I felt my eyes slowly flicker open as I heard  unfamiliar voices talking around me. I squinted, the light in the room was brighter than I expected as I opened my eyes. The only voice I seemed to recognize was Levy's. I raised my hand up to feel my throbbing head as I slowly sat up. What the hell happened to me?

"Oh, she's awake!" A deep male voice exclaimed.

I rubbed my eyes and looked around. It seemed I was laying on a bed in a hotel room, Levy sat on the bed, and four others were in the room as well. Right, I think these are the guys in the band we saw tonight? I don't remember a lot after the concert though...

"What happened...?" I asked quietly, sitting up. "I don't remember much..."

"Oh Lu! I'm so sorry I left you by yourself with him! I feel awful..." Levy said as she sat next to me, looking down at her lap.

"We think you were drugged." A guy with dark, raven hair said bluntly, crossing his arms.

Drugged...?!

"Natsu over here found you." He pointed to the guy next to him, he wore a black t-shirt with the sleeves rolled up, black ripped jeans with a chain dangling from his belt loops and a black bandana tied around his forehead, pushing his salmon bangs near his eyes. He had a lot of tattoos, and was tall and muscular.

He was silent for a few seconds before explaining what happened. "You and some guy managed to get to one of the backstage areas, and he was being...pretty disgusting. You didn't seem right, so I assumed you were drunk. Anyways, I kicked him out and then you collapsed. That's how you got here. We found this girl who was looking all over for you, and then we decided to take you back to our hotel until you woke up. You've been out for several hours." He explained as he sat on the hotel room desk.

Oh my god, I passed out? This is so embarrassing!

"Yeah, and we think you were drugged since the only drink you had was the one Bacchus gave you...there's no way a drink that size could get you that drunk." Levy chimed in.

"Oh...yeah I'm struggling to remember. Things start getting hazy after the concert. I just remember bits and pieces like him trying to kiss me and then you pulling him off of me." I pointed at the pink haired guy sitting across the room. "Thanks for saving me, by the way."

His eyes widened a bit with surprise and he looked away. "Yeah...don't mention it."

"Wow Natsu, I'm shocked you even got involved at all. It's not really like you to go and save the day." The raven haired bass guitarist said with a laugh.

"Shut the hell up, Gray. You're telling me you wouldn't have done the same thing?" He jumped down from the desk and leaned on it instead.

"Um...anyways I'm sorry for causing so much trouble..." I said quietly after they stopped bickering. "Levy and I can go."

"No, it's no trouble." The very tall lead singer with his long dark hair said. "We have a two-day break from tour right now, so y'all can sleep here. Also it's like...almost 4 a.m."

"Oh okay...I guess if it's not too much trouble." I said, still feeling bad.

"If you don't mind having to share the room with us. We'd usually just get another room but this hotel is fully booked tonight." He added on.

"I feel bad for intruding, are you sure?"

"Yes, we wouldn't want two girls driving around this late. It's fine. By the way, I didn't catch your name. Only the little shrimp's over here." He pointed at Levy as she frowned at the nickname.
