I was arriving home from class when I heard sniffling from inside my dorm. Opening the door I saw Rachel sitting on her bed crying. I tossed my bag onto my bed and sat down next to Rachel. "Whats wrong honey." I said as I embraced her in a hug. She was slightly surprised and hesitant at first but she allowed me to hold her.
We sat there for a few seconds before she cleared her throat and slowly began to speak. "I can't... deal... with it anymore." She sputtered out.
"Deal with what?" I said inquisitively Rachel told me everything, this came as a surprise to me.
"A man has been following me for the last week." Immediately my blood began to boil. "He approached me yesterday to ask me out. I was totally creeped out by him though so I said no and moved on, thinking it was over. Then yesterday he was everywhere, when I left the dorm, when I got to class, when I left class, all day."
I pulled her into the embrace more. "It's ok tell me everything." I said with great concern in my voice.
She stammered at first. "Then... then when I was heading back here he approached me again. This time he told me I had to go out with him. That we were soul mates. He told me that he was in love with me." She paused readying herself. "Then she grabbed me and pushed me up against the wall trying to kiss me." I was shocked worried how far this had gone. "I screamed and it seemed to worry him so he backed off and seeing that other people were looking he ran away." Relief came to me in a large wave, nothing had happened... yet.
"I'm so sorry Rachey." I said as I stroked her hair. "Starting tomorrow I will go with you. to class. We should go to the police and see if we can't get a restraining order." Rachel nodded slowly.
