Broken

end of the night

I took long gulps of whatever I was pouring down my throat. It honestly tasted like acid but I totally ignored the chemical feeling and enjoyed myself in the haze that I now knew I was in. I made my way to another truck in the school parking lot and asked for a few more drinks. This would be my 8th.

"One more drink please!", I slammed my plastic cup on the carpet that was layed in the trunk of the truck filled with all kinds of drinks. My cup was filled and I drank more. The bitter taste of the beer was starting to feel tangible against my tongue. I felt hand on my back, but the hands reached behind me from the front. I pulled the cup away from my mouth and swallowed the mouthful of beer I had in order to speak.

"Wow! Evan! You're behind this whole mess with the alcohol? I wouldn't have thought of it. Well maybe I would but shush.", I put my finger to his lips and giggled. I was definitely drunk out of my mind. My tolerance was crappy.

Evan let out a menacing laugh, "Whatever you say your royal highness. What else can you reign me with?", His hands found their way lower from my upper back. This talk quickly transformed from shoulders to waist and his hands were literally on my butt. He made a comfortable place for them there and was taking advantage of my vulnerability. I knew this was a bad idea from the start.

I looked over my shoulder and down at his hands and raised my eyebrows, "Wow.. you're naughty. I don't, I will get a warrant for touching my ass. DAMION will question you because he is my lawyer!"

"Yeah. We will see about that gorgeous.", before giving me my time to speak his lips were pressed against mine in a intimidating and desirable way. I leaned back but he leaned forward and pushed me closer to him. His lips kissed me and I never kissed him back. Even if I wanted to I would have never gotten the chance because he is going so fast. His tongue tried to find it's way into my mouth but I had enough awareness of what was going on to scream for help as he tugged at my straps.

"Evan stop! STOP! Damon!!", I cried the first word that came to mind and freed myself from Evans grasp.

"Come on babe, we are just having a little fun. Chill.", Evan laughed it off like it's nothing.

I staggered along the grass and didn't know which direction I had come from and found Damon outside with a couple of guys from our school and I do my best to run to him and fall into his arms.

"Damon...."

"Wow Elena. Where the hell have you been?"

"I've been... been looking everywhere for you..",  the three boys looked at us weirdly but I didn't care, I wanted to leave the party. I wanted to get out of here. Somehow Damon read the language I spoke with my eyes and dismissed us both.

"Sorry guys, looks like me and my queen are gonna have to make a run for it.", with that I felt the ground beneath my feet get lifted from beneath me because I no longer stood on it. I felt Damon's chest and snuggled my head close to it and lay my hand next to where his heart should be. I lay in his arms as he carried me to safety.

Damon set me down in the passenger seat of his car and I started to make myself comfortable as he made his way into the driver's seat. From the vibe he was giving off I knew he was mad.

"Baby don't be mad at me...", I pouted my lip.

"I am mad.., he rolled his eyes as if that was the stupidest thing I could ever ask him to do, what were you thinking? Wandering out of the school, drinking. Elena you aren't a drinker."
