Everyone except me, because all night I’ve been with Brett. Everyone who is anyone at the campus is at the party. The music is pumping loud, and it seems that Nix really does know what he is doing. The dance floor hasn’t been empty all night. The people have spilled over onto the front and back-yards. I hope the campus police don’t make an appearance, because the football players are all drunk. They’re probably going to get yelled at tomorrow by their coach. That’s why they all decided to drink, so that coach won’t be able to suspend the whole team.
    It’s already midnight and the party has not slowed down. There is even a tag football game out in the back-yard. I can hear the yells from the football groupies, cheering them on.
    I stand against the wall, the first moment of rest I have had all night. I start to think about the eyes that have been following me all night. How no matter where I am in the room, I know he is watching.
    The party is beginning to wind down a bit, and as I am telling Mandy and my sister’s goodnight, Brett throws me over his shoulder, carrying me upstairs. Oh boy, I can’t believe he just did that in front of everyone, and I am wearing a dress. Now everyone knows what we are about to do.

I am putting my stuff away. I need to leave this fucking party. Since the moment I saw her she stole my breath away. I felt my heart start beating again when I saw her. She is beautiful. Ah, I get hard just thinking about how she looks in that tight ass fucking red dress. It’s pissing me off that the asshole has been all over her all night. I know I just met her, okay, I haven’t actually met her.
    “Hey, gorgeous, do you have a name?” I hear someone from behind me. I turn around and standing there is this pretty hot girl. She looks familiar, though I can’t place her yet.
    “Yep, DJ Nix,” is my reply. I want to finish packing my shit to go home and forget Olivia and her red dress.
    “I just figured that was a stage name or something.” She giggles as she twists one of her red curls with her finger.
    “It’s Phoenix.”
    “I’m Kylie, by the way. I have never seen you around here before. Did you just move here?” she inquires.
    “No, I have lived here all my life, I just don’t do college parties,” I tell her. I have tried to keep myself out of temptation. I have been sober and drug free for two years now and I really want to keep it that way. So college frat parties are out of the question since that is all they do.
    “Do you fuck college girls?” She stuns me with her question.
    “Not forward ones, sweetheart.” I know she is probably drunk and won’t remember this exchange. Well, I hope she is. I feel the heat going through my body. I know who is looking at me, and from the corner of my eye I see her looking at us with a frown. Did she not want me talking to her sorority sisters? Well, I didn’t either, she came on to me. Just then I see her flying through the air; her fucking boyfriend is sweeping her off her feet and throwing her over his shoulder. I really need to get out of this fucking house.
    “Look, Kylie, I am really busy right now. I have to clear out all this shit, so excuse me.”
    “Well, Amanda told me you work at Po!son, so you’ll see me there one of these days,” she says with a wink as she turns back around and walks towards a group of frat boys off to the side. And I see her forgetting all about me as she flirts with them. Good .
    I am taking my speakers to the car when Mandy stops me on the driveway. Just fucking great, how many more interruptions am I going to get? I just want to get the fuck out of here, because just knowing that in one of those rooms upstairs Olivia is probably getting laid makes me see red. I have no idea where all this jealously is coming from. I don’t do feelings.
    “Hey, Nix, you were awesome tonight, but you always are. Are you leaving already? I thought we could share a drink or something, before you go,” she
