Paige tried to free her wrist, but Ethan’s hold was unrelenting.
“Ethan, I need to go to the bathroom.” Paige jutted through clenched teeth, furious at this point.
He let go.
Paige quickly rushed for the back door and grabbed a taxi to take her home. She was in no mood to confront Ethan or talk to her friends. She sent Chloe a message saying she felt sick and had to leave for home.
Not completely a lie. Drinking this much often made her feel queasy and sick to the stomach.
She fell asleep as soon as she got home.

The next day she checked her phone to see she’d received a couple of missed calls from her friends, several messages from Daniel and one from an unknown number.
It said: Sorry for last night -E
She had no doubt it was Ethan. She ignored him.
