That my friend had been kidnapped. And then that it was all a coverup for her going to a hotel with her boyfriend.

So we're all thirteen and have first started flirting with each other, when this couple started getting 'serious'. Let's call them lily and ed. They talk of each other in husband-wife terms. And lily's parents totally disapprove because ed is the kind of bully who'd grow up to be this alcoholic that gets into bar fights (actually happened, good catch there, mom and dad). And he's bringing down their daughter's grades.

So one morning we hear 'lily isn't in school today because she got kidnapped'. The story goes, she went for a walk in her neighborhood, and some car stopped with two women who wanted directions. As she leaned in to look into the address, they chloroformed her and took her away. She woke the next morning at the train station, with her jewelry gone... She used to wear gold earrings and a gold chain. And then she found a pay phone and called her mom.

But by afternoon another story begins circulating. Apparently her boyfriend wanted to take her virginity, so he lures her to a hotel, late in the evening, this is when parents noticed she was gone and began calling all of us. When she realized what was happening, it was too late to go home, and she actually ends up getting hit and abused by this boy. She grabbed his wallet (he was a rich kid and his parents rather give him money than their time), and ran for it, and spent the night at another hotel near the train station.

He found her and threatened to call the cops on her for theft and she freaked and called her mom while locking herself up in her hotel room.

Mom came and situation got dealt with. I don't know how.

So which version was true? Lily refused to talk about this, and refused to clarify even five years later. Now she's happily married and has two children so it'd be weird to bring it up. Her best friend swears by the first version but I personally think that's to protect her friend's privacy. I think a less dramatized second version was probably it.
