Feeling nothing but pure guilt for kissing Rafe whilst I'm dating Luke, I join back up with him and his friends pretending like it didn't happen.

"Hey, you okay?" He asks pulling me close to him. Is it obvious. Are my lips swollen? Is my face flushed? It's just hot in here right?

"Yeah I'm fine why?" I reply nervously.

"Just making sure." He smiles pecking my cheek.

I pull away from him going to the table to find whatever I can to wash away my guilty sins. I drink shot after shot. Spirit after spirit. I can find myself getting more wasted by the second.

"Maybe you should calm down a bit." Luke comes over taking the bottle of jaeger from my hands.

"Hey! No!" I take the bottle back downing what remains enjoying the painful burn down my throat.

"Vanessa you need to chill." Luke warns me with a cringed face.

"Dance with me Luke." I try to pull him closer to the dancing crowd but he remains stood where he is pulling his hand away.

"I can't dance."

"Fine. Kiss me." I walk up to him expecting him to take me up on my request. Instead he glances around us and shakes his head.

"No Vanessa, not here in front of everyone."

Typical. He's just as bad as Rafe. "So you're embarrassed of me?"

He looks panicked that I solved the problem. "No, I'm not. I just-"

"Whatever, see you later." I wave him off as I disappear into the crowd. All guys are the same so might aswell have the one I want.

I try my best searching for Rafe but I can't see him anywhere. I go back to the room where I kissed him not long ago and decide to text him.

Me:

Rafe:

Me:

Rafe:

Me:

Room

Rafe:
On my way

Suddenly the door clicks open and Rafe appears locking the door behind him.

"What's up Ness?" He walks over to me concerned.

"Kiss me." I wrap my arms around his neck.

"What? Are you drunk?" His arms snake around my waist.

"No definitely not." I giggle.

He laughs along. "You are! My Nessa's drunk."

"I love it when you call me yours." I admit as our eyes meet.

"You'll always be mine."

"Kiss me Rafe."

"I can't." He sighs as his eyes flicker down to my lips.

"Why!" I protest.

"You're drunk Ness, it would be wrong."

"Rafe I don't care, please just kiss me." I tug at his neck trying to pull him down closer to my face.

He chuckles at my weak attempt. "Nice try."

I push him away in frustration. "Fine. I'll just go make out with the next guy I see."

All of a sudden I'm pulled back around and my lips meet with his. I kiss him desperately pushing him back against the bed. He sits down and I straddle his lap whilst he moves his hands to my ass. I moan against his lips, running my fingers through his hair. I've never been so content than I am right now.

I go to unbutton his shirt but he stops me.

"Rafe. What are you doing." I try to smack his hand away but he remains guarding his top button.

"Nessa. As much as I want to, we can't." He sighs sounding sexually frustrated having to do the right thing.

"Your loss, babe." I giggle and he laughs.

"I know that, babe." He sarcastically copies me.

My phone buzzes, I take it out trying to focus on my screen. "What does it say?" I put my phone in Rafe's face asking him to read it.

He holds the phone still. "Sarah is looking for you. She wants you to go join the game."

"Shit! Come with me?" I ask him pleadingly.

"Nah I'm good."

"Please." I whine holding his hand.

"Fine!" He finally agrees getting up and following me out of the room.

I follow Rafe to the room where Sarah said she was walking in behind him everyone's eyes in the poorly formed circle turn to us.

I barely even notice with the room spinning, I stumble grabbing onto a chair perching myself on the arm. To my surprise I managed to sit beside my drunk best friend.

"Hey, you found me!"

"I did!"

The circle consists of my brother, his friends, Luke, his friends, girls I don't know, that one girl I do know.

My brother walks over and bends down to Sarah asking if she wants another drink.

"Yes please and get V one too please." She grabs my hand entwining our fingers. He huffs at her request but doesn't argue.

"Okay V, your turn!" Kelce exclaims.

"Dare." I don't hesitate. I know the dare Kelce is going to resort to.

"I dare you to make out with Sarah." He rubs his hands together smirking.

I shake my head. "What a waste of a dare Kelce, I'd have done it regardless." I grin turning to Sarah who's also grinning. We start making out and I already know Kelce is about to wet himself with excitement.

We break away, the girls rolling their eyes at us and Rafe acting uninterested. I see him whack Kelce over the back of the head whilst he chews down on his knuckle.

"V your turn to ask." Sarah pats my leg.

"Luke?" He looks up surprised I even asked him after the way things went awkward earlier.

"Truth." He taps the rim of his drink nervously.

"I have a scar on my body. Where?" People look at me confused about the question but it's the first thing that came to mind.

He thinks before answering. "Erm, your leg?"

"Which one?" Sarah adds.

He looks stumped.

"Left, top inner thigh."

Everyone turns to look at Rafe. Luke looks at me in disgust before getting up and walking out. Sarah looks at me trying to contain her laughter. I look at Rafe who has a confident smirk on his face which causes a grin to creep onto mine. He gives me a quick wink before standing up and walking out.
