Drunk on Fame (1D fanfic)

6 - Niall

~~~ Niall ~~~

That was it. I really felt it that time. My stomach felt like a million butterflies had just been born inside it. I took a step back, laughing before running after my friends. They were further ahead, already high, but it had taken me longer to get to my happy state today, I don't know why. I suppose because yesterday I had been brought back to reality- seen the newspapers. I thought maybe in this little town in America I would be safe from the paparazzi, but obviously not.

I had been oblivious to anyone with flashing cameras though. No one ever seemed to come down here, which was the great thing about it. I was safe from everyone, getting drunk and high with these people. Heck, right now I couldn't even remember my left from right, why was I so deep in thought?

"Shit! Niall what the fuck are you doing? Get your lazy ass up here!" I heard a deep voice growl.

Looking up the hill I saw the 7 others I had come with. I took one last sniff of the white powder before blowing it onto the grass and stamping it into the ground. I let out a loud whoop before sprinting up the hill, with a sudden energy rush. I jumped on top of the guys, causing a couple to fall to their knees, cursing.

I tumbled down the other side of the hill, whilst the world spun around me. I knew I was letting out weird noises on every step, but who cares? I heard grunts coming from the muscly guy behind me. He was on a mission.

I felt a grin break out on my face... A chase. I loved these, the adrenaline rush was exhilarating and refreshing. My imagination took over as I clambered down the steep bank, occasionally tripping on thin air, in my high state. Suddenly I came face to face with a deep pool of silvery looking water. What the hell? It was hot, I was sweaty, and that pond looked cool.

Water entered my nose as I plummeted into the moonlit pond. It felt icy, considering the heat on the land. I ducked my head underwater, bringing it out roughly and coughing up the water that I'd swallowed. Pond weed sprayed from my hair as I shook my head free of water.  

There was a large splash, and another, and another, until all 7 guys were in the cool pond. I shrieked in excitement, swimming away from them as fast as possible, and swallowing a gallon of dirty water on my way.

God. This was as high as I'd been for a while... But until someone comes to save me, it's how I'm going to be.
