*drugs mention*

isabelle has been friends with luke since they've met within the first weeks of college. funny enough, they met through a programming class- something isabelle isn't the best at, but he guided her the most.

the two were walking to class, together as usual, talking and chatting amongst themselves about their grades.

it was just a normal day for the two, just going to class and all that. " i got invited to this party this weekend, i was wondering if you wanted to come. " he asked.

" i'd love to, but i can't. " isabelle replied.

" aww, you never come to parties. " luke replied, smiling. " i never see you outside of class. "

" i know, but i just can't. " isabelle sighed.

" why is that? you don't have to answer that, but i'm curious. you never told me about your personal life. " luke asked.

the two continued walking outside, isabelle feeling a bit panicky about luke's question. she didn't exactly owe him an answer but her guilty conscious made her feel bad about not telling him. he trusted her, and she trusted him, why was that hard?

" it's okay, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. " luke said, rubbing her back.

his friendly smile almost made her feel safe. almost.

...

when isabelle returned home, her father wasn't there. she sighed in relief, but she was lonely. she always was. she sometimes ignored her friends' texts. when he was home, she was never safe.

maybe this one time, she thought. she checked her phone, seeing texts from luke. multiple ones, too. maybe something could work out. she knew it was essentially a impulsive decision, but it was her first time doing something like this.

Luke ✌

i can give you a ride later. party starts at 8. hope your okay!! 💕

isabelle

yeah. i can make it.

luke

sounds like a plan. see ya later.

...

the atmosphere was way different from what she was used to. smoke filled the room she was in, and the house was quiet large. the glowed with it's deep blue and purple lights, giving off a vibe. deep down, she was worried about her father getting home. she was usually asleep at this time. most of the people, she barely recognized.

loud music blared through the house, walking with luke. she held on to him, like a small puppy to it's mother. she really didn't trust anyone here. " i'm gonna talk to some friends for some time, okay? " luke said.

isabelle removed herself from him, and nodded with a small smile. she pushed her dark hair away and out of her face. this definitely wasn't her thing. she looked around, attempting to find some place to sit, but was rather unlucky at the moment.

she bumped into the many bodies in the room, trying to navigate her way around. the feeling of loneliness struck again. deep down, she felt as if luke hated her, but she didn't know if that was the case.

luke and alena were good people, she just felt like a bore. she wasn't interesting, and she barely had any likes or interests. tears swelled up in her eyes, she wished she was someone else.

" hey, you good? " a voice chimed in.

isabelle blinked, realizing she zoned out. how long did she stood there?

" huh? " isabelle mumbled.

the person faced her, a concerned look on her face. " you were just standing there, and i was wondering if you're alright. "

" thanks, i'm fine. promise. " isabelle replied.

the person wore a beanie, with long hair going way past shoulders. the color was hard to see, but they had a large oversized hoodie. something about them was familiar.

isabelle didn't know what, but she just decided to not think about it any deeper.

" do you wanna sit somewhere? " the person asked.

" i-i guess. "

isabelle found couch to sit on. it felt nice compared to what shes used to. the person sat adjacent to her, looking at isabelle.

isabelle didn't ask for a name. she wasn't used to people outside her circle, and this many in a house was too overwhelming. she needed to leave, quickly. the other person recognized the panic on her face and within her body language. she moved closer to isabelle although she's unaware.

she wanted to go home, as parties weren't her thing. she texted luke, and sat back, waiting. " hey, do you want me to- "

isabelle stood up, walking over to luke, who took her back. the person got up, and followed slowly. watching as they both left, the person sighed, going back in.

getting to her door, luke hugged her goodbye, and watched as she got in the house. isabelle was relieved that her father wasn't home. she closed the door behind her, and walked into her bedroom, where she sat on the bed, and cried.
