You Saved Me Once Book 1

Chapter 46: 30I read your letter

When I figure out, I’m not hallucinating, I try to lose Hayes in the crowd.

Just when I think I’m over this entire situation, just when I’ve healed most of my wounds with him, here

comes Hayes stirring up the resurfaced secrets, regrets, and mistakes all over again. I don’t want to be

in the same room as him again, not again.

I walk the first floor wandering around, bumping into strangers, and having drunks yell at me. It was

better than going up to the second level and being mature about the situation. In the moment,

wandering was even better than checking to see if my brother was al-right. I should’ve done that, but

instead I’m regretting, crying, and down spiraling. I was down spiraling fast and had no one to help me

out this time. There’s one person that came to mind though, Jeff.

I go into an empty room on the first floor and text him.

I need you.

-Alex

I waited for what felt like hours before he texted back. I didn’t think he’d text back at all.

Where are you?

-Jeff

I text him the address before my phone dies. Now it’s just me back to wandering throughout the floors.

I end up at the drinking table on the second level. DJ guy was there too, stuffing his tongue down my

throat. His hands were all over me and at one point in my pants. He wasn’t fully intoxicated; I was on

the brinks of it though.

I was already on my 4th shot of vodka. My mouths’ aroma is coated in acidic alcohol and cool cigarette

ash from DJ guy, but I can’t stop.

I let DJ guy whose name I ended up learning was Ryan do a lot to me. He groped my breast, my ass

and he pinned me against a wall in front of everyone. Then he gave me a brownie, a funny brownie that

made me laugh.

I didn’t care because I didn’t feel a thing, and I didn’t want to. As long as we didn’t have sex, as long as

he didn’t enter me in any-way. As long as I stay in a large crowd, I have control of the situa-tion.

Did I feel bad? Do I feel bad, no. I’m too high to care about anything including Jeff. I’m just going off the

rhythm of my down-spiraling which was getting out of control.

Out of nowhere a heavy hand grips my arm, and my high is threatened, by Hayes. He pulls me in an

empty room and shuts the door behind him. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“What are you doing?!?” I cry.

I try to push him away from the door, but he won’t budge.

“So, your brother is having a breakdown, and this is what you do? Go around trying to sleep with this

fucking college boy?!?” He huffs.

“Why are you following me?” I mumble, but he keeps going.

I smell alcohol on his breath I’m sure he smells it on mine.

“Leave me the fuck alone Hayes. I’m having a fucking break-down now too, because of you! Just-just

get the fuck out of my way!” I push him again; but he doesn’t budge.

I scream in frustration.

“You weren’t supposed to be here!!! You-you weren’t even supposed to be here!!!” I yell.

“I kissed you, and you fucking leave Versa again! You leave me again!!!” I cry.

“Alex!” He calls me, but now I ignore him.

“Where’s Rochelle, I-I need Rochelle. I-I want to see Adam.” I cry.

“Okay!!!” He yells.

“I fucking hate you!” I yell.

“Don’t yell at me!!!!” He screams.

“Don’t yell at me.” I whisper.

Our heads are touching one another’s, and our eyes locked. Hayes lips meet mine first, he roughly

gropes my face while doing so. I can’t help but kiss him back, love him back.

I’m hesitant but Hayes’s body is leaning into me, we’re pressed against each other. Our eyes are

connected, and everything is buzzing.

Then the bathroom door inside the bedroom opens.

It’s Rochelle.
