The Rescue

Answers

I stare at him with wide-eyes. I can faintly see the color of his eyes. Soft brown.

"Well?"

I can tell he's considering all his options. He finally decides.

"You're in my basement."

Plain. Just like that. I look at him as if I just found out gossip about someone I dislike.

"Why am I here?" I ask this with definition in my voice.

I can feel him smiling. "You really want to know don't you?" I reply with a simple yes.

"I drugged you and then dragged you here..." I look at him, speechless. His laugh is all it takes to break my trance.

Sarcasm.

"No, but really you and Brandon were at a party last night and you were offered a drink. It was late and you were tired, Brandon was just about to take you home but you took the drink and drank. The boys put another in your hands. You said no but they tipped it before the words escaped your mouth." I didn't know what to believe. "This happened a couple of times until Brandon called me and I came and got you. He called your mom and told her you were staying with a friend."

I sat their my mouth agape. I stood to my feet walked over to him. He also rose to his feet. He was in shock I hugged him tightly and he hugged me back.

Tears now streaming down my cheeks.
