Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 : Rats and Roaches

" Yes little fish cake , you're in my room " as the words left his devilish lips confirming her dismay . Julie's body suddenly lost strength and so she ended up leaning on the railings for support which didn't seem comforting .

" What ? no this can't be possible ' she questioned back with a worrisome face , " Tell me something ! did_we....do_ ? ' Julie asked while moving her hands sideways as if giving him a hint but he seemed hint less by the look of his void facial expressions .

" Do what exactly ? " he asked with an innocent tilt of his head , that made Julie want to choke on her words but then he replied . " It wasn't that good ! you were beat pretty bad " he replied with a sigh .

" So you mean I wasn't good at it and I was_beat" Julie misunderstood his words and Drew knew that she had but he decided to tease her .

" You weren't that interesting when you were unconscious but nevertheless I tried my best to help you with your pain and the uncomfortableness " He added with a thoughtful look .

Julie face reddened with embarrassment and shame before she asked . "My pain ! what kind of pain ? ' Biting his lower lip to hide his grin he replied ' You forgot all about it " .

He said and Julie could almost see a look of disappointment in his eyes but she ignored it . She was confused .

'How could this have this happened.. I didn't drink anything intoxicating so how could this be and I remember being_ in the hall when_' Julie tried to remember what had happened and slowly the bitter memories came flashing back in her eyes in waves . Tears were quick to fill her eyes and flow down her cheeks like the black falls in arcadia .

" Why ! why me ? " she whispered to herself clutching her aching heart on her shirt .

Drew suddenly became still as he stared down at her he felt a pull in his heart , feeling baffled by the pull he stepped out of the room . Also confused

Feeling that she had cried enough she blinked and wiped her tears away with the back of her sleeve . " Huh ! Where is he , how am I gonna go back to my dorm without being noticed now ? " she grumbled in frustration as she made her way inside

After snooping around the spacious and grand room she successfully found the bathroom that was located inside the dorm room to her surprise . Stepping inside the marble floored bathroom her eyes twinkled in amazement and eagerness . Curious to explore more .

The bathroom was marbled smooth and clean to the touch , you could literally see your reflection on the wall and floors .

Julie ran her her fingers on the surface of a mirror that had her rough reflection , ' let me take a bath first then I'll figure out a way to get out of here unnoticed' .

Julie nodded to herself agreeing with her thoughts , making sure that the door was locked only to avoid unnecessary embarrassment and awkward moments .

Filling the bathtub with precise warm water she took off her cloths and safely kept them on a small stool beside the tub .

Getting in the tub she winced and clenched her fists feeling her wounds come into contact with the warm water . She had known before hand that the wounds on her body would definitely hurt so but still got in the tub .

After a while she held the front door of the room click open , ' Is he back ? ' Julie asked herself after wrapping herself with a clean white towel she had taken from the closet earlier before and had hang it on the wall .

She made her way to the door and peeked her head out looking for him but he was nowhere to be found . When she was sure that he wasn't in the room she stepped out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel her her brown hair still wet and damp that had turned darker .

She walked towards the bed were there was a small paper bag on it , she let her curiosity get the better of her self worth and opened the small bag .

There was a light blue dress full sleeved and at the end of the sleeves there were two designed bows .

The dress had flower patterns sawn in gold shining threads . It's embroidery almost the same as the ones found on the stockings she had worn earlier .

The fabric was soft to the touch and simple , having taken it out and she put it a side neatly . She took out a pair of white and blue stripped sneakers that looked expensive and cleaner than the ones she had ever owned .

Putting them aside she took out a few girly stuff ,but when she was about to look for other things but a forced cough behind her interrupted and stopped her attempt .

Cold sweat formed on her forehead , face filled with dread and secretly scolding herself for being so nosy , she turned around her head hung low awaiting her doom .

'Until today I thought only rats and roaches loved snooping around and disturbing people's lives and things....but now am guessing I was wrong cause here you are going through my stuff ! ' he sighed and stared at Julie with his head tilted to the side .

' Hey am not a rat or a roach and I was not snooping around I was.....you know walking around and then I saw this bag on the floor so I picked it up and was placing this uumh ! things of yours inside ' she protested innocently with a small pout on her lips .

Drew's eyes slightly glanced at her pouting lips before quickly looking away .

' Take those things and put them on then I'll take you back to your dorm ' he quickly uttered and stepped on the balcony with another thin cigar .

' Where did he get all this ! I don't think I saw any stores on my way to this academy ! I wonder if all the boys dorm rooms have an inside bathroom and this extravagance setting ' Julie wondered in her mind forgetting that she was only wearing a towel that slipped off just when Drew had stepped inside the room__ Drew " ..... " and Julie ^_ _ ^°

.....A while later.....Julie came out dressed up
