them.
“Let her go!” I screamed at Junior, and he did immediately.
I wrapped my arms around Sam and tried to hold her still as Junior lifted his girlfriend off the ground.
“Calm down!” I said in her ear.
“Don’t fucking touch me!” she yelled, trying to wiggle away from me.
“What the fuck, Sam?” I said, holding her as tight as I could without hurting her.
“If you want her, go for it. I don’t care, Moon!” she screamed.
“What are you talking about?” I yelled right back.
She was breathing heavy and still fighting me. She was drunk. Really fucking drunk.
“I fucking saw you!” she yelled.
“You need to calm the fuck down. Now!” I said, and squeezed her tighter as I said the word now.
Her body stopped thrashing and she got really still with her head down.
I scanned the room looking for someone to help me shut this shit down. Fuck, I wished Jase was here. My eyes went to Brice, one of the only sober ones here. I sold him shine sometimes, even though he never touched it. I never asked why he wanted it.
“Brice!” I yelled. When he looked over at me I swiped my hand across my neck and he nodded. He immediately went to the sound system and turned it off.
“Party’s over!” He yelled and started escorting people out as I walked Sam into my house. There was lots of mumbling and giggling but all I cared about was getting them gone and getting Sam taken care of.
I still had one arm wrapped tightly around Sam as I shut my front door behind us. She hadn’t said a word. She was stumbling.
“Come on. Time for bed,” I said, as I led her to my room.
“I’m not staying,” She slurred.
“Don’t even try that shit, Sam. You’re staying. Period.”
“Don’t fucking tell me what to do!” she said, as she fell onto my bed.
I just stood over her for a minute until I was sure she had passed out. When I heard her light snoring, I gently pulled her boots off and covered her with my comforter. I sat in a chair in the corner for a while, until I was sure she wasn’t going to wake up. I don’t even know what the hell happened to piss her off so bad. This was a conversation we were having as soon as she sobered up. But I couldn’t help but laugh just a little. My woman was feisty. That poor girl didn’t stand a chance.
Then I walked out to the barn and took it in. Someone had puked right outside the door and there were bottles everywhere. I was getting too old for this shit. I wasn’t in high school anymore. I wanted a life with Sam without all this. Hanging out with my close friends and having a good time was one thing. But this wasn’t fun anymore. I was done partying with high school buddies that were only interested in using my place for a party house. I didn’t need it anymore. All I needed was her. Things were definitely changing.
Chapter 7
Sam
Shit, my stomach was churning. If I didn’t move, maybe I wouldn’t puke. What the hell did I do last night? I remembered beer pong and Junior passing the shine around. Why did I keep sipping it? That shit was nasty. Oh God. Junior’s girlfriend. I vaguely remembered seeing her whisper in Moon’s ear. Moon smiling. Hair pulling and screaming. It didn’t seem real, it was all a blur. Oh hell. I acted like a fucking idiot. But why was she whispering in his ear? It was loud in there. I remember that. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Wait a minute. I wasn’t at home. The blanket was different. I hadn’t opened my eyes yet, but I knew I wasn’t in my bed. Shit. I couldn’t tell if I was in bed alone. I couldn’t flip over to find out. But I needed to open my eyes. God, I needed a shower. I peeked open one eye. Fuck, it was bright. But there it was right in front of me. The single white rose. I acted like an ass and he still left me a rose. I was humiliated. I needed to go home. I took a couple of deep breaths and forced myself to slide out of bed. Don’t puke, don’t puke, don’t puke. I willed my stomach to calm the
