„Eyes like to play

Around the room

Until you feel light."

EMA's pov

Connor woke me up. We were still in his room. He looked outside and it was clearly already night. I decided to sleep over here and call my dad to say I'm staying over at friend's house. Call was short but I'm sure it would've been different if I talked to Luka. He would demand reasons for my stay and address and I don't know what not.

Connor was very happy I was staying over. He seemed to be much better than few hours ago. That made me feel much better. I guess our sharing of feelings sometimes played big part in this. I noticed that more time I spend with him, more I feel from him.

"Ema is staying over tonight!" Connor said as we walked into dining room. Fran, Yuko, Astra and Zack were already inside playing Monopoly. I think Connor went to get them while I slept.

"Then I have an idea for fun night.", Fran said with a grin. I could instantly see annoyed expression take over Yuko's face. "We could go party together. Malia is busy today so we can get wrecked."

"What does Malia have with getting drunk?" Connor asked while sitting down on sofa.

"She doesn't like alcohol.", Fran answered. "And I don't want her to see me wasted yet."

I giggled at that. Malia and Fran were just so sweet that it was suffocating.

"We are sweeter!" I heard Connor say in my head. I turned to him and he winked at me. I had to hide my face with hands since blush started to take over my cheeks.

"Is Ema blushing? Oh my god!" I heard Fran say as she walked to be. "Come on, don't hide your face!"

She took my hands and saw my red face. It took us a second to notice how funny that was. We both started to laugh. "I can't believe a little wink got you red!" Fran said and sat on the floor in front of me. She passed her hand through her hair and laughed a bit more.

"Yeah, let's party tonight.", Connor said. "But I'm not drinking. Someone has to take us home and my powers get silly when I'm drunk."

We all decided to go to our rooms and get ready for one long night. Now I wasn't a big fan of crowds or partying, but I still wanted to go and see how does Fran get when she's drunk. I will drink a little, but not get wasted. Somehow puking all over myself and headache next day didn't seem so appealing. I knew Astra was getting wrecked completely by how he asked Zack to look after him while he's drunk. I also can't wait to see how he behaves.

I looked for some party clothes but my choice was too big. I don't know how to make decisions.

"Could you help me pick something?" I asked Connor. In matter of few seconds he was knocking on my door. I opened and he instantly went to closet.

"I didn't know you had some sense in fashion.", I commented while he looked around.

"You can't not have sense in fashion while living with Astra. Trust me, princess. That guy is planning on studying fashion design.", he said and pulled out one dress, a belt, high socks and high heels. "What about this?"

I looked at clothes, already feeling like blushing. He set them on my bed and looked for a jacket that can go with it. I decided to take them and get dressed in bathroom.

"Don't peek, okay?" I asked Connor. He nodded with his back still facing me but I saw his ears get red.

"She will kill me, I swear.", I heard him say in his head. He probably wasn't even aware of that.

"I'll try my best not to.", I answered out loud and when he turned to me I winked at him and went in bathroom. That's my payback for before.

I got dressed and looked at myself in mirror. I looked happy and new. Like this wasn't me anymore. I have known Connor for only 11 days, yet I'm head over heels for him. This can't be fair.

My legs looked weird in heels. Dress barely got to my knees and so much of my skin was out in open. I felt my confidence slipping. High socks made my legs stand out even more.

"Ema are you okay?" I heard Connor. "Can I see you?"

I opened bathroom door and stepped outside. Connor looked at me. His eyes traveled all the way from my eyes to high heels he picked for me.

"Damn.", he whispered and looked at me even more. "Daaamn.", he said once again, this time getting closer to me. His hands found mine and he kissed me. I felt my confidence get back after his words.

Usually while we kiss I leave my hands in his, but I got bolder this time and put them around his shoulders, on his hair. I felt him loose his cool for a second as he put his hands on my waist, bringing me closer. Our kiss got deeper. Deeper than any got before. Then I did something that woke him up. I pulled his hair a bit and he went nuts. His hands weren't just on my waist anymore. Now one was traveling around my back while one rested on my neck. Room got heated as Connor pushed me to bed. I fell onto it and he instantly got on top of me. His tongue exploring my mouth. Then he went to kiss my neck. I felt him suck on one spot and hell broke loose in my head. I know I moaned, but I didn't hear myself. I didn't hear anything except Connor's heart.

He sat up, breathing deeply to calm himself down. I giggled knowing it was me who made him like this. He stood up and looked at me.

"Honestly, you can wear anything and you'll still be the prettiest girl I have ever seen. But like this, laying down like a mess, you shine princess. Now give me a minute to gain my senses back.", he said and I almost cried. I felt cherished. This all felt right.

He went outside in hall as I collected myself too. I fixed my dress and out on jacket that he set on my bed.

"I can fix up your hair if you want to.", Zack said in my head and I went to dining room where he usually is. When I didn't find him there, I went to his and Astra's room. After knocking I heard Astra telling me to come in.

Now this was my first time seeing a boy in a dress, but I promise I've never seen a girl that looks better in a dress than Astra. Dress was short and blue, he wore matching high heels and red lipstick. Astra looked feminine. If I didn't know he was a boy from before, I would've thought he was a girl. Zack wore jeans and a casual shirt. He looked very pleased with his boyfriend in a dress.

"So what do you think?" Astra said and turned around so I could see open back of his dress.

"I'm speechless, Astra, it's awesome!" I said approaching him. He looked just stunning. Astra took my hand sat me down on one chair.

"Thank you! You too look awesome. I can't imagine Connor's reaction.", he said with a smirk. "Now let baby bear do your hair while I put on eyeliner."

Ah, yes, Connor's reaction. I tried not to think about it, but as Zack started to brush my hair, I saw a hickey on my neck and started to think for bold we became in my room. I saw Zack notice hickey and he only smiled.

"I didn't know you know how to braid hair.", I said to Zack as he started to braid it.

"I used to braid sister's hair. And now Astra's.", he responded. Talking about his sister was hard for him, I could tell, so I didn't ask more.

After he braided my hair, I went to dining room just to find Fran and Connor already there. Yuko must be still dressing up. Now that my hair was up, you could clearly see the hickey. I asked Astra to help me cover it up, but he said hickey from my soulmate is something to be proud of. And I agreed. So when Fran saw him, I smiled. She was shocked, but happy for me. Connor was whole another story. He noticed me pretty much displaying it and got red in his ears again. I knew he had a lot of confidence in his dominant side, but something as simple as a hickey made him get all red.

When Yuko came, I saw him without suit for the first time. He, just as Zack, had one casual shirt and jeans. He wasn't very happy with idea of partying, but he still went with us.

"I am so going to regret this.", he said as we started to hold hands so Connor could transport us. In matter of seconds we were in a small street that was next to a bar. It was around midnight now and bar was probably full with drunk people.

"Alcohol, here we come.", Fran said as we walked pass the bouncer. He didn't stop us or talked to us. We came inside barely lit room, squished between people holding beers, dancing. I don't know what got to pray to, but I'll pray to every single one of them if I don't drink something strong soon. Connor took my hand and we went to order something. I don't know what he ordered for me, but it burned as I gulped it down. I could instantly feel tension leave my muscles. Connor laughed at sudden change in my posture.

Astra, Yuko and Zack found us soon. Fran was dancing her heart out somewhere and we decided to let her. Connor ordered same thing for Yuko, but it took Yuko much longer to decide will he drink it or not. Then he did and I could see why Connor laughed after I downed my drink. His face showed how disgusted he was by drink, but he asked Connor to order more. So Yuko is getting wrecked too. I decided to stop after my first. One was enough to make me comfy in this bar. Astra didn't even take a break. By the time Yuko drank two, Astra was already on his fourth, climbing in Zack and begging him to let him drink just one more. Zack ordered him beer and went with him on dancing floor. Yuko was clearly lightweight. After his second drink, he was barely standing. He came to me and put his arm around me and Connor so he could stand more stable. Then his third drink came and he downed it this time without flinching. I couldn't hold back a giggle. I looked around and saw Astra dancing with his boyfriend. After watching them for a bit I was sure that drunk Astra was very horny. Like a dog in rut. He swayed his hips on Zack and Zack, even though he was sober, moved slowly with Astra. Fran on other side of dance floor was screaming and jumping at music she obviously loved. I don't know how much she drank, but she could still stand and dance, so I'm sure it was okay.

I stayed with Connor the whole time, holding Yuko steady. We watched over our friends and at some point we all decided to meet up next to entrance so we could check just how sober everyone was.

"I'm oke- I can.. shit... I can stand.", Yuko said while fighting Connors hold on him. As soon as Connor let go of him, he almost fell on his knees but I caught him. He giggled in return. Zack went to get him some water and I noticed few dudes from bar watching Astra. Oh no they didn't.

One guy got up and walked over to us. Two of his friends decided to go with him.

"Why don't you come with me babe?" he asked Astra that was way too drunk to think.

"He is taken.", I said for Astra. Then I felt someone's hand sneak on my waist and it wasn't Connor's. I immediately moved away and hit third guy. I saw madness rise in Connor's eyes.

"We can solve this calmly.", I said to him through link. That didn't calm him down at all.

"Come on, babe, let's get out of here.", first man sad and put his hand on Astra's chest.

Oh no he didn't.

"What the fuck?" man said as he clearly felt very man chest underneath the dress. "You're a dude? The fuck man!?"

His friends looked confused at us. Then one friend tried to touch mine too but was stopped by one, very strong and mad, hand around his neck. Now Zack was back and he isn't letting anyone touch his boyfriend or his friends. It took Zack less than a second to punch guy that touched his boyfriend and I was happy.

We were kicked out, but I was satisfied. For the first time I saw Zack actually use his muscles for something and I couldn't be more pleased. Astra was giggling like an idiot.

Connor took us all back home after we decided that it was late enough and that we had enough fun today.

We appeared in hall in front of our rooms. Zack decided to take Astra back to their bed, Connor went to take Fran home and I pushed Yuko to drink some water. He couldn't even keep his eyes open properly. Connor came back and invited us both to his room. There we flopped on his bed and Yuko was almost instantly gone in deep sleep. I was next to me and Connor was on my right. We just took our shoes off. We can just change our clothes tomorrow.

Connor pulled me into his hands. No words were needed. Then Yuko decided he wanted to cuddle too and, still in his sleep, hugged my waist. Connor found it funny.

I really loved his laugh.

And I really loved him.
