Eden

I find Rochelle in our suite, sitting on the couch with a text book in her lap. I’m semi-surprised to see her studying, but I know exams are coming up.

“There you are,” she says with a sly grin. “I see you got the clothes I gave to Gray.”

I tug at the shorts. “Thanks. I was in a bind.”

She laughs. “I saw you last night at the party. You and Hawk looked pretty close. I’m not surprised you didn’t come home.”

I plop in the chair across from her.

“Nothing happened,” I say. “Well, at least I don’t think so.”

“You took a dose of Happy, right? Too much and it’ll knock you out.”

“Happy?” I ask.

“The pill. Tyson said everyone had to take it.” She frowns. “I mean, I was a little surprised to see you there since I know that’s not your scene, but then again, you and Trip have been pretty close lately. Of course, there was a point I thought I’d made the whole thing up.”

“Why’s that?”

“I could have sworn I saw you with a different hairstyle and amazing glittery makeup.” She laughs. “It was way over the top for you. When I asked Tyson about it, he said you were already gone.”

“Tyson, Trip’s older brother? It was his party.” Things slowly click into place.

I remember Rochelle talking to a group of guys. I wonder if Tyson was one of them. Rochelle’s always invited to parties for one reason and I doubt last night was any different.

“I’m not going to lie. I’ve taken my fair share of recreational drugs, but Happy is the best. Makes me feel warm and tingly.” She gives me a sly look. “Horny.”

That, I do remember. The way Hawk’s hands felt me on that porch. The way I wanted more. How much did he feel? What happened later?

“I think I took too much,” I say. “My memory is shot. I just remember hanging out with Hawk on the back porch. After that is a blank.”

“You and Hawk passed through the kitchen and went back to the bedrooms.”

“We did?” I search my memory and again get the strangest sensation of being kissed, head to toe. “He said we didn’t sleep together.”

“He’s a good guy. It’s probably true.” She cocks an eyebrow. “He looks like he’d be big. You’d probably still feel it today.”

Lord.

I swallow and ask a question I’m not sure I want an answer to, “What about you? Hook up with anyone?”

Her eyes drop to the book. “Tyson.”

“Oh, are you together with him?”

She flips the book closed. “I’ve told you, Eden, things are complicated. I…I owe a debt and just because Luke left doesn’t mean it’s paid.”

My heart cracks. “Ro—that can’t be right. We need to sto—”

She holds up her hand. “I want to be your friend, Eden, but this is my life. My choice. I got myself into this mess, and I’ll get myself out.” She smiles weakly. “It’s not all bad. The Cohen brothers? They’ve both got huge—”

“Nope. No. Don’t want to hear it.” My stomach turns.
