"Rose control it. You are the one in control." Adrian keeps on reminding me while trying to calm me down. I wanted to stop thinking and for all my stress to go away. Once Adrian pleased his hand on my cheek all my pain went away because I wasn't in my body. Once I open my eyes I was staring straight at me just like last time. "Rose come back you can't stay in my head," he pulled away, however, I was still present inside his mind. He would shake me but I was too relaxed in his mind that I didn't want to leave.
"You are not me. You are Rose Hathaway control your emotions and come back to your body!" He said and I finally detached from his subconscious. My breath was unsteady and all came back like a punch to the face. "Rose. You are Ok? you controlled it." He didn't make direct physical contact but I could feel something stronger. Compulsion. "Control." He used a stronger portion of compulsion and it took me a few seconds to get past the magic.
"I wish I could but the whispering, and... and the feeling of not being able to help yourself." I started scratching again. "Get me tequila," I said and he didn't think of it twice. I need alcohol in my system to make the magic's power vanish. Adrian went to look for a bottle in the small bar that was in one of the corners of my room. He grabbed the bottle and 2 shot glasses. Adrian started filling up on of the glasses and I didn't hesitate in pouring it down my throat. My chest hurt but the physical pain took over the mental pain. He handed me the next glasses and I did the same as the first one. I stopped scratching but the whispers were still in the back of my head.
"Shit that hurts," I coughed out. "Give me now a whiskey," I said and Adrian was on it. After 3 tequilas later and 2 whiskeys and I was without problems except for well being extremely dizzy. "Rose go to sleep," our eyes locked and I let the composition take control of me. And the world went dark.
The next morning it was a nightmare. I was super nauseous and the first thing I did was get up and take 3 steps before falling down. "Dammit," I said the sun was already up and a smell intoxicated me. It was sweet and it made my nausea become stronger. I got back on my feet by holding on to whatever I could as I made my way towards the restroom.

"Rose?" someone came in with a strong sweet perfume. "Lissa please don't come any closer," I said while coming to my knees in front of the toilet. I was about to tell her to stay way but vomit came first. "Rose. Do you need help?" Lissa opens the restroom door and the sent of the perfume grew stronger. "Get Sydney and please stay way." The vomit kept on coming and Lissa went to get Sydney.
"Rose I am here." Sydney came next to me and hold my hair out of the way. "Sydney tells Lissa to stay at the door if anyone comes." Sydney went to tell Lissa and came back. A few minutes later the vomit stopped but the nausea was still there.
"Here," Sydney handed me cotton with alcohol and nausea slowly started to vanish. "Adrian told me that he took some drinks with you. I also read the results," Sydney was rubbing my back. Sydney now knew a little bit more about what was happening and Lissa had to stay out of it. I didn't want Lissa to worry about me but only her happiness.
