Chapter 14 (Caroline)


    "Come dance with me!" I giggled, pulling on Gregg’s hand. I was tiny, but I was mighty. I dragged him


    towards the makeshift dance floor before he had a chance to argue. I turned and pulled him against my


    backside. He froze for a moment before I slowly slid my backside against his groin. I heard him groan


    as his hands went to my hips.


    "Aw fuck. Keegan is going to kill me," he muttered. I smiled and continued grinding against him. He


    slowly got more into it as my tipsy state wore off until I was just buzzed. His hands ran over my hips


    and across my stomach. I shuddered slightly when he unknowingly ran over my scar. I continued


    dancing anyway. The whole time, I felt his eyes on me. I wanted him to watch. I wanted him to know


    how it felt. Turning quickly, I reached up slightly and pulled on Gregg''s neck; making his lips crash into


    mine. He froze in shock for a moment before I bit his bottom lip teasingly. He groaned as his hands


    found my lower back. I moved one of his hands so he was cupping my butt. That only made him groan


    louder. Gregg was a pretty good kisser. I arched into him before I felt myself being ripped away. Tingles


    shot up my arm. I knew exactly who it was.


    "Hey!" I protested. He dragged me up the stairs and to an empty room. He pushed us inside before he


    mmed the door, locking it in the process. I crossed my arms and red at him. I was still buzzed so I


    still had that warm fuzzy feeling in my stomach... or was that from Keegan''s touch? I didn''t care.


    Keegan rubbed a hand down his face before he looked at me incredulously.


    "What was that?" he asked, getting straight to the point. My hands moved to my hips.


    "That was me having fun. And if you''ll excuse me, I would like to get back to Gregg," I said. I smirked


    suddenly and shrugged a little. "We were having loads of fun." I added. Keegan''s face turned bright red


    as he red at me. He looked like he wanted to punch something but instead, he closed his eyes and


    took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes he was calmer.


    "What are you doing?" he practically pleaded. His sudden change in tone made me blink in surprise. It


    also made me feel really guilty. I didn''t want to feel guilty. I was suddenly very angry again.


    "You don''t get to do that! You don''t get toe in here with your girlfriend and then dictate who I hook


    up with," I yelled at him. He flinched.


    "You can''t hook up with me bet-best friend; that''s against... its low, Caroline... and I guarantee that he


    won''t hook up with you tonight. He''s too loyal to me," he said softly, catching himself twice. I was pretty


    buzzed so I barely noticed. I sighed and looked away from him as tears pricked my eyes. I didn''t want


    to cry. I didn''t want to cry in front of Keegan. I didn''t want to let him know how he affected me. A tear


    fell anyway. I felt a calming hand cup my cheek as his thumb brushed my tear away. I let out a breath


    with his touch. I secretly hated that he could make me feel better so easily just by touching me.


    "Aw baby, I didn''t mean to make you cry," he said softly. A warm sensation filled my body as ''baby''


    slipped through his lips like velvet. My eyes shot up to his and I was angry again. I pointed a finger in


    his chest and took a step forward. He inadvertently took a step back as his eyebrows raised in surprise


    at my sudden mood change. My re could''ve put him six feet under.

    "Don''t call me that," I seethed. It hurt too much for him to call me that, knowing that he''s already taken.


    And I wasn''t a home wrecker. He raised his hands in surrender. I sighed and calmed down a hair. "I''m


    going back downstairs. You should probably find your girlfriend," I said, sneering on thest word. At


    thest second, Keegan''s hand wrapped around my wrist and pulled me into his solid body. I gasped at


    the electricity flowing through me and our sudden close proximity. His other hand found the small of my


    back. My breathing became erratic and staggered and I couldn''t control it.


    "Caroline, please be careful. I don''t want you to do something that you''ll regret in the morning," he said


    softly and urgently. His face was so close to mine that I could feel his warm breath against the top of


    my head. His piercing amber eyes held my eyes. I could only imagine what color mine were right now.


    My emotions were so all over the ce that they were probably all colors. I bit my lip lightly as


    Keegan''s eyes followed the movement. His head slowly leaned down until his lips were only


    centimeters from mine. I didn''t want to stop him, but I knew that I had to. And I obviously had more


    control over my actions right now than he did.


    "I would regret this," I whispered. He froze and pulled back to look at me. He looked hurt.


    "Yeah, we should probably get back to the party," he said softly, letting go of me. I sighed when he did


    and wasted no time darting out the room and back down to the kitchen. I grabbed a full red Solo cup


    and took a generous sip.


    "What did Keegan want with you?" I heard from behind me. I turned and shrugged.


    "He was just trying to sober me up a little and keep me from doing something I would regretter," I


    answered easily. I didn''t like Natasha but I could still be cordial towards her. She smirked at me as she


    leaned against the counter in front of me.


    "That''s my Keegs... Always trying to help out the less fortunate," she said with a sickeningly sweet


    tone. And just like that, I hated the bitch even more.
