much?” she asked, wanting to know the answer to that question.
    He said nothing.
    “Let’s go get another dri-ink,” Ava sang, linking Raven’s arm and leading her over to the bar.

    Kerry and Leila joined them, and they moved over to the other side of the room where the mattresses were thrown about on the floor.
    The different colored streamers, for the morning, hung like drapes from the ceiling.
    Pillows were all over the place from fighting, and throwing.
    Taking off their slippers and putting them to the side, the girls jumped all over the mattresses, laughing and screaming as they fell about.  
    Raven lost her footing and fell in a heap, into the soft pillows. As she was lying on her back, she moved her hair out of her face, rolling on to her stomach.
    A movement caught her eye and she looked up; into a pair of gray eyes.
    “Yes?” she asked, giggling. The shots were having more of an effect on her and her head was spinning a little.
    “Is that how it looks?” he asked, licking his lips.
    “How what looks?”
    “You. In bed. Rolling around.”
    The image of Beck in bed appeared in her mind, making her angry. She didn’t want to imagine something that was an impossibility. If she gave into her body’s wants, then she’d just be like the other girls; used.
    “Not to you,” she spat, with more venom than she intended.
    Instead of Beck getting angry like she expected, he looked amused, confusing the hell out of her.
    “Goodbye, Raven,” he said, leaning forward a fraction as if making sure he had her full attention.
    Beck stood, kissed the air in her direction, then left.
    “I don’t care what you say, Ray, that’s fucking hot,” Kerry stared at her.   “Please tell me you’re tempted to go after him and just…grrr.” She bunched her hands in front of her as if about to rip somebody’s clothes off.
    “Gah!” Raven yelled, screaming into the pillow she pulled over her face.
    “He’s gone now, so let’s go dance!” Leila jumped off the mattress and headed to the makeshift dance floor, the girls following behind.

    The girls enjoyed a couple more drinks and a few more songs before they felt they’d had enough. They were going back to their dorms.
    “Our slippers are gone,” Raven said, looking round. “They were right there.” She pointed to the ground where they’d left them.
    “Oh no,” Ava laughed, throwing her head back. “Well it was our fault for leaving them; it’s no problem.”
    The girls nodded their heads, slightly swaying as they stood.
    “Lessgo girlies!” Raven said, slightly slurring, and pointed to the door in an exaggerated motion. “I need to go to bed.”

    *****

    “My head hurts!” Ava groaned from the bed across the room.
    Raven also felt a little worse for wear and had trouble opening her eyes.
    “I’ll get us some Tylenol,” she said, forcing herself to get out of bed.
    The girls were wearing the same clothes they wore to the party. No sense in getting changed if you were already dressed for bed, right?
    Raven collected the pills from her drawer and opened some bottled water. They both took the medication, and she climbed back into bed.

    “That party was so much fun,” Ava said, covering her eyes with her arm. “I couldn’t believe how good it was considering what happened.”
    “Did I miss something?”
    “No. I meant with Bobby and Beck.”
    “Oh.”
    Raven remembered Beck removing Bobby from behind her, and the look on his face as he told him to move away.
    “I really thought he was going to hit that kid. I don’t know why Bobby thought he could behave like that, especially in his first week; and with a senior!”  
    “Yeah. He came on a bit strong, I guess,” Raven said, her voice almost a whisper.
    “What’s wrong, Ray?”
    “It’s nothing, forget it,” she said, plastering a fake smile on her face. “I’m starving, lets get breakfast.”

    Kerry and Leila didn’t look too good either. They all wore sunglasses to hide their
