The Night We Met

Chapter 5

"UH I have to go," I say nervously pushing my hair behind my ear. Walking as fast as I can to the front door of this huge house I hear Keva calling my name and running after me. 

"Aspen wait, what happened," Keva smiled at me and I looked at her confused. I didn't know why she was smiling there was nothing funny about any of this. 

"Nothing I just want to go" 

"Okay well let me get my things so I can take you home" I knew Keva didn't want to leave I could hear it in her voice. I wouldn't be a good friend if I just pulled her away from a party she wanted to be at. 

"No....you stay I will just call my sister to come and get me" I grab her hands to reassure her that everything was all good.

"Are you sure"

"Yes, I'm sure stay,  have fun, I will text you later" Keva hugged me and walked back to where everyone was sitting and I made my way to the front yard trying to get a hold of my sister. Who wasn't answering her phone. I was cold and shivering but no matter how many times I called Stacey she didn't pick up.

"Hey, why are you out here." I jumped when I turned around I saw Archer standing there with his hands in his pockets.

"Oh um no I'm just waiting for my sister to come and get me" I turned back around hoping that he would get the memo that I didn't want to talk.

"You're leaving,...before 4 am? Please explain to me how that works" he laughs and stands on the side of me nudging me with his shoulder. 

"Yeah, I just want to get home before it gets too late but you know that would be much easier if my sister answered the phone. I threw my hands up shaking my head in disbelief. I can feel myself getting more and more irritated by the second.  

"I can give you a ride my car is right here." Archer points to the silver Jeep parked on the street. 

"Umm no it's okay I will just call an Uber" There was no way in hell that I was getting in the car with him. I didn't even know him I just met him in all over 10 minutes ago.  For all I know he can be some sorta of new-aged Ted Bundy. 

"I promise you're fine come on it's really cold out and it looks like your sister isn't going to answer." I mean he was right Stacey was most definitely not going to answer my call and it is pretty cold out here. My nose was already frozen and I could feel my feet going into hypothermia. 

"I don't want to take you away from the party" 

"It's fine I was going to get going anyway," he shrugged his shoulders and walked me to his car. 

"How much have you had to drink?" I stopped and asked before entering the car and she looked at me and giggled. 

"Barely anything come on let's go"

"Your girlfriend will probably be mad..she doesn't like me much" he closed his door and looked at me and laughed. 

"Bexley is not my girlfriend and she's a bitch to everyone even us we just ignore her" I nodded my head while buckling my seat belt. 

"Noted"
