Chapter 5 Alone

Everleigh's POV

"Alright!" I cheered the crowd making them go wild. "Who wants some more!!"

They shout with a loud noise they could make. I loved it!

"After this, we will have our dance battles!! Let's go!"

I scratch the cd and put a hype beat, causing the crowd to wild on stage. I'm always a fond of noises. I'm not the silent type. I like making sound. Sometimes whenever I am alone-in which I am really, I do concerts at my bathroom. Sing at the top of my lungs.

My father doesn't know I participate in this kind of parties. Actually, I made this bar like this. I found the normal bar with parties and drinking's boring, so I made up segments.

I lowered my black cap to hide my eyes; I do have a white mask on to hide my face. I wore a white tank top with a black jacket on, together with my ripped jeans and sneakers.

Rick and Perry was the best DJ's here. I wanted to try ever since, making music, I'm fond it; in result I participated in. Eventually, the crowd loved me.

I'm a dancer and a musician, and just a bit singing.

"Drinks are up to me tonight!!" I shouted. The crowd never fails to be amused.

Loud bangs make my chest bump with vibration. Crowds' voice synchronizes with the music and beats. I could even here them saying, "Ey, ey, ey, ey!"

My ear only vibrates as the music enters my system. This place makes me lift up my mood every night. This prevents my nightmares.

While mixing songs, I looked at Raven who is intently staring at me with his smug looking face.

My first impression about him is wrong. I thought he is cold, but I think he is not.

I ignored his presences and made my night more fun!

Later, I'm going to hunt for someone who could warm me a bit tonight.

Time for the dance battle!

And I spotted one hot guy.

Many participated and own the dance floor. They exploded with much competitive moves that give 'whoah' factor to the audiences. I also wanted to dance, but I'm a bit conscious of my moves seeing Raven looking at me.

Why am I being conscious?

Maybe just the fact that he is guarding me and it pisses me off? Maybe that's it, that's it.

After my turn, Perry and Rick placed me. They are in charge of the dance for all.

I went back stage and removed my mask. There's a table loaded with bottles of alcoholic beverages. I have low tolerance on alcohol, so I drink alone at our house.

But suddenly, I remembered something in the past that makes me want to drink up a whole bottle.

I grab one bottle sat down.

There are no people here, even Raven. Speaking of him, where did he go?

I closed my eyes hard as soon as I gulped the drink. There's a piercing hot chemical in my throat that makes me want to vomit. The heat crawls up to my cheeks. There is a burning sensation.

"The hell! It sucks!"

I put the bottle down on the table. I was surprised seeing it was half!

"Oh! Amazing!"

I smirked. I felt dizzy now. It's so great! This is the feeling I really wanted. I do have courage for everything.

I want to find the hot guy!

But my smirked suddenly subside. I looked at my pearl bracelet; it was the every first bracelet Jackson gave to me.

"Why can't I throw you away?" I asked, as if the bracelet would respond.

I looked up to prevent my tears to build up, but suddenly, I felt dizzy with the sudden movement of my head.

I tried several times trying to get rid of Jackson in my system. In the end, I couldn't just throw away the memories we had. His gifts and things he gave to me, his messages, his all of him.

"Shit," I cursed, "I thought I moved on... How could you just leave me, Jackson? Why am I not enough? Is it because I didn't give you my body? Fuck that stupid reason."

I felt my tears build up.

"Love isn't about giving your body, it is only a part of memories you make. Love is deeper than that." I felt a little bang on my chest when I heard Raven's voice. It is deep with a bit of husky, making it sound so sexy-why am I complementing him?!!

He took my bottle away from my hand.

"You are drunk, Ms. Scott. I think you aren't good at drinking."

I didn't look at him-I couldn't look at him! I'm embarrassed he saw me saying drama things!

"What a word from you, Mr. Body Guard. You might sound professional if you'll continue."

"I believe you already knew what I was meant of,"

"Of course, I do!" I stand, but my dizziness betrayed me. He was about to hold my hand when I gestured him to stop.

I don't want to be burden to him! I can manage.

"I can walk straight, I can do this. Balance is my thing, perks of being a dancer."

He sighed and massages his temple.

"Believe me! I'll kick your face if you'll help me! I swear!"

"Lower your voice, Ms. Scott. I can hear you loud and clear here."

As I started walking, the world spins. And something made me laugh. I'm seeing Raven, four of them!

Amazing!

"Ms. Scott! Watch out for the chair, you are in the wrong way, and stop laughing,"

I smirked at him. "Don't fool me. You got twins, why didn't you tell me. You four could warm up my bed tonight. HAHAHA! Kidding!"

"Ms. Scott!"

As soon as I face my front, a hard bump on my forehead made me saw flying birds around my head. I saw Raven leaning down on my face before everything went black.
