You Saved Me Once Book 1

I lock eyes with him, and seconds later my eyes lock with Ro-chelle. She sees Hayes's head on my lap. So does Jeff. Which makes him go back to his car, but I'm running after him.

"Jeff!!" I yell to him. My voice is still too weak, but I try my hardest to swallow the lump in my throat that won't go away.

"What Alex!?!" He shouts. His voice is on the brinks of break-ing. My tears come first.

"Wait!!! Please!" I cry.

He stops walking and turns to me in panic.

"What's going on, why are you crying?!? A-are you okay?!?" He panics.

"Can we talk in your car?" I ask, while staring off at my car.

I wipe my face as we head to Jeff's car, the closer we get, I can feel my pulse increasing. When we finally make it to his car, we sit in the back seats in silence for a while. I needed to tell him what hap-pened, he deserved to know, but I wasn't ready just yet. I'm always so bad at communicating my true feelings. So instead, I grip our held hands together tighter, and kiss him. He kisses me back passionately, while giving me a hug.

Midway through Jeff puts his hands up my thigh. Just like Ryan did. I immediately distance myself from him, in fear.

"I'm sorry." He says.

I can't digest his comment, all I can do is cry. I couldn't help it, I couldn't stop the tears, I couldn't look at Jeff anymore. "Something happened tonight." I cry.

"What???" He voice is shaky, which scares me. My heart flutters in sadness, and my stomach keeps dropping.

Before I go to say anymore, I hear Jeff get out of the car. He slams the door on his way out which makes me jump. When I see that he's going over to my car, I immediately get out the car and run to him. He opens the back seat of my car, only to find a slumped Hayes. He's now up, mumbling to himself.

"What did you do to Alex?!?" Jeff shouts to Hayes.

"You don't want to know." Hayes laughs.

My stomach drops harder, my throat burns. A secret. Hayes was going to tell him a secret.

By now, Rochelle and Lorene have now been woken up by the commotion in the backseat.

"You fucking drunk." Jeff spites to Hayes.

"You fucking junkie." Hayes laughs.

Jeff's reaction was a clear sign that he was about to beat the shit out of a drunken already-bruised Hayes. Before it starts, we're dis-rupted by Adam running out of the frat in pure frenzy.

"Get in your car!" he shouts.

He make

amencover to the car faster

than expected, but what he said next came as a surprise.belongs

"Ryan is crazy, they're all coming. We need to go, now!" Adam states.

"Will someone tell me what's the hell is going on?!?" Jeff cries.

Before either of us caning,

a

Ryan runs out of the frat

with a katana. All of his frat baya followed.

"What the fuck?!?" Jeff panics.

"Alex, go now!!! Jeff, I'm riding with you." Adam states.

We don't exchange anymore words. We just get in our cars, and drive home.
