while i too think bad of rapists, i do believe its justified in the story because its not an improbable situation. and while she may have been forced the result is psychological scarring to the aggressor.
Agree with you.

However, if the protagonist is able to act this way despite his age [14], it tells us a few things about him:
1) He is extremely frustrated with his relationship with the girl. As is stated, he has a massive crush on her, but she acts like he doesn't exist.
2) This rape was more about the protagonist trying to force himself into her life; he wanted so much to be noticed by her that he even misinterpreted her actions as acts of seduction. It was also about dominance; again, to prove to the girl he actually exists.
3) The fact that he swore using language that better fitted an adult also suggests that he is a very intelligent boy, which he is.
First than anything, hi Raze! Good start for your story.
Well, now about it, sorry if I don't understand at all, but your points 1) & 2), the whole part where he starts to dominate and later rape her appears to be a bit unrealistic/exaggerated. I mean, he likes her so much that can't think in another thing, then makes a wrong move that makes her cry, and ends up shouting at her as if it was her fault, to later suddenly take and rape her under rage... Where is the love? This guy appears to have some psychological/rage problems or so, specially at 14. As one said here, a normal guy wouldn't rape a pubertal girl.
And about point 3), I think that the use of that language on the portrayed situations doesn't demonstrate intelligence, but the opposite. With its use at that age, I think, he tries to appear more mature than he is and to put a tough front. As I already said, he shout at her with those profane words without control. The more intelligent way would be talking softly to calm her and explain the situation.
You could add sense to all this if you explain the characters' background somehow through the story (maybe in the 7-13 lap you mentioned); or, if I'm wrong, explain it here, after it's just my point of view :). In the other hand, I like the part after the rape as it was much more realistic as of characters' reaction because of how the guy realize he has done the craziest thing and enters in shock (more true for a 14 old) and in extreme pressure tries to fix it somehow.
The last thing would be, as pointed by Hibia, some word repetition issues, but it's not big deal and generally easy to correct. Said this all, I like the story overall, being sort of fresh, and well wrote and narrated. Keep up with it. I hope my comments/suggestions can help its improvement somehow :).
