Thirsty Temptations

Chapter 2- Worth losing friendship?

She stood there waiting for his answer, and got frustrated when he wouldn't answer her question "Don't give me this shit that you're only a vision of my imagination." she said firmly with her hands on her hips.

"I need to get you out of here." he says, reaching for her arm.

"I'm not going anywhere until you tell me who you are." she demanded, as she stepped back, crossing her arms and giving him an evil glare "That was you in my home earlier and at the bar, wasn't it?"

"We don't have time to talk, they're coming for you." he says, reaching for her. He grabbed her hand and when she wouldn't move, he got into her face and stared into her eyes, causing her to be put into a trance. He picked her up, placed her over his shoulders and quickly got out of there, bringing her back to her friends.

As he carried her over to her friends, Alyssa ran over to him when she saw that it was Layla in his arms "Is she alright?"

"I found her in the woods." he says, laying her down onto the ground. The group crowded around in a circle and looked down at Layla as Trevor pushed his way through the crowd and over to her. He kneeled onto the ground and looked at the man who carried her back.

"What did you do to her?" Trevor yelled, as he lifted her. Her head hung back and felt lifeless as he held her up, trying to wake her.

"I didn't do anything, I heard screaming, ran toward the sound and found her like this." he looked at Trevor and stared right through him.

Alyssa placed her hand on Trevor's shoulder and looked down "I don't know what happened, she was sitting in the chair, quiet, then suddenly she stood up screaming and took off running. It was weird."

Trevor looked at the man as he laid Layla back down "You were the one who danced with her at the bar, how did you know to come here?" he asked, thinking he was the reason why she was the way she was.

"Small town, heard there was a party and figured I would check it out. Good thing I came when I did, otherwise she would still be in the woods, and you wouldn't be here questioning me like you are." he said harshly.

Layla slowly opened her eyes, and looked around at everyone. Seeing Trevor hovering over her, she felt confused and pushed herself up "What the hell happened?"

"You tell us." Trevor said, sounding worried while rubbing her back.

She looked away from Trevor and noticed the man from the bar staring down at her. She scratched the back of her head and looked back at Trevor "Last thing I remember was you kissing me." she said quietly, trying to remember more. Trevor stood up and reached for her hand helping her up.

"Maybe you need to drink some water."

He walked her into the house and into the kitchen. She sat down at the table while Trevor grabbed her a glass of water. After getting a glass of water, he sat down at the table, handed her the water, and leaned back in his chair, looking at her with concern "That guy from the bar carried you over to us, are you sure he didn't do anything to you?"

She set her water down and shook her head "No..."

"Why were you in the woods?"

"Jesus, what's with the fifty questions? I told you... last thing I remember was you kissing me, next thing I know I'm waking up to a hundred people looking down at me."

Alyssa walked through the patio door as the man stood outside. She turned around and looked at him "You can come in." He stepped inside and walked with Alyssa over to the table. Trevor didn't like seeing him standing next to Layla, he stood up and pointed over to the man "You can leave now, I've got it handled from here and I'll be taking her home in a minute."
