Chapter 10

Lights flashing, music booming, bodies moving around each other. I seemed to be in some sort of drunken daze. I didn't really know where I was or what I was doing. I knew I was in a club, but that was about it. I was on the dance floor grinding on someone. I didn't really know who, I couldn't make out their face. I could feel how turned on they were.

"Will you come back to my place tonight baby?" they growled in my ear, before kissing my neck and sloppily sucking on my ear lobe. It sent shivers down my spine, but I wasn't sure if it was good shivers or bad shivers. I just nodded, unsure what to do. I couldn't think straight. The guy, whoever it was, grabbed my hand and pulled me through the club, heading towards the door.

"Shit, I don't have any money left" he cursed when we reached where the taxis were pulled up. "Here will have to do" he shrugged. He dragged me down the alleyway next to the club and roughly shoved me against the wall. I looked around, and saw a few other couples making out against the wall of the club.

"Who are you?" I asked the guy as his face became clearer. I didn't recognise him. He ignored me. He just pushed his lips onto mine and picked me up, wrapping my legs around his waist. He reached out his hand and placed it against my knickers which were now on show, massaging me through the material. I tried to push him off me, but I was too intoxicated to have any sense of orientation right now.

"Get off me" I slurred, trying to push him away.

"Oi!" I heard someone yell. I turned my head to see a figure coming towards us.

"Can I help you mate?" the guy asked as he pulled his hand away.

"She told you to leave her alone" the other man said, as one of my legs dropped back to the floor. I wasn't really sure what was going on. I hadn't had this much to drink in a long time.

"And what has this got to do with you?" "She's here with me, now get the fuck away from her" "Oh, and you're gonna make me, are you?" I heard a smack, and I fell to the floor. The next thing I knew I was being pulled back inside, but I wasn't sure who by. What had happened? I slowly closed my eyes.

My eyes opened again, and I was in a car. I had my head rested on someone's shoulder. I looked up, but I couldn't tell who it was. As we drove past a street lamp, and light shone into the car, I made out their face. I think it was Aston. I sat up straight and put my hand to my head, where it seemed to hurt alot. Someone grabbed me by the waist and pulled me out of the car. Where was I?

*Aston's POV*

I watched from our booth as some random guy dragged Chloe out of the club. I knew she was hammered, and he was only taking advantage of her. I couldn't let that happen. I ran after them, pushing through the crowds of people. As I got outside, I couldn't see them anywhere. They must have already got into a taxi. FUCK. I was too late. Just as I was about to head back into the club, I heard a voice which I recognised.

"Get off me" it slurred. Was that Chloe? I peered down the alleyway at the side of the club, seeing the pair of them against a wall. Chloe had her legs wrapped around his waist, and the guy had his hand against her crotch.

"Oi!" I yelled, making my way towards them.

"Can I help you mate?" the guy asked, moving his hand. Thank god. I hated the thought of anyone else touching Chloe intimately. I know she wasn't mine, and we were just friends, but I'd always have feelings for her, deep down.

"She told you to leave her alone" I spat.

"And what has this got to do with you?" he asked cockily.

"She's here with me, now get the fuck away from her" I growled.

"Oh, and you're gonna make me, are you?" he smirked. That was it, I'd snapped.  I couldn't deal with this guy any longer. I threw a punch right in his face. He stumbled back and dropped Chloe on the floor. Oops. Hopefully she'd forgive me, considering I was pretty much saving her. The guy came back, and punched me this time. We quickly got into a brawl, soon enough being split up by a bouncer.

"Go home, the pair of you" he said, shoving us both.

"But-" I started. I couldn't leave Chloe here on her own!

"No buts!" he said. I sighed, and crossed the street, sitting on a bench opposite the club. I watched as the bouncer picked up Chloe and pulled her inside. As least she was safe now.

I reached into my pocket and grabbed my phone, calling Marvin first. No answer. I tried Oritsé next.. He answered.

"Ast? What's up?" he asked.

"I've been kicked out the club for fighting" I sighed.

"What? What's happened?" he asked, concerned.

"I'll explain later.. Chloe's been taken into the club on her own by a bouncer. Will you find her and send her out so I can take her home? She's hammered" I explained.

"Sure, I'll go find her now"

"Thanks Reesh" I said, hanging up the phone. 

20 minutes later, and Oritsé came out with his arm around Chloe's waist, pretty much dragging her out of the club. I crossed the road again to meet her.

"Hey, I've told you once!" the bouncer said.

"Yeah, sorry, I'm just meeting her" I said, taking hold of Chloe. "Thanks Reesh" I nodded as he disappeared back into the club. I pulled over a taxi and helped Chloe inside. When I got in the other side, she immediately shuffled closer to me and rested her head on my shoulder. I sighed and placed my arm over her shoulders as I gave the taxi driver my address.

Just as we pulled back onto our street, Chloe sat up and rubbed her eyes, before placing her hand to her head. She looked confused.

"That's £17 please mate" the driver said as we pulled up outside Chloe's house. I handed him a £20 note.

"Keep the change" I said, before pulling Chloe out the car. She didn't seem to have a bag.. She must either have left it in the club, or forgotten to bring one. Looks like she was staying at mine, since she didn't have a key.

"Aston, where am I?" she asked.

"Home. Come on, this way" I said, dragging her through my front door.

I helped her to the spare room next to my bedroom. I sat her on the bed and pulled back the duvet for her.

"Where are my pyjamas?" she asked, searching the bed for them. I guess she thought she was at home.

"I'll get some more for you" I chuckled. I dashed into my room and grabbed some of my boxers and a baggy top. The boxers would do as shorts, they'd be loose enough, she was only small.

"Here you go" I smiled as I walked back into the spare room. She seemed to have removed her dress, and was now laid in her underwear on the bed, staring up at me.

"Thanks" she grinned cheesily and immaturely. I handed them to her, before heading to the door.

"Where are you going?" she asked. I turned around to face her.

"I'm going to bed" I smiled.

"Are you not staying with me?" she frowned, giving puppy dog eyes.

"No" I sighed.

"Please?" she asked.

"Fine.. Get ready for bed, I'll be back in a minute" I tutted. Hopefully she'd fall asleep soon enough. It wasn't that I didn't want to share a bed with her, I just didn't want her to wake up in bed with me the next morning and not have a clue how she got there.

20 minutes later, and she was flat out. I could leave her be.
