
He had felt an instant liking for her. Her Grandma had accompanied 
Mindy. Tom had taken them to dinner, and become good friends with 
Mindy. Who now had the use of his guesthouse whenever she was in LA?  
He had met Mindy at a party an older friend had drug her too. She 
tended to run with an older crowd being mature for her age. His 
girlfriend was hosting a dinner party at her apartment. He had been 
bored out of his mind, and was sitting in a chair, thinking about 
leaving. When Mindy had dropped into the sofa a crossed from him. 

“Hi.” She had said with a smile. “Your Colby, Jeff's brother.” She
stated. “I'm Mindy; your brother is dating my friend Amber.” 

“You write movies for Disney.” Colby remembered. “My brother has
mentioned you. You here with Amber?” “I was, she ditched me, she's off 
somewhere with your brother. I don't really know anyone else here.” 
Mindy commented looking around. “I don't know any of these people very 
well.” Colby commented. “Teri's friends mostly.” “Your Teri's 
boyfriend?” Mindy asked. “Yes, you seem surprised?” He asked. “I guess 
I don't see you two together.” “Why?” Colby asked. “Your brother says 
you're studying to be a coroner?” Mindy had dodged the question with 
one of her own. “Medical Examiner. So?” He replied. He was used to 
people being put off by that. “That's why I don't see you guys as a 
couple; Teri can't stand that kind of thing.” Mindy answered staring at 
Teri who was holding court with friends across the room. She had the 
best looking guy in the room and she'd left him alone. Turning her 
attention back to Colby she studied him for a moment. He was gorgeous 
in a dark sort of way. “I've wanted to meet you since Amber told me 
about you.” Mindy said. “Why me?” He asked intrigued. She wasn't at all 
shy. “I'm a writer, and I'm interested in doing a movie involving a 
murder. I could use the input of a medical examiner. I don't know too 
much about autopsies.” 

“Most people find them gross.” He commented studying her. “Not me, I
think it's fascinating.” Mindy stated. “Why do you say that?” Colby 
asked surprised by her enthusiasm. “Because it involves solving the 
mystery of how someone died. And in many cases, helps to convict the 
killer. That's a very important job. I have a side interest in 
Criminology.” She was full of surprises, he thought. Her friend Amber 
had interrupted them than. She had gotten into a fight with his brother 
and was ready to leave. 

“Colby, can you give us a ride? Your brother's being a jerk!” She had
asked. Colby was glad to have an excuse to leave the party. So he had 
driven Amber to her apartment. And than he had dropped Mindy off at 
Tom's guest house. He ended up spending several hours talking to her 
about school and his ambitions. As he was leaving she had given him her 
card, and said to stay in touch. He had, and she had become his closest 
friend and confidant. When she was in town she stayed at his house a 
lot. To the extent that she had her very own room. He trusted her 
completely and she had full access to his life. He was a very private 
person, trusting few people. His house was proof of this. There was a 
lock on his office and bedroom doors. No one, including family was 
allowed access to these areas. No one except Mindy, she not only had 
keys to his house. But she also had a key to his office and bedroom. 
His parents had keys to get into his house, but that was it. Even his 
girlfriend Teri didn't have a key to his house. Something that really 
irked her!  Teri didn't stay at his place at all. When he was in the 
mood he went to her 

place. He didn't want her at his place or in his bed. She came over
during the day to hangout sometimes, but he always saw her back to her 
apartment. The sex was good so Colby maintained his connection with 
her. And for some reason Teri put up with his crap. And she had never 
seen Mindy as a threat to her. She was just some stupid kid that had 
latched onto him. Although she did resent the time and attention, Colby 
gave to Mindy. Colby knew that Teri assumed he would marry her when he 
got done with school. Even though Colby had never mentioned marriage to 
Teri! He would marry Mindy; he'd known that from the start. He was 
aware of exactly when his brother pulled into the drive. Going to 
answer the door, he opened the door just as his brother was reaching 
for the bell. “Dammit Colby! I hate it when you do that. It creeps me 
out!” Doug complained as he entered the house. “What the hell is the 
emergency? You look fine to me!” He was clearly pissed off. “It's not 
me, its Mindy.” Colby answered closing the door before leading his 
brother down the hall to the guestroom. “What's wrong with her?” Doug 
replied his tone on the grumpy side. “Somebody slipped drugs to her in 
a soda. Some type of rape drug.” Colby replied. “What?” His brother 
asked startled as he studied Mindy lying on the bed. “Why the hell 
didn't you take her to the ER?” Doug demanded. “She's sixteen they 
would have called her Dad.” Colby answered. “So?” Doug replied glaring 
at his brother. 

“She'd get in trouble, and so would Tom. Now will you take a look at
her?” Colby asked calmly. “She's underage; I can't treat her without 
parental consent.” Doug replied turning to leave. “Dammit Doug she 
needs help! Stop screwing around!” Colby demanded grabbing his 
brother's arm. “I'm not; I could lose my license if I treat her!” Doug 
replied stubbornly. “You're not going to lose your license, she won't 
tell anyone.” Colby replied. “Now treat her or I'll kick your sorry 
ass.” Colby threatened. “Dammit.” Doug replied turning around. “You're 
getting a bill for this.” He stated before bending over to examine 
Mindy. “Go get my kit from the car.” He grasped Mindy's wrist to take 
her pulse. Colby headed out to the car to get his brother's kit. When 
he returned his brother was studying Mindy with concern. “It would help 
if we knew which drug she ingested.” Doug commented. “Were you at the 
party?” Doug asked. “Only to pick her up, she called me from the party. 
Said she felt funny. She was pretty messed up on the phone.” Colby 
replied remembering the, I love you, I want you part. “Her pulse is 
steady and her breathing is good. Will probably just have to wait for 
the drugs to wear off. There's not much I can do, but watch her for 
signs of trouble.” Doug stated. “I've got to be at school at seven.” 
Colby stated glancing at his watch. It was nearly four. He wouldn't be 
getting much sleep tonight. 

“I have to be at the clinic by eight.” Came Doug's reply. “Just watch
her for a couple hours. If she doesn't get worse she should be all 
right.” Doug commented standing. “I'll go bunk in the other guestroom. 
I'll check her before I leave at seven. If she's no worse she should be 
able to stay alone.” “Thanks Doug.” Colby replied rubbing his neck. He 
was tired. But someone needed to stay with her, and clearly he had been 
elected. Returning to the bed, Colby lifted Mindy to move her under the 
covers. Mindy stirred to his touch. “Colby?” “Go back to sleep, you'll 
be all right.” Colby answered pulling the covers up to her chin. He 
eyed the other side of the bed. It wouldn't hurt if he stretched out 
beside her on the bed. If she needed him he would be right there. And 
he needed to rest. Crawling in beside her Colby settled back into the 
pillows. He was just closing his eyes when Mindy shifted her position 
to lie against him, with her arm flung a crossed his chest. Maybe this 
hadn't been such a good idea. Colby shifted moving his arm around her. 
Mindy cuddled closer to him as if chilled. And than she moved her leg 
across his; so that it settled between his. Crap! He could feel his 
groin tighten with desire. This wasn't going to work. Clearly she was 
able to move now. He could go back to his own bed. He started to shift 
her body away from him. But Mindy resisted tightening her hold on him 
and shifting further onto him. Now he was fully aroused. “Mindy, you 
need to move.” Colby commented through gritted teeth. “No, stay with 
me.” Mindy mumbled nestling against his chest. Christ, he thought! She 
had him pretty well penned at this point. But every time he tried to 
move her, she tightened her hold. “I'm cold.” She mumbled when he tried 
to loosen her hold on him. She was cold, so that was it. And he felt 
like he was on fire. Absently he rubbed her back. He would stay until 
she warmed up enough to go back to sleep. Than he'd get the hell out of 
this bed! The warmth of her 

body soon had him drifting to sleep. He was only half-awake when his
hands started drifting over the warm female body nestled next to him. 
His hands slipped under her shirt too cup a full breast, his thumb 
rubbing across the tip. She moaned softly, rolling onto her back. 
Colby's eyes were still closed as he ran his hand up her inner thigh 
under the skirt she wore. Pushing the skirt up, he slipped his fingers 
into her silk panties. Rubbing a finger across her vaginal opening she 
gasped. She was warm and wet and he easily slipped his fingers inside 
her. He was hard and ready, though still drifting just above sleep. His 
sleepy mind wondered at the warm body lying next to him. The body was 
unfamiliar to him but very welcome. As his fingers continued to move 
inside of her, he found a hardened peak through her top. To his delight 
he could feel her pull her top up. And seconds later his mouth closed 
over a hardened peak. He felt her body stiffen and she cried out at the 
force of her orgasm. Still groggy Colby opened his eyes in the 
darkness. Pulling her underwear down and off, he reached down to undo 
his jeans; he wondered dimly why he was still dressed. Pushing his 
jeans and jockey shorts down, he moved between her legs, and started to 
enter her. “Oh Colby!” She moaned. The voice was like a bucket of ice 
water dumped over him. Mindy! Dammit he was on top of Mindy! God, what 
was he doing! He moved off her. He was still fully clothed, but his 
pants were undone and down. He quickly pulled them up and buttoned his 
pants, which was a struggle as he was fully aroused. What the hell had 
happened? Reaching over he turned the bedside lamp on. Mindy's shirt 
was up her breasts exposed. As well as her skirt, she was naked from 
the waist down. Guilt washed over him as he remembered clearly what he 
had done to her. She was drugged, and he'd taken 

advantage of her. He'd been so tired and not fully awake, he argued to
himself. But that was no excuse. Mindy moaned turning away from the 
light. Glancing at his watch Colby saw that it was time to get up; he 
barely had time for a shower. Moving out of the bed, he stood on shaky 
legs. “Colby, what's wrong?” Mindy asked still out of it.  Glancing 
down to see her breasts, she pushed her top down. It didn't register in 
her mind that he was looking at her naked breasts. She was still out of 
it, and sank back in the bed, and pulled the covers up. She felt lousy. 
He sighed turning to leave. He had really screwed up. The question was 
how much would she remember. She might not remember any of it. He hoped 
so, because how would he explain this. Heading into his room he 
stripped off his clothes. It was his fault he never should have gotten 
into bed with her. Stepping under the spray of water, he cooled his 
body off. Damn! She had felt and tasted so good. He was going to be 
tortured by what happened for a while. He had almost taken her 
virginity. Even now his body screamed for release. He quickly soaped 
up. He needed to see Teri; she would give him a much-needed release. 
That was probably the problem. He hadn't had sex in a while and clearly 
his needs were building up. He usually didn't see Teri when Mindy was 
in town, preferring to spend what little spare time he had with her. 
Toweling off Colby quickly dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a red 
T-shirt. Pulling a pair of sneakers on,  he put his watch on and 
glanced at the time. He would have just enough time to check on her 
before he needed to head to class. Heading toward Mindy's room he found 
his brother examining her. She was awake with a thermometer in her 
mouth. Taking the thermometer from her mouth, he studied it with a 
frown. “Well?” Mindy asked. 

“Normal, that's weird. As flushed as your face was when I came in here,
I was sure you were running a temp.” Doug commented. He missed the look 
of guilt on his brother's face. “Well I'd say you're going to be fine. 
Just get some rest and stay away from parties. You're damn lucky! With 
those drugs in your system, you would have been unable to fend off an 
attack. Anyone could have taken advantage of you, and you wouldn't have 
known it.” Doug lectured completely unaware of the guilt washing over 
his brother. She nodded contritely. “Morning, thanks for coming to get 
me.” She said. She had been aware of him as soon as he came into the 
room. She'd always been able to sense when he was anywhere around. 
Which was weird? “How do you feel?” Colby asked feeling sick over what 
he had done. “I'm fine, thanks to you.” Mindy replied softly. “What the 
hell's wrong with you? Are you sick?” Doug asked noting how white 
Colby's face was. He looked like he was going to be sick. “Nothing, I'm 
fine.” Colby replied defensively. “You look like shit!” Came Doug's 
reply. Rising from the bed he studied Colby intently. “You were fine 
last night.” “I didn't get much sleep, that's all.” He muttered. “I'm 
sorry, I woke you up.” She felt terrible, knowing he needed his rest; 
he got so little of it due to his busy schedule. 

“I'm okay; I've got to get to class.” Colby told them turning to leave.
“Get some rest.” He called over his shoulder. He needed to get the hell 
out of there. He'd molested a drugged up girl. He felt like complete 
shit. “I don't know what his problem is?” Doug questioned. “I'm going 
to take a shower and change. Get some sleep. You can reach me at the 
clinic if you start getting worse.” 

Mindy nodded, watching him leave. She sank back in the pillows. Clearly
Colby was upset with her. She never should have gone to that stupid 
party. She didn't even like Jerry Starling. But there had been the 
chance of making some more contacts at the party. And she had seen and 
talked to several people involved in the movie industry. But no one of 
real importance not that she remembered much. She had been lucky to get 
out of that party in one piece. Closing her eyes it suddenly dawned on 
her that she wasn't wearing any underpants. And her bra was undone. Oh 
god! What had happened to her at that party? She knew she had 
underpants on, she never went without them. So what had happened to 
them? Why would she have taken them off? She tried to remember taking 
them off but couldn't. Someone must have taken them off her. Had she 
been raped, or just molested? Not that either case appealed to her. She 
felt sick to her stomach. She couldn't remember a thing; it was all 
just one big hazy mess. Colby had been too late. Whoever had given her 
the drugs had gotten to her first? Tears of anguish filled her eye. 
Turning over she wept into a pillow. Should she call the police? No, 
what could she tell them. She had been drugged, she couldn't remember 
anything. She needed to have a rape exam done. She was familiar with 
the procedure, Colby had talked about it. She wouldn't be able to 
shower 

until after the exam. She would have to call Colby. No, she thought he's
at school. She would have to call a cab to take her too the hospital. 
She didn't want to do it alone, she was scared. She would go to Doug, 
he could help her. God! What would she tell her parents! Getting out of 
bed, she went to see if she could catch Doug. She found him in the 
kitchen, drinking coffee. Seeing her tearstained face, he frowned. 
“What's wrong?” He asked in concern. “I need you to run a rape kit on 
me.” She tried to keep her voice steady, but she was shaking. “What? 
Why?” Doug asked shocked. Colby said he'd gotten there in time. “I 
think I was raped.” She replied shakily. “Christ!” Doug muttered, what 
the hell was he suppose to do? “Why do you think you were raped?” “I'm 
not wearing any underpants and my bras undone.” Mindy answered 
miserably. “Are you a virgin?” Doug questioned switching into the role 
of doctor. “I was.” Mindy mumbled sadly, so much for waiting for the 
right guy. “Any blood on the inside of your thighs? Doug questioned. “I 
haven't looked.” She admitted. “Dose your vagina hurt.” He asked. “No.” 
Mindy answered blushing. This was really embarrassing. “Go check for 
any signs of blood. If you were raped there would be blood present 
given your virginal status.” Doug told her. He watched Mindy head off 
to the bathroom. Dammit! Colby should have taken her to the hospital! 
She couldn't have been raped, Colby would have known. He would have 
recognized the signs he was in forensics. And she had said she didn't 
have any pain. She'd be sore as hell if she had been raped. He needed 
to talk to Colby; this was getting way out of hand. Glancing at his 
watch, he saw that it wasn't quite seven yet. Maybe he could catch 
Colby before class started. Grabbing the phone off the kitchen counter 
he dialed his brother. Pick up dammit he thought. 

“Hello.” Colby answered his phone having just arrived at his class.
“What's wrong?” “Mindy just asked me to run a rape kit on her. She 
thinks she was raped.” Doug told his brother, while pacing back and 
forth a crossed the kitchen. “What?” Colby asked feeling even sicker. 
“She says that her panties are missing, and her bra was undone. Now I 
don't think she was raped. She doesn't have any vaginal soreness. I 
sent her to look for signs of blood. But clearly she was molested by 
whoever gave her that drug. This is a police matter; she needs to be 
taken too the hospital. They might be able to find trace evidence.” 
Doug stated, coming to a halt as he spotted Mindy returning. “Hold on 
second.” “Did you find blood?” Doug asked her. She shook her head; she 
hadn't wanted Colby to know. What would he think? “She says she didn't 
find any blood, so she wasn't raped. So somebody must have just 
molested her. Weird! Why go to the trouble of drugging someone and than 
stop short of rape?” Doug wondered aloud. “Will have to call in and 
report this.” “No!” Colby stated. Nearly numb from shock. Christ he was 
in a mess! 

“What do you mean no? Dammit! Colby this has to be reported. Somebody
molested this poor kid. You should see her she's a mess! Your in 
forensics, you know the rules.” Doug demanded. What the hell was wrong 
with his brother? “I mean, I'll take care of it. I'll come home; 
there's no need for you to get involved. You could get into trouble 
over this.” Colby reasoned with his brother. “What about your class?” 
Doug asked. “I'll tell the instructor I'm not feeling well.” Which 
wouldn't be a lie he thought grimly? “Tell Mindy I'll be home as soon 
as I can.” “Fine, you take care of it than. I'll head into the clinic.” 
Doug was relieved to hand the mess over to his brother. Hanging up the 
phone Doug turned to Mindy, who was staring intently at the floor. 
“Colby's on his way home. He'll take you to the hospital and get you 
checked out. You'll need to file a police report.” Doug told her. “What 
for?” Mindy asked still staring at the floor. “I don't remember who did 
it.” “I know, but they'll still be able to lift trace samples off you. 
It's unlikely but the guy's DNA might already be in the system. Just 
don't take a shower or change for that matter. I've got to get going.” 
Doug replied checking his watch. “Have Colby call me tonight.” Setting 
his empty cup on the counter he headed for the front door. 

Mindy stood there in the kitchen for a long time after he left. Just
staring blankly at the wall. Screw it she thought. I'm not going to the 
hospital, or to the police. She didn't remember anything, and her Dad 
would freak if he heard about this. He wouldn't let her make anymore 

trips to L.A alone. She hadn't been raped, so some creep had put his
hands on her. It wasn't worth ruining her life over. But she knew 
Colby; he took this kind of thing seriously. I'll take a shower, than 
there won't be any evidence to collect. Which meant it would do no good 
to inform the cops. Hurrying to the guest bathroom, she stripped off 
her clothes. She was glad to be able to scrub herself off, she felt 
dirty. The hot water soothed some of the tension. It felt good to be 
clean she thought as she dried off. Colby would be pissed; he took this 
kind of thing seriously. But dammit she wasn't a forensic case to be 
studied. She had made a bad mistake, and she'd paid the price. Things 
could be worse she thought. She pulled on a comfortable pair of 
pajamas, she was still tired, and planned to spend the day resting. 
Reaching out Mindy started to make her bed up. Colby was a neat freak, 
who liked things in order. So she was always careful to keep things 
clean and orderly around his house. Pulling the comfortable back, she 
reached down to grab the sheet that was bunched at the foot of the bed. 
Pulling the sheet up she smoothed it out. She noticed a lump at the 
foot of the bed. Reaching to smooth it out she realized that there was 
something under the sheet, probably a sock. She lifted the sheet to get 
at the sock. Instead she found a pair of underpants. The panties she'd 
been wearing last night. She stared at them in confusion. She hadn't 
lost them at the party. She must have taken them off. But why had she 
done that? Frowning she set the panties aside and went back to making 
the bed. She puzzled over the panties trying to figure out what would 
cause her to take them off. God, had she wet her pants? Finishing the 
bed she picked up her panties and sniffed them. She didn't detect the 
smell of urine on them. Just her normal musty scent, and than it hit 
her. She remembered sitting up in the bed.  Her shirt had been up, 
showing her naked breasts. Colby had been standing by the bed, looking 
at her. Oh no she thought wildly. She had thrown herself at Colby. She 
must have taken her panties off, and pulled her shirt up in an attempt 
to turn him on. That's why he'd looked so upset that morning. What had 
she done? He would never let her stay at his house again. Of course she 
was drugged up at the time. Something she would point out if she ever 
got the courage to face him again. And he would be home to deal with 
her wild rape accusations soon. Maybe she should pretend she didn't 
remember anything. It wouldn't work; he would want to talk about what 
was going on. She felt sick, what if he didn't want to be friends with 
her anymore. Clearly she was causing him a lot of trouble. Like missing 
class to come home and deal with her. “Mindy!” She froze. He was home! 
Crap! She considered hiding for one panic filled moment. Moving slowly 
she headed out of her room and down the hall toward the living room. 
She found Colby waiting for her in the living room. She couldn't bring 
herself to look at him, so she stared at the sofa. “We need to talk 
about what happened last night.” Colby started. He was standing next to 
the sofa. “Come sit down.” He invited, she looked terrible. He felt 
liking shooting himself. Mindy took a seat quickly her eyes centered on 
the floor. Colby studied her for a moment. He couldn't sense anything. 
Her defenses were up. The fact that she refused to even look at him was 
unnerving. “About last night.” “I found my panties, so I know I wasn't 
molested at the party.” She blurted out nervously. “I'm sorry you came 
home for nothing. I don't feel so good; I think I'll go back to bed.” 
She started to rise to her feet, but he reached out pulling her back 
down beside him. “Not so fast we need to talk about what happened.” 

“Are you going to throw me out?” She asked fearfully. “I promise it
won't happen again. Please don't throw me out! Give me another chance.” 
Her vision blurred with tears she kept her head down. “Why would I 
throw you out?” Colby asked startled. “Because of what I did?” Her 
voice broke as she started to sob. Reaching out Colby pulled her onto 
his lap. She continued to weep burying her face against his neck. “It's 
all right; I'm not going to throw you out.” Colby assured her. “What is 
it you think you did?” Colby asked. Why would she think he would want 
to throw her out? “I threw myself at you.” She answered between sobs. 
“Is this about what you said on the phone last night?” Colby 
questioned, thinking about the want you, love you thing. “No, God what 
did I say on the phone?” She asked finally getting control of herself. 
What had she said to him on the phone? How deep of a hole had she dug 
herself into. “It's not important, you were drugged up.” Colby 
dismissed the question. “So what is it you think you did?” “You know 
what I did, you were there.” She dodged the question, still wondering 
about the phone thing. Not that she really wanted to know what she had 
said. “No, I don't know?” Colby commented confused. 

Staring at his chest a blush reddening her face, why did she have to
talk about this? He knew what she had done after all. “I took my 
panties off in front of you, and showed you my boobs.” She stammered. 
“I was drugged I didn't know what I was doing.” “That's what you think 
happened?” Colby asked startled. He considered letting that version of 
things stand. But he couldn't do that he decided after a moment. It 
would be lying and he had always been honest with her. “You didn't take 
your panties off, or pull your shirt up. I'm responsible for that.” 
“Why?” Now she was confused. Sighing Colby told her the whole story. 
How he'd climbed into bed with her intending to sleep. How he'd drifted 
awake to find a woman's body next to his. Not being fully awake, he'd 
started moving his hands over her body. He'd taken off her panties, and 
pulled up her shirt. He'd touched her breasts; he had fingered her 
vagina, to the point that she had an orgasm. He'd been about to enter 
her body when she spoke his name. That had woke him up and he'd 
realized he was in bed with her. Her face burned redder still at the 
intimate recounting. “So I'm at fault for what happened.” He finished 
more than a little uncomfortable. Talking about it had caused his penis 
to harden painfully. The fact that she was sitting on him was making it 
even worse. She hadn't said anything during his recount. Mindy finally 
shifted turning to look at him with her face still red. Colby groaned 
she was straddling him. If she moved forward an inch she'd be sitting 
on him. 

“Is that really what happened?” She questioned. “Yes.” Colby replied
just barely able to keep from groaning. She shifted intending to get 
up. But the move brought her crotch in contact with his. She froze at 
the feel of him against her. He was hard she could feel it. She was a 
virgin, but she understood fully about men and women. He was clearly 
aroused. She shuddered feeling an aching throbbing begin in her vagina. 
She stared at Colby in wonder. He swallowed hard, god he was aroused. 
What was worse he could feel her tremors of desire. Her nipples 
hardened, and ached. They just sat there staring at each other, their 
faces only inches apart. He needed to get her the hell off him, but he 
couldn't seem to move. And than he watched Mindy moisten her lips, and 
something snapped. He pulled her forward capturing her lips with his. 
He groaned as she parted her lips readily. Her tongue readily meeting 
and playing with his. His hands moved under her top to cup her naked 
breasts drawing a whimper from her.  He groaned into the kiss. She 
pulled back, breaking the kiss. She quickly pulled her pajama top over 
her head. Christ, she's not shy! He stared at her bare breasts. And 
than she was kissing him again, his hands covered her breasts, before 
drifting to her waist. He lifted her lowering her onto the couch, his 
mouth never leaving hers. Colby was lost in the feel of her. He moved 
his lips to her neck, trailing kisses along her neck. His hand moved 
along her leg and up over her hip. His mouth settled on a hardened peak 
drawing a moan from her. He groaned as his fingers slipped under her 
pajama bottoms and into her panties. She whimpered at the feel of his 
fingers slipping inside of her. She was so wet and tight. He could 
hardly stand it. His fingers found and circled that most sensitive spot 
that was literally throbbing. She moaned in ecstasy as his knowing 
fingers drove her further over the edge. Her entire body bucked as she 
peaked crying out in wonder. Moving up Colby kissed her gently. God he 
wanted her, but he had to stop. She was just a kid.  Shifting away from 
her, he got up. “I'm gonna go take a shower.” Colby called over his 
shoulder. If he looked back he wouldn't be able to stop himself from 
taking what she offered so freely. He needed to get out of here and go 
see Teri. She'd be at work, he thought. But she would be willing to 
come home he knew. Stripping off his clothes he stared down at his 
penis that was standing at attention. He would have to take care of 
himself this was unbearable. Closing his hand over his penis, he rubbed 
up and down. Until with a gasp he came. He quickly wiped up the semen 
from the floor. Turning on the shower he stepped under the spray hoping 
to further cool off his body. What the hell was wrong with him? Twice 
in one day he'd fooled around with a minor. This had never been a 
problem before. Mindy had been staying at his house since she was 
fourteen. And he'd never been tempted to cross the line with her 
before. He'd always been more than willing to wait for her to grow up. 
Last night he'd only been half-awake. But he couldn't use this excuse 
on his latest lapse of judgment. He'd been very much aware of what he 
was doing. But he hadn't been able to stop himself. He'd never wanted 
someone so much. Christ he needed to stop thinking about it; he could 
feel himself getting hard again. He would have to start seeing Teri 
more often when Mindy was around. He couldn't allow this to happen 
again. He needed to forget the whole thing. But how to deal with Mindy, 
he didn't want to hurt her, and rejection from him would hurt her 
badly. He'd have to make her understand his reasoning. Damn, what a 
mess! 

Mindy had watched Colby walk away from her and into his room. Why had he
stopped? She hadn't asked him too. She had wanted him so bad, her 
virginity be damned. She lay there on the couch for several minutes, 
hoping he would change his mind and come back. Hearing the shower, she 
knew the moment had passed. It's because he thinks I'm too young. So 
what if I'm only sixteen, it's my body. She wanted him to be her first 
lover; she'd always loved him. She had never dreamed that he would be 
attracted to her, or that he would touch her so intimately. Sighing she 
got up, her legs trembled. I guess I'll take a shower, she thought 
grimly. She headed to the guest bathroom, not bothering to put her top 
back on. She left it lying on the floor. She'd pick it up later. 
Turning on the shower, Mindy pulled her pajama bottoms and panties off. 
The crotches of both were damp. Climbing into the shower Mindy enjoyed 
the cooling spray of water over her body. 

Hearing the sound of the shower Colby sighed. She was in the shower. If
he hurried he could be out of the house before she was done. He 
finished dressing, and pulled on loafers. Dressed in a pair of tan 
shorts and a white polo shirt he headed to the garage, stopping to 
write a brief note to Mindy. He felt like a jerk for running out on 
her. But he had to get away. He hit the button for the garage door 
opener, and climbed into his black corvette. He'd gotten the corvette 
as a graduation gift from his Grandpa. Backing out of the garage and 
onto the street Colby headed toward Teri's. Fishing his cell phone out 
of his pocket he dialed her familiar work number.
