I looked at Finn and then Summer and then back at Finn. Summer was shooting daggers at Finn while he sat on the rock with a smug expression, both of them staring at each other with their arms folded.

What the hell is going on between these two?

"Zander, please excuse us." Summer muttered impatiently, shifting her angry gaze from Finn to me. I looked at her with wide eyes and gulped. Damn, this girl is giving me strict military vibes.

"Okay, yeah sure." I mumbled, rubbing the cape off my neck awkwardly, I looked over to Finn and he nodded, giving me an 'I'll explain later' look.

Yeah, of course, you have to.

I let out a deep sigh and let the two be and strolled towards the party. Honestly, I was shocked by the way Finn is behaving tonight. I get it, he gets angry quickly, but beating a guy twice his size for nothing? And then the whole glaring thing with Summer?

He has a lot of explaining to do.

I shook my head at the thought and reached the party area, I took out my phone and glanced at the time. It was fucking three in the morning, and yet these people are dancing, playing, and going crazy like there's no tomorrow.

Well, they all are so energetic...or drunk.

Same thing.

I walked further into the crowded area, sliding through the sweaty stumbling and grinding bodies, trying to reach the beverage table. I reached the table and let out a huge breath before picking up a cup and filling it with water.

I felt a constant buzzing in on my thighs, I looked down and took out my phone from the pocket to see like a hundred messages from Alex, Seth, and the others, asking where I and Finn are. In the flood of messages from guys I saw a text from Mellisa received one hour ago.

Where are you Z
I need you

Immediately my eyes grew apart, I hurriedly dialed her number, just to reach her voicemail. I kept the glass on the table to empty my hands. My heart started pounding against my chest as my eyes scanned her with my phone pressed on my ears, her voicemail recording booming again and again from the speaker.

What did the hell happen?

Without wasting a second I sprinted towards the area where people were dancing, remembering she was dancing with her girlfriends when I last talked to her. My eyes kept searching for her long dirty blonde hair.

I felt a hard pat on my back, I turned around to see Seth, his dark green eyes looking at me with concern, "Where were you, man? And where's Finn, what the hell is wrong with him?"

"Seth, I'll explain to you later. Tell me have you seen Mellisa around?"

"Mellisa? Yeah, she's there-" Seth shrugged indicating to the group of people sitting on the ground before he could complete his sentence I strolled towards the area he indicated. A group of unknown girls and boys were sitting around in a circle, with a bottle sipping in the center.

I stood there, my eyes scanned the anonymous faces until I saw her sitting next to a girl with purple hair. she was giggling and laughing with a bottle of tequila in her hand.

"Mellisa, I dare you to spend seven minutes with Jake in the woods," A boy with piercings all over his face smirked after the spinning bottle stopped on my girlfriend.

I stood there, a meter away from the group which was too drunk to notice anyone watching them. My gaze was fixed on Mellisa, waiting for her to react to the dare. She just nodded and grabbed the hand of the guy sitting next to her and got up off her feet.

"Jake, come-" she stopped mid-sentence as her eyes met mine, her lips parted as an expression of guilt flashed in her blue orbs. She quickly walked to where I was standing.

I was fucking worried and looking all over for her, just to see her drunk and having fun with those weird looking people. Wow.

"Zan, you know It's nothing-"

"Yeah, sure." I scoffed, turning away from her and trying to walk away but felt a small tug on my hand, holding me back. I turned back around to face her. Her petite body reached by my chin, I looked down to see her already looking up at me.

Her light brown orbs were holding a hundred thousand thoughts which I wasn't able to decipher. I could see her eyes slowly filling up with water, making my heart sink deeper into my chest.

I am such a fucking asshole.

Should I really be upset about her spending time with others? I mean was I a good boyfriend to her? I know for a fact that I'm one of the reasons for her tears. I hate seeing her like this, and I hate to break her heart.

But... I have to.

I didn't say anything and softly put my hand on her face, she jumped a bit at the sudden touch but slowly leaned into my palm.

"Hey, are you okay?" I whispered, delicately caressing her cheek with my thumb, she stood silent and just nodded yes. "Let me take you back to the tents yeah?"

"No, I am not drunk. I will be alright." she smiled and immediately her face from that night struck in front of my eyes.

"I'm not even drunk! Don't worry about me, Zander."

Her voice rang in my ears as I let in and out a few breaths, my chest rising and falling. I tried to stable myself, my eyes stung and became watery as I slowly shook my head.

"Mellisa, I'm taking you back to the tents." I sighed, my voice getting shaky, she looked at me with concern and nodded.

Both of us didn't say a word as we made our way through the woods towards the camps. The tent area was dark and was filled with an eerie silence, the only light helping our vision was due to the flame in the bonfire which was on the verge of distinguishing. I took her to her tent and tucked her in, the moment she laid on the bed, she fell asleep.

I stepped out of the tent and took out the pack of cigarettes from my back pocket, opening it and putting the stick between my lips, inhaling the toxic yet relaxing air.

I've to do it.

My eyes widened as I heard some weird noises from the right side. I tilted my head in confusion as I stared at the darkness in the woods until I saw a black figure sitting on the ground. I immediately threw my cigarette on the ground and sprinted towards the silhouette. I took out my phone and turned on the flashlight, navigating my way through the long cluster of trees.

"God, are you okay-" I hastily speak turning the flash to the person sitting on the ground, instead of saying something she laughed. A small gasp left my mouth as I recognized the messy bright blonde hair and the small oval light blue eyes staring at me.

"Brianna, what the fuck are you doing here?" I asked, my loud voice boomed through the silenced trails of woods as I stared at her in confusion.

"Shh, let me...hear what she saying-" she spoke each word slowly, staring at the small ladybug crawling on her palm.

God, She is so fucking drunk.

"Damn, Brianna. You're so drunk." I stated, smelling the strong odor of alcohol from her.

"Am I?" she giggled, letting go of the ladybug, and got up. Well, tried before stumbling and falling back on the ground on her face and started laughing like a maniac.

"God Brianna, get up." I groaned, firmly clenching her arms, trying to get her up. She kept snickering like a crazy person, while I tried to steady her.

I've to take her back to her tent, no way I'm leaving her here like this.

Wait, how did she end up here in the first place?

She finally stood and took the support of the tree. I let out a deep sigh and held my index finger in front of her, indicating she to stop laughing. Her laughter slowly faded as she stared at me with her eyes barely open.

"We're going back to your-"

I stopped mid-sentence as I saw her brows furrowed while she scrunched her nose, making weird gurgling noises, holding her stomach with one hand while the other was on her mouth... Wait-

And before I knew...

A foul-smelling liquid covered me, followed by a shrill wave of laughter.

"What the fuck!" I yelled, disgustingly looking down at my shirt and pant which was now wet and dripping with her puke.

"I-am sowwry?"

"You're sorry? Oh god-" I groaned loudly, scrunching my nose and stretching my arms away from my body, just so I don't touch it. I could feel my stomach crumbling, as the feeling of nausea started building within my stomach.

"Y-you look so cute, I need a camera!" she laughed and looked for her Polaroid in her pockets which was not with her and can never fit into her little jeans pocket, "Uhm you know what? follow me!"

I raised an eyebrow at her and shook my head no, she groaned but grabbed my hand and started walking in the opposite direction of the tent. I wanted to say something but couldn't, her unexpected touch made me forget everything going on, the way her skin felt against mine was enough to give me goosebumps and I hated how my body reacts to her.

We barely walked a meter or so, when we reached a place where the forest cleared up to reveal a large creek, the dark water looked deep and calm, shinning under the moonlit sky. I remembered Finn and the guys talking about a place to bathe, I never knew it would be this beautiful.

I looked around the peaceful surrounding, it was that calm that I could hear the weak noise of water flowing. The water nearer to ground was quite shallow but it went deeper as it flowed down.

That's when I heard a splash, my eyes immediately darted towards the water, just to see Brianna in, the water came up to her neck, so it was just her head popping out, covered with a huge smile as she gazed at me.

And boy, I swear to god I wasn't able to take my eyes off the hypnotic girl with golden hair sitting in the water.

"Zannn, come on in!" she shouted, her voice echoed through the silenced area. I took in a deep breath and nodded no.

I can't go in there, no matter what. If I'll be that close to her, I know I won't be able to resist anymore. She is drunk and not in her right mind. I don't want to do anything I will regret tomorrow.

"What? are you afraid zanny, we can have so much fun in here!" she slurred laughing, I let out a chuckle, shaking my head, and shoved my hand in my pocket.

"Yes I am, now get outta here. I am tired and want to sleep." I responded, gesturing her to get out. I know, this moment will not come again, but I want her to be in her full senses when I will be close to her.

After a couple of minutes, she mumbled something about me being a prissy and dragged herself out of the water, she left trails of water as her clothes were wet. I smiled and shook my head at her goofiness while we walked back to the tents. I looked at the sky to notice, the darkness of night was beginning to clear as the stars began to grow dim, the sky started glowing up with orange-colored light.

The walk back to the tent was longer as all she did was sing, dance, and talked about silly anything and everything on the way here. I made sure this crazy blonde made less noise as soon as we were near our tents, knowing if Mr. Harrison wakes it'll be trouble. I smirked to myself thinking little does she know, I'll be using everything that happened tonight against her from now.

Finally, we get into her tent, she was too drunk to notice, but I wasn't. Summer was not here, and this meant she was still with Finn? Wow. Okay.

Brianna groaned as she removed her soaked shoes and socks, she didn't bother the clothes as they were almost dried now. She hopped and collided on the bed, closing her eyes and sleeping immediately.

I couldn't help but smile at the most amazing night I just had, I gazed at her magnificent face as she slept peacefully.

"Don't leave me..." she suddenly mumbled in her sleep, I was taken aback as my ears weren't able to register what she just said. I could feel my heart beating frantically against my chest as my smile grew wider.

I stepped closer to her and opened my mouth to say something but she started mumbling again, just to say something I never wanted to hear.

"Please, don't...leave me... Finn."
