I'm not afraid to admit it. My reaction to Angel not saying he loved me back was immature, but it was honest. I was hurt. I was afraid. I felt exposed in a valley of vultures, without any protection or shelter to shield me from harm. Intoxication only caused my fears to hover over me more. What a poor choice to make when your mind is already clouded with the illusions of your nightmares. So, when Angel came to me a third time, pleading to be heard, I listened. I allowed my lonely boy to express himself and apologize.

"I could hold you here for the rest of the night." He whispered to me as we swayed in the darkness.

"So do it. Your arms are the safest place."

"Nope." He took in a deep breath as he let go of me, as though it pained him to no longer feel my body on his. "We have to have some fun tonight. Come on." Angel grabbed my hand and led me back to where everyone was.

Loki, Zack, V, Max, and Sevyn formed a circle. I saw toothpicks in everyone's mouth and a bag of lifesavers on the stump below where Loki was standing. I immediately knew whatever was happening was Loki's idea.

"What the hell are y'all doing?" Angel laughed.

"Lifesaver. Get a toothpick. Play with us." Loki announced.

"Did somebody say Lifesaver? Can we play?" We were bombarded by a few of my sorority sisters and Roman and his frat brothers. There were five of them in total, adding to the seven of us.

"What's Lifesaver?" Angel huffed.

"Everyone puts a toothpick in their mouth. You take a lifesaver candy and place it on your toothpick, then pass it to the person next to you without using your hands." I whispered his way. "If you drop itโ€”" Loki cut me off.

"If you drop it, you take a shot and you can choose to move to a new spot or seal your position with a kiss."

"Loki?" I fussed.

"Those are the rules tonight sunshine." He smiled.



WHEN THE GAME STARTED, I was standing with Angel on my right and Vanessa on my left. I watched Loki pass the lifesaver to Sevyn, Sevyn to Roman, Roman to V, and V began passing the lifesaver to me. A little nervous, I tried lining my toothpick up with hers. At the last minute, she swayed to the right, dropping the lifesaver onto the ground. Everyone began hollering, yelling for us both to take a shot. Without hesitation, I began finding a new spot until V stole a kiss, planting her lips onto mine, making everyone go wild. Angel gripped my hand tightly, probably hoping I wasn't uncomfortable. V then slid her tongue into my mouth, and for a second, I enjoyed it. I actually felt a stinging sensation in my body as I kissed her back. Unsure if the feeling was the double shots I'd taken, it took me a while to break from her touch.

"Holy fucking shit!" Loki yelled, jumping up and down.

"You good?" Angel whispered in my ear as I wiped my mouth.

I grinned in his direction. "Yup."

"That just made me so hard." He admitted, slapping me gently on my bum.

"I'm so wet right now." I teased.

"Fuck." He whispered into the air.

I laughed under my breath, in love with the idea of getting Angel aroused from a simple kiss. At first, I was afraid this game would cause more friction between us, but I immediately realized it could also do the exact opposite.

I had to pick up the second round, successfully passing the lifesaver to Angel, who turned to pass it on to one of my Sorority sisters, who passed it over to Max. When it was time for Max to pass it on, she looked uneasy. The person she was passing it to was one of Roman's fraternity brothers. As soon as they began the transfer, I knew they wouldn't make it. When the lifesaver dropped on the ground, Max took a shot quickly, and moved next to Sevyn. She seemed so uncomfortable. I wanted to make sure she was okay, but I didn't want to put her on the spot.

Everything was fun and wild for a few rounds. It wasn't until Roman missed a transfer, choosing to take a shot and stand next to me that the tension put us all into a nervous disposition. Angel eyed him before he passed the lifesaver to me. I sighed loudly, praying he didn't purposely try to be a dick. He didn't. Our transfer was smooth. When I got to pass the lifesaver to Angel, I wanted to lighten the mood, so I opened my mouth, allowing the lifesaver to fall between my lips, and ate it. Angel grinned as we both reached for a shot. Then he scooped me in his arms, cupping me roughly as he planted a messy kiss onto my lips. Feet off the ground, the world around me began to spin as an unspeakable heat ran through me. Angel's kisses grew more intense, and I felt that if I didn't stop him, we'd be in a world of trouble.

"Okay!" I sang. Hugging him around his neck, laughing aloud.

"Get a room!" Loki yelled and laughed from the other side of the circle.

"You did that on purpose." Roman nudged me.

"Hmphm." I huffed through my nostrils.

"If I knew that's how the game was played, I would've already taken a chance to shoot my shot."

I quickly looked over at him. He winked and then looked the other way. Knowing that Roman was up to no good, I kept my eyes on him for a while. Once the lifesaver was back on him, he turned to me with a sly grin. Standing still, waiting for whatever he was going to pass my way, I watched suspiciously as he motioned towards me. Once our sticks touched, he turned his head downward, causing the lifesaver to fall onto the ground. Letting out a huff through my nostrils, I shook my head and broke the circle, heading towards the building before things got out of hand.

"Rules are rules." Roman grabbed my arm, yanking me back in his direction and immediately pressing his lips onto mine, while my face felt the squeeze of each of his hands. I heard someone gasp for air as I pushed him away from me. With no time to defend myself, I saw Angel launch at him, fists meeting his face over and over again.

"You fucking piece of shit!" I heard Angel growl. Every time Roman's head came up for air, Angel knocked it back down to the ground. Everyone surrounded them, pushing me off to the side. In fear that I'd be caught in the crossfire, I tried to make my way out of the crowd, when I fell onto the ground. Adrenaline pumping, fear rising, and my worst fears coming to life, I fought to b get back to my feet. I'd always had a fear of being trampled in a stampede of chaos. Within seconds, someone was picking me up. I looked up to find Loki, worrisome, dragging me out of the crowd with everyone else from our crew.

"Stay out of the way." He roared as he ran through the crowd, rushing back to Angel's side.

Roman's friends had jumped into the fight. One of them had Angel pinned on the ground when Loki ran over and drove his knee upward into his head. I watched blood fly through the air as the guy went flying backwards. Out of nowhere, Zack was pounding the guy repeatedly. Then picked him up and pushed him back onto one of the benches. I didn't see Angel anymore. I searched through the crowd, fearfully, looking for any sign that he was okay. When I never found him in that wild mob of drug and alcohol infested mess, panic sank in.
