Just a college girl discovering herself...

Chris is pulling the guy away, firmly stating, “Hey, she’s with me.”

The guy looked angry for a moment, then apologetic when he realized it was Chris.

“Sorry, Brother Chris.”

He immediately releases you and disappears into a crowd.

You feel yourself breathing again and look at Chris curiously.

“Thank you... brother Chris?”

Chris laughs for a moment, then shakes his head.

“Are you okay?”

You rub the area of your arm where the other guy had gripped hard, then state that you believe you will be alright.

Chris looks at you concerned.

“Tell me you didn’t come here alone,” he says.

You point to the couple making out in the corner.

“My roommate made a friend.”

He looks over to them and laughs.

“With Mikhail? Good for... them. I know Mikhail. He will make sure she makes it back okay.”

You smile at that and watch as Chris walks over to them, saying something to Mikhail and Trisha. Trisha seems to be waving goodbye to you shortly after.

Chris returns and asks if he could walk you back.

You link arms with him and let him lead the way.

Chris tells you how you shouldn’t come to a fraternity party unaccompanied by more sober individuals... warning you that sometimes it isn’t safe for “pretty girls like you,” which makes you blush.

He also tells you to never leave your drink unattended, even if briefly. Stating that he tries to keep an eye on the party people, but he knows roofies and ecstasy get passed around sometimes.
