Deception

I stand in the middle of the crowded dance floor trying to figure out what the fuck just happened. I dismiss the man that had just confused the living hell out of me, and continue to sway my hips.

I begin to look for my new roommate. I think I see her brown hair running out the door. I furrow my brow in confusion as to why she is leaving without me.

I stumble towards the door, and am welcomed by the chilly night air. I squint my eyes trying to see in the darkness. I think I'm in the alley next to the bar?

My imagination must've gotten the best of me, Payton is nowhere in sight.

As I turn on my heel to go back into the club a large hand grabs my wrists and spins me around. I bump into his hard chest, and look up to see oddly familiar jade eyes.

How do I know him?

"What is a pretty girl like you doing out here..alone?"

I begin to stutter a response, but I am silenced when he roughly crashes his lips onto my own.

I begin to kiss him back until my brain catches up with my actions. Once the thought crosses my mind I immediately push on his hard chest. The man stumbles back, confusion laced onto his features.

He furrows his brow, but quickly regains composure and leans his head in again. I push on his chest with more force this time, and he stumbles back once again.

"What the hell are you doing?" I say harshly, "I don't even know you,"

"I told you. No one teases me and gets away with it," his voice is low and seductive. The curly haired man steps closer, causing his hot breath to reach my ear. Our bodies are now pressed together with my back against the cold bricks of the alley.

That's when it hits me; he's the guy from the dance floor.

As if a dream, he's gone in the blink of an eye.

I swivel my head around the alley, and am about to call out his name, but then I realize I don't even know his name.

I quickly stumble back into the smelly bar. Immediately scanning the area, within seconds I see the familiar slim frame of Payton grinding on a blonde guy.

I yank on Payton's wrist pulling her away from the blondie.

"We need to go," I firmly state.

"Why?" She whines like a child.

"C'mon," I say while rolling my eyes and pulling her towards the exit. She immediately listens and skips behind me. "How many drinks did you have?" I question her as she can barely hold her own weight.

"Just a few," she giggles leaving a lazy smirk on her lips. I sigh as I pull her onto the sidewalk waving my hand in the air to get a taxi. I immediately am welcomed by a cab and scramble Payton and I into the car. I tell the man our address and he speeds off onto the street.

Good thing I know how to handle drunks...

We enter campus grounds, and I pay the the man a ten. Payton drapes her arm over my shoulders, and I'm immediately welcomed with the joy of holding half of her body weight.

As we limp into the dorm a lot of people give us queer looks. I would too if I were them, I mean we are two freshman who are drunk on their first night here. I bet they don't see that often.

I kick open the door and immediately kick my heels off.

"Remind me to never wear your shoes again," I whine at the soreness of my feet. A drunken giggle escapes Payton's dark red lips before she falls onto her bed.

"So where'd you disappear to before we left the bar?" Payton asks me as she begins to strip her clothes down leaving her in only her undergarments. I look away and head to the closest to change myself.

"Oh I thought I saw you so I rushed out there," I chuckle at my own expense.

"Well you were out there for quite a long time..."

"Oh... um I bumped into some guy..."

"Ooooh hotness scale?" she suggests, a smirk etched into her lips. I chuckle as I pull my shirt over my head.

"Well I couldn't really see him...it was dark." I try to explain but am quickly cut off.

"Well explain his features!" She squeals seemingly sober.

"Well he has tattoos all over his arms, curly hair, and green eyes," I bluntly say. Payton's eyes immediately widen and her happy expression is taken over with seriousness.

"Harry Styles," she whispers more to herself than me.

"Okay," I say furrowing my brow.

"Stay away from him Cassie," Payton warns me. I chuckle and slightly shake my head.

"Okay," I sarcastically remark.

"I'm being serious. Stay away from him, he's a player, and messes with girl's heads. He's like the school 'bad boy'" she uses finger quotations around bad boy, and looks me dead in the eye.

"Okay, okay I will," I say as I raise my hands to show innocence.

"Promise?" She says in a childish tone as she puts her pinky into the air.

"Promise," I confirm as I lock my pinky with Payton's.

As soon as we unlock our fingers Payton sprints to the bathroom, gagging along the way.
