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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKcyKmVcQP
It's Sarah.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5g4SDTxCp
"Hello? Kai is this you?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq7MpLbBz7
"No, It's me Vee... you called me? Is everything okay?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOU0gBUyERW
"O my gosh Vee... Jordan is super drunk and I need help getting her back."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGC9UDLQSr
"Okay I'm coming! Where are you right now?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwNO3TcMQw
"I'm outside and she's passed out on the floor in the front yard! Hurry! This is so embarrassing."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBXyyErCBw
"Okay, I'm comi-"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh0BaNhefc
She hung up.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoUdLqqhjg
"Fuck."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTevgOGHqct
"What's wrong? Is everything okay?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxkSEvHZzV
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqLirVv3YS
"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."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4naBitvKz
"I can take you guys back."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8eU8dy5PL
"Are you sure?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6n2kmBQizk
"Of course. I don't mind."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQNCW4RLGV
I really had no choice. I was stuck riding back with him again.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkLKOzW2ze
"That would mean a lot. Thank you so much."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJyF4LoTHc
"Don't thank me. Now let's hurry before anything happens to your friend."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpHJMS9eGa
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbB1QwdNd4
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemb26yUgRi
"Sarah!"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXjIOlwZH9
"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."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqrMCcDjYy
"Is she breathing?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEprfBFDyx
"Yes she's breathing she's just really drunk."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexsINs29rp
"What did she have?!"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXZwvJQWPP
"I don't know! We were having a drinking competition with Kai and his friends and-"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wonHTJmtg
"You were with Kai?" Ian said interrupting our discussion.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmO8uxCCkQ
"Yes that doesn't matter. We need to get her back to the dorm now!"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cJZQy4zoz
"Ian said he can help us."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZugPHuYOj
"Okay great let's hurry before people start crowding around and making a scene."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPl2qKT1yz
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GjxxI6J6p
"Why did you think I was Kai on the phone?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDHGUrnO7K
"What do you mean?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWJwk3ledX
"When you called, you said Kai."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5OTnx4Xrx
"I did? Oh.."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF9AzvPGmL
I tried to read her face to see if I could tell if she was going to lie but she was looking down.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ErgRnmf5z
"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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx6YOvoT6S
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgH9aNbti5
I'll ask her about it later...
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXlvgDJ66x
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHDWImVhwF
"I'll sit in the back." Sarah got in lifting Jordan's head onto her lap.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrVmSYT38g
Ian opened the passenger door for me to get in and got in the car after a few seconds.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8eMyhwu9x
"Jordan lives in the dorm, just drop us off on campus."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Db0H4xQNV
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdhu1lXbfM
"Are you okay?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOapHdwnEly
Ian's voice echoed in my ear and I waited a moment before answering. I almost forgot we kissed. How could I forget?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuahiJnCS2A
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBLa1K0UGh
" Mmmhm."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkbih4tJIz
Ugh, shoot me now.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNH9i1eYiV
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6l2LIcwQR
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4Sc8TDGf4
"We're here already?" Sarah said groggily.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkEclWX0Iw
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYRJg63rai
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI3dCUpjOO
The door swung open swiftly and a short girl appeared in front of us looking very annoyed.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfvLxNBIbp
Her roommate.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL97OBkeZub
"Sorry. We couldn't find her key and she fell asleep in the car..."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKIZIz4mVH
"Whatever. Come in."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Rzv3jI2KO
She walked away and climbed back up onto her bed and turned over.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wrbpvw8e1
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGISb7x0Gp
"Thank you so much Ian I owe you one."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFcFBU5Awz
"Don't worry about it."He flashed her a friendly smile.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8xnC8PYTv
"Do you need a ride home?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DVt4ENBc1
"Oh...I'm good I have a ride. What about you Vee?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzywD6SJQz
I don't really feel like going home right now.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7aRUWteJK
"No. I'm good."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2xaovfene
Sarah nodded but Ian's eyes lingered on me questioning my answer with his expression.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqikFBajzT
"Okay well, bye guys! Text me when you get back Vee! Thanks for the ride Ian."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOk0p8RrdC
She walked away grabbing her phone and putting it to her ear and disappeared around the corner.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93sWfn7lHt
"Well I should get going too then."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHeCDSWNtP
"Where are you going if you aren't going home?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2EtJkfkiG
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVPvXpv3x1
"I'm not sure."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16OFGLuXvg
"Come to my room."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhABIa8FdF
I raised my eyebrows in surprise to his reply. He wanted me to come to his dorm?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErDv9DDYPs
"Just for a little. Until you decide when you want to go home."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4d8fTenlGK
"...Okay."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQQKM0zt3S
We started walking slowly back down to his car and to the boys dorm.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj0kGtKlqu
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUabYb7dbd
"Sorry I didn't clean up."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO02b8DHoQ
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVcJCGykhZ
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUXEu9R6xX
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAxRAbjvTv
Pretty cheesy, I know.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWYgte1V8m
I couldn't trust my judgment completely because I've been wrong before.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwuJRpDxuM
Plus, he kissed me tonight and now I'm even more confused.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7HwP22jpp
He got quiet for a minute. I hadn't noticed that I got distracted in my own thoughts and spaced out.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQb9P6SSI1
"Vee?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZd9b3B6uG
"Yeah?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykQTwr1qXj
"Are you really okay?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nhLRfWU47
"What do you mean?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzJvgiiHcS
Our eyes locked onto one another's.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgkW67yv9N
"I mean, that day I gave you a ride to the bus stop...or even today, right now."He paused.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf7GqNqqQP
"Why don't you want me to take you home?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdVR1u76ao
His eyes traveled through mine searching for an answer. They had a glimmer of wonder and anticipation shining through them.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5d8UNcsm0
"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."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOpJs80CNf
"You can stay as long as you'd like."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbU0wZSVA1
He smiled at me again.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopnWoEfFCW
His smile. He's always smiling.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ826qDGX8Bj
"Why are you always so happy?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWHf1g8LKL
"What?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCAgOjptOl
"I mean you're always smiling."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdoMZS0YMh
"I'm not sure. I guess I like to see the good in everything."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXcn6Bpwz4
"I guess I would be able to too if my parents were millionaires." I mumbled under my breath.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj9Vm97zyU
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq1xiJCehf
"You want me to lay down with my masquerade dress on?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17YSFAIBIT
"Do you want to borrow some of my clothes?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsC2BmL6AE
"Mmmm I'm too lazy." We both smiled and he nodded.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjN5WXcXTg
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmUym48U47
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNysJSVVdN
"Why did you kiss me tonight?"I broke our silence.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMcZDxQsot
"I've been wanting to for awhile now."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2xJbe2i6H
A while?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KoevbkiRd
"Oh."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCOo6MxIFr
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPwrseri09
"Do you regret it?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6dOrdsNRm
"No. Sorry i'm just uncomfortable."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqppCBPbeVd
"Do you want me to get up?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIr7vSc9NL
"No, no. It's not you it's just my dress. It's really tight. I feel my circulation cutting off." I laughed.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ye9H3aptd
"Take it off."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt70Ow33LB9
"I- I'm not wearing anything under it."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qKLVv7gOl
"It's okay. I can lay in my roommates bed if that makes you more comfortable."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN5qwvpzgz
"No I wouldn't kick you out of your own bed. I'll just take it off."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNJH0AE0LK
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEL0syPuO1
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65fHF96frT
"You can open your eyes now."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMNiVR25Qq
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscRTA4sigS
"Are you comfortable?"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY0VoThWi7
I nodded.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfYLEAnk4A
"I feel very exposed."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U3dHSO2gT
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJejfVCVufJ
"There. Now you're not the only one."
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJc48miSQ3
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgIqxhQsLT
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyBkknhZwY
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAR0Lc2g7Y
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.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUi4ZeQIHJ
Too tired to question anything, I lay my head on his shoulder and passed out.
