Sophia
I swear there are more people here at this party than the last one. The fact that it’s going so well only makes me feel better since I did most of the planning. The band I hired is killing it, and everyone’s having a great time.
I’m standing toward the edge of the party with Sapphire. She takes out her phone and smiles as she sends yet another text to someone.
“Who is that?” I tease her, already knowing.
Her face falls as she quickly puts her phone away, her cheeks flushing before she takes a quick drink.
“Tell me it’s that hot teacher I saw you flirting with earlier.”
“You saw that?!” She quickly asks, her eyes bright as she turns around when some people start looking at her. She smiles it off, tugging my arm and pulling me away.
“Yes, you weren’t exactly hiding! What’s up with you two?”
I watch her shift a little uncomfortably, and I’ve never seen her like this before. She’s always so confident in everything she does.
“We’ve been talking, and it hasn’t been about class.”
She wiggles her eyebrows at me, and my mouth drops open at her confession.
“Sapphire! Have you two met up or anything?”
“No, nothing like that… Yet.” She falls into a fit of laughter, and it’s infectious, so I can’t help but join in before she continues. “He’s so kind, and he’s just so handsome. He makes me feel alive in a way I don’t think I’ve ever felt. He flirts with me as much as I flirt with him.”
As soon as she says it, I feel like someone’s staring at me. The hair on the back of my neck stands up, and a chill creeps across my skin. I look around, trying to find who’s staring at me, but I don’t see anyone around.
I look at Sapphire, and she doesn’t seem to notice as she continues talking about her teacher, but I can’t focus on her words. I take a sip of my drink, forcing myself to look back at her, but my eyes continue to wander until the feeling finally goes away.
“I don’t know; I guess we’ll see what happens. I won’t make the first move, but I also won’t stop texting him, either.”
“You’re crazy.” I add with a small laugh before we both finish our drinks.
“I’m going to go find Ax.” I tell her, and she nods as she makes her way out to the dancefloor. I look around for a moment, quickly seeing him and Lucien playing a drinking game at one of the tables. I watch him for a moment, admiring how he laughs with him; the others around them seem to be drawn in. Everyone pays attention to him when he talks; he’s always been the life of the party. I stay there for a moment, grabbing myself a new drink and just admiring how happy he looks in his natural element.
After a few more minutes, he spots me, his eyes lighting up as he calls me over. I feel my stomach drop like it always does when he shoots me a wink, and I can’t help but make my way over to him.
He quickly explains the rules of the game they’re playing to me so I can join in. I watch them run a round of pouring their drink into the cup and standing in a row against another team. One person drinks it, then places the cup down on the edge and flip it with their finger. As soon as the cup lands upright, the next person goes.
It seems easy enough, but I can already sense the competitiveness in the air. I practice flipping the cup once, under Ax’s direction and it lands upright on the first try. He grabs me in a hug and quickly twirls me with an excited yelp before setting me back down.
“She’s on my team.” He says, and the teams readjust and another person steps in so the teams are even again.
I’m in the middle of the pack when the game starts, and I watch Ax in front of me quickly down his drink and instantly flip his cup. I do the same. Thankfully, I have the same luck as the first time and finish flipping it so Lucien next to me can go. I find myself cheering them on as the cup just won’t land upright as he keeps trying. He finally gets it, and it’s on to the next person. I’m immediately invested in this easy game.
The last person on our team goes, it’s Rina against the last person on their team, and it’s down to the wire. He’s flipping and missing at the same pace Rina is and each team is yelling at the other to get the cup to land when Rina finally makes it. We all yell and cheer as she made it, and it was just so much fun.
We immediately set up for the next round as a few more people joined the game.

We end up playing that game, plus a few others, for so long that I’m completely wasted. My vision is blurring, and the band is playing one of my favorite songs. I grab Ax by the arm, drag him over to the makeshift dancefloor, and wrap my arms around him to start dancing. He immediately falls in step with me, holding onto my waist and pulling me so close to him nothing would fit between our bodies.
Nothing else matters but being here with him in this moment. The weird feeling of being watched, my cold fire, and my uncertain future means nothing as he leans his forehead against mine. I lift up, pressing my lips to his, loving how soft they are. He opens his mouth, his tongue pushing into mine, exploring every inch as we sloppily make out on the dancefloor.
He pulls away as the song changes, and I stare up into his deep brown eyes.
“Let’s go to our room.” He links me, my insides clenching as I nod. He takes my hand, weaving me through the party and up the stairs. I can’t help the giggle that escapes my lips as we continue to our room, the edges of my vision blurring as I stumble behind him. We make it into our room by some miracle, and he pushes me against the door.
"Now that we're no longer virgins let's go ahead and have that dirty, sloppy, drunk sex."
His deep voice rumbles through me as I press my lips to his, and he effortlessly lifts me up. My dress hikes up against my thighs, his arousal pressing against my panties, and I moan into his mouth. While using the door for leverage to hold me, he maneuvers his pants, and I hear his belt hit the floor as his erect member has nothing but my panties blocking him.
It takes him a moment since we’re so drunk but he manages to move them to the side and takes me in one deep thrust. He swallows my gasp with his mouth as he relentlessly thrusts inside me, my orgasm building quickly. He tips his head back, a groan leaving his lips as his pace quickens, and my arms grip on his broad shoulders, my back starting to get sore as he keeps hitting me against the wall. But I couldn’t care less as my body heats up from him.
“Come for me.” He says, and I instantly come undone for him. I squeeze around him, feeling him finish at the same time with one last thrust, staying deep inside me. We’re both panting as he rests his head against mine, both of us breathing the same air.
“I love you.” I whisper to him as I finally catch my breath, my body coming down from the quickie.
“I love you so much.” He presses his lips back against mine in a much more tender and loving kiss. He slowly backs away, helping me down slowly as my panties fall back into place. He pulls his pants up and looks at the bed next to us.
“Let’s go back out and party some more!” I say to him, grabbing his hand as he laughs.
“Okay, but let’s clean up a bit first. I kind of messed up your makeup.” He teases as he reaches up, wiping some of my lipstick from under my lip off. I chuckle as I let him take me to the bathroom so we can clean back up.
