Save Me

Chapter 30

The music is so loud that brings life to the whole road. The sound is buzzing and I can feel the bass shake my body at every single beat. Lights are shooting into the dark sky making to glow with a hundred different colors and shades. Only when I approach the mansion, I realize that it's the house where the first part I went to in California was hosted. It feels so long ago but I'm satisfied with how things have turned. I was alone, crying, and now...

Noah puts his hand on my back.

"Some things never change, don't they?" he questions playfully and I giggle.

"Probably not," I murmur walking to the dabble wide open doors. Students are dancing to the beat of the music, couples are making out on the couches, the stairs and beyond them, there is an enormous garden dominated by a huge pool and a crowd of teenagers.

Once we're inside, my ears hurt due to the loud music and I lose Noah. I move between bodies trying to get somewhere less crowded if that's possible.

I glimpse at the kitchen from the corner of my eye and I decide to walk towards it. A hand though touches my back and spins me. The next thing I know is that lips are pressed against me. The feeling ignites inside of me and I relax knowing exactly who is.

When I open my lashes, I glace up to see him smirking down at me.

"Where were you going?" He shouts to be heard over the music. I slightly turn indicating the kitchen. He grips my hand in his and a grin finds its way to my lips. I don't think I'll ever get used to it. That feeling that he cares, that he wants to hold me and not let go. The thoughts behind his actions melt my soul.

He pours some red liquid into a cup and gives it to me.

"What is it?"

"Don't you trust me?" he playfully questions and I take it. I bring it close to my nose and smell it before I place it upon my lips. It smells cheery and it tastes sweet.

His eyes follow mine and only quit gawking at my green ones when I lick the liquid off my lips. After a sip, I put it on the kitchen island and gaze up at him.

"All of it," he states and gives it back to me.

"Why?"

"I need you to loosen up a bit for what I want to do tonight"
My heart stops. My hands get sweaty within seconds and my stomach clenches. What does that mean? What does he want to do?

Desire and anticipation explode inside of me but my nervousness wins. Before I can speak, a boy appears at the side of Corbyn. I'm unable to comprehend what they're saying despite the little distance that separates us. Corbyn turns for a second and after looking at me, he looks at the cup as if he's repeating his words from earlier.

Taking a deep breath, I gulp down the liquid and stare at Corbyn who laughs at something that the unknown boy joked.

Gazing at the empty cup that sits on the island, Corbyn speaks to the boy and after a slit of a second, his hand holds tighly mine. He leads the way trying to find a way to get to where he wants with fewer bodies to go through.

When I notice the stairs, I know exactly where he wants to go. His hand never quit gripping mine firmly, we head upstairs.

Turning a corner, he walks further into the dark quiet long corridor. I see as the brief light of the moon illuminates our way creating a long white road between the darkness. Before I can notice anything else around me, he pushes me to the side and my back hits the wall.

He brushes his lips in mine the way he did earlier in the field. Passion, desire, and tension are mixed into our kisses and its exultation leaves me reeling.
