Chapter 6

" Saw you today after so much time, felt just like it used to be. Talking for hours bout a different life, surrounding us in memories. "

We arrived at a large frat house, about 15 minutes away from campus. The car ride had been almost silent, but not awkward.

"We'll meet here at 2am." Sara said, sounding like a mother.

I nodded in agreement. As I opened the passenger door, music became almost deafening, even from across the street.

"Are you sure I look alright?" I asked her once more as I looked down at my outfit. I wore a black half-shirt with a low neckline, dark blue jeans, and black heels. 

"You look hot." She assured me. "A bit like a nun but a very hot nun."

"Shut up." I laughed with her. We walked towards the large house party hand in hand. As soon as the front door was opened a wave of sweat, beer, hormones and desperation invaded my nostrils.

Smells like a good night.

As I made my way deeper into the crowd, I lose track of my companion.

Great, now I'm alone.

"Would you like a drink, babe?" A frat boy rested his hand on him hip, yelling over the music. His breath reeked of alcohol.

"Sure." I answered, he handed me a red solo cup. "Thank you."

I walked deeper into the house, taking slow sips of my drink. My tastebuds danced as I downed half the cup's contents. After walking past a few ongoing party games, I stopped at a game of suck and blow.

"Would you like to join?" Someone asked from beneath me. "We need two more players."

Normally, I'd immediately turn down the offer. But normally I wouldn't have tasty alcoholic beverages.

"Sure." I replied, sitting between him and a blonde girl. I sat in a circle of 6 other people: 3 girls and 3 guys

"We need a male." The man called again.

"I'll join your damn game." A deep voice said.

Suddenly, a body sat itself between blondie and I. As I turned to see who it was, I was caught by surprise..

Elevator boy or Asshole according to Liam.

He was even more beautiful up close, his icy green eyes gleamed with mischief. I attempted to convince myself that I wasn't in the presence of a god, but a mere mortal.

He flashed a quick smirk, causing my eyes to linger on his lips for far too long.

"Everyone know how to play?" The young man asked no one in particular, he had taken up the role of Suck and Blow Coordinator.

"Alright, then." He eventually said, simultaneously waving a playing card in the air. It was a king of hearts, I'd be kissing a king and a God that night. Suck and Blow Coordinator put the card against his lips and pressed it against mine. Before turning towards elevator boy, I had to mentally prepare myself for our physical contact. I sucked the playing card against my lips to keep it from falling.
