8-Another Party Another Kenneth

After class I meet Jasmine back at our dorms. 

She texted me letting me know she had a surprise for me. 

Walking into our room I set my bag down by my bed. Jasmine sits on hers a big smile on her face. 

"What's up?" I ask and she shows me her phone screen, "It's a party, and we're going."

The text on her phone shows it's at one of the frat houses. It's for tonight, which makes sense since it's Friday.

"Why are we going?" I ask taking my hair out of my ponytail. 

"Because babe it's a party. Plus I need this that stupid TA decided to get mad at me because I got him in trouble for not doing his job. Like how are you going to blame me for wanting the grade I deserve?" She rants.

I sit down on my bed, "Did you ask Louis why he doesn't like you?" She scoffs, "What is there not to like? Anyways can we go to this party pleeaaassee?."

Sighing I nod, Jasmine stands from her bed squealing, "Yay let me start getting ready."

I look over at my clock, "It's only five." I say and she rolls her eyes, "So? I need to plan my outfit that takes time." Before I can say anything she grabs her shower bag heading to the bathrooms. 

Laying back on my bed I grab my chocolate covered gummy bears from my nightstand. Unzipping the bag I pop some in to my mouth. 

Opening instagram I watch some edits on my explorer page. After I get bored of that I grab my computer to watch some Netflix.

Jasmine comes back into the room and starts going through her closet. 

"I have nothing to wear." She grumbles throwing clothes onto the ground. "You can wear something of mine if you want." I say and she turns, "Really?" I nod. 

She heads over to my closet going through clothes. 

Eventually she finds something she likes and changes before starting her hair and makeup. 

After a while I decide to start getting ready. 

I put on a pair of high waisted blue jeans and a long sleeve red wrap around top. I also decide to straighten my hair. 

Jasmine comes out dressed in a pair of high waisted black shorts and a lace white top. 

Grabbing what we need we head out to the party. 

On the way there Jasmine tells me in detail how exactly the altercation between her and Louis- her TA- went down. 

Basically he stopped her after class and told her about how he got in trouble by the professor for grading her papers wrong. Of course Jasmine stood up for herself as she should but he only got more annoying. He stormed off once he realized he wouldn't win the argument. 

Classic.

We enter the party and as usual Jasmine immediately takes me to get drinks. 

Out of any kind of parties I have been to, frat parties are the worst. 

I never know what to do at them. 

She hands me the cup and I take a sip. 

"Of course he's here." Jasmine says and I look over to where she is staring.

Luke stands there with his arm around a girls shoulder. Leaning in he whispering something into her ear, to make her blush.

"I mean he is a frat boy and this is a frat party." I say and she nods, "True maybe lover boy will be here."

No matter how many times I tell her Cole and I are just friends, she still continues to call him lover boy. She claims we are just to blind to see the tension between us. 

Not sure what tension she is referring to. 

"I doubt it, he was only here the last time because it was Luke's birthday." I still keep an eye out for him though.

At some point Jasmine insists we have to dance, so we head out onto the dance floor. 

Aka the living room. 

We had been dancing for a while when we are joined by another girl. 

She has sandy blonde hair and when she turns towards me I realize she looks super familiar.

Her eyes are a deep shade of blue and she looks young. Too young for a college frat party. 

She smiles and it clicks. She was in the family picture on Cole's instagram. 

He told me he had two siblings. Luke was his step brother and Amber his half sister. 

That's also when I realize I was correct she is too young for a college party.

Cole said she was sixteen. 

"Hey Amber come back over here." I hear Luke say and she looks at him flipping him off before looking at me and Jasmine. 

"Don't worry about him,  he's just my annoying older brother." She says and Jasmine's brows furrow, "Who are you?"

She smiles, "Amber, do you guys go to this college?" We both nod. 

"Cool in two years I will too." Her arm is pulled by a fuming Luke. 

"I told you to stay close to me Mom and Keith would have a fit if something happened to you." He says to her as they retreat.

"Who was that?" Jasmine asks, "Cole's sister I wonder if he knows she's here."

I would text and ask him but it's none of my business. We are not that close to be in each others family affairs.

Jasmine halts a frown on her face. I turn to see what she's looking at, "Who's that?" I ask and she glares at the guy. 

He's got blond almost white hair and he's talking up some girl. 

"That's Louis." She says and I nod in understanding. Louis is the TA who tried to fail her. 

She laughs dryly, "You know what I think I am going to give him another piece of my mind. He thinks he could just walk off?" Before I can say anything she is stalking towards him. 

They start talking and things look heated. She's yelling and he's scowling. 

Then she points to upstairs and they head that way. 

They disappear up there for a while until she finally comes down stairs. 

I don't see him follow though, oh gosh did she kill him?

"Let's go." She says and all I do is nod as we leave the house. 

"What happened?" I ask and she shakes her head, "I'll tell you tonight-tonight I need to sleep."
