I had kissed him. His lips were soft and plump. They tasted of voda and cherries. I pulled away quickly, my cheeks blushing. I felt everyones eyes on me, including Zach's. I felt so small. I wanted to hide. I wanted to get up, leave, go cry and watch movies in my room alone. The card laid between our knees, I picked it up and handed it to him, he took it from my hands without a word and handed it to the person who I believe was Tom.

I excused myself from the circle and looked for the backdoor. I needed fresh air. The air became too thick in that living room. The glass doors came into my view as I pushed them open. My lungs were filled with the fresh November air as I walked further into the backyard. Everywhere people were scattered with cigarettes and beer bottles gripped in their hands. I felt sick. I dont know anyone, I just want to leave.

"Hey are you alright?" a small voice said.

I looked up and saw Madison looking at me with sypathetic eyes. My hands were on my knees and I was hunched over. I felt sick to my stomach.

"Im fine." I snapped.

She took a step back, surprised by my attitude.

"Im sorry, Im just embarassed and I feel sick."

"Its okay," she chuckled. "Dont even worry about it, come back inside they were asking about you and they want to know if youre okay."

I shook my head. Thats the last thing I want to do is go back into that hell hole.

"Is there a place that I can lay down, that isnt surrounded by people?" I asked quietly.

"Yeah of course! Theres plenty of rooms upstairs, I can take you to one if you want." she chirped.

I nodded and stood up, wiping off my shirt and following behind her. We walked past the crowd that was now staring at me, Gianna with sympathetic eyes. I kept my head down and followed up the stairs.

"Here we are!" She smiled slightly pushing open the door in the middle of the hallway. "Make yourself comfortable."

Thanking her quietly I shut the door. this room was bigger than most dorms I've seen. It had a wooden book case in the middle of the wall, a desk, and a queen size bed in the middle of the room. Stacks of CD's, tapes, and books scattered across the dressers and desk.

I made my way over to the bed and laid down. My head continued pounding, and my eyes got heavier as I drifted off into sleep.

Zach's P.O.V.

She was so embarrassed. I could've prevented that. Her cheeks got the most adorable shade of pink, and her blue eyes became wide. Gianna smiled a smug smile at me, while Madison and Kristina gave her death glares.

I felt even worse as she got up to get some air. Her petite body pushed through the heavy drunken jocks as she disappeared into the backyard.

"Nice going dickhead." Dominic chuckled slapping the back of my neck.

"Lay off would you?"

"Oh Zachary, when will you learn?" Madison snickered and made herself comfortable on my lap.

I rolled my eyes at her. She was something else. Always forcing herself onto me, I'm not about that. Even though I did just that to a girl I barley knew.

"You could've kissed me instead." she whispered in my ear."

"Madison would you stop? Get off me and leave me alone. You just where 'helping' her and now you're going to bad mouth her. Just save it." I snapped at her.

Her hazel eyes opened wide as she slid back to her seat next to Kristina. Everyone was now looking at me.

Nice going Zach, you screwed up again.

My conscious reminded me.

"Where did you take her anyway?" I asked looking at the infuriating girl.

"I don't know?" she paused. "Maybe your room? I'm not sure." she said with a devilish smirk.

My feet were moving before my mind could catch up, I was stomping up the stairs to my room. Why is she in my room anyway? She could've been in anyone else's room. What if she touched my things and ruined something?

"Get ou-"

I was cut short by the sight I saw. Sky was curled up in a ball with a blanket over her sleeping. Her brown hair fanned out across my pillows as her chest rose and fell. Her milky, pale skin had a layer of goosebumps on it from the chilly atmosphere.

I walked around the bed, pulling out the chair from the desk and sat along side the bed. My eyes began getting heavier and heavier as I watched the girl sleep.

I could lay down on my bed without waking her. But that would be risky. However it is my bed and she is the one intruding.

Standing up from the wooden chair I stepped around the bed shifting her slightly before I laid myself down.

Her body shifted closer to mine as I shit the light off. My arm wrapped around her torso as her head rested in my chest.

I just pray that she doesn't wake up.
