How Everything Changed (Book 4)

Chapter 17

*Matt*

I was still trying to find Jeff when I saw Ethan with Morgan. Morgan looked wasted and I mentally slapped myself for not going to the bar with her. I saw Ethan plant kisses on her neck and suddenly go towards her shirt.

"Ethan! Give her back now!" I yelled walking towards him and swinging at him. He pushed a giggling Morgan to the floor and me and him went at it. In the end, I knocked his ass out and threw him in the elevator. Once I did that, I went over to Morgan to make sure she was okay. She took one look at me and started giggling.

"Hey, Mattie!" she said sitting herself up and looking at me with a big drunk look on her face. It looked kinda cute actually. "Where did Ethan go?"

"He...uh...went for a walk. He told me to take you back to my room."

"Mattie," she said standing up and swaying. "I'm not dumb. I know you hit him."

I smiled. Even when she was drunk, she was very observant. "Yea I did and youll thank me later. Come on!" I said picking her up by the waist. I was careful not to sway her as I walked back to my room, or else she could throw up down my back. And that would take forever to wash out.

I got her in my room and she fell asleep in minutes. When I went to go to the restaurant to get her some light food that wasn't going to upset her stomach, I ran into someone. When I did, I saw Jeff.

"How did you get away from Ethan?"

"I didn't" he said slowly getting up to his feet. "he let me go. I guess he just needed to talk to me about something." He then looked away, and I sensed something was wrong, but one thing you never do with Jeff is pressure him into something he doesn't want to talk about. He looked back at me and smiled. "What are you doing down here?"

"Morgan got wasted and she's sleeping it off in my room." I made sure to leave the part out about Ethan nearly raping her in the hallway. Didn't want him to get into a fight with Ethan right now.

"Okay," he said. "Imma go back to your room to see how she's doing." And before I could think to say anything, he took towards my room. I didn't know what was wrong with him, but I had a feeling I was going to find out sooner rather than later.
