Trigger!
The following chapter involves sexual harassment.
"Girl! You look stunning!" squeaks Chloe.
"Uh look who's talking" I say sarcastically, complimenting her back.
And we make our way to the party. Leo called, that he'll be late.
We enter the given destination. It's a big house. Music blasting loudly and one of the girls who invited us. Well Leo and Chloe to be precise, welcome us as we enter. She has thick brown hair. She's wearing a red shimmer crop top and tight white jeans.
"Amy! You look gorgeous babe!" squeaks Chloe. No wonder she makes so many friends. "This is Amy, Amy this is Evelyn." Amy offers a big smile. She looks sweet.
"Have fun at the party." says Amy while giving a little rub on my arm.
The front room was pretty big, it had a couch in the corner. And a small table with a few drinks and snacks. 3 girls and 2 boys filled the couch.
The next room we enter is much bigger than the previous one; it's a dining com kitchen. The kitchen slab's filled with food and drinks.
"Chloe!" a girl with Afro hair and dark skin, perfectly drawn fox eyes, in a cute light blue backless ruched cropped top, and a pair of tight black jeans approaches us. "I'm glad you made it!" She leans a little closer due to loud music.
"This is Evelyn" Chloe introduces me to the girl "Evelyn this is Mia" she stretches out her hands to hug me and I hug her back she has a big beautiful smile on her face. "Enjoy the party you guys, where is your other friend? Leo was it?"
"Yeah, he'll be late."
"Cool. Let me know if you need anything. I will be over there" says Mia, pointing towards the dancing people. A group of boys and girls dancing and screaming.
I walk over to the table with food and snacks. Grab a packet of Cheetos and Chloe grabs a drink.
"I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight!" everyone sings, while dancing to 'Cheap Thrills' by Sia. I do like that song so I slightly start moving my body to the music.
As soon as Chloe sees me moving with the music she grabs my wrist and drags me to the dance floor. "Chlo-Chloe, nooo.... I'm good with the Cheetos lemme have the Cheetos." but she won't listen to me.
After an on and off dancing for like 40 minutes I realize that Chloe is not dancing anymore, she's drunk dancing now.
Chloe has finished a total of 4 drinks. And now I feel guilty for making this Hazel thing such a huge deal. It isn't Chloe who's really in danger, it's Chloe and my relationship that is in danger.
Leo hasn't arrived yet, or he would've accompanied Chloe. I start doing tiny dance moves, but I'm still way too uncomfortable to accompany Chloe. She needs the crazy type. And I'm nowhere near crazy.
I still try my best. Moving my arms, doing some criss cross steps. And soon I realize how terrible I am at dancing.
I start moving my waist and hips. More and more people start to join the dance. Soon the room is filled with drunk and poor dancers.
The couples hold on to each other, kissing while they move with the music. Some guy stands up on the kitchen slab and starts spraying alcohol on all the people who are dancing.
Some of them even open their mouths to drink it. Which is the least of my worries cause I find myself almost entirely wet. I am about to get out of the crowd when a hand falls around my shoulder holding me from exiting the crowd.
