He raped me! That son of a bitch raped me!
I know that no court in the world would convict him since I didn't holler, scream, scratch and kick but I know that he had sexual intercourse with me without my permission or approval.
It all started when he asked me to go to dinner with him. His name was Al and he was a regular visitor to the dentist office where I work as a technician. He called on us twice a week to sell supplies and take away medical wastes. He was tall, handsome and articulate. I should have wondered why he wasn't married but I had been involved in my own life until my boyfriend and I broke up recently so I welcomed a date with a nice looking man. Besides I was horny.
When he called at my house for me on Friday night, he was a perfect gentleman as he helped me on with my coat. On the way to the restaurant I couldn't help but think that perhaps a nice evening meal, some nice conversation, and then as a topper for the evening, some very nice, pleasant, casual sex.
The first warning sign came when the hostess seated us. "Hey girlie, bring me a double Old Grand Dad, on the rocks, pronto."
The cocktail waitress arrived with his drink in just a few minutes. By the time she took my order he had drained his and asked for another. He ordered his third double shot from the waitress who took our dinner order.
Dinner was a fiasco. Conversation on his part was slurred and punctuated with a series of four letter words of which the national verb was used most often. He had his fourth and fifth drink during dinner. I seriously thought of excusing myself to go to the restroom and slipping out to take a cab home. I then realized I didn't have enough cash with me so I was trapped.
The ride home was an exercise in terror. He raced at breakneck speed, dodging in and out of traffic. I prayed that the police would see us, but you know, there's never one around when you need him. We pulled up at the curb in front of my house. I murmured "good night," undid my seat belt, and bolted for my front door. I had the door unlocked and was almost inside when he grabbed my arm and turned me around.
He engulfed me with his arms and the smell of bourbon was overpowering. I gave him a sisterly kiss on the cheek, said "thank you for a lovely evening" pushed him away and opened the door again.
"Not so quick bitch, I didn't blow eighty bucks on dinner for a peck on the cheek and a thank you. I want a piece of ass."
He roughly shoved and followed me into the living room and began to take off his tie and jacket. I watched, transfixed, as he sat down and began to remove his shoes and socks. Seeing an opening I made a run for the bedroom, hoping I could get inside, close and lock the door but he was too quick for me. He pushed the door open and swaggered into the bedroom.
