The House of Angels

Why did you leave me?

Josh leaned back to take in all her beauty and stared at her bare legs intently, then his eyes moved higher and rested on her black, silk panties and lust overwhelmed him. She was staring at him with lust-filled eyes while her skirt had now been pulled off to her knees and he could only think about being inside her.

The rustle of leaves and voices coming their way startled them, breaking the spell. Josh immediately stood up and offered her a hand to help her up as well and they struggled to get dressed as soon as possible, afraid that someone could catch them.

Josh managed to put his pants and shirt on before Daniel came out from the bushes and appeared in front them with a scowl.

"Hey D, what's up man?" Josh asked giving him a confused look.

"You left me alone with Vera, J. Why would you do something like that?" Daniel glared at his best friend.

"You guys were devouring each other's faces I supposed you needed some time alone." Josh c****d an eyebrow at him with a cheeky grin.

"You wanted me gone to hit on Moon, just admit it already!" Daniel scoffed.

"Oh come on, we just took a walk, and honestly I thought you were actually having fun. How did you manage to get rid of Vera? And, who were you talking to earlier? I heard voices..." Josh asked confused.

"I told Vera I needed to find you and go home. She's hot but I'd like to live in peace and we both know if I f****d her she'd get weird ideas and start harassing me again. Anyway, I was talking to a pair of weird assholes hiding behind the bushes. I don't understand why would they spy on you...?" Daniel c****d an eyebrow and shrugged. Moon felt her cheeks heat up, thinking that maybe the guys were watching them getting naked and God only knows what else.

"Uh... uhm... yeah, strange people..." Josh stammered.

"So, what were you doing?" Daniel asked raising an eyebrow, confused by their strange attitude.

"Oh nothing, we needed some space. How did you find us, by the way?" Moon asked.

"I know him very well" he began, pointing his thumb toward Josh "and I'm the one who showed him this place primarily." He smirked at her.

"Alright, why don't we go back to the party? I want another tequila!" Moon suggested, changing the subject.

"Hell yeah." Josh beamed, heading back to the party.

Moon woke up with a painful headache. She opened her eyes and the sunlight filtering through the half-closed curtains blinded her for a moment.

She was in her room, still dressed like the night before, and she couldn't remember anything.

She struggled to get up but she was too weak and gave up. She reached her phone on the bedside table and when noticed it was half past eleven she groaned in frustration, realazing she had missed the daily training with her teammates who even tried to contact her but to no avail.

Her mouth was so dry that she could barely swallow, and she felt her face smeared with the make-up she was wearing the night before.

She was about to make another attempt to get up when her door opened and Josh entered the room.

"Hi babe, sorry for not knocking, I thought you were still asleep." He said with a slumberous smile.

"Josh, what happened...?" She mumbled.

"You were the soul of the party baby, you should have seen yourself..." he burst out laughing.

"Josh, I feel like I've been hit by a train, could you stop making fun of me and tell me what happened? And why are you so fresh and rested since you drank much more than me?" She groaned annoyed, glaring at him.

"You kept calling shots and Daniel kept rolling j**nts, then you befriended everyone and I and Daniel almost killed one guy who tried to touch you." He reached the bed and took a seat beside Moon. "Then we danced all the evening and when you told a group of guys you play soccer they insisted for you to play with them and even if you were high and drunk you f*****g destroyed everyone. It was so sexy..." he purred.

"Why did you let me get wasted? I thought you were supposed to be the wise one!" She groaned, frustrated.

"I was wasted too... and you got very aggressive everytime I tried to take the bottle out of your hands..." he smirked teasingly.

"Did I embarass myself?" She asked nervously, while he offered her some painkillers and a bottle of water.

"I just told you everyone loved you..." he stroked her hair softly.

"Then what happened?"

"Then it was about midnight and you and Daniel wanted to stay but I was drunk and tired and a sober friend of mine offered to give us a ride so I literally forced you two into his car. As we got off the car you threw up like a possessed girl on Daniel."

"I did WHAT?? Oh my God..." she groaned "He must be so mad at me..." she got up and swallowed the whole content of the bottle Josh gave her earlier.

"Oh, actually he burst out laughing and held your hair to keep you as clean as possible, while you kept throwing on him. It was so exhilarating!" He chuckled, amused.

"Oh my God I feel so embarassed. It never happened anything like this to me."

"You drank and smoked yesterday, and you're not used to it. Anyway while Daniel changed in his room I cooked something for you in the kitchen and after you ate you felt a little better, so we carried you to your room and you didn't want us to leave..." he chuckled, stroking lazily her knee. "You said you wanted a sleepover party!"

"Ok, I think I'm not going to leave this ever again. What did Sister Mary say? Is she mad at me?"

"Oh no, babe, you don't have to worry: Sis Mary is almost completely deaf and she usually falls asleep by ten p.m."

"But... isn't she supposed to take care of the kids?" Moon asked confused.

"Usually Mrs Solonov, Sister Jane and Sister Monica take care of everything. They will be here next week, so Helena and I help Sister Mary who is getting old and can't manage to do everything on her own. She totally trusts me and sometimes I feel like s**t taking advantage of her trust." He frowned.

"Ok, I really need a shower and some breakfast... I think I'm still wasted." Moon got up and started looking for a change of clothes.

"Moon... how much do you remember from last night?" Josh asked, approaching her cautiously.

Moon turned around and lock eyes woth Josh, frowning. What else had happened?

"Should I remember something else?" She asked cautiously, looking intently at him.

"Oh, it's nothing. I'll let you shower. See you later." Josh said, approaching the door. "Let me know if you need a ride later." He said befor exiting the room.

After a long shower Moon felt better, although the blurred memories of the night before kept coming back in a messy and confused flow.

It was a particularly hot day and she wore her ripped denim shorts and black crop top, letting her hair dry naturally.

She took her phone and headed downstairs to catch something light to eat, while waiting for the lunch. She was in the second floor when a cry startled her.

"Mommy... mommy, where are you? Why did you leave me?"
