Suppressed (Suppressed Saga) Read Free

while when I needed it, but other than that I just walked the city.
     
    Lowell house wasn’t too far from our dorm so we walked. Two girls who went to school with us, Rachel and Beth, met up with us while we were on our way. They started gibbering away as usual. Rachel had dark auburn hair and was exceedingly tan, it looked a little orange though, I guess this was because of the color of her hair and the many freckles she had. Beth had shoulder length bleach blonde hair that looked almost white and her skin was fair which made her seem washed out. She almost reminded me of a baby doll, especially with her bright red lips.
     
    I stared off into the trees that lined the pathway and paid no attention to anything they were talking about. I was in my own thoughts when Callie ran up beside me in her deep red dress.
     
    “ Hey chick.” She said with a laugh.
     
    “ Hey.”
     
    I felt her elbow tap mine. “I like your dress you look very sexy tonight.”
     
    “ I like yours too.” I told her.
     
    Callie wasn’t so bad. Sometimes she could be a little annoying and touchy but she wasn’t as fake as Beth and Rachel. She had brown hair and wasn’t as thin as me but she wasn’t fat either.
     
    “ There’s my girl!” A voice shouted from the house.
     
    There was a load of people standing outside but the voice belonged to Beth’s boyfriend Jack. He was a little weird in my opinion.
     
    Beth let out a squeal before running over to him.
     
    “ That’s a dream couple for you.” Callie said in my ear. I snickered to myself as I went up the front steps and my ears started pounding against the loud music.
     
    “ Come take a shot with me.” Callie said pulling my hand.
     
    I reluctantly followed her to the make shift bar. My brother’s friend Brad gave me and Callie a shot of tequila and I took it without blinking. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see Lance behind me. He poked me in the side as I sucked on my lime and threw the wedge at him.
     
    He held up three fingers to Brad and he gave us each another shot. After taking it I slammed my glass on the bar and turned to him.
     
    “ Are you trying to get me drunk little bro?”
     
    “ Nah,” he waved his hand at me and turned to a friend of his that walked by. Callie was talking with Brad and I was getting ready to walk away when Ashley pulled at my arm.
     
    “ Come dance with me.” She squealed.
     
    “ You know I don’t dance.” I told her. If I was drunk enough I might but right now I wasn’t about to go out there and make a fool of myself.
     
    Her eyes traveled behind me and widened instantaneously. “Oh my God, Cam, that guy from the crosswalk is standing right over there.”
     
    “ Huh?”
     
    “ The guy, the amazingly hot one.” She grabbed my arm again and spun me around.
     
    My eyes searched for a second and then found him. He was leaned against a wall on the far side of the room with a beer in his hand. Several girls were standing by him talking him up, obviously trying to fight for his attention. He had on faded jeans and a black button up with the sleeves rolled up to just below his elbow. Even though he was in mid conversation he looked away and his eyes moved slowly to mine. It was like he knew I was watching him.
     
    I drew my eyes away and turned back around to Ashley with a laugh. “Yeah, see, he’s a player. He’s got five girls standing around him begging to be the one he takes home.”
     
    “ Who are you talking about?” Lance butted in.
     
    “ That guy back there. We saw him today and he was giving Cam the eyes.” Ashley said filling him in a little too much.
     
    “ That’s Eric.” He said pointedly.
     
    “ That’s the new guy?”
     
    “ Yeah, you want me to introduce you?” He was using the same tone he had at lunch.
     
    I grabbed Ashley’s hand, “Oh no, you are not going to talk to him. I told you I have a feeling he’s nothing but a jerk.”
     
    I started to drag her away from Lance’s
