WHITNEY'S HOUSE
"Are they doing what I think they're
doing?" Courtney
asks, sounding both concerned and a little amused.
Jason
has no idea how she can even
think of humor at a time like this. The party -- the black lights, the
booming music, the drinks, all the people -- fades away around him as he
watches Lauren
and Alex heading up the stairs, hand in hand.
"What is he doing?" Jason
mutters, trying very hard to shake off the buzz from the alcohol.
"They're working things out," Courtney
says. "This is turning into a pattern for them or something."
He turns to her, absolutely appalled,
knowing that it is showing in his own mouth and widened eyes. Suddenly
he can see the effects of the night's drinking in her face.
He darts out of her grasp. "I need
to go stop them."
"What? No, Jason, stop--" She grabs
him again, roughly, by the arm. "Leave them alone!"
"I can't! They're about to--Courtney,
this is a huge mistake."
"Leave them alone!" she cries, her
voice leaping in intensity.
"No! I need to stop them." He pulls
away from her again and begins forcing his way through the crowd, hardly
even aware of the people he is pushing aside.
"Jason!" He hears the call, faintly
from behind him, blurred by the music and the talking and the alcohol.
He doesn't even acknowledge it.
