Uninvited Attraction

As I watched Logan approaching us, I realized that I was happy to see him. Even the sight of him sent shivers and tingles all over my body. I almost forgot how gorgeous he was.

Tonight, he was wearing a blue shirt and dark blue jeans with white Adidas sneakers. His hair had become a little longer and was a mess, as if he had run his hands through it too many times.

He stopped right before Rob and me with his hands in his pockets. Suddenly, Rob hugged me by my waist and pulled me closer. Why was he acting like an overprotective bodyguard?

“Becca, I need your help. Can you come with me back to the fraternity house?”

“Hey, Jones. I admire you on the field, but you’re talking to my girlfriend without even acknowledging me. So, maybe you can back off? We were in the middle of something if you hadn’t noticed.” Rob tightened his grip. Was he jealous?

Logan sighed but looked him straight in the eyes.

“Hey, dude. I don’t know your name, but I advise you to get lost. I have a bigger problem on my mind right now, and I don’t have the time or desire to talk to you a second longer than I need.” Logan’s gaze returned to me. He looked sad, I could tell.

“Becca, please. It’s Lily. And Kate. They’re both so drunk, and Melanie… Shit—”

“I will go with you,” I interrupted him, mostly because I would do anything for Kate and Lily. They were too important to me. The second reason why I didn’t let him finish was Melanie. I saw the bitch in the hallways, and she always gave me a hard look or a glare. I wasn’t interested in her doings at all.

I turned to Rob, and his hands dropped from my waist. The confusion was written all over his face. I kissed his cheek, whispered not to worry, and followed Logan to his car.

It was the black Range Rover. I had never asked about his car and hadn’t seen him driving. So I was a little in awe.

He opened the door for me, and after I was inside, he walked around and climbed into the driver’s seat. I started to feel anxious at how very serious Logan was. What had happened at this party?

“So, is that guy the reason why you weren’t around? I visited Lil a few times, but you were never there.”

“Mostly.” I lied.

“Okay.”

We fell silent, but it wasn’t uncomfortable. Soon, he parked the car by the fraternity house’s back door. There was loud music and people were on the front lawn; some were lounging near the pool in the back.

Logan was the first to exit the car and came to my side. As he fixed his gaze on me, I noticed his eyes widen. He quickly went to open the back door and retrieved something from the back seat. He handed me his bomber jacket.

I raised my eyebrows in surprise.

“Ugh... Logan, why do I need your jacket?”

“Because I don’t think you'll be comfortable with every guy in this house staring at you.”

I followed his gaze and cursed. I had forgotten that I wasn't wearing a bra, and now my full breasts were on display. I quickly grabbed his jacket and put it on. Logan was smiling.

“Not that I didn't enjoy the view, though.” He extended his hand to me. I ignored it, jumped out of his car, and stood before him with my arms crossed.

“Don't. I'm only here because of Lily and Kate. If it weren't for them, this would be the last place on earth where I'd want to be.”

Logan's smile faded away. He nodded at me and started walking into the house. I followed him and entered the kitchen.

We walked through the hallway, straight to the room where I had first met Logan. In an instant, I spotted Kate. She was sleeping on the couch.

There was a guy sitting beside her, and I recognized him as Tim Wallace. But where was Lily?

“Drew took her to your room.” Tim’s voice was so calm that I relaxed a little.

“And Lily?” Logan asked.

“I was talking about your sister.”

“And Melanie?”

“I don’t have any idea. She was cursing like crazy, especially after you’d left the house for this girl.” Tim turned to me and smiled. “I am Tim, by the way.”

“Fuck!”

“Nice to meet you, Tim. I am Becca.” Pointing at Logan, I asked Tim, “Where is his room? I will go and look after Lily.”

“Second floor, the last door on the right.” Tim smiled and waved at me as I started to leave.

“Wait, Becca…” Logan stood, rooted to his place.

“What? You can go. I will make sure that Lily is okay. I can ask Tim or Drew to help me take her and Kate to our dormitory, or maybe I will call a taxi.”

“I could drive you there.”

“Don’t. You should go and find your girlfriend. I don’t know what has happened here, and honestly, I don’t want to. Didn’t you come to me for my help? Now, you can go and deal with your issues. I will manage here.”

I walked out of the room, and he didn’t follow me. Good to know where his priorities were. I reached the second floor and now stared at the door to Logan’s room. Of course, I knew where it was.

My memories of our moment started to flood my mind. I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. I exhaled deeply and entered the room.

“So, you were his backup plan?” I heard Drew’s voice. Lily was asleep on Logan’s bed, and Drew sat on the floor, leaning his back against the bed.

“I guess so. How long has she been sleeping?”

“Thirty minutes, I guess.”

“Can you drive?” I looked him up and down. He didn’t seem drunk to me.

“Yes. What about Logan?”

“He left to find Melanie. Will you help me bring Lily and Kate back to the dorm?”

“Fucking idiot!” Drew cursed under his breath and stood up. “Let’s go.”

He quickly lifted Lily from the bed and walked downstairs with her in his arms. He loaded her into his Lexus, and then Tim brought Kate to the car.

Both girls continued to sleep soundly in the backseat while I sat in the front. We took off from the fraternity house. Tim didn’t come with us. Drew was silent, and I was grateful for that.

This night became even weirder than I thought, though. Once the car was parked at the dormitory, Drew took Lily to our room first and then, as I had instructed, brought Kate there as well.

Now he and I were standing and looking at them. They both slept peacefully as if they had never even been moved from one place to another.

“Where are you going to sleep? I thought this was yours and Lily’s room, but you said to bring your friend here too.”

“I will move Kate. It’s my bed. We are used to sleeping together.”

“Have you fooled around with her? I could easily see it, two hot girls in one bed.” Drew looked at me with a mischievous smile on his lips.

“As if I’m going to tell you.” I smiled back at him.

“So I think I hit the nail on the head. Mind if I join you?”

“Are you kidding? I don’t like to share.” I was teasing him, but I could tell that the atmosphere in the room changed in a flash.

“You’re beautiful. You know that, right? Your face in combination with your body? Damn! I can totally see why Logan is so interested in you.”
