The bottle head stopped right in front of me and there was no denying it. Justin rubbed his palms together and didn't even waste a second before asking his question.
"Do you have a crush on someone?" everyone paid attention and they were surprisingly very quiet.
"I..." I thought about it but the only person in my mind was Gerard. Maybe this was because we were technically married but that is not something you just say in front of students in their early twenties.
"I have a boyfriend and he's my crush... If that makes sense." I was very casual and relaxed when I said this but the whole crowd went wild.
"Woah..."
"Too bad for all the guys here."
What I said was somehow true. I did have a close male and I obviously had a crush on Gerard even though I tried to deny it multiple times.
Everyone laughed it off and I spun the bottle as expected but... what the hell? It stopped right in front of me as if luck wasn't on my side today.
"Woah..."
"I don't think luck is on your side today Ayla." the guy that initiated the game laughed.
Because I was the one who spun the bottle and it stopped in front of me, someone else would have to ask the question.
"Okay, I've got one." a girl immediately chipped in.
"Who is your boyfriend? I mean, his name." this was a very direct question but I really didn't know if anyone knew who Gerard was and if this would lead to something else so I ignored the question and to everyone's surprise, I gulped down the alcohol.
"Is it that bad?" she asked with her mouth in a pout and all I could do was chuckle.
Since she asked the question, she had to spin the bottle next. She spun and it stopped in front of a guy who had been silent throughout the game. He looked hottie and probably could be referred to as the school's most famous guy because of his attitude and his looks. He wasn't only handsome but was also very intelligent.
"Yeah... It's Eric's turn." they were all happy and she cleared her throat ready to ask her question.
"Hmm... Not much is known about you but I think I have one question." she hesitated a little before dropping the question.
"You are pretty much the ladies man but no one knows who your girlfriend is. Do you have one or maybe someone you like?" she was so anxious to hear his answer and so was everyone else.
Eric's eyes fell on someone in the crowd but it was only for a split second. He took the alcohol in front of him and gulped it down unable to say who he had always loved.
"Ah..." they were all not satisfied because they wanted to know so badly what his answer was but he didn't give any.
"Not fair. If we all keep drinking alcohol, the game wouldn't be fun you know..." she lamented but that was the rule of the game and she couldn't change it.
The game went on for hours and surprisingly, I was having so much fun. The bottle did roll towards my direction once but I just gulped down the alcohol because they were sensitive questions and I'd rather keep a low profile than have the whole school know my name.
It was late in the afternoon when I realized I had been away from home for way too long and had to return immediately.
Kel offered to go with me just for security reasons and I agreed. Just then Eric offered to drop us off because Kel was a little bit tipsy as well.
I wasn't bothered by it because Kel was there with me and there was nothing that this college student could do that I couldn't handle.
We drove to the apartment and although I was a little tipsy, I still maintained my composure and acted sanely.
Before getting to the apartment, Kel was already asleep. She had only taken two shots of alcohol yet she could not handle the effects.
"You like her don't you?" I asked Eric who was focused on the steering.
I could see his brow raise in the rearview but he certainly couldn't deny it because I caught him staring at Kel the whole time.
"I don't know what you mean." was his response and I was expecting it.
"You don't need to deny it. It's not like I'm going to tell her." there was silence in the car and I sighed.
"You shouldn't lie to yourself and deny this fact, tell her before it's too late." it was just a bit of friendly advice and I didn't think too much of it.
"Oh... There, there's my stop." I stopped him and he pulled over. I thanked him after getting out of the car.

"Drive safe." I looked at Kel and he seemed to know what I meant. He nodded then drove away.
Somehow, I managed to get to the door and put in the passcode before going in. I stumbled in but was caught by someone who seemed to know that I was already back.
"Oh hi..." that was my greeting to Gerard and his face turned ice cold. He looked as though he wanted to burst out in anger but he never said anything.
"Why do you look like that? I didn't run off you know and I was only out with some friends." I pouted my lips seeing him mad for obvious reasons.
This was the second time I was leaving the house without informing him, the first was when I tried to run away.
Gerard said nothing and simply carried me catching me unaware. "Hey... What are you doing? I'm not drunk, I can walk on my own." I retorted but he didn't listen to me.
I must admit that my footsteps weren't stable and
the room was spinning but that didn't mean that I couldn't walk.

Gerard was mad at Ayla because after hours of sending the text, she didn't return home and she didn't even leave the address of where she was going and the name of the friend she was meeting up with.
Gerard grew worried because she barely went out and he didn't know who this friend was. After two hours, he called her mobile phone again but she wasn't answering the phone.
He paced around the room and hoped that she was safe. He could have easily tracked anyone down with their scent but he didn't know why he couldn't do the same with Ayla.
It was off and on. Sometimes he would be able to find her and other times, it would be impossible to know where she was even though he was a wolf and could find literally anything and anyone he was looking for.
Gerard recalled what happened this morning and hoped that he didn't piss her off which resulted in this sudden disappearance.
After more hours of waiting, he heard the door passcode sound and went straight to the door swiftly only to find Ayla drunk and barely on her feet.
She almost fell and he caught her. He was worried for her and he couldn't hide the expression on his face.
Not listening to anything she had to say, he took her to the room and placed her on the bed even though she insisted on walking.
Whist in the room, he carefully placed her on the bed and went to get some clean towels for her but she held him back and he turned wondering what happened but Ayla's face was in a pout almost as though she wanted to cry.
Worried that something might have happened when she was out, Gerard immediately sat right next to her and asked, "What happened? Did anyone offend you?"
Ayla bit her lower lips and nodded. She looked like a cute little kitten but her eyes were teary.
Gerard contained his anger and couldn't believe that someone hurt Ayla. He wanted to fight for her and make that person pay for putting her in this condition.
"Who was it?" he asked and his hand was already in a fist. He was trying his best to contain his anger but he could let anyone bully her because she was calm and fragile.
Ayla sniffed and her lips curved down. She pointed straight to Gerard as the culprit for hurting her and he was left dumbstruck.
Gerard was almost about to kill the person who made Ayla this way but seeing her point at him confused him.
He already had plans of how he would make the person pay but what will he do now that he turned out to be the culprit?
Ayla was so emotional but she bite her lips to avoid her tears from falling.
Gerard knew that he was not too welcoming in the morning but that was only because he wanted to protect her from what he was feeling at that moment and he never expected that she would feel this way in the end.
His fists loosened and he saw her helpless state but didn't know what to say.
"Ayla... I... I am sorry for what happened this morning." he wasn't the type to say sorry but he just had to say it to his precious Ayla.
She shook her head and retorted. "You don't get it, Gerard."
He looked at her confused and wondered if this was about him forcefully keeping her with him.
"I can't sleep without you, I can't stay a moment without thinking about you. Don't you get it? I think I have... I have...."
