Lost

"Excuse me…did I scare you?" the girl asks and Nice breath slows down given her a faint smile in response.

"Sorry I came back for something undone" the girl lets out instantly moving into one of the ladies' private office which was the same room she used.

Nice shrugs for a while before blinking off what just happened and what she meant by 'something undone'.

Taking a steady look at the mirror playing with her mentality if someone shows up behind her again, will she be bold and strong to face it or burst her heart open like she almost did.

Stepping away, still positioning her eyes at the mirror, she then glares at the short door that young lady just walked into, before striding out of the vicinity.

Ongoing back, she notices something she isn't sure she had seen or sensed when passing. She stops then studies the corridor looking back and forth before darting full large covers spread on her side.

Immediately she recovered what Evans told her off not looking into any wall, a room covered with a blanket, or whatsoever it is.

Her heartbeat raises and flashbacks of what took place in that abandoned room start replaying as though she was in those corridors she saw and the sounds she heard this night before waking up.

Regaining consciousness, she notices changes in her environment and becomes confused as to what direction she took to come.

But she kept on moving till she arrived at a door which seemed like hers and opened it only to find a shirtless guy who looked loaded.

Opening her eyes wide as the guy walks close to her, she stares down at him bathing her lashes.

"Who do we have here…" the guy speaks out supporting his weight against the door.

Unable to respond, she peeps into his settlement and realizes that it is different from other dorms and she began wondering if all boys have their individual room but a thought hits her that she wasn't in the boys cite but that of girls.

Looking back at the guy who is presently gazing into her with lust eyes, she shifts backward uncomfortably.

"You should come to spend some time with me. Trust me you won't regret it" he assures stressing his hand over to grip her waist which he succeeds in trying pulling her into his box but she resists with all strength which seems to be a waste of time.

It was then she noticed the scent of liquor on his body representing how drunk he was. She felt irritated so she rolled her head to the side and closed her eyes trying not to inhale much of his scent due to nausea she had.

Knowing she was already dragged in and the door shut, she opened her eyes and found that the view she saw standing outside was different from the real view inside.

The interior was extended with other beds containing sleeping boys except two which were empty. She didn't have the time to start asking why such a vast difference and why the other bed is empty as she brought her gaze to the guy who drew her in.

"You love it?" he asks and she gives him a disgusted smile.

"I don't know why the hell you all sleep in the girls' dorm but I'll make sure to report this as soon as possible" Nice threatens and he burst into laughter not minding if the other guys waken.

She crumples her brows while he slows down into a mischievous smile on his lips "I see you're just as high as I am" he says meaning he took some drugs as well.

No doubt I've been getting some weird odor my head couldn't download what exactly it was! They do drugs here!!

"I guess you should be the one crying if caught in the boys' territory" he adds and I narrow my eyes at him with a skipping heart almost about to broke out of my rib cage.

"So let's get this done before you get caught. I would help you out before dawn" 

Who the fuck does he think I am!? He must be running mad alongside the guys sleeping in their beds. Maybe the supervisor placed them here to take a close watch on them since the boys' dorm is on the other side.

Oh, my gosh…maybe this is a psychiatric room for crazy students!! I should live in this place before I get killed. But, how will I do it when this guy won't let go of me…? She thinks of a strategy

I should distract him

"Uhh…so, where is your bed?" she asks and he gestures behind him bringing her gaze to study his bed closely before looking into his eyes with a sweet smile causing the guy to smile back pleasantly.

"Let's do this" she mutters "But first, you need to make your bed because I can't lay in the same manner you laid some bitches in"

He squints his eyes at her for some time then responds "Sure…"

Turning around towards his bed, she doesn't instantly make a step but when he starts making his bed, she reaches out for the handle of the wooden door with her hand behind her back and opens it.

Going out, she closes the door gently and sighs in relief when successful but turning around to leave, she pumps into a full-figured muscular structure with a family grease fragrance and almost stumbles before she's caught up against a molded chest.

Lifting her head to see who it was, her eyes weakened at the sight of the bright honey iris Evans who is currently giving her a confused look while her breath increases.

He was wearing long black pants and a grey long sleeve shirt with his dark hair which was unstable as part of it stubbornly bounced at the corner of his forehead making it look messy.

"What are you doing here?" he questions still not letting go of her when the door swigged open by a heavy breathing guy.

Evans' eyes his roommate's twisted view behind her "You tricked me bitch!" the guy yells

She turns around facing the guy while Evan let go of his grasp.

"What's going on here?" Evan query with uneven brows and Nice replied still facing the crazy guy "He tried sleeping with me"

Evan looked at his roommate who seemed confused and guilty "Are you with her men?" he nervously asked looking at Evan who had daggers at him.

"Yeah I am" Evans' replies formally and the guy backs down in fear "Sorry for that bro. I thought she was some crazy bitch-"

"Enough! Just get back in before the supervisor walks here" Evan orders cutting his words and he obeys shutting the door afterward

All the while Nice was so confused about what is happening to her and why both guys seem to know each other so well. She turned around facing Evan who seemed displeased but she brushes it away inquiring "Do you know him?"

"Yes he's my roommate and you, what are you doing here?" he questions instantly

"W-What!? Your roommate you say…" she exclaims not believing his words.

"Just tell me what the fuck brought you here if you don't want to get caught!"

"This is so confusing right now…" she mumbles robing her forehead with her palm in panic "I-I went to relieve me but on coming back, I was stocked into this vacancy I thought was my room…that's how I came found that crazy roommate of yours and some guys asleep. So I don't know what's going on because I'm certain I'm in the girls' quarter"

Evan tries to descend her statements but gets more confused than she is.

To be continued…
