A quick chapter for you all 💗💗❤ I thought this song would have been perfect for the frat 🤗🤗

As soon as Nora met my eyes I had to hold back from punching her.

Everything irked me from her cheap dyed red hair to her revealing tights.

She pursed her lips, looking from me to Hero, as if contemplating whether talking to him would get her into trouble. 

She pushed off of Luke.

"Hi, Hero. How are you?" 

She tried pushing her breasts together, but he wasn't having any of it. He grabbed my arm, shoving me into his embrace. 

"Great since I managed to fix what you fucks caused."

Nora frowned. "I'm confused here."

I glowered. "You're not cute, Nora. My boyfriend sees through your facade. You tried to drug him."

Nora straightened, raising a brow.

"What makes you so concerned about anything he and I did? You spend all your time flirting with other guys and when that isn't happening, you're breaking up with him. As far as I'm concerned, I can do what I want. You two broke things off-"

"And we got back together," I spat, "The last thing I'm going to do is let some slut ruin our relationship!"

"You're the fucking slut!" Nora shouted, slapping me hard across the face. 

This didn't sit well with Hero; he rushed past me, pushing at Nora knocking her back on her ass.

I snorted, taken aback by this. 

She sat up, her hair hanging over her forehead. She blew at her bangs, anger forming on her features. 

"What, Tiffin? This pussy isn't good enough anymore?"

"You keep your fucking hands off my girl!" He growled, practically spitting at her through his teeth. "You want to fight like a man, you can raise your fists to me!"

Nora shook her head in disbelief. "You knew you liked me coming onto you. That kiss we shared was sexy."

My mouth hung open at this? Kiss? Did he lie to me? 

"Don't listen to what comes out of her fucking mouth!" Hero begged, staring into my eyes. "She's trying to get a rise out of you!"

"Are we even surprised?" Kylie taunted. "It's called seven minutes in heaven for a reason."

"That's right, little girl," Nora laughed. "Did he tell you how he talked shit about you the entire time we locked lips? Our hands were all over each other until he found the pills. I was willing to forget about the deal I made because he was willing to sleep with me."

Tears gathered in my eyes as I saw none other than Niall appearing through the crowd to join the group.
 
"What's going on?" He asked. 

I gasped, shocked that he was even here. 

"Niall, where's Josephine?"

Could she have been here? I needed a hug from my friend right about now.

"She's packing up her things at the dorm," He replied, "Said she had a lot on her mind regarding her new job. Yes, she knows I'm here."

I nodded. I didn't really know what to say. 

"Enough of this pity party," Annie demanded, "I want to play a game of Would You Rather. But we're going to spice things up a bit."

"What do you mean by that?" I asked suddenly interested. 

Annie looked me up and down.

"What? Does the good girl think she can handle the heat?"

I furrowed my brows. "Just tell me."

Annie licked her lips.

"Fine. Here are the rules. We go around the circle and present two options. Would you rather this or that. Then, the person being asked the question has to pick what option they want to act on."

I snorted, finding this quite comical.

"This sounds like some fucked up game of Truth Or dare."

Annie shrugged. "Are you going to play or what?"

With a last look back at Hero, I nodded. "Whatever I have to do to keep that whore off my boyfriend." 

Annie giggled darkly.

"We'll see."

As we all formed a lopsided oval, I saw the reluctance in Niall's eyes. It seemed he didn't want to be here either. 

Somehow Hero ended up across from me sandwiched between Nora and Kylie. 

How fitting. This was perfect for the two of them. I did my best to keep calm. 

Annie tapped her chin, looking around at all of us.

"Hmm. Who to pick. I think I'll go with... Hero." 

My heart stilled in my chest. 

"Hero-Fiennes-Tiffin," she went on, "would you rather kiss the person to your left or cuddle the person to your right?" 

I sucked in a sharp breath. Was this some kind of sick joke?

"Are you kidding?" Luke scoffed. "I came here with Nora-"

"I second that." Ellie interrupted. "This seems a bit unnecessary." 

"It's part of the game," Kylie scowled. "If you're going to bitch out, don't bother playing." 

Hero eyed Annie with disdain. 

"Did I ever say how much of a bitch you are?"

Annie rolled her eyes. "I hear it every day. Pick one."

Hero had two choices. None of them were going to make the situation better, but one of them had to the lessers of two evils right? 

Without much thought, Hero crushed his lips against Nora's allowing her to cradle his face. Kylie eyed them with her mouth wide open. 

It hadn't taken much hesitation. In all honesty I would have felt more comfortable with him cuddling Kylie who I detested more than anyone.
 
I couldn't sit here and watch this. 

As I made eye contact with Niall, I cried out.

"Niall?" 

He looked at me.

"Yeah?" 

"Could I talk to you? Privately?" 

With a grumble he stood up. 

"Sure." 

I caught Hero glowering at me on my way out of the circle. Why was he even upset at me? He was the one locking lips with his rapist. 

As we entered the empty kitchen, Niall buried his hands in his pockets. 

I cleared my throat already feeling the tension rise. 

"Niall... I just want to get this out of the way. I don't hate you." 

His head lifted as I said this. 

"I know we never got off on the right foot," I continued, "but I know about the marriage proposal. In all honesty, I'd rather you be the one to marry my best friend than anyone else. You're a good guy."

Niall allowed a small smile.

"I really appreciate that Kristina. Now about what happened with Nora-"

I felt my emotions get the best of me yet again. 

"He wanted to do that." 

Niall scrunched his brows. "I know you're talking out of anger." 

I sniffled. "I don't think so. I heard what she said. During seven minutes in heaven they were up to no good. He lied! He told me that she tried to do things with him but he spurred her advances!" 

Niall seemed remorseful. 

"It was seven minutes in heaven. That's the game. I've been on the sidelines while you two sorted out your differences. I will tell you this: Hero fucks up. A lot. But I can tell you with confidence that he does care about you." 

I groaned.

"I'm sorry. I don't mean to drag you into this... I only called you over because... I knew it would get on his nerves." 

Niall shrugged.

"What, you were trying to make him jealous? You do realize I'm still with Josephine, right?" 

I clapped my hands over my face. 

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry. It's not like I want to hurt her. It was out of habit. I just..." 

I trailed off, thinking about my next choice of words. 

"You said he cares about me. In your opinion... does he love me?" 

Niall sighed. "I'm not sure if that's my place..." 

"Please," I begged, "I need to know." 

Niall looked over my shoulder quickly. 

"He cares a great deal about you. That's all I have for you. I can also say that he's not into Nora." 

I frowned. "Even if he kisses her?" 

After a moment of silence, Niall shook his head. 

"Need a ride? I'm headed out." 

I bit down on my nails. 

"Yes, please."

Drama. Drama. Drama. 💔💔

Got to love it.
