Louvina's POV

"Adam" I gasp.

"Lou, what the hell are you doing here?!!" He yells.

"Adaaaammm" I slur and reach out to him.

He grabs my wrist and pulls me out of that tiny space. He sniffs around my face.
"Are you drunk?" He seethes.

I stare at him blankly. "What do you think hot stuff?" I deadpan.

"I can't believe this" he shouts and drags me out of the tiny house and towards the main house.

"Adam, Adam, where are you taking her?" Keke stumbles behind us.

"You're also drunk?" He asks in disbelief.

She shakes her head frantically but Adam mutters a "yeah right" and drags her too but unlike me, she follows quietly.
Adam stops walking and looks at me.
"If you don't stop trying to pull your hand out of mine, so help me God, I'll call Abbey to come get you herself" he threatens.

I nod slowly and follow quietly like Keke.

He opens the back door of his car for us and closes it behind us when we get in.

Because I can't stand the silence in the car, I decide to sleep until he drops me home.

********************

"Ugh" I groan into my pillow. My head really hurt like a bitch and I couldn't remember anything. Not even sure how I got home.

"Stop moving" a groggy voice groans from behind me.
My eyes widen. How did I not feel the arm that was wrapped around my waist? And the body radiating off heat behind me?

I slowly turn around and I'm met with a god. Oh wait, it was just Adam. He was shirtless and had ruffled hair and the sun was just highlighting his abs which made me drool.

"If you're done drooling, I'll get you some painkillers" he says in a monotone and gets out of bed and walks into his bathroom. He takes a while and I assume he's brushing his teeth.

He steps back into the room and hands me two pills and a glass of water then, he leaves the room.

I lay back in bed. I needed more sleep.

I wake up about an hour later and scream when I see Adam sitting on his desk staring at me.

"What the hell Adam?"

"No that's my line. What the hell Lou? Getting drunk at a party with frat boys, really? Oh and let's not forget the provocative dress you were wearing and that monstrosity on your neck!" he yells and narrows his eyes on a certain spot on my neck.

My hand goes to my neck in an attempt to cover it but from the look on his face, I wasn't even close to it. The hickey Luke gave me was still there.

"Adam about yesterday I'm sor-"

"No. You don't get to just say sorry and everything goes back to normal. Weren't you supposed to be at a sleepover at Keke's? How did you end up at a party and getting drunk?"

"I-it was a g-game we play-played"

He sighs. "Get dressed. I'm taking you home. And hide that thing" he points to some clothes on the bed and a small round container which I think is concealer then he leaves again.

The drive home was silent. Just like during breakfast and I know he's mad at me.

And he had a bruise on his knuckles. I wanted to ask but changed my mind. He wasn't in a good mood so I just asked another question.

"How did you even know where I was?"
I'm curious as to how he knew I was at a party.

"Devin. He's David's brother and he streaked a video of you giving some random guy a lap dance. Long story short, David told me, I asked for the location and that's about it" he explains. I knew Devin looked familiar.

"What happened to Keke?" I ask

"I took her home"

I nod.

"Once again Adam, I'm sorry"
I apologise again.

"No,no,no Lou. That was irresponsible. You were drunk and from what? A game. You weren't forced, but for what? Lou? For what? Why couldn't you just leave? And that guy, God knows what he would've done if I didn't come." He rants.

"It was only for seven minutes. There's not much you can do in seven minutes you know. Plus I'm not a child" I roll my eyes at his exaggeration.

"Oh no you're not. That's why you got drunk over a game and almost basically got raped in a supply closet" he says sarcastically and hits his hand on the steering wheel at the end.

"I wasn't raped and I wasn't going to be. And I'm not a child or immature?" I ask.

"From what happened yesterday, I would say otherwise" he answers.

Again, we sit in silence. As soon as he pulls into my driveway, I open the door and get out. I can believe he's mad at me for getting drunk over a pointless game but he didn't have to treat me like a kid.

I slam the front door and storm to my room. I don't get enough time to sit down when Abbey barges into my room.

"I'm glad you're back" she sighs.

"I have a work dinner thingy at a hotel this evening so you'll be alone" she says.

I simply nod.

"Hey, are you fine?" She asks.

"Yeah I'm just on my period" I lie.

"Mm.. Okay. Do you want me to call Keke to keep you company?" She asks,again.

"Nah I'm good" I reply.

"Okay. Get some sleep"

"Okay"

Once she leaves, tears start to fall from my eyes. I didn't do any of those ridiculous dares because of Adam and he's mad at me? I took the shots because for some reason, I felt like kissing someone else would be wrong even though he wasn't officially my boyfriend.

But he was scolding me like I was a kid. Oh wait, to him I was.

I started crying all over again when I remembered his harsh words from earlier.
