Hate Burns || Drew Starkey

Chapter 27

alyssa's pov

Chase and Alyssa pull up to the hotel and tip the driver after thanking him. They walk together up to their floor where the entire cast is spread out between all of the rooms. As they near their rooms Alyssa looks at Chase and frowns.

"Most of my stuff is in this room. What if Drew is in there?" She asks, talking quietly just in case.

"What do you need? I'll grab it just go to your actual room and I'll be there soon," he offers causing the girl to give him an appreciative smile. 

"I'll just text you everything okay?" She whispers, and he nods as they go separate ways once she hands him her key card. As she walks into her actual room that she has not been in for some time she texts Chase everything that she'll need. Once she is in her room she instantly makes her way to the bathroom and starts a shower. As the girl bathes her body she lets her mind wander to the past month with Drew. These thoughts cause tears to pour out of her eyes as she lets them fall, seemingly safe in the shower. For some time she cries but eventually gets out of the water. stepping out and wrapping a towel around her body the girl catches a quick glance of herself in the mirror and frowns. eyes puffy obvious that she was crying.

not thinking twice she walks right out of the bathroom into the bedroom section to be met with a startled Chase. Chase quickly looks away as Alyssa apologizes.

"I'm so sorry I didn't even think about you being in here," She says embarrassed. 

"It's fine I didn't see anything, my eyes are closed now I promise," he says, starting to slightly chuckle which brings a smile to the girl's face.

She quickly gets a pair of jeans, underwear, bra, and t-shirt and heads back into the bathroom. Letting chase know the coast is clear she locks the door behind her. She checks the time, realizing it's already 10 pm, and quickly gets ready. Blow drying her hair is all the further she gets before Chase knocks on the door.

"Hey not hurrying you, just letting you know everyone is at Maddie & I's room. whenever you're ready," he says through the door softly. 

"ALmost ready sorry!" She replies and checks herself in the mirror. She frowns at her appearance but shrugs, not having the time to do anything about it. she walks into the bedroom part of her room and grabs a pair of socks, putting on her air force ones.

"I'm ready. thanks for waiting for me," She notifies Chase. He nods and smiles as they both head out the door. On the way out the girl grabs some truly's from her fridge and a bottle of half-full vodka. the two walk down the hall and end up right outside Chase's room. Music is heard from inside as he looks at the girl with a worried look.

"Are you sure this is what you want to do? We could totally bail and get late-night food and watch a chick flick," he offers trying to change her mind.

"No. I want to black out Chase," She replies and he nods, opening the door as he goes in first. Most of the cast turn to look at the two that walk in the door as the girls squeal and jump up to meet mostly Alyssa.

"Let's get wasted!!!" Bailey squeals pulling Alyssa along to the living room section. Alyssa looks around the room for Drew, finding him sitting by JD, already looking at her. She rolls her eyes and looks away from him, walking to the kitchen to put her drinks in the fridge. She opens the vodka as she is walking and takes a huge swig out of it, catching the attention of Rudy.

"Yo, slow it down Girl," he jokes not understanding the situation. She smiles at the boy and continues to drink from the bottle as she adds her cans to the fridge. A hand is placed on her shoulder, thinking it's Rudy again she turns around smiling.

"Ru..." She is met with a face that she was hoping to avoid the entire night. Her smile instantly falters as she goes to walk away without a word.

Drew stops her from moving as he boxes her in towards the corner. This causes her to frown again, still refusing to make eye contact.

"Alyssa. Talk to me right now." He demands, almost making her melt as if she had been able to forget the words that pierced through her chest. 

"No." She replies simply, still not looking up at him.

"What the fuck did I do? WHy are you being a child just fucking talk to me like an adult," he replies his voice getting louder and louder.

"Bro, leave her alone why the fuck do you have her cornered like that?" Chase comes up, saving the girl finally.

Alyssa sighs a breath of relief as Drew turns to look at Chase and step back a bit.

"Whatever she's being a fucking bitch anyways," Drew replies and walks away. Chase looks at the girl concerned but she tries to pretend nothing is wrong.

"What chase?" She acts clueless, chugging roughly two shots of the vodka enjoying the burn as it slides down her throat.

"That wasn't cool. He's drunk as hell but that wasn't cool Lyss. Let's go somewhere else," He tries one last time to convince the girl to leave.

"No Chase I want to hang out with my friends." She shoves her way past him and starts to dance with Rudy and Bailey in the middle of the dining room.
