Chapter 4

A week has passed everything went just normal, Zeus and I still act like a normal friend and nobody knows about the arrangement.

One of our friends from school invited us to party tonight at a bar, and I heard everyone is going to come to the party to have fun.

Franki is the one who's going to drive us to the bar tonight, she said she's going to pick me up at 9. It sounds wild when we go to a party every Friday, but trust it doesn't always like that.

I'm ready and now I'm waiting for Franki to pick me up. I've promised myself that I'm not going to get drunk tonight, I have plans for tomorrow. I don't want to ruin my Saturday morning by waking up late with blurry vision.

After a while, my phone suddenly rings and I can see Franki's face popped on my phone screen. I picked it up and she said that she is already outside. I turn the tv off then walk into the lobby,

"Get in bitch!" Franki shout at me and it makes me laugh.

I got into the car, I found that my girls look so gorgeous tonight. I don't know why do we have to go to a party so often, maybe because we're a bored teenager with so many free times.

I can tell that my parents don't care if I want to go to wherever I want, they won't care and they won't even ask me where am I. They will contact me if they have an important thing to tell by telling Rosilla to contact me.

"Do you know Where the bar is?" I asked them.

"It's quite near," She said.

On the way to the bar, Franki and Selina keep talking about Enrico's and Lloyd's activity for next weekend and I'm just leaning onto the window while staring at the dark sky outside.

After a while we finally arrived, Franki parked her car a couple blocks away from the bar. We got into the bar together. I started to hear loud music, just like a normal party where everyone is chilling with one another.

I see Sarah is meeting Lloyd while Franki is walking straight to the bar, I follow her and sit next to her. She orders a lemon squash for us, good cause sometimes being wild in our age isn't really good enough for our health.

"Hey, Gabbi is everything okay?" She asked.

"Everything is fine Franki, why are you keep asking me that question?"

"Nothing babe just want to make sure," she smiles then drink her lemon squash.

After she take a sipped of it she pulls me by my wrist to follow her into the dance floor, but I refuse cause I'm not in the mood so I let her dance by herself. I laugh over her funny move until Enrico came and put his arm around her waist.

I look away then began to drink my lemon squash, I don't know but I always feel sad in the middle of a party like this.

How lonely am I?

Running away from reality by partying with my friends, just because I feel so lonely in my own house. No parents and brother, they left.

"Hey," I heard someone greeted me then take a seat right next to me, he is Bruce one of the students from our school.

I don't really pay attention to him cause I'm not in the mood to talk with anyone right now.

"Why are you sitting alone?" He asked.

"Sorry Bruce but not in the mood," I said before sipping on my drink.

He suddenly stands up and spins my seat to face him, I froze for a moment because I didn't expect that he's going to do this.

"Can you just look at me for a second?" He asked.

I can smell a strong scent of Alcohol from his mouth.

"You're drunk bruce get off," I said pushing him away.

But his gripped on my arms are too strong. He suddenly lean closer into my face and I can see how red his eyes are.

He moves closer and closer while mumbling words that I cannot understand. He puts his palm on my jaw pulling my face closer into his, I try to push him but his grip is getting stronger every time I try to push him away.

My vision got blurry because my eyes filled with tears, this is the moment where I cannot do anything besides hoping that he will stop.

"Get off!" I said pushing him away until a strong arm suddenly throw his body to the floor.

I open my eyes and found Zeus, he punched bruce right on the face which makes blood running out of his nose.

Bruce lays on the floor while holding onto his nose, he seems confused and loopy while his eyes are red. Tears suddenly fall from my eyes, not believing for what just happened. I am scared, my whole body is shaking I cannot even say a word.

Zeus walks closer to me, his blue eyes are looking at me. I close my eyes which makes a drop of tear came out of my eyes. When I open my eyes I see Justin and Enrico ran into us then asked Zeus what just happened.

Zeus explained what just happened, about him trying to assault me. Then Zeus told them that he has to punch him.

Justin immediately told the security to drag Bruce away from us, I feel so scared of him. All I want to do now is walking away from this situation. A man just trying to touch me and I'm so scared.

"Hey, hey, you okay" Zeus asked with his hands laying on my shoulder.

His thumbs moves back and forth against my skin. His face is right in front of me, those concerned blue eyes are looking deep into mine.

I put my palm on my face, I shake my head cause I'm not alright. I feel shocked for what just happened, I began to sobbed and I feel like my hands are shaking.

His arms suddenly pull me closer into his body, his hand brush against my back. I Surprisingly feel warm and comfortable when he try to make me calm. It seems like he knows the way how to take care of me.

He takes his jacket off before putting it around my shoulder. His action makes me froze, I didn't know that he can be this gentle towards a girl.

"Let's get out of here," he said.

I got up from the seat with his arm lay around my shoulder. He walks me out of this bar with his arm stays around my shoulder.

It feel strange when I found out that I feel safe around him. Even though my legs are still shaking. I'm glad that Zeus is there to help me. I couldn't imagine what Bruce would do if he wasn't there, and I didn't want to think about it.
