One Heart (One Kiss Book 2)

04. Party

Drew

I do not feel like going to a party tonight. Not without Haley. I started missing her again the second she left. She does not come every weekend because the drive takes too long. Maybe I should visit her next weekend. Yes, I should.

"You ready to go?" Jason asks when I open the door.

No, I think to myself. But I know it would be useless to tell him that because he would drag me anyway.

"Yeah, let's get this over with," I say in a monotone voice.

"Oh come on. Where's the energy?" He pulls me out and shuts the door.

---

The party is already in full swing when we arrive. Girls dancing, boys and girls drinking and smoking, couples kissing and I am pretty sure some are hooking up in the bedrooms upstairs.

Jason drags me to the beer pong game at the back of the frat house and we play against two other guys. We win. Then we play against another two guys but this time we lose. We move on to the strong alcohol. I tell myself that I will stop drinking the instant I feel light-headed.

One drink leads to another and another and another.

I stop drinking the moment I feel light-headed but it is too late. My vision is blurry. I see a blonde approaching me. She takes my hand and leads me upstairs. I feel like I am floating.

This is not just alcohol. Someone must have drugged me. Where is Jason whenI need him?

"Hay- Hayley," I mumble.

"Sure, you can call me Haley," the blonde says as she closes the bedroom door.

No! Get me out of here! I scream in my head.

The girl pushes me onto the back and my vision gets even more fuzzy. I close my eyes hoping it would restore my vision. When I open my eyes again, nothing has changed.

Her filthy hands unbuttons my pants and pulls down my boxers with my pants.

I should not have drank. I am such an idiot. I got myself into this mess.

I close my eyes and everything goes dark.

---

I wake up with all my clothes on, in a bed. Not my bed. Where am I?

"Dude, you're awake!" Jason's voice pierces my brain.

There is too much light in the room. I groan. "Switch off the light." I cover my eyes. "Where am I?"

"My room. You got stoned last night and I had to carry you to my car. My room was closer than your so I dumped your ass in my bed."

I uncover my eyes reluctantly. "Where did you sleep then?"

"My room mate did not sleep here so I slept in his bed. He tends to sleep at his girlfriend's dorm."

"That's not allowed, right?"

Jason shrugs. "He sneaks in."

I am still confused about last night. I only remember some blonde taking me to a bed. "What happened to me last night?"

"I found you in one of the dorms with no pants and no boxers on."

I need to know what happened. "Do you know the girl who was with me?"

"The blonde one I saw you with?"

I think so. "Yeah." I sit up feeling nauseated.

"I think her name is Jessica Porter. She asked me out at one of the parties last week or the week before that. She has a reputation of drugging guys. I think it's her fetish."

"What?" What has she done to me? "And no one reported her?"

"No because she threatens the guys that she has a video and will show it to their girlfriends."

This cannot be. Surely someone would do something about it. Then ot hits me. What would Haley think of me? Now I understand her blackmail.

"Why didn't you save from her if you saw me with her?" Anger takes over now.

"I didn't know you were drugged."

"I have to go." I do not know where I am going but I have to leave before I do something I'll regret. I want to punch him and beat him to a fucking pulp. How could he do this to me? He should have taken care of me. We were supposed to be friends.

I stand up and leave, slamming the door behind me.

I look at the time on my phone. Shit! I already missed my first class of the day.
