Jenny Archer brushed her bedridden hair off of her face as she turned onto her stomach, letting out a sigh in relief once she felt comfortable enough.

Her body ached all over as if she had been running a marathon and had only a few minutes before she started another one. She touched her neck softly, feeling the reddening mark on her neck. She couldn't for the life of her remember how exactly she had gotten it.

The events of the night before was still hazy and her head buzzed and starting to pound as she tried to remember it.

She remembered Dave's rowdy party, the one she had been dragged to. She would have rather stayed at home and go through twitter, talking to her online friends about who was the best looking member in 5SOS.

As if her night could get better, her only reprise from the party left as her twin left early with Santana, her best friend. Of course she hadn't put up that much of a fight.

Being around those two was the worst when Jesse started to lay it thick with the flirting. She loved her brother as much as you can love your sibling whilst hating them, but he was cringey most of the times. Santana thought so too, but then again, she was the one who was in love with her brother, not her.

She remembered talking to Darcy as she drank some soda. It didn't hit her til her third cup that it was spiked. But by then her mind was hazy and she was feeling euphoria flood through her system and it felt like she could take on the world.

That feeling faded after awhile and then she found herself in the toilet throwing up.

As she was throwing up into the toilet she felt someone pull her hair away from her face, letting some fresh air hit her and the queasiness left her.

She glanced up to smile gratefully at that person, remembering Daemon's less than pleased expression as it he would rather be somewhere else.

Daemon.

What had happened after that? Jenny wondered as she shot up from where she lay, noting how unfamiliar the room was.

She exhaled in relief when she looked down and noticed that fortunately her clothes were still on her. That was one thing she was worried about.

She was worried that someone would've taken advantage of her given her state the night before.

A groan came from beside her, stopping her short from continuing her thoughts.

She swallowed back her screams as she turned to face the person. The blood from her face drained when she saw who was there, lying beside her.

Daemon Matthews.

The player of the school and her best friend's best friend.

That was five days ago.

Five days since she discovered that she had slept next to her best friend's childhood friend. Five days since she'd woke up next to Port Liston's notorious player. And five days since she last saw Daemon Matthews.

If there was one thing she was grateful for it was that they didn't sleep together. Jenny Archer couldn't imagine losing her virginity before marriage. If that was one thing she kept close to her heart it was saving herself for her future husband, wherever he may be. To make herself feel even more fortunate, was that she hadn't lost her precious virginity to Daemon Matthews.
