"yo" elliot greets as i got into his car, "you good?" he asks as i buckle up, "dad's buggin again" i mutter reclining the seat once he drove off "oh?" from the corner of my eye i could see him digging in his pockets "i've got just the thing" he smirks producing a small baggie, i suck my teeth "nah el, i can't get too fucked up tonight" he shrugs, slipping the baggie back in his pocket.

"who's party is this?" he shrugs once more, "no clue, but there's free drinks and i'll finally get the chance to be around people other than family" i scoff "you love me!" i proclaim, leaning over on the center console "and don't act like it's not true"

he swatted me away as i leaned in even closer, making kissy faces at him "theo chill" he says, quickly grabbing ahold of the wheel with both hands as the car swayed into the median.

"you play too much" he mutters something else under his breath, quickly buckling his seatbelt.

once we made it to the party, he led the way inside, through the crowd of people. i kept my arms wrapped around his shoulders, keeping close so we didn't get split up

we stopped off in the kitchen to grab some drinks, "you sure you don't want any?" he asks, patting his pocket, i shook my head, pouring myself a drink

"are you doing that now?" he nods, grabbing my cup out of my hand and taking a sip "shit, that's strong" he grimaced, passing it back as i chuckle "i'll be back" he wandered off, i refilled my cup moving out of the way as a girl crawled past me on the floor

i stared after her with an eyebrow raised, glancing back to see just who she was so desperately trying to avoid. as i was looking over the crowd my eyes landed on a certain someone seated on the couch, sparking up a blunt.

i took a drink from my cup, "damn that is strong" i shrug and took another sip before making my way through the crowd

"hey" i greet, plopping down beside him on the couch "can i get a hit" he had a slightly amused look on his face as he passed it to me, watching me inhale

"how come i haven't seen you around here before?" i handed it back, slowly exhaling as i looked him over again "my family just moved here about a week ago, i'm theodora, but everyone calls me theo"

"ah, that's cool i'm fezco, but you can just call me fez" i nod taking another hit, "what's that short for?" i muse, a smile on my lips as i guessed "fezcornelius?" he laughs

"i see you've got jokes"

we sat and smoked for a while, honestly i did not picture my night going this way but this was so much better. i glanced at my phone, "oh shit" i mutter, glancing back at fezcornelius "i'll be right back, you want a drink or anything?" i offer, he shakes his head "nah, i'm good"

i got off the couch, heading outside as i looked at my messages from elliot again

downstairs laundry room
theo i need help

i unzipped my bag as i pushed past a few people, circling around the outside of the house before i found a staircase leading down to an empty hallway "how did he even end up down here?" i ask myself, trying each of the doors until one opened

"el?" i quickly entered the room, surprised to see him and the same girl that was crawling through the kitchen earlier, sitting on the floor together

"elliot?" he glanced at me, "oh hey, false alarm" i nod, dropping the narcan back into my bag, i turned my attention onto the girl, our eyes met as she stared back at me "i'm theo" i greet
