Hot Coffee (The Hollens)

Emma's POV

Halley had broken down into a fit. I cuddled her with a hug and told her that everything would be okay. Something was wrong with her, apart from being drugged. 

Matt must have mortified her.

Detective Sam and the others looked on, unsettled.

"Halley, please tell them what happened. You have to talk about it," I whispered calmly, making sure I didn't sound mean or harsh to upset her more.

"I don't want to. I can't," she cried.

What on earth happened to her?

"Halley, I know you're scared. I know you want to put this behind you but we need your statement on what happened when Matt pulled you into the house," Detective Sam pressed.

"I can't talk about it. I don't want to," she cried again and hugged me tighter.

Mr. Hollen looked like he was about to explode.

"Where's the driver? Maybe he could describe what he saw when he fetched Halley," Sam said to Mr. Hollen who began to make a call before Sam could finish.

The police officers stayed out in the living room since Halley was already in a delicate condition and they didn't want to upset her any more.

Luis arrived ten minutes later and inquisitiveness led me to eavesdrop. What Luis described when he entered into the house made me gasp. Tears flooded my eyes as he told them the details. I'd have been better of not hearing a thing.

Poor Halley. How could her boyfriend do such a thing to her? No wonder she didn't want to talk about it.
