After Chloe's serious conversation, we both went back to the table with Derek and Carter. Although our conversation lasted for quite a while, our food wasn't ready yet.
"What took you two so long?" Derek asked us.
"A woman was crying in the bathroom so we followed girl code and helped her," I answered as Chloe and I sat down.
Chloe nodded. She understood I was lying to make up an excuse. "I feel so bad for her. Who breaks up with their significant other before a date?"
Derek let out a laugh. "Damn she must be pretty terrible if he went that far."
The waiter came to our table and filled our glasses with wine. He informed us our meals would be served in a few more minutes.
"Today calls for a celebration," Derek exclaimed. "We are going to celebrate the beginning of an era!"
"And here I was thinking that you missed your old pal," Carter joked.
Derek rolled his eyes, "If that helps you sleep at night." Carter touched his chest as if it hurt.
"Derek my love," he joked. "You have hurted my feelings."
"Hurted is not a word Carter."
"Damn it, no wonder why I failed English class."
Chloe and I laughed but her smile quickly disappeared as she saw Derek take a sip of the wine. Her eyes met mine with a concerned look on her face.
(...)
Once we were at the stalls, I looked at the mirror to fix my hair. Chloe closed the door and kept bending down to check if anyone was in the room.
"What are you doing?" I asked. What Chloe was doing was suspicious which meant I have to keep my guard up.
Once she confirmed no one was in the room, she made her way towards me with a serious expression, something I wasn't used to seeing.
"I wanted to talk to you about something but Derek interrupted us this morning."
I raised both of my brows. "What is it about?"
She gulped before answering.
"It's about Derek."
I tried to read her expression but all I got was nervousness.
"What exactly about him?" I asked.
She looked back at the door to make sure no had come in. "Derek has a drinking issue."
"I'm aware of that. He's been-"
"No that's not what I mean!" She exclaimed. "When he drinks he turns into a pervert! He's capable of raping you!"
I narrowed my eyes. "How would you know?" I asked. As soon as I saw her watery eyes, I widen mine. "Chloe did he..." I trailed off.
"About to, but he passed out." She answered. I stood there in disbelief for a few seconds. Chloe had no reason to lie so she was being sincere.
"Chloe, why haven't you reported him or told Carter about it?" I asked.
"Are you kidding me? Derek is his best friend, he won't believe me and even if he did it would hurt him."
"Chloe-"
"R/N, I just need you to be careful." She told me as she held my hand.
"He won't do anything to me, Chloe. I know how to defend myself."
