Starr Academy: College Life- Chapter Seventeen

Seventeen

I groaned as I rolled to my side. My teeth gritted together as I sucked in a lungful of air. My stomach hurt as well as my head pounding uneasily. I felt so very sick.

Pulling up the covers, I froze. I would never go to bed like this. Not in a million years. My whole body was naked and these didn't feel like the soft sheets Zander's family would ever buy for me. They scratched at my bare flesh.

Opening my eyes, more panic set in my veins. This wasn't my room at all nor did I know where I was. Obviously I had stayed the night over someone's house and now have a massive hangover headache. I couldn't stay to see whose bed I had slept in completely nude.

Getting out of the bed wasn't the easiest thing in the world. I ended up not sliding out of the bed elegantly as I had planned to do. Instead, I more like tumbled out of the bed and hissed through my teeth. The insides of my thighs burned and my legs felt weak. An ache between my legs heightened the awareness of what could have happened last night, but I knew there was a way to be certain.

My hand trembled as I pulled the bedding away and quickly covered my mouth. The bottom of my eyes burning as I saw the blood spots on the fitted sheets. I had lost my virginity and didn't remember it. Not a single moment of it.

I sank the rest of the way to the floor and sobbed as I pulled my costume from last night back on. My head protesting at my emotions over flowing, but I could help it. My first time gone. I'd never have that experience back.

Leaving, I didn't see anyone about and for that I was more than thankful. I was leaving as a mess and in shame. How could I have been so foolish. The first time I drank so much and now look at me.

Not willing to face the guys, especially my big brother after I told him in the beginning of the year that I wasn't ready for sex just yet. That it would be a long time before I gave over that part of myself until I knew I loved the guy. It didn't feel right losing it this way.

Slipping through the back gate, I had to lean against the weeping willow and close my eyes. My head was killing me so bad I was having a hard time keeping my balance. All I could manage to think of was crawling into a dark place and falling asleep.

Pushing off the tree, I swayed a little in pain as I tried to reach the back door of the house. Once inside, I quickly went down the stairs and into the theatre room. It was the only place I knew I could go and just curl into a ball hiding from the world.

I went to the back of the room and pulled one of the blankets that were down here over me and curled up easily on the middle love seat. The quiet of the room eased my pounding head and I slowly fell to sleep. For now I was just going to try to get passed the pain.

~~Ian's Point Of View~~

Today couldn't be any better if I could plan it. My heart soared as I whistled delightfully carrying the tray up the stairs. The tea covered so it didn't slosh out. Hope needed every bit of that tea to ease any lingering affects her drinking left her. I've already had a cup myself as I made our breakfast.

I easily opened the door still holding the tray. Though I was surprised that it was slightly ajar. I remember having pulled the door fully closed so no one saw the bare woman laying stretched out across the bed. No one should dare to see her like that even if I covered her up with the sheet.

My lower self stiffened a little remembering seeing just how beautiful she was and the trail of design that cascaded down her back all the way to her coccyx, or commonly known as the tailbone. I had spent a good twenty minutes letting my fingers trace the design all the way down and seeing it change color. To a deep royal purple with a bright canary yellow light surrounding it. So magical and perfect for her.
