We pull up as far as we can to the abandoned barn without getting blocked in by another party goer.

As soon as I stepped out of the car I could feel the ground pulse with the loud bass filled music. I scrunch up my face in detest, never really being a big party person. Melissa and Leah both grab my hands; pulling me through the endless cars and people towards the over crowded barn.

Once inside drinks were shoved into our hands by some burly looking guy. Feeling anxious I down half my drink in a gulp. We make our way further inside, saying the occasional 'hey' to some people. We find a large hay bale and take a seat, the scratchy hay feeling extremely rough on the bare part of my legs.

We spend a few minutes chatting about what happened over the last few days, and discussing Roman. I briefly tell them about him buying a house right down the street from mine, leaving them shocked and asking me a billion questions. After about 20 minutes of talking and finishing our drinks off; we get up to grab another one.

As we are making our way towards the kegs I feel a light tap on my shoulder causing me to twirl around, and bump into a solid chest.

I peer up to get a look at whom I've crashed into; then my heart stops.

"Lo-oook wh-who it is!" He chimes, his disgusting breathe fanning my face.

I scrunch my face up in repulsion and take a big step back.

"Hey Rowan. It seems you're enjoying your night." I state sarcastically and glare.

"Would've been so much better if I came with my girlfriend. Oh wait! I don't have one because she broke up with me for no reason!" He angrily yells, throwing his arms up to add emphases to his statement.

I recoil at his words and begin to stare at the ground, "You know why I had too." I mutter.

"Yeah I do. For that pretty boy. Oh, don't worry I know." I spits each word with venom.

My eyes go wide as he shoves his way pass me hard. I let out a small 'oouph' sound and rub my now throbbing shoulder.

I quickly make my way to the girls, "I need shots. And lots of them!" I exasperate and reach for the Jack Daniels whiskey. I begin to chug from the bottle, almost throwing up a few times.

"Woah woah! What the hell was that with Rowan?" Leah asks, eyeing me up as I remove the bottle from my lips.

"He knows about Roman. That's what that was about." I slur, my vision quickly blurring.

"Forget the idiot. Let's just have a good time! Never like Rowan anyway!" Melissa chimes, handing is beers.

We down them all at the same time and make our way onto the dance floor.

Once on the dance floor my favourite song by Tove Lo begins to play, Body Talking. I instantly begin to sway to the beat and just let loose. Until I feel a pair of strong pair of hands gripping my hips roughly. I somehow manage to spin myself in his tight grip, and to my dismay it's Rowan once again!

"Get off me!" I screech and swat at his chest, this only made him tighten his grip.

"I mean it!"

Suddenly he was pushed away from me. Stumbling sideways before falling on his ass, which made me giggle drunkenly. He shot me a death glare before retreating.

I turn around to see my saviour, which happened to be my two best friends; who are smiling triumphantly.

I give them the thumbs up and make my way through the crowd to get some fresh air.

Once outside I reach in my purse for a cigarette and light it up. I take a deep inhale then slowly exhale it out.

Buzz

My phone begins to ring and vibrate in my pocket. I quickly reach for it and answer it without looking,

"He-hellooo?" I ask in annoying drunk girly voice and giggle at my own annoying voice.

"October what the hell! Are you drunk?!" The man's voice booms over the speaker.

I gulp, "Hi Ro-Roman. Noooo!" Again giggle.

"That's it! I'm coming to get you. Stay exactly where you are."

And with that he hung up. My heart begins to race and suddenly I feel even more drunk and begin to sway as my body gets even looser feeling.

"He doesn't know where I am." I grumble to myself.

"Who doesn't know where you are?" Leah asks from behind causing me to shriek and jump. Ultimately falling flat on my face.

I groan in pain and try to get up, only to fall over again.

"I'm in trouble! Roman's cominggg!" I sing.

They both groan wrapping my arms around their shoulders and carry me pass the slowly fading people. We make it to the edge of the road and begin to wait.

*10 minutes later*

I fall asleep in Melissa's lap, softly snoring until I feel I'm being lifted with a pair of muscular arms.

I stir awake and groggily look up at the man carrying me, "My hero!" I chuckle, which only made him clench his jaw even more.

He gently places me in the car and gets in himself. Then we are off, and I feel sick.

Well this shall be a great ride... Not.
