kiss you?” she asked incredulously, then pouted in disappointment.
I shook my head. “He…He pushed some hair out of my face,” I offered, trying to cheer her up.
She shot a confused look over at the band’s table. I followed her eyes, noticing that Stone had just sat down and Briar was waving us over.
“Maybe he was waiting for you to do something,” she said slowly.
“Like what?” I asked, frowning in confusion, “What was I supposed to do? Why did he even come to my room?”
Candy pulled a face at me. “Duh, he likes you,” she said, getting up from her seat and walking towards their table. I hurried after her.
“You mean…he wants to have sex with me?” I whispered frantically, not sure how to react.
Candy rolled her eyes at me. “It’s so obvious he wants you,” she answered, “Jeez girl, are you blind?”
I didn’t answer for a few moments, shocked by this revelation, unsure as to whether or not I believed it. Candy stopped short and turned to look me over, a serious expression on her face.
“Are you nervous?” she asked, “Do you want to have sex with him?”
I opened my mouth, but didn’t know how to answer that question.
Her brow creased, “It’s alright to be nervous about your first time. That’s probably why he didn’t make a move. But I think…that if you want him, you should just go for it.”
She turned and started walking again. I followed after her, still feeling a little dazed. She came to a stop and I blurted out the first thing that came to mind, “But…I’m not a virgin.”
Candy coughed on a surprised laugh and nudged my side hard. I looked around and noticed we’d arrived at the table…and everyone was staring at me.
Oh crap.
Donny laughed and looked between Candy and me. “What have you naughty girls been talking about?” he asked, wiggling his eyebrows.
Duh, sex! I thought.
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” Candy purred.
“Yes. Yes, I would,” Donny answered, his eyes dropping to her chest.
“Too bad,” Candy replied, sitting down in an empty seat and dragging me down with her, “It was a private conversation.”
Donny turned to look at me with a sexy smirk, “You’ll tell me won’t you, Evie-baby?”
I looked down at my empty tray and bit my lip.
“Drop it Donny,” Fredi hissed, elbowing him in the side.
“Fine,” he grumbled.
I shifted awkwardly in my seat and chanced a glance at Stone, wondering if he’d behave any differently toward me. He didn’t. He didn’t even look at me. I swallowed nervously.
Had I angered him? Disappointed him? Had he just needed somewhere to crash last night?
Alec glanced down at my empty tray and raised an eyebrow. “You not eating, Evie?”
I felt Stone look over at me, but I was too nervous to look back at him. “Um, I’ll go get something now,” I murmured, gladly getting up from the table and walking towards the line.
When I got back, it was suspiciously quiet and both Candy and Stone were looking annoyed. I swallowed anxiously as I slowly sat down. I had a bad feeling they’d been talking about me and my ‘not a virgin’ comment. Briar smiled at me and opened her mouth to say something, but the shrill ring of my mobile cut off her attempt to break the silence. With shaking hands, I tried to ignore the many eyes fixed on me as I reached into my bag and retrieved my phone. I closed my eyes and groaned at the name on the screen. Without opening my eyes, I pressed the talk button and brought the phone to my ear.
“Hi Mum,” I muttered.
Candy smothered a laugh from beside me, having witnessed several of my mother’s calls before.
“Evelyn!” my mother shouted happily and I winced from the volume. I heard a few more chuckles and gathered that the rest of the group had heard her too.
“How’s my baby girl?”
“I’m fine,” I whispered, “But
