My breath was shaky and my hands were trembling. I felt like I could just pass out right here and now. I rubbed the side of my foot, my ankle was quite swollen, seems as though I'd twisted it when I was shoved.
" come on Ophelia. get it together. you've got this. "
" Yeah you've got this. "
" what? god? "
" Not god. Bella. I'm in the stall next to you. "
I flushed the toilet and walked out of the stall and was greeted with a tall girl, slender shoulders and long tanned legs that peeked out of her royal blue dress. She had long black hair, the underneath of it was blue like her dress. I gulped, slightly in fear.
" You look like a little bird who's had her wings snapped off. "
I simply nodded.
" Your Ophelia Drivas right? "
" yeah- how did you? "
" Oh please your the girl with the hot hot bodyguard. "
I felt my cheeks redden slightly.
" he can be alright. "
" Alr- Sorry back to you. Anything I can do to help? Alcohol, Drugs or uh.. a hug? "
Before I could react she wrapped her arms around me and hugged me with all her might. I couldn't help but hug her back, she was quite warm and I was freezing cold.
" thank you. "
" Now, Im going to touch up your makeup and fix that lovely blonde hair of yours. "
I nodded again and let her do her work, halfway through her doing my hair I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. No wonder Alex asked if I was ok. I look a mess.
After 30 minutes or so I looked better than I did before, the eyeliner she had put on me made me look fiercely sexy if I do say so myself.
" Now run off, pretty sure that hunk is waiting for you, and you've got an after party to plan. "
" oh fuck. right thank you so much. "
" Au Revoir ma cher! "
Something registered in my head and then I pushed it away and walked out the door, well I was jogging and then as I pushed the door open I felt a hand on my shoulder. On instinct I grabbed the wrist of the person and twisted it, I heard a grunt and then I realised I'd pinned Alex's arm behind his back and had forced him against the wall.
" Ophelia! "
" shit! Alex i'm sorry! I didn't mean- "
I let go of him and he just looked down at me, his piercing blue eyes full of emotion, he was also examining my face. I broke eye contact after a second and turned to walk away.
" We're gonna have to talk about this. "
" about what. "
I didn't stop and kept going, out the back exit and toward the dorm building, Alex didn't have to walk that much faster to keep up with me.
" Your mother and father! "
" right that, not now Alex! "
" Later then. "
I nodded hoping Alex would recognise it from the back of my head. He did and kept quiet apart from the time we were waiting on the elevator and he made a comment about the numbers going up.
We arrived back at the dorm to see that Gabi and Katja had set up everything and were stood in the middle of the room smiling. I almost felt like crying seeing it. It just felt meaningful that they did it for me. I had been the one who offered to throw the party in the first place.
