Well... The truth was I actually kind of enjoyed Eric's looks. He was total eye candy! I mean what girl doesn't love that? But... Four would be so disappointed if he ever found out about the feelings that were beginning to develop between Eric and I. He would be crushed that his little sister was going out with his best friend. I couldn't do that to him, so I had to stop anything that may have happened between Eric and I right then and there. "Eric, listen. I've only known you for a while, j mean, two days. You're a great guy, and Four really likes you as his best friend. If anything were to happen between us, he would be absolutely devastated..." I looked away and cast my eyes down. "Madison, I completely understand.. But we can't hide feeling forever when they start to progress, so why don't you think this over and then we can talk, okay?" I glanced back at him and nodded. "Alright, I will." He smiled, "Well, let's get back to the party!" I flashed a quick smile before turning around and heading towards the party. "Oh, and Madison," I turned towards him. "You're dress is slipping.." I looked down to see one of my breast almost fully exposed. "Oh... My goodness, I'm so sorry.." I fixed myself up and grabbed a safety pin out of my bag to keep it secured. "Thanks Eric." He ruffled my hair before turning around to join his friends.
Later that night, after the party, I sat alone in my room. Most of the party-goers, including my roommate, all went to Christina and Will's place for a few drinks before heading back to the dorms. I didn't drink, and neither did Four, but he went anyways. But he told me to go back to my room, and I didn't understand why. He was beginning to make me distant from his friends. Did Eric tell him what happened? The thoughts swirled in my brain as I got changed and put on clothes to sleep in. Maybe he's just trying to protect me, or he knows that something might go wrong at Christina's place so he wants to make sure I'm not there to see it. Why can't he understand that I'm 19 and old enough to have a say in things that I do. But I guess it doesn't matter, Four has a one track mind, he doesn't change it. But maybe I can do something to change it...
And then it hit me. Four didn't want me there because he was drinking! I sat up in my bed so fast I got light headed. "Oh my gosh... I'm gonna kill him." I quickly threw on something that was acceptable to wear out and stalked quickly over the Christina's. I grabbed the knob and swung the door open with all my strength. Everyone's eyes turned to me, and as I scanned the room I saw Four, a bottle in his hand and two on the table next to him. Looking up, he saw me. and threw the bottle in his hand down and knocked the Thera of the table. "Madison, I told you not to come, why are you here?" He stood up, only to fall back down onto the ground. "You said you wouldn't ever... Ever drink again after what happened." My face was bright red, and my eyes were becoming full of tears. "Madison, I've changed, I promise!" I turned away, covering my face in my hands before speaking again. " You said you wouldn't! Ever again!" I stomped my foot and turned to face him. It was dead silence. Everyone's eyes were locked on us. Suddenly, I felt a hand on my back. I looked over my shoulder see Eric wrapping his arms around my shoulders and pulling me backwards. I was shaking and crying, and his touched seemed to sooth me.. It was like I was being held by the biggest teddy bear in the world. And then I did the unthinkable. I turned on my heel, stood on my tiptoes and kisses Eric right on the mouth. "Woah..." was all that he managed to say. Four shot up off the ground and grabbed me away from Eric. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" He yelled, spinning me around to face him. I gave him the best bitch smile I could and said "Well, as long as you can drink, I can do what I want, right? I mean, you've lied to me twice about drinking, so why should I lie about my feelings for Eric?" Four's eyes widened, and I saw his hand come above his head as if to swing at me. "FOUR!" Peter yelled, grabbing his hand from behind and jerking him to the ground. "That's your sister! That's a girl! What the fuck man!" Four looked at me and began to get up. I backed away into Eric's arms, a frightened look on his face. "This is what happened last time... Except you actually hit me Four... I told you to stop drinking and yet, here you are. Mom and Dad would be so disappointed." I said. Four closed and eyes and didn't say anything. "Come on Madison, let's go back to your room." Eric said, guiding me toward the direction of my room. I thanked Eric silently and gave Four a death glare. "Never again." I said.
