“Please. I can get any guy I want.”
“Looks like you’re all alone to me, Bailey.”
Her smile turns pleased. “You asked around for my name, huh?”
“No. The guy youcheated onmentioned it to me. You screwed up your own relationship, so now you’re trying to fuck around with other people’s? Get a life.”
Bailey’s smile fades slowly as she attempts to keep her composure. She looks away, hopefully regretting approaching me. “Whatever.”
“Notwhatever. You want to party here? Fine. But stay the fuck away from me.”
“Sure.” She smirks. “You weren’t that great in bed anyway.”
I force my expression to remain neutral, because I’m certain a reaction is exactly what she wants.
She says nothing else as I walk away. Maybe some of what I said sunk in. Probably not. I have other priorities right now.
There’s no sign of Cassia in the kitchen, so I head into the hallway. I pull out my phone and try calling her. It goes to voicemail.
Then I spot her roommate by the front door and beeline for her.
“Nova! Have you seen Cassia?”
“Ten minutes ago, maybe? I think she went upstairs.”
Heart racing, I head for the stairs. Basically sprint up them, knocking into several people.
The first door is locked. Same with the second. I continue down the hallway, deciding to try them all before I make more of a scene.
Maybe she’s in the bathroom. Maybe Nova was wrong, and she’s not even up here.
She’s already mad at me.
Breaking down doors won’t help.
But I’ve heard the horror stories about what happens to girls at wild parties. And I would never forgive myself if that happened to Cassia.
The fourth door opens, but the room isn’t empty.
Cassia glances over from her seat at the end of the bed, then away.
“I don’t want to talk to you.”
“I know.” I exhale, relief coursing through me. Close the door. Lock it behind me.
She doesn’t react as I walk over and take a seat on the opposite side of the bed, leaving plenty of distance between us.
I stare at the posters on the walls.
Whoever lives in here, they’ve got shitty taste in art.
The silence lasts for a few minutes before she speaks.
“Don’t you have something else to do?” Her voice is all snark.
“Nope.” I pop the P.
“It’s not even midnight.Plentyof time to get wasted and crawl into a hot blonde’s bed.”
