“Let’s get out of here.” I don’t wait for her to say more. I drop my napkin on my half eaten plate of I don’t even know—but I do know that I’m starving for a cheeseburger dripping in grease, and I’ll be having the driver swing by a burger joint— before leaning back and meeting her eyes, she bites her lip and nods. I stand, and like the gentleman I am, hold my hand out to help her from her chair. All eyes at the table glance our way, I paste a fake salesman smile on my face and offer my other hand to Ron, shaking it firmly, then moving to kiss his wife's cheek. “This has been a lovely night, but Dolly and I agreed to get a few drinks with the band to celebrate,” I announce then glance at Dolly giving her goo-goo eyes, while internally rolling mine. I should quit the band and become an actor for the award winning performance I’m giving here tonight.
Ron pushes his chair back from the table and stands. “Ah spectacular, have a great night you two. It was great to see you again Memphis,” he says, before giving Dolly a kiss on the temple. I take her hand and place it on my arm, leading her out the door. People try to stop us on the way, but I just tell them we’re late for another function as politely as I can. I need to get the fuck out of here before I explode. This is not me. I don’t wear expensive tuxedos and meet and greet with the fortune 500 club. I just want to create music and live my dream. If it wasn’t for the woman on my arm’s ultimatum, I wouldn’t even be here tonight. I’d be at the club, sitting in our VIP section, drinking beer and bullshitting with the guys. We make it outside to less of a crowd and I toss her arm as if she burned me. I rip the bow tie off, and unbutton my shirt. The panic slowly washes away and I can breathe again.
“So, we’re meeting the guys to celebrate?” Dolly asks, as I walk over to the waiting driver. She places her hand on my arm and flutters her lashes, “Because I thought maybe we could have a celebration. Just us two,” she finishes in a sultry voice, biting her lower lip. A flash catches my eye and I spot two paps taking our photo. I shake my head with a low chuckle. She almost fooled me, should have known it was for show. “Get in the car Dolly,” I softly growl so only she can hear. Her eyes brighten with excitement and she rushes through the door onto the seat. I follow, then move over to the other bench seat. She gives me a look of confusion and I smirk. The driver gets in and the car starts a slow crawl, as other press take our photos through the windows, or try to, but the tint is too dark. I knock on the partition since Dolly is near the button, and Gerry lowers it. “Did you grab what I asked for?” He nods and hands me a small duffle bag, through the window, keeping his eyes on the road the whole time. I take it gratefully and sigh with relief. “Thank you man.” He gives me a nod then places the window back up. Dolly leans closer to see what's in the bag, but I ignore her. Opening the zipper, I remove my change of clothes. I rip the rest of my clothes off and shove it into the bag, not caring it cost more than a car back home. I pull up my worn blue jeans, and wrap my belt around my waist, before slipping a flannel over the white tank I had on under my dress shirt. “So you are going out then.” Dolly scoffs with a roll of her eyes. I nod and put my boots on. “Yep,” I reply, not giving her any more information.
I shoot my boys a text letting them know I’m on the way, and they send me a pic of Alex snorting coke and Mikey getting a lap dance from a hot-as-fuck blonde in a string bikini. I take a closer look and pause. She looks too similar to my shortcake. I wonder how Cara is? I’ll have to give her a call this week. Check in. I miss her and her sassy attitude. I pull up her Insta feed and groan.Seriously, why does she have guys surrounding her lately?I scroll a few pics down until one of us pops us. It’s from her eighteenth birthday, right before I left for Nashville. She’s sitting on my shoulders in the lake, playing chicken with Sam and Lee. A grin hits my lips and Dolly huffs. I hit the home button and search my name, afraid of what will pop up. Immediately photos of Dolly and I together swarm the page. Fucking vultures. I toss my phone in my bag and look out the window the rest of the ride.

We pull up to the club, and I wait for the driver to open the door. Do I need him to? Hell no, I’m fully capable, but appearances are everything these days. I slide out and grab my cowboy hat. Dolly follows, looking out of place in her gown and heels. “You should just go home Dolly,” I tell her again, but she rolls her eyes, shoving me aside and struts into the building as if it’s a runway walk. I grab a beer at the bar, then start up the stairs to the second level where my boys are. The bass isn’t as loud up here and it has a more laid back chill vibe. Dolly is on her knees, snorting a line, beside Alex.Great, I'll have to keep an eye on two coked up idiots tonight.She tips her head back with a look of bliss and gently wipes her nose. She catches my eye and jumps to her feet, running my way. She trips in her heels and lands against my chest.
“I hate when we fight, baby. I just want you to like me,” she says, before her shoulders start to shake. Is she crying? “Why don’t you like me?”
How much coke did she do? I was only gone for maybe ten minutes. I glance at Mikey over her head, but he’s not paying attention. The blonde is now bobbing her head up and down on his dick. I watch for a moment, imagining it’s Cara doing that to me. She pops up, licks the tip giving him a smile, before glancing my way and shooting me a wink.
“What are you staring at?” Dolly snaps, pulling me from my imagination. I glance down at the woman in front of me and give her a smirk, then shrug. She backs away from me and I take another swig of my beer. I notice Dolly watching my bottle with hungry eyes. “Bar’s over there,” I tell her, nodding my head in the direction of the private bar we have up here. Her eyes snap to mine and they bulge. “No, I'm okay,” she says, then rushes away to sit beside Mikey, not caring that he’s choking the girl on his dick. She keeps her eyes on me and a tingle of warning runs down my spine. I finish my beer and take a seat next to Alex who is coked out of his mind. I relax back and look at the strobe light reflecting off the chrome tables. Wow, that's amazing. I never noticed them before. They look like a rainbow exploded and landed in perfect dots. Alex moves closer to me and lays his head on my shoulder. His hair brushes the scruff on my chin and I shudder, with a low moan escaping my lips.What the fuck!Why does that feel incredible? He places his hand on my thigh and moves it up my leg. My dick hardens and I groan. Dolly stumbles over to us, straddling my lap. I lean back and she kisses me hard, grinding down on me.What is happening right now?I pull my mouth away and go to push her off, but she places the rest of my beer to my lips, tipping it so I have no choice but to drink it. I chug it down as she kisses my neck.Holy fuck, that feels amazing.I thrust my hips up, making her grind harder. I glance at Alex, his eyes are full of lust, watching us. I grab his hand from my thigh and place it on her ass. His eyes widen, but he does what I tell him. The bottle crashes to the floor and I grab Dolly’s neck, pulling her mouth back on mine. She kisses me a moment, then pulls away, quickly standing on shaky legs. Bending forward she offers me her hand.
“Let’s dance,” she says, pulling Alex from the couch. I lean back and stare at the ceiling.
I blink a few times then stand. Alex and Dolly have moved downstairs to the people grinding on each other. I shake my head and hold the railing. Something doesn’t feel right. I reach the bottom and people start to rub against me. The lights above glow as if floating on their own. I stand in the middle of the floor, letting them grope me. “There you are,” Dolly says, wrapping her arms around my neck. She places her body against mine, grinding hard. “Oh my god,” I groan into her neck. She giggles and moves her hands from my neck to my ass. “Do you like that baby?” she whispers, giving them a squeeze. Fuck. She’s about to make me come.
Alex moves up behind Dolly and grabs her hips pulling her against him, he looks at me over her shoulder and I nod. Spinning her he takes her lips with his. I move closer, grinding my dick against her bare ass. She whimpers and I smirk, leaning down to her ear I growl, “You like that, don’t you? Such a little slut. Getting wet for another man, while the guy you're controlling is behind you.” She nods and reaches behind her to palm my dick, giving it a hard squeeze.Fuck this. I pull her from Alex and drag her through the crowd to a dark, hidden corner, Alex follows, but I don’t even care. She wants to act like a slut, I’ll treat her like one. I lean against the cold brick and shudder as the texture rubs against my skin. Dolly stands in front of me, but not for long. She tries to kiss me, but I grab her shoulder and shove her to her knees. She whimpers as her knees hit the cement. Music to my ears. I grab the back of her head, pulling her fancy hair apart. Her small hands move to my belt buckle and undo it, before unbuttoning my jeans and pulling the zipper down. Alex stands behind her blocking us from the others, but at this point I don’t care if everyone sees just what America’s Sweetheart is doing. She pulls my dick out and gives it a small lick, but that's not going to fly. I jam it in her throat andfuc—k!Stars. I see literal stars explode around her head.What is going on?A groan erupts from my mouth and Alex moves closer. I pull her head back letting her breathe, then push her back down. He moves against me, rubbing his arm along mine, only heightening the pleasure. Turning to face me, he moves his hand to where my hand holds her hair tight. He rips her head off, then shoves her back down. I whimper and bite my lip, closing my eyes, but they pop back open when rough lips touch mine. I gasp and untangle my fingers from Dolly’s now messy hair. Alex licks my bottom lip and I push him away, or try to.When did he get so strong?I twist my face away and he kisses down my neck. This is so wrong, but it feels incredible. Moving away from me, he glances down at Dolly, before moving behind her. Keeping his glassy eyes on mine, he grabs her hair harder than I did and presses her down all the way to the hilt. She gags and gasps, making her throat tighter. My knees shake, and I’m right on the edge. He moves back for my mouth, but I hold my hand up to keep him away. “Don’t stop,” he snarls at Dolly, making her tremble and nod yes. Eyes back on mine he smirks, before grabbing my wrists in his and slamming them against the brick. Dolly swallows around me, and I can’t control the words coming from my lips. Alex moves closer and brushes his chest against mine. The sensation is almost too much. He goes for my mouth again, but I turn my head away. Letting go of one of my wrists, he wraps his large, rough hand around my throat, gripping my chin tight. Pressing his lips on mine so hard I have no choice but to let his tongue roam around mine. I’ve never kissed a guy before, have never wanted to, but the feel of his lips against mine, and the wet of his tongue makes me explode down Dolly’s throat. I pant into Alex’s mouth as she pops off my dripping dick, licking it like a lollipop. I whimper and he smiles against my mouth. Pulling away he grabs Dolly around the waist. “My turn.”
She giggles and glances my way. The lights around her head make her look like she has a halo. I laugh to myself. She’s far from an angel. I close my eyes and lean against the wall. When I open them again Alex is throwing my ass into the limo, before slamming the door and attacking Dolly’s lips.
What the fuck is going on?I shake my head and smack my cheek to wake up, but all it does is make me moan. The car starts to move and the vibrations make me want to get naked and rub my skin against the leather. Alex shoves Dolly away, then moves over to me. I watch him with hesitant eyes. “Do you know how long I have wanted to kiss you? To shut you up for once and dominate your mouth. Especially when you growl into a microphone … ” He trails off, shuddering, moving his palm up my thigh. I never knew he was into guys. He presses his lips on my neck while Dolly does something on her phone. She has lust filled eyes and keeps rubbing her thighs together. I bite my lip and groan when Alex takes my earlobe in his teeth. Dolly moves closer, straddling me as Alex unzips my jeans, pulling me from my pants. I’m hard as a rock and find her dripping hole with no help. He moves to my mouth, and at this point I just don’t care. The sensations flooding my system are lowering my inhibitions, or maybe it was the alcohol, but I don’t think I drank that much. Dolly bounces on my dick and Alex moves behind her kneeling on the limo floor. She lifts up and tugs down my jeans to my ankles, but they get caught on my boots and she huffs in frustration. Gripping my shoulders, she positions herself on my lap once more, glancing over her shoulder at something. She bites her lip and moans loudly, running her hands up into her hair, she bounces on my cock once more. I grip her hips tight and lean back, resting my head against the leather headrest. She can do whatever she wants as long as I get to finish in the end. A wet tongue brushes against my balls and Dolly moans louder, clenching me so tight.What the fuck. It moves up my shaft, licking the juices Dolly is dripping down my thighs. The leather seats creak and start to become slippery. I release Dolly’s hips and grip the edge of the seat pushing off and jackhammering into her from below. She gets louder and I know she's close. Alex grabs a handful of her ass, pulling her from my dick, putting her pussy in his mouth. He devours her and she collapses against me, clawing my chest. He pulls her back on my cock and I shudder when his tongue continues to lick her. I am so fucking close. He smacks her ass and tugs my balls hard, making me shoot off like a rocket.Fuck. He lifts her up and lets my cum leak out, dripping all over my spent dick. He moves forward and eats her out again as I pass out thinking.Shit. I’m not wearing a condom.
I wake up in my bed with Dolly wrapped around me, naked, and Alex passed out on my other side.What the fuck happened last night?My phone buzzes again, telling me that's what woke me. I ignore it and lie back down. My head is throbbing and my stomach is in knots. How much did I drink last night? The front door slams open and a pissed off Gem comes storming into my room. She takes one look at all of us and screams, “Are you a fucking idiot!” At the top of her lungs. Alex jots awake, elbowing me in the bottom lip. “Fuck.” I roar, tasting the blood. He glances my way and leans forward, pressing a soft kiss on the split. I pull away and look at him in horror. His eyes go from sorrow to hurt. He moves from the bed, grabs some of my sweats I left on the floor and rushes from the room. “Don’t think about leaving Alex. We will be having words as well,” Gem snaps as he shoves past her. I push Dolly away and sit up, just to fall back down. “Fuck my head hurts,” I say aloud and Gem snorts before raising her voice. “Oh I’m so sorry to intrude, but I thought maybe a heads up was in order, since your sex tape went viral before Ron could get it removed.”Wait. What?
Dolly snaps at Gem to shut the fuck up and rolls off the bed, moving to the shower.
“Get dressed Memphis. We need to talk,” Gem tells me, before walking out and slamming the door behind her. I touch my lip and wince as Dolly comes back out of the bathroom. “God she can be such a bitch sometimes,” she says before moving to kiss me. I push her away and jump from the bed. “Start talking Dolly. What the fuck happened last night? What sex tape?”
Her eyes bug and her face pales. “We went to the club. Had some drinks, then some fun. We moved it to the limo so people wouldn’t see. I don’t know about a sex tape,” she whispers, before rushing to the bathroom to throw up. My phone buzzes again and I grab my phone. The caller ID shows Mom. Now I feel sick. I look to the ceiling and pray,Please God, don’t tell me my mother saw it.

Carson
Today was horrible. Everyone kept shoving into me or smacking my butt. Finally someone took pity on me and pulled me aside to show me the note taped to my back, ‘I like it rough. Shove me or smack me, you choose!’
Like seriously, who would do that and are they ten? Isn’t that something that happens in middle school, not college. Especially a prestigious one like this? It started off so good, well besides all the glaring from my professor. I get to my dorm and dig for my key but can’t locate it. “Seriously, anything else?” I mutter aloud and bang my head on the door. A moment later it swings open and I fall face first, landing on Sassy’s feet.
“Cara, holy shit girl. What are you doing?” she says, trying to hide her laughter. I roll over and swing my knees up to shut the door with my feet. Once the door is shut I lie there for a few minutes just staring at the ceiling and praying to a God I don’t know even hears me.
“Hey. What happened?” Sassy says softly, sitting beside me. I glance her way and bite my lips as tears fill my eyes. “Have you ever just had a really bad day when you start to question everything? If you should just pack it in and go home? Today’s been like that, Sassy. Hell, this whole experience has been like that.” I wipe my eyes and cringe at the black smudge that smears on my fingers. I really need to invest in some waterproof makeup. I slowly sit up and lean on her shoulder. She is seriously so short I have to bend my back. Fingers run through my messy hair and I sigh, “That feels nice.” We’re quiet for a few minutes then she speaks.
“Cara I’m a lesbian in a well-known respectable family. I stayed in the closet as long as I could. My ex best friend outed me to everyone, and I thought my world was going to end. Not only did my parents freak out, it happened at a charity event where basically the whole town was in attendance. I don’t know what happened today to dull your spirit, but I do know that things get better. I can’t tell you what to do, but I really hope you don’t decide to leave. You worked hard to get here and you deserve it.” She kisses my forehead, then shoves me off.
“Okay enough mushy shit. How about I break open that tequila that you refuse to partake in and order us some food.” I give her a nod yes and wipe my eyes again.
“Oh, also, babe, you have nothing on a raccoon right now.” I snort and she wiggles her finger in a circle pointing to my face. She stands and offers to help me up. I give her a look and laugh. “Just because I’m small does not mean I can’t lift your ass from the floor.”
I roll my eyes and she helps me up, giving me a ‘see, told ya’ look. I pull her into my arms and she laughs, before nuzzling my chest. I glance down and her height has her face sitting perfectly in my cleavage. I burst out in chuckles and she groans, “Why are they so soft and squishy.” I give her a gentle shove and she avoids my eyes, but I catch the blush on her face. “I’m just gonna order that food,” she mutters before shuffling to her room. I shake my head, watching her leave. She can be ridiculous but I’m glad to have her in my life. I move over to the bathroom and grab a makeup wipe. My reflection in the mirror makes me pause. My eyes are glassy and bloodshot, but I still look just like her. I close my eyes and take a deep breath.You can do this Cara. For her. It’s only the first day. Tomorrow will be better.I open my eyes and smile. Tossing the wipe in the trash, I turn and walk to the kitchen. I pull out some snacks and a few glasses and dig in the fridge for some juice. We really need to go shopping. Sassy had a grocery delivery service bring us a few ‘essentials’. Ha, more like junk food and coffee. I find a bottle of pineapple juice on the bottom shelf and pull it out. Someone coughs and I immediately straighten, turning to set it on the counter. I glance in that direction and pause. East is standing there with his thumb resting on his bottom lip, eyes frozen where I was just bent over. My cheeks heat and I look to the floor. “What are you doing here?” I whisper. He coughs again, and I glance his way. His face is pink and he won’t meet my eyes.
“Your roommate let me in. I thought maybe we could get a jump on our assignment. I also wanted to apologize for how I blew you off earlier.” He finally lifts his gaze and shuffles closer to me. “Can we start over? I’d like to get to know the southern belle that walked into my heart.”
Um what?I think I nod. I’m not sure. I’m in a daze at that.
