Jace's POV

Night before

I was making myself a drink in the kitchen when I dropped the top to the bottle of vodka. I got on the floor to pick it up and was about to stand up when I heard a familiar voice.

"You got the X?" It was Riley's ex Tyler.

"I told you I would didn't I." I also recognized that voice it was Britney Argos.

"yeah but that doesn't mean I automatically believe you. Anyways you know what drink is Riley's right?" Tyler asked. 

"Yeah a strawberry Margarita which if you ask  in my opinion is the girliest drink in history." Britney said.

"I really don't care just take her drink and put the x in it." Tyler ordered.

"Alright alright don't get your boxers in a twist." Britney said. 

"Just hurry up. Ill meet you in the car." Tyler said and left.

"Asshole." Britney muttered and I heard the click of her high heels as she left. Once I knew the coast was clear I jumped up and ran to catch up to Britney. If I could stop her then Riley would be safe. I spotted Britney a few yards ahead of me heading for the makeshift bar in my house and I could see Riley with her back turned to the bar watching everyone dance. Britney was already at the bar quickly putting the X in Riley's drink mixing it up and leaving. Shit!!! I pushed people outta my way trying to reach Riley before she grabbed her drink. I was only a few feet away when Riley grabbed her drink and threw it back. Shit shit shit!!!!!!!!! I cursed mentally. By the time I reached the bar Riley had disappeared into the mob of people on the dance floor. 

"Are you fucking serious?!" I asked myself. I just got done pushing past tons of bodies to reach the bar and now that I'm at the bar I gotta push through more people! No fuck it. I'll just keep an eye on her and when the X starts to take effect I'll grab her and take her somewhere safe.

30 minutes later

"Come on Riley  It's time to go upstairs.." I said dragging Riley up the stairs.

"Yessss were gonnna need privaaaaaccyyyy....." Riley slurred running her hands up and down my arm.  I threw her over my shoulder when we got to the stairs and she started laughing hysterically.  Then all of a sudden I felt a hand squeeze my ass.

"What the hell!?"  I blurted out. Riley started laughing even harder.

"Your ass kindaaaa looookssss likeee Louiss Tomlinson's ass." Riley slurred. I ignored her and made my way to my room. I threw her from over my shoulder onto my bed. 

"OOF."  she said laughing hysterically then all of sudden her face changed.

"I thinkk i'm gonnnaaa-" I grabbed my trashcan next to me night side table and put it under her chin just as she started to puke. A few minutes later she stopped puking.

"How are you feeling right now?" I asked.

"How do you think I feel? I feel like absolute shit." Riley said rolling over and groaning.

"Let me rephrase that question do you still think were up here to have sex?" I asked bluntly.

"what the hell!" She exclaimed.

"Your crazy!!!" She blurted. I let out a breath of relief.

"Thanks." I said smiling. She looked at me weirdly. I got up off the bed and walked over to my mini fridge. I grabbed a bottle of water then went to my bathroom and grabbed some aspirin. I handed Riley the Aspirin and the bottle of water.

"after you take this I want you to lie down and rest." I instructed. She took the 2 aspirin from me and put them in her mouth then took a swig of water. I took the water from her and placed it on the night stand next to her. Riley laid down and I walked over to my ottoman and grabbed a fuzzy blanket from it and threw it over her. I walked to the door and turned off the light. I was about to shut the door when Riley asked another question.

"Why are you being nice to me when I've been nothing but mean to you?"

"because I figured if you hate me for no reason I might as well give you one reason not to hate me." I answered and shut the door quietly. 

Riley's POV

Present

"So let me get this straight Tyler and Britney teamed up to drug me you overheard it and you tried to stop Britney but didn't reach her in time and then you helped me while I was being a perv to you?" I listed.

"Yep." Jace said popping the 'p'

"Did I seriously grab your ass or did you just make the bit up?" I asked begging for it to be made up. I knew it was true when Jace smirked at me.

"No that was in fact true." he said. I felt me cheeks heat up in embarrassment. 

"Though now that I think about  it I wish I had returned the favor." Jace said seriously. My embarrassment quickly disappeared and was replaced with shock. 

"You perv!" I said and slapped him on the arm harshly.

"Ouch that hurt." Jace said sarcastically. I glared at him.

"You know what will hurt?" I asked.

"Your balls when I knee them." I answered. He rolled his eyes.

"Please after the cayne pepper being kneed in the balls will seem like nothing." Jace said. I grinned at the memory.

"Speaking of cayne pepper when do you and your 2 delinquents plan to strike back?" I asked.

"That's for us to know and you to find out Kitten."
