I drop my head into my hands and Joey quickly comes over to me. Damn it I hate him he smells like that stupid fucking cologne, and ugh I just hate him!

"Ivy hey what's wrong? I'm sorry." I feel his warm hands slowly pull down my hands and he holds my shoulders.
"No it's not youre fault I just wanted to come to my first party and have fun and drink and now it's just ugh it's ruined. I don't even know what happened."

I feel him pull me closer and he wraps his arm around my shoulders hugging me. His hand is on my back and as much as I hate him, I don't hate this.

"Ivy it's ok I'm sorry I just overreacted that's all. I'll tell you why later but not now ok?"
"I just ugh I wanna go home Joey."
I press my face into his shirt and try to stop crying.
"Ok yah I'll drive you. I just got here so I haven't drank anything yet. Parties are overrated anyways."
"Thank you. I'm in Azalea Hall. Are you sure though you don't have to do that? I'm sure Samuel could.."
"He's uh kind of drunk right now."
I back away in shock and look over at Sam. Yah he's drunk alright.
"But he's only 20." I gasp
"Ivy it's college this happens all the time, now you just have blackmail." He chuckles.
I finally let go of Joey and we walk out to his car. We don't talk much on the way home and he helps me get up the stairs to my room and even unlocks it for me.
"Have a goodnight ok." He says slowly shutting the door.
Oh crap I still have his hoodie, I need to give that back tomorrow I'm sure he needs it back. I unlock my phone and see texts from Jacob.

Jacob: hey Ivy so sorry about Joe he's a bit of an asshole.
Jacob: it was nice meeting you though. 😘

I'm not sure why I do but I reply to him.

Ivy: yah I'm still not sure what happened. Are you ok?
Jacob: of course he's a bit weak.
Jacob: but that doesn't matter do you maybe wanna meet up sometime? We could do coffee?
Ivy: I'll have to check my schedule but maybe. 🤔
Jacob: Sounds good to me, by the way that kiss was so hot Ivy. Would love to do it again sometime..
Ivy: of course 😮‍💨

I'm still not sure about Jacob. He just seems so nice and amazing but so is Joey. I went to get in bed and found Joey's hoodie and you know what. I put it on. No shame about it either. I'm wearing it.

I'll just wait and see what happens maybe Joey was just being protective. But everything is just so up in the air.

Oh shit I need to get this makeup off oh my gosh my mascara is probaly all down my face is right now. I rush to the bathroom and get it off as quick as possible. Thank goodness I would've broken out so bad if I didn't do that.

The next morning shockingly I wasn't hungover just a bad headache really so I didn't shower but I probably should've. But I asked Taylor she said I was fine so I just put on perfume.

The only problem was that when I got to class I was still wearing Joey's hoodie. Another problem was Joey had a black eye?! He might be hungover too. His hair is messy, he's in a black t-shirt plaid pajama pants, and crocs right now.

"Joey oh my gosh what the hell happened?!"
"Jacob snuck up on me while I was holding a beer. The little shit made me spill it. A perfectly good beer and he just wasted it."
He's hungover, has a black eye, and he's still making jokes. What is wrong with this kid?
"I don't think that's the biggest problem here."
He finally looks over at me and grins.
"What?" I raise my eyebrow.
"You're wearing my hoodie Ivy. I thought you hated football."
"It was the only clean hoodie I had."

"Uh huh.. sure. I think you just like my hoodie."
"It's not even that comfy.." I murmur.
"I guess you can keep it for another day."
"You know I would give it back if I had something on under it. Ok so like hush."
"Hm that's something to picture there."
"Oh my gosh you're literally a pervert Joey."
"You brought it up not me." He throws his hands up.

The rest of the class Joey just has this stupid smile to him. He won't drop it. How does someone go through so much and still feel like that?

"Are you gonna come to my game Ivy?"
"Hm?"
"The game today. It's this evening you should come."
"Oh yah I forgot you play football."
"Sure you did. Hey your brother will be there too. You can root for both of us."
"Who's your opponent?"
"UCF why?"
"Where can I get a UCF jersey?"
"A dumpster fire."

I still don't how he's gonna play football hungover but good for him. I'm not sure what position he plays but I know Sam is the starting RB. I guess I could go but that would be such a long time to spend in a loud stadium.

Well I told Taylor about it and now here I am at a football game. Also I didn't know this but Joey is literally the starting Quarterback that's like the biggest position to play. He seemed like the type of guy to brag about it to, but apparently not. He spotted me in the crowd and did his stupid grin and wave at me.

The game was pretty good I guess and Joey won so that's great. It was just really loud. I met Sam and Joey outside the stadium later in the team's gear.
Both of them were grinning walking around and taking photos.

"Oh wow it's my number one fan right here." Joey says throwing his arm over my shoulder.
"I'm so sad UCF lost I was so rooting for them."
"What the heck Ivy?!" Sam yells.

The day was kind of fun actually still will never be a Joey B fan.
