Behind The Mask

Zayn was his name. He was one of Harry's friends. Are conversation wasn't long because Harry reminded Zayn about someone named Niall who I assume was drunk.

The art gallery viewing was two days ago and the new painting has become a favorite to the exhibit.

I wanted to stay home tonight and catch up on Criminal Minds or Major Crimes, but Meagan insisted I go out with her. Tonight she was going to a party at some big mansion. I decided against it but after her pleading for a hour I gave in.

Don't get me wrong, I like parties but I don't like partying. I guess I was one of those people who enjoyed civil parties, not the loud music and grinding against each other type of one's.

It was far to late for me to change my mind as I hear the loud muffled nosies coming from down the street.

"Yay! Were almost there!" Meagan clapped and placed her hands back on the wheel again.

I didn't have a problem getting out of the car because I wore skinny jeans and a crop top with converse, unlike Meagan who wore a tight leopard skirt and a black bralet with black open toed heels.

I reached my hands out to her and she gripped on tightly as I shifted my body weight to my heels to pull her out.

"You should've wore heels, I feel like a giant next to you" Meagan laughs.

"Do you remember what happened last time?" There's no way in hell I could ever forget the one time I wore them and my hatered for heels.

The house was huge,actually bigger than huge if that was possible. The walk to the front door was beautiful. There were plants and flowers of all sorts and a fountain. The living room was even crazier, are apartment wasn't even that big compared to it.

I pushed my way thorough body's and lost Meagan to a group of girls and guys. I some how found my way into the kitchen, red cups were scattered on all the open counter space, the floor had was wet from god knows what.

Empty beer and fancy wines were on the floor and in the sink.

There was a big group in here as well, some people looking for my alcohol and others puking or making out.

"Hey doll" A boy around my age slurs and stumbles towards me.

He wasn't even that close and I could smell the alcohol dancing around him.

"No thank you" I say stepping to the side as he trips forward and falls.

Why did I agree this was a good idea?

I left the kitchen and made my way outside to the backyard where I nearly had a heart attack. This was like a forest of different flowers and trees and ponds. It was crazy amazing with sculpted bushes and a pool with a hot tub.

There were a whole bunch of girls singing,swimming and flirting. Guys where jumping in and doing back flips.

I scanned the area and found a nice spot in the grass where a tree hovered over you. I sat down a listened to the music from inside the house.

"Hey?" I hear and look over to the side to see a familiar body standing.

"Harry?" I laugh

"What are you doing here?" He says with crossed brows.

"To party obviously" I motion my hands around and move my shoulders up and down to make it seem like I was dancing.

"That was bad, I didn't except you to be a partier. I mean you were in a trance at the art gallery" he says smiling a little.

"Well you don't know me" I shrug and smirks.

"I'd like to know you" he's says eyes scanning my body then meeting mine again.

I feel really uncomfortable and bring my knees to my chest.

"Want a drink?"

"No thanks, I don't drink" he raises his eyebrows

"A rule follower huh?"

I just stare at him

"Joking. Want to dance then?"

This gorgeous boy wearing all black wants to dance with me? Wow I must look really attractive in the dark.

"I don't know how" that's embarrassing to admit. I never learned,I couldn't keep up with Meagan when she was trying to teach me.

I could see his smirk through the dark and I rolled my eyes.

"I can tea-"

"No that's alright" I said. I didn't want to actually dance...at least not with him. It was weird, I didn't know him at all and it's like he already knows everything he's going to tell me in a conversation because it just keeps on going.

"Okay then..." He said in a flat tone.

And then I hear a loud chant coming from the house.

Harry looked over in curiosity.

I got up and started my way over to the house and Harry jogged up to me.

"Really? I can't get you to do anything, but this gets you to move?" He says shaking his head.

I chuckle and he nudges me a little.

"I usually have girls hanging on my every word you know"

I roll my eyes and open the sliding glass door. I wish I could slam it shut but I can't.

"What the fuck?" I say loud enough for Harry to hear.

Right there in the kitchen Meagan is swinging her hips on someone random sleezy looking guy in her bra and underwear. Other people are chanting then on and throwing bills at them.

I want to hit my head against a wall because this is my fault for leaving this crazy woman alone.

"Meagan! Get down!" I yell over the peoples voices.

She looks down at me and slurs

"Your not my papa" and counties to grind

"Meagan please, just get down so we can leave" I say already getting annoyed. I feel Harry's presence beside me.

"Fuck off whore, she's sexy and having fun. Your nothing like her just leave" the guy Meagan is having 'fun' with spits.

Ouch.

I approach the counter there standing on and tug at Meagan's hand but she slaps it away.

"You heard him, your ugly and useless get out!" She yells and then the crowd laughs.

My eyes sting but I refuse to cry. I let out a frustrated sigh, and am about to say something but Harry jumps up onto the counter and pushes the guy off yelling at him curse words.

I take this chance and yank Meagan down, and picking up a random jacket that luckily doesn't have throw up on it. I pull it around her shoulders and hook my arm around on of hers.

I try my best to push through crowds of people but with Meagan stumbling every five seconds I have to stop so she can fix herself. After a good ten minutes I finally see the front door but then my hope of leaving come crashing down because I realize we took her car. And I don't know where her purse is meaning her car keys are somewhere in this place and I can't leave my half naked drunken best friend alone.
