me. Nevertheless,
he also took a step back, and we both turned at the same time as a guy reached
the top of the stairs and stepped into the room.
    "Who's up here?" the man asked.
    "Just me," Luke replied.
    "Oh, hey, Luke. Sorry to interrupt your make out
session, but I gotta use the head. No way in hell am
I waiting in that line downstairs."
    As the frat member approached the bathroom, I stepped
away from Luke and began to make my way back toward the stairs, with Luke right
behind me.
    "You leaving already?"
    I glanced over my shoulder and smiled. “It's late, I'm
drunk, and I should be going," I said.
    "You'd have more fun if you stayed," he
grinned.
    I saw the whites of his teeth in the darkness, and
while more than anything I wanted to kiss him again, I didn't want to seem too
easy. If he wanted something from me, he would have to work for it. "No
doubt that's true," I said, heading down the stairs. "Nevertheless,
it is late, I am drunk, and I am going."

Chapter 4
    The next couple of days passed in a blur. The party at
the fraternity house had been Friday night, and it was now Sunday afternoon.
Tomorrow would be the first day of classes, but I was ready. I had already
filled my schedule, with enough time a couple of days a week to take on a
part-time job if I needed to. I had a full schedule on Mondays Wednesdays and
Fridays, although on Tuesday I just had a couple morning classes, and on
Thursdays, a couple of afternoon classes. Between the weekends and the two half-days
off, I could probably generate an adequate part-time income from something
around the neighborhood if I needed to. I probably would. I certainly didn't
like to be idle.
    Yesterday morning, as I knew I would, I had woken up
with a mother of all hangovers. The only thing that kept me from totally regretting
my evening out was that kiss with Luke. Of course, my girlfriends and I had all
shared our experiences yesterday morning after we all dealt with the aftermath
of the party. Becky, Desiree, and Selena had all managed to "score"
and were more than happy to share blow by blow descriptions of making out with their
respective dates, but not one of them had known much about the guy they'd gone
out with before meeting them at the fraternity. Of course, it was the same with
me and Luke, but I didn't score with him, and I pointed that fact out to the
girls as we all compared notes.
    "I kissed him and that was all!" I insisted
for the third time later that afternoon.
    "Are you telling me that you let that delicious-looking
drink of a man get away with nothing but a kiss?" Becky scoffed in her
usual friendly and teasing manner. "Why, if I had had him within arm's
reach, I'd grab for his-"
    "You would've grabbed for his ass and anything
else you could get your hands on," Desiree interrupted.
    The three of them erupted into laughter, but I wasn't
so amused. While my girlfriends had never really teased me about my inability
to find a guy that I felt lived up to my standards, I was beginning to feel a
bit protective of Luke for some bizarre reason. Not that he needed protection.
As a matter of fact, I had a feeling that he was more than familiar with the
female sex. Hadn’t I noted that as a prerequisite on my list? He wasn't mine,
either. In fact, if any one of my girlfriends approached him and even made out
or had sex with him, it wouldn't really bother me. Would it?
    "Look, it wasn't that big of a deal," I
continued. However, I did manage to curtail, as quickly as possible, the heat
of a blush that traveled into my cheeks. "I started to kiss him on the
cheek as my way of thanking them for taking me up to the bathroom, but he
turned his head at the last moment.” I paused, as if reassessing my own words.
“He is a good kisser," I admitted. "As a matter of fact, I felt a
tingle the minute he grabbed my hand to take me out of the bathroom line."
    "What kind of a tingle?" Selena wanted to
know.
    One thing I could say about my girlfriends and
sorority sisters was
