Chapter 8

"Why not?", Adam says as he grabs my wrists harshly, pulling me to him.

"Because I don't. Now let go of my wrists", I say sternly pulling my wrists away from him.

"I thought you liked me?", he spats angrily.

"What?", I say in shock, how can he know? Only Kourtney and Brent know.

"Brent told me you were into me but apparently not since I'm not getting any from you tonight", he says.

I stare at him. How could Brent have betrayed our trust? Without thinking, I slap him across the face and walk away. 

"Bitch!", I hear him yell at me.

I walk away, farther and farther as I feel tears forming in my eyes. I can't believe Brent told him. Who else has he told? Has Kourtney said anything to anyone about it? Tears start to spill from my eyes as I leave the living room and walk somewhere, anywhere. I need somewhere quiet and empty where I can think clearly. I push a door open and even in my state of mind, I stop and realize that I have made my way into the area that Malik tricked me into going in the graduation party. Thankfully it's empty with no drunk people so I walk towards a table that has all the chairs on top of it. I slide against the wall next to the table and onto the ground as I let my tears fall down my face without stopping.

I don't know what hurts most; the fact that one of my best friends has betrayed my trust or the fact that the guy I liked only wanted sex from me. I let out a sigh, tears continuing to fall down my face as I sit on the ground by myself as the night goes on. 

----

My face feels sticky from my tears as I wipe the last of them. I sit up straighter and clear my throat.  I pull out my phone to check the time, it reads 12:21 AM. There's also messages from both my parents. 

Mom:
Hey sweetheart, is everything alright?
Are you staying over at Sophia's?
Blaise?
Is everything alright honey?
I was able to reach Sophia, she said your phone ran out of battery and didn't have a charger on hand but you are fine and are staying the night. Goodnight sweetheart xxx mom

Dad:
Sweetheart please answer us. Your mom has been trying to reach you for over an hour. Is everything alright? Where are you? Do you need us to pick you up? Please answer
Blaise are you okay?
Your mom talked with your friend Sophia, I'm glad you're okay. Text us when you get a charger, love you baby x Dad

I respond to both of them in a group chat that I'm fine. My phone indeed ran out of battery and was not able to find a charger but now that I was at Sophia's I had one and was able to respond at last. That I was sorry I wasn't able to contact them but I was fine and was going to bed now. They responded it was alright and not to worry about it and wished me a goodnight's sleep. 

I sigh. I should be at home, sleeping in my own bed. Not here wher-

The door slams open suddenly and a bottle of beer is thrown against the brick wall. I hide and move closer to the table, afraid that it's some random drunk guy. 

"Fuck you", he yells as he comes more into view, his back to me as the man moves his arms around with no balance.

I look over the table, trying to see if I know him. He turns around slowly, stumbling as he does so, clearly drunk as he continues to curse. Malik. I swallow hard. What is he doing out here alone? Without his oh so sexy Gigi all over him.
