Perfect Storm [Completed]

Mistakes and Broken Promises

One Week Later

Sam's POV

The roommates are throwing another party tonight. I feel a little worried about it. Colby and I are doing well but I just hope he doesn't drink too much tonight. I know it's his life but I just don't like who he is when he drinks.

"Sam? You alright?" Colby asks, interrupting my thoughts.

"I'm just thinking about tonight, the party," I say.

"I promise you, I won't drink too much tonight," he says.

"Okay," I say.

The Party

Sam is walking around the party, talking to people. A random girl comes up to him.

"Hey, cutie. Wanna dance?" she says.

"I'm good," he says.

"Come on cutie, dance with me," she says.

Before he can stop her, she kisses him. Colby just happened to see it and stormed away.

Sam's POV

Some random girl just came up and started asking me to dance. I refused and she kissed me. I shove her away.

"What's your problem?"

"My problem?! I told you I wasn't interested, so back off!" I say.

I walk away from her to find Colby. But he's nowhere to be found so I talk to some of my other friends. About an hour later, Colby finds me.

"Hey, Sammmy! You look good!"

"Colby, are you drunk?"

"Yeah and it feels good Sammmy!"

"I thought you said you weren't going to drink too much?" I ask.

"Ahh well, too late for that! Come on let's have some fun!" he says.

"I'm good Colby," I say.

"I'll have fun with you baby!" It's the girl who kissed me.

"Okay!" he says and heads off with her.

I run outside, shocked. I can't believe this. He's probably sleeping with her by now. "

"Sam?"

I turn around to see Kat standing there.

"Hi..."

"Corey filled me in about Colby," she says, sitting down next to me.

"I just, he promised me he wouldn't drink too much tonight and now he's off with some girl," I say.

"I think I know what this is really about," she says.

"Yeah, I think I do too," I say. I pause for a second, "I think I love him.

"What do you want to do?"

"I don't know. I'm just tired of broken promises."

Colby's POV

Sam was walking around the party talking to people. I decided to go and find him. I find him wrapped around a girl, kissing her. Anger floods through me and I storm away to get a drink. I get one and another. Before I know it, I'm completely drunk and it feels great. I find Sam by the back door.

"Hey, Sammmy! You look good!"

"Colby, are you drunk?"

"Yeah and it feels good Sammmy!"

"I thought you said you weren't going to drink too much?" he asks.

"Ahh well, too late for that! Come on let's have some fun!" I say.

"I'm good Colby," he says.

A random girl comes up to me, "I'll have fun with you baby!"

Ahh, what can it hurt?

"Okay!" I say and head off with her. We dance for a while then head upstairs. We get to the door of my room. I hesitate.

"What's wrong baby?"

"I'm sorry, I can't do this. It wouldn't be fair to you," I say.

"Whatever," she says, heading back downstairs.

I hear someone coming upstairs behind me so I turn around. It's Sam.

"Hey, Sammy."

He ignores me.

"Sam?"

"Leave me alone Colby."

He pushes past me to his room and slams the door behind him. I flinch and head back downstairs.

What feels like a short while later, someone drags me upstairs.

"Hey, what's the big deal?"

"Colby, chill, it's me, Corey."

"Oh, sorry Corey. What's up?"

"I think you've had enough tonight," he says.

"Oh come on man, I'm fine. I can drink more and I want to!"

"Corey's right, Colby," Elton says. "Besides I put the alcohol away and everyone went home."

"Oh, come on man!"

"Go to bed, Colby."

"Fine!" I turn away and walk to my room, slamming the down behind me. I hear Sam's door open and feel bad for probably waking him.

Sam's POV

I hear a door slam and jolt awake. I head out to the hallway to see Corey and Elton standing there.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"Elton put the alcohol away and everyone left. Colby wasn't happy about it," Corey says.

"Good idea. How bad was he?"

"Bad, worse than usual," Elton says.

"That's not good," I say.

"I know. Something must have happened," Elton says.

"Well, I'm going to go back to bed," I say.

"Night," they say.

"Night," I say back.
