Owen was the one who felt responsible. He’d bought her too many drinks and set her up to be victimized. But part of him knew that wasn’t right. She was perfectly capable of deciding how much she wanted to drink and obviously had trusted him enough to let herself enjoy the evening with him. That didn’t make him feel any better, really. He hoped it didn’t spoil her whole evening. Although with the way she looked, completely terrified --- it had spoiled everything.
“Of course, I’ll walk you home. You don’t even need to ask.”
He hesitated and squinted down at her heels and remembering her wobbling gait as they’d marched away from the club. “Here. Let me.”
He turned her sideways and began to slowly pick her up in a cradling style. He was cautious about it, not wanting to just sweep her up after she had been assaulted by that other asshole. Plus, he didn’t want to make her sick with all that alcohol on her stomach just swinging her around. Which he could have easily done. She was light and easy to pick up and felt rather small cradled in his arms. Her sorority house wasn’t far and it would be simple to carry her all the way there if she needed him to.
"You drank quite a bit." He laughed as he walked with her. "You had fun otherwise?"
