Before any one of us could say anything a phone chimed repeatedly. Our eyes lingered on each others before I decided to look down to see if it was my phone that was ringing.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAN1D2UZHUVS
It's Sarah.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAmKdw4XB4JT
"Hello? Kai is this you?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANArlVDYE8UCp
"No, It's me Vee... you called me? Is everything okay?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAbooJP0QZ4q
"O my gosh Vee... Jordan is super drunk and I need help getting her back."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQSPsr9Efpu
"Okay I'm coming! Where are you right now?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAlgK935H80P
"I'm outside and she's passed out on the floor in the front yard! Hurry! This is so embarrassing."
91Please respect copyright.PENANA9rDZlDzZaL
"Okay, I'm comi-"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtmgl8r356o
She hung up.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAwWCZW4WagW
"Fuck."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdwIUayShLd
"What's wrong? Is everything okay?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAnsne4j2LvC
I looked up at Ian with his furrowed eyebrows and look of confusion and worry. I wish that the moment we had wasn't ruined by my drunk friend. I wanted it to last longer because I didn't know if this was a one time thing. If he was going to go back to treating me normal or if this kiss meant something to him. I didn't have time to think about any of that right now because I needed to figure out how to help Jordan.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAUWeR2gVYK5
"It's Jordan. She's blackout drunk and she drove us here. I need to find us a way to get back and make sure she's okay."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAPbiAHaeaWG
"I can take you guys back."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvsbMj4OOUU
"Are you sure?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAGGKxh7Un5i
"Of course. I don't mind."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdg2ekgkCmV
I really had no choice. I was stuck riding back with him again.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAozU30Sqek3
"That would mean a lot. Thank you so much."
91Please respect copyright.PENANA6X0urpfRqT
"Don't thank me. Now let's hurry before anything happens to your friend."
91Please respect copyright.PENANATnjFLFBoAd
We leave the the place we were and sped walk through the hall and down the swirly stairs back to the main floor where most of the people were at. The party was still going on but there were a-lot less people than before when I had arrived. It seemed to have been dying down as it was getting late, but there were still a good amount of people.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA49gftIMe9Y
Ian and I ran outside to search for Sarah and Jordan. We shortly found them by the mail box in front of the house with Jordan laid out on the grass like a dead body and Sarah bent down moving frantically over her body.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAPSJ5kg7Tm5
"Sarah!"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAzYa3VAReLO
"Oh my gosh Vee! Please help I can't get her to wake up she just passed out. I'm scared I don't know what to do how are we going to get home."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAUJx1YYBHsJ
"Is she breathing?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAirY7DvaGrP
"Yes she's breathing she's just really drunk."
91Please respect copyright.PENANA4UboNq1aIw
"What did she have?!"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAc8zZdGkFBT
"I don't know! We were having a drinking competition with Kai and his friends and-"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAywLrM0GgYr
"You were with Kai?" Ian said interrupting our discussion.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZo4foIa3I4
"Yes that doesn't matter. We need to get her back to the dorm now!"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQrhHRsCs41
"Ian said he can help us."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAKsAvdDPD3g
"Okay great let's hurry before people start crowding around and making a scene."
91Please respect copyright.PENANABuT7jGWgXN
Ian crouched down and scooped Jordan up easily into his arms bridal style, letting her head rest on him for neck support. He led the way and walked us towards his car. Sarah and I were a few feet behind him but far enough to where he wouldn't be able to hear our conversation.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAD98zCatWD0
"Why did you think I was Kai on the phone?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAVe1EN8MZFY
"What do you mean?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANA29UZib6Nco
"When you called, you said Kai."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAbIfSihq7MX
"I did? Oh.."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdP0fkEY5Bz
I tried to read her face to see if I could tell if she was going to lie but she was looking down.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA1JMshWLKmn
"I've been drinking tonight so it was probably the Malibu talking."She let out a dry laugh and we continued walking to the car.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtNR7W8GXZC
Something was definitely off. I wanted to press her further but I didn't want to create unnecessary drama at the moment. It didn't feel like the right time to ask too many questions about it considering our friend was passed out drunk in Ian's arms.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA0FQFCa6RVK
I'll ask her about it later...
91Please respect copyright.PENANAfXE9IkUBlH
We reached Ian's car and he gestured for one of us to open his back seat doors. He placed Jordon onto his leather seats delicately.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAw4lBGVKsbd
"I'll sit in the back." Sarah got in lifting Jordan's head onto her lap.
91Please respect copyright.PENANACTh6nrEI64
Ian opened the passenger door for me to get in and got in the car after a few seconds.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAzTCEB4V2dY
"Jordan lives in the dorm, just drop us off on campus."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtJl3GlmSux
We started driving towards the academy in silence with a couple of snores coming from the back. I leaned my head against the window looking outside to the beautiful houses we drove by on the way back to school.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAXep0fkOfN7
"Are you okay?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAzvZqOJiVKF
Ian's voice echoed in my ear and I waited a moment before answering. I almost forgot we kissed. How could I forget?
91Please respect copyright.PENANAf2jIFHMnlm
I don't wanna make things awkward.. but I can't help it. He doesn't know that he's my first kiss... it's just a kiss though it's not that serious. Don't overthink it Vee.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAPeCkUNWSMJ
" Mmmhm."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAKdHKqw1Wzi
Ugh, shoot me now.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAKJ6eGe8eMc
He didn't say anything else the rest of the ride. It wasn't a long drive but it felt like we were in there forever.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAXd7NRwgz73
We reached the school and it was pretty late. No one was around other than a few officers leaving. He parked right up in front of the girls dorms in a handicap spot. We both got out of the car at the same time and he opened the back to wake Sarah and Jordan up.
91Please respect copyright.PENANATDF3aenvKn
"We're here already?" Sarah said groggily.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAAMgSPwaUaK
I helped her out of the car and Ian grabbed Jordan as she was still passed out. She was waking up a little but too drunk to tell what was going on and fell back asleep.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA5pe4ycMAh7
We reached her dorm room but realized none of us have the key to her room. We knocked on the door continuously for a couple minutes until we heard a noise from behind the door.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAnv7ClJQ6kJ
The door swung open swiftly and a short girl appeared in front of us looking very annoyed.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAIzn5JYCrUw
Her roommate.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAR3U0j485wr
"Sorry. We couldn't find her key and she fell asleep in the car..."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQi4BQ8Hkvp
"Whatever. Come in."
91Please respect copyright.PENANARAMAEBCvB5
She walked away and climbed back up onto her bed and turned over.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAcD47BBIsiY
Ian walked into the dark room over to her side and laid her onto her bed. Sarah and I remained silent at the door waiting for him to return. He walked back quietly making sure not to wake up her roommate again and shut the door behind him.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvCkxiD75hc
"Thank you so much Ian I owe you one."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAeK61Oq7K0w
"Don't worry about it."He flashed her a friendly smile.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAAmiWRDE9zf
"Do you need a ride home?
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ2TqmDbiE
"Oh...I'm good I have a ride. What about you Vee?
91Please respect copyright.PENANAokXDWsgRBu
I don't really feel like going home right now.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAqv1scPo5YR
"No. I'm good."
91Please respect copyright.PENANANsx6ekW24G
Sarah nodded but Ian's eyes lingered on me questioning my answer with his expression.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA0As4DOhZN5
"Okay well, bye guys! Text me when you get back Vee! Thanks for the ride Ian."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAkoXx5DOaYs
She walked away grabbing her phone and putting it to her ear and disappeared around the corner.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAeSOCmtnulW
"Well I should get going too then."
91Please respect copyright.PENANARpjyOdk0R1
"Where are you going if you aren't going home?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAAVSmwLV9Zr
I fell silent. I couldn't really answer his question because I didn't know the answer myself. I don't know where I wanted to go I just knew I wasn't ready to go back to my home.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZZXHeylwul
"I'm not sure."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAOcRBxuh101
"Come to my room."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAHf4MzgJpZx
I raised my eyebrows in surprise to his reply. He wanted me to come to his dorm?
91Please respect copyright.PENANAxmu9RGCq3T
"Just for a little. Until you decide when you want to go home."
91Please respect copyright.PENANApI4JC3e3RO
"...Okay."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQz8BYG13EG
We started walking slowly back down to his car and to the boys dorm.
91Please respect copyright.PENANALaTmzqfiD0
When we arrived he knocked first before opening the door. His room wasn't a mess but there were papers scattered out on his bed and desk. Mostly sketching and doodles and others math equations.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAntA6FS8RPb
"Sorry I didn't clean up."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAizduYZO455
He frantically collected the papers and put them in a folder and placed them into his backpack. His roommate wasn't there but his side of the room remained untouched almost as if he never slept in his own bed. Ian grabbed a shirt from his drawer under his bed and sweatpants and went to the bathroom for a brief moment and came out holding his clothing from the party and threw them into his hamper.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAyGtybbQpoR
After cleaning the papers up Ian gestured for me to sit on his bed next to him. I hopped onto his bed and we sat next to each other leaning onto the wall behind us. We began chatting about random things. Keeping each other company talking about nothing and everything. Our meaningless conversation ranged from art to science to food.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAi91DgAneUh
He was an interesting person. I couldn't read him. I didn't know what he was thinking when he invited me over, or when he kissed me, or that day in the rain. Some things he did left me questioning my judgment on wealthy people. Of course I haven't met a lot of them but the handful I have met have been nothing but assholes. He made me feel like maybe there were genuine people still left in the world.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAq7wSN7Ugf6
Pretty cheesy, I know.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQhuQNpCNg0
I couldn't trust my judgment completely because I've been wrong before.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA5mVsfgbJbG
Plus, he kissed me tonight and now I'm even more confused.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA2WcHWxWwgV
He got quiet for a minute. I hadn't noticed that I got distracted in my own thoughts and spaced out.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAaWk6jgdU1b
"Vee?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAkzWur6ZEbL
"Yeah?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtGpZwRyYZ4
"Are you really okay?
91Please respect copyright.PENANABcJnRhhfBd
"What do you mean?
91Please respect copyright.PENANA1IJXBlXqx0
Our eyes locked onto one another's.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAwZHk9Z7Z7N
"I mean, that day I gave you a ride to the bus stop...or even today, right now."He paused.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQVpTwomGF7
"Why don't you want me to take you home?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANA5iMEuGT9JJ
His eyes traveled through mine searching for an answer. They had a glimmer of wonder and anticipation shining through them.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA6DxthzXcVF
"I just don't like people coming to my house. I know you've taken me before but, I'm not ready to go back."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAj58do4P1l2
"You can stay as long as you'd like."
91Please respect copyright.PENANABVOV1dZTYG
He smiled at me again.
91Please respect copyright.PENANALwKegkxzTr
His smile. He's always smiling.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAjnPnV5Z5kq
"Why are you always so happy?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAJFjNjoPInJ
"What?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANA3fQhhnK4Wr
"I mean you're always smiling."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAx0n48jpKG9
"I'm not sure. I guess I like to see the good in everything."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAqHtzgGmYZF
"I guess I would be able to too if my parents were millionaires." I mumbled under my breath.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAh7gd0Snyjh
I don't know if he heard me but he didn't say anything. We both just sat there until he moved under the sheets. He laid under the covers and opened a spot for me to lay next to him. I tilted my head slightly confused. He patted the empty spot next to him and looked up at me.
91Please respect copyright.PENANASEvvqTCMK3
"You want me to lay down with my masquerade dress on?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANA8bg9Np8fv3
"Do you want to borrow some of my clothes?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAoNucYs9lIj
"Mmmm I'm too lazy." We both smiled and he nodded.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAqHmCrCLpjU
I laid next to him with my back on the wall and our faces towards each other. My dress was riding up my thigh because of how short it was. I felt self conscious thinking of every detail of my face was inches away from his and he could see every imperfection.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdaB6OEelqc
We stared at each other for Im not sure how long. He looked so happy. He always looked so happy. We both laid in our comfortable silence hypnotized by each others eyes.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAGKd4024apa
"Why did you kiss me tonight?"I broke our silence.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAiS8Sz3z4i4
"I've been wanting to for awhile now."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAMrjcgAqKUI
A while?
91Please respect copyright.PENANAJtBeoRDVST
"Oh."
91Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ec73MHlGM
Suddenly I felt very awkward and uncomfortable and began shuffling under the sheets. He looked a bit worried and by my face I guess he could see I was a bit uncomfortable.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAW2PTRwo312
"Do you regret it?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAiMJ7iBXqHM
"No. Sorry i'm just uncomfortable."
91Please respect copyright.PENANA7s9uY2nG5L
"Do you want me to get up?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANA0pDYjBzERz
"No, no. It's not you it's just my dress. It's really tight. I feel my circulation cutting off." I laughed.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAXIJpvp9zKt
"Take it off."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAbI0WrQRNAM
"I- I'm not wearing anything under it."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAVrHZDiDf5w
"It's okay. I can lay in my roommates bed if that makes you more comfortable."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAIjqekQsBDO
"No I wouldn't kick you out of your own bed. I'll just take it off."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAIgjTaxu5Cm
I pulled down a strap of my dress before looking his direction to see if he was looking. He covered his eyes with his hands and smiled which made me laugh a little. It didn't make sense to cover his eyes when I'd be laying in his bed naked in the end. I thought it was cute that he tried anyway.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvZxUO9SS3Z
I slipped out of my dress and threw it onto the floor and slid back under the sheets wrapping my body with the blankets so nothing was showing. I had nothing but my bra and non sexy underwear hoping he wouldn't see them.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAwoYpd1sG7j
"You can open your eyes now."
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvmOJDxtrlW
He uncovered his eyes and looked at my face then my exposed shoulders. I felt exposed and vulnerable but no longer uncomfortable. He couldn't see any parts of my body but my skin barely touched his clothes under the blanket.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtlssC6WQtS
"Are you comfortable?"
91Please respect copyright.PENANAFtbieWkSJi
I nodded.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAurxagqeFY1
"I feel very exposed."
91Please respect copyright.PENANADWUBrWYIJY
He sat up and slid his shirt off of his body and threw it on the ground next to my dress. He came back under the covers with me covering his body too.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAj5YeLeffIU
"There. Now you're not the only one."
91Please respect copyright.PENANARTzv5S49U8
I laughed. This was so dumb. All this could've been avoided if I just wore one of his shirts. There was no going back now. This is the first time i've ever been this close to a half naked boy in my 17 years of living. I didn't want to ruin it.
91Please respect copyright.PENANAdc7p25hrNu
We continued talking for hours. I didn't know what time it was because our phones weren't near us. Oddly enough, although we were both practically naked, he didn't make any advances. We just talked. He made me feel comfortable and the more we laid and talked the less nervous and awkward I felt. I almost forgot that I was completely exposed.
91Please respect copyright.PENANApqNLL6K0FN
My eyes were getting heavy and it felt like it was the next morning but it was still dark outside. He was talking to me about his pets growing up and I was just laying there studying his face while listening attentively. His voice was like melatonin and was putting me to sleep gradually.
91Please respect copyright.PENANADBdnsQ0rxD
I don't know what we left off talking about but I know before I drifted off into a deep sleep coma, I felt warm hands wrap around my bare skin.
91Please respect copyright.PENANA3iG1OIUoDJ
Too tired to question anything, I lay my head on his shoulder and passed out.
