"Walking to Cooper, I asked, "Are you taking me home now?" Cooper took the beer from my hand. "There's pizza in the kitchen. Are you hungry?" "I'd like to go home." "Maybe your boyfriend can take you," he said, glaring at Nick who ignored him. "Is that your way of saying you won't take me?" Cooper finally pulled his gaze away from Nick and focused it on me. "Who gave you this drink?" "I don't know. Some guy." "Your boyfriend?" "No, some guy." "Did you drink it?" "I'm eighteen and it's illegal for me to drink alcohol." Cooper laughed. "You're kidding, right?" "No," I said, crossing my arms. "I take the law very seriously." "Nerd." Laughing, I tightened my arms and studied him. "Did someone mess with the drink? Like a roofie?" "Maybe. These guys are idiots. Always fucking with stupid freshmen girls because you bitches don't know any better," Cooper said, his gaze locking onto someone behind me. I turned to find the guy who handed me the beer now standing near the door with his friends. "Should I drink this shit?" Cooper hollered at the guy. "Huh, asshole? What happens if I drink it?" When Cooper lifted the beer to his lips, the guy looked ready to run. Only a second passed before the beer went flying and smashed against the guy's head."
