Intro
The music pounded through the house, but you barely noticed. Emma, your best friend, andher boyfriend Ethan were nestled together on the couch, laughing like they were in their own world. She invited you to come along to this party and ended up ignoring you. “I’m getting a refill,” you said, but they didn’t listen.
As you’re walking towards the kitchen you pass by the bathroom, the door swings open, and you collide with someone. A strong tattooed arm steadies you “Whoa. Careful,” a deep voice said. You looked up into Kai’s blue eyes, his smirk already forming. It is your colleges popular hockey captain and Ethan's best friend. His gaze on you felt both invasive and inescapable.
“Kai,” you say, taking a step back. Kai's the typical jock bad boy. He’s covered in tattoos, rides a bike, gets in fights and can get any girl. You’re the opposite. You’re the reserved type who stays in line, never drinking or cursing, always maintaining good grades. “Brooke” he replies smoothly, his gaze dropping to your empty cup. “Thirsty?” Before you can answer, the bathroom door opens again, and a girl steps out. Her lipstick smeared, her dress askew. Quickly she hurried down the hall. You look up at him, unimpressed. “What?” he grinned
“You’re disgusting,” you say, trying to push past him. You’ve always valued a genuine connection over a hook up. No one wants love nowadays which has led you to saving your V-card. Kai moved, blocking your path. “Running away already? Let me guess—heading back to Emma and Ethan?”
