Spring Break- from Hell. {Closed- Not accepting any more Players}

The door of her suite opened behind her. Lila turned around to be face-to face- with Jar. "Hey Bombs, she opened the door a little for me. She just wants the two of us to go in there, and I know it will be hard for you, but you can't talk and try to give advice, okay? Not unless she asks for it."

If it had been another situation, Lila would have laughed at how Jar knew how hard it would be for her to keep her mouth shut. She had a habit of not holding back anything: which was both beneficial and prejudicial in certain moments. But, of course, she'd do anything for one of her best friends: even if it meant trying her hardest to be quiet.

"Okay, JarBear, I promise I'll behave," she told him in a gentle voice. Delilah turned to Hunter, pointing a menacing finger at him. "Don't you dare come in here, you understand?" Without waiting for his reply, Lila turned around and went inside the condo, holding Jareth's hand. His touch made her feel calm and in control, something she'd been having trouble with for the best part of this night. Some party it was turning out to be...

Lila was crying when she suddenly felt herself being violently pushed aside. 'What the hell?!' she thought angrily. "Move Dammit!" she heard Hunter shout at her before he began kicking Adelisa's closed door. It shook, but didn't bulge open.

"What the hell are you doing, you creep?! How did you even get in here?!" Lila shouted back at him, getting up from the floor and trying her hardest to avoid gouging his eyes out. How dare he put a hand on her, much less shove her! Hunter simply kicked the door again, but apparently he'd lost all his energy because he keeled over with heavy breathing. He choked out, "Someone open the damn door!" before he started coughing again, turning his voice moved to a quiet mumble. "Please open the door..."

Then Jareth walked in, and Lila had just opened her mouth to whine to her boyfriend about how Hunter had pushed him when he said: "Seriously, dude, that is not going to help. Everyone needs to quiet down, please. And you need to go talk to the woman you gave your heart to. She's in pain too, and that is totally your fault. Maybe you should try telling her the truth for once." Lila could tell Jar was angry: the way he was so sharp reminded her of when he lost his temper during the fights they'd used to have. It was truly intimidating to hear him like that. "If you guys can just give me a few minutes alone with her, I can try to help her. Just, go be with Amelia."

It seemed Hunter got the unsaid message about Jar's temper, because he quieted down. Lila did so too, then looked at Jar with a questioning look. He nodded at her. "You can trust me with this. And Grant, I don't think she'll want you in the room, not right away." With that, Jar sat down on the floor and slid his right hand under the door.

Then Amelia arrived. Without looking around at anyone, she just stepped around Hunter and Jareth and softly knocked on the door. She put her ear up to the door and softly spoke, "Dela, unlock the door, okay? I'm going to come in. Just me. Okay? Please, Dela. I know you're hurting. I know you're scared. Remember what we promised? Remember we promised each other that through thick and thin we would always be there. Deal, I can't keep my promise unless you open the door. I won't let anyone else in. Just please, listen to my voice Dela. Listen to me, please."

Now that Amelia was in the room, Lila couldn't bear to have her hurting more because of Hunter's presence. She grabbed Hunter by his good arm and forcefully drove him out into the hall. "Come on, you little shit," Though he maybe had more strength than her, the combination of her anger with his pain made it easy enough for her to do this. Once there, she slapped him hard, her brown eyes dark with rage. "NEVER put a hand on me again, Hunter, or I swear to you I'll give you another story to tell about why you're in the hospital again. Do you understand me? Or do I need to give you a couple of more slaps?" She walked back to the suite and stood at the door, as if keeping guard.

When Delilah asked Amelia what she could do to help, her best friend's answer caught her by surprise. "Please check on Adelisa," Milli had said in a hoarse voice that broke Lila's heart. "Please, run." Lila should not have been surprised at Milli's demand; after all, she was known for caring a lot about others, even before herself sometimes. She had the sweetest, purest heart of everyone that Lila knew. It was painful to watch her be hurt this much.

Lila stood up. "Okay, love. If that's what you want. Please, Milli, don't forget that I love you with all my heart. You're special to me." She kissed Amelia's forehead and hurried back to her suite, but was stopped in her tracks at the sight of Jareth and Hunter in the hallway.

"What the hell happened to you?" Lila briskly asked Hunter in a tactless manner, raising her eyebrows at him. He looked terrible, all battered, bruised and looking like he'd just gone through hell. She looked at Jar for an explanation of what was going on, but the look on her boyfriend's face told her it was better to not interfere. Then came male shouts from her suite, and Lila ran to it, afraid of what she would find.

She found Grant visibly frantic, trying to open Adelisa's door. Delilah's blood began to boil, remembering the many times Dela had been reduced to shambles whenever Grant had been a jackass to her over being herself and after their break-up. The guy was as bitter and conceited as they came. Adelisa deserved much better. It was time to give Grant a piece of her mind.

Delilah walked up right to his face and crossed her arms. "Grant Reed, get the hell out of this suite before there's a murder charge under my belt. I swear to God, I'll do it. I'm not afraid of you, so preserve your health and walk away now while I'm still somewhat sane."

She waited until Grant left to knock on Adelisa's door, but soon found out it was in vain. The noise of her knocks wouldn't carry with the music being so loud. But she had to keep trying. "Dela? Dela, it's Lila. Please open the door for me." She then stood directly in front of the door, pressing her ear against it to see if she could hear past the music. No sound coming from Adelisa. Panic rose from Lila's stomach. She looked down, and noticed she was stepping on top of a couple of neatly-folded papers that seemed as if they had been pushed out from under the closed door. On a close inspection, Lila was horrified to find out they were letters; one addressed to everyone. After Lila had read the one with her name, her panic became laced with guilt. What she'd said had been a factor in whatever Dela was planning to do. Lila had to try and prevent whatever that was.

Delilah pounded her fist on the door, shaking with the blazing terror of losing one of her best friends. She began to shout desperately: "Dela, please don't do this! I'm sorry about what I said earlier! You're not a horrible person, and you should never feel ashamed of yourself! That was the anger speaking. You are so beautiful, love, so unique and special and a joy to be around. I'm proud to call you my best friend, and a sister! I swear it gets better! I beg you, Adelisa, please don't do it!" Lila fell on her knees, put her face in her hands and started to cry.

Why is all of this happening to us?

Hey @Meridian I'm curious: what time zone are you in?

Spring Break- from Hell. {Closed- Not accepting any more Players}

Delilah watched Jareth practically run to her, conscious of everyone's eyes on their little scene once again. She wrapped her arms around Jar when he'd reached her just as he put his hands on her cheeks and looked deep into her eyes. Her heart was beating loudly in her chest. “Bombs, I’m so sorry. I promise to sing to you every night if you’ll let me. I’d rather die at your very hand than spend another day without you in my life.”

Before she could even think of something to say, Jareth put her lips to hers and kissed her with the intensity of a Their lips met with the intensity of a nuclear bomb, and Lila saw fireworks in her closed eyelids, just like the first time they'd kissed. His lips tasted of peppermint and liquor, the best flavor in all the world, and he smelled of spices and all things manly. When their lips parted because of breathlessness, they realized people were cheering and clapping as if they’d just witnessed a marriage proposal. Jar looked at her and laughed nervously, and Lila simply blushed and smiled at him.

She knew he was waiting for a response, so Lila simply decided to quote a song. "Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems. Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano. All I know is that I love you too much to walk away now."

Their movie moment was interrupted by a drunk guy in the crowd yelling “Play Free Bird!” at Jareth. He looked at the guy and shrugged with a smile “I’m afraid I’ve never heard of it.”

Her arms still around him, she chuckled. "You little liar. You told me that was one of the first songs you ever learned..." Lila gave Jar a butterfly kiss. "Anyway, how about we make up the most of those two months we spent without each other, huh, JarBear?"

Jareth chuckled, took her waist and leaned into her ear. "That sounds like a deal, Bombs."

Holding hands, the couple walked around the sea of hot, sweaty people, trying to find a place to sit, and miraculously found one seat available at a circle of lounge chairs where people sat around a small fire. Lila smiled devilishly at Jareth, and he smiled back, completely in on what she was thinking. He sat on the lounge chair,leaned the guitar on the chair, and Lila sat on his lap. They began to kiss passionately as Lila straddled him, confirming that the fire that united them was still as blazing as it always had been. It was only when her lips hurt that Lila finally broke their kiss, shifting her position in the chair so that she was resting her head on Jar's shoulder while he softly stroked her hair. They were quiet for a few minutes, watching the flames and savoring the closeness in their own little, blissful world.

Lila looked up at Jar, stroking his handsome face. "I want to dance, love. Do you want to dance with me, baby? Or do you want us to go straight to my room to celebrate?"

Jareth thought about it for a moment, deeply tempted to run off to Lila's room to make up for two months of separation. He kissed her softly, then said: "We'll have the whole week to celebrate, so dancing the night away sounds like a plan."

They got up, and Jar's eyes fell on the guitar. He turned to Lila with his face slightly red. "Ummm, I think I should be giving this to Adelisa... It's her guitar, after all."

Lila burst out in laughter. "That's so cute. You win my heart back with a guitar that belongs to a rival band member. Classy."

Jar slung

The pair set out to blindly find Adelisa, and what they weren't prepared for was the scene they encountered as they entered the first bar on their way. The two of them were on plain sight, empty shot glasses surrounding them, sharing an intimate kiss... Hunter and Adelisa.

Lila's eyes widened and her mouth fell open in shock. Jar, on the other hand, ran a nervous hand through his hair while softly muttering "Shit." How could they do something like that? The day before, they both had been talking to their exes about how much they'd missed them and how sorry they were for hurting them. And, suddenly, alcohol made them do stupid stuff like fool around with the ex's best friend?! They'd both broken one of the friendship rules: YOU DO NOT, BY ANY CHANCE, GET INVOLVED IN THE LEAST WITH YOUR EX'S FRIENDS, EVER.

To make matters worse, Milli stumbled into the bar, very drunk herself. "Hunter, what the-" she began to say, but voice caught in her throat when she processed the the sight before her. With a heartbreaking expression, Amelia turned on her heel and staggered away, into the crowd and out of sight.

"Oh my God!" Lila burst out, a disgusted expression on her face directed at Hunter and Adelisa. "What the hell do you two think you're doing, betraying your friends like that? You two are horrible, and should feel ashamed of yourselves." Lila turned to Jareth, who was silent with shock. "I have to go after her, JarBear. She's like a sister to me, and I can't just leave her to do something dangerous to herself. I'll catch up with you later." She gave him a kiss. "I promise I'll make it up to you, boo."

And with that, Lila hurried out of the bar and tried to follow the nonexistent trail to Amelia. She pushed people roughly out of her way, frantic to find her best friend. Lila kept an eye out around the crowd around her, but a hunch told her that she'd find Milli at the condo. Once there, she thought the elevators taking her up to her room were being extra slow on purpose, and she struggled with her suite key. When she finally got access to the suite, Amelia was nowhere to be seen, but a glance out the balcony revealed that she was the lone figure in the condo's outdoor pool. Lila ran her way down there, and found Amelia balled up in a chair with her knees on her chest and a cigarette on her lips. Mascara-stained tears rolled down her cheeks, making trails on her lovely cheeks. Lila walked up to her and crouched next to Milli's chair.

"Honey, I just want to say that I'm here for you: always have been, always will be. I'm sorry I've been so secluded since last afternoon and was too selfish to see that you needed my support. I'm here now. Just tell me what you want me to do." Lila said gently, waiting for Amelia's response.
