Chapter 18

(Harry's P.O.V)

Later that night after I ate pizza with Daxton and Gemma, I went up to my room and got ready. I knew that the party was tonight, so I was guessing that was why Alexis wanted to talk to me.

I combed my hair and pushed it back. I usually never do this, but it's good to try something different. After that, I went downstairs and waited on the steps that lead to the house. I saw a familiar red car pull up, so I stood up and stepped down the stairs. Then entered the car, pop songs playing loudly from the inside.

"Hey," Alexis said, putting her fingers to the volume nob, turning it down.

"Hi," I spoke quietly, Alexis started the car and backed out of the driveway. It was quiet for the first few minutes, neither of us saying a word.

"What did you need me foor?" I asked, looking straight ahead. She turned the music up a little louder.

"One, to pick you up. And two, I just wanted to give you a heads up that you should be careful at this party," I raised a brow, but decided not to answer.

So much shit has happened in the past four months. Getting kidnapped was probably the biggest thing, and I'm really hoping nothing bad happens at this party.

It was raining, as usual. And the clouds were hovering the skies. Everything was gloomy, and it didn't help with my excitement on going to this place. I bit the inside of my cheek, humming along to the radio quietly.

About ten minutes later, we arrived at the house. It was your average sized house, music booming loudly from the inside. I took a deep breath, exhaled, then exited the car, Alex following my movements. I knocked at the door three times and Alexis laughed, was I supposed to just walk in?

My question was answered by Alexis sighing and twisting the knob, opening the door and stepping inside. I took a step in and was hit with the smell of beer, and marijuana. Much like before. I'm guessing that every party is like this.

I closed the door and followed Alexis throughout the house. She led me to the kitchen and grabbed a beer, pulling out another one after that. She handed me the cold drink and opened hers, taking a swig.

I opened the cap and looked at the liquid inside and thought about if I should drink it or not, but soon enough I was taking it to my lips. I took a sip and made a face of disgust but shrugged it off and brought it to my lips again.

I want to have fun at this party. And having fun means that I should probably get loaded. Because so far, this is as worse as the last party. The song changed to a more up-beat one and cheers could be heard.

I followed Alexis as she pulled me out of the room and into another, the living room. People were grinding against one another, and if they weren't doing that they were in the corner almost to the point of having sex right there. I looked around the living room, trying to see what it looked like. But that was impossible as I was dragged throughout the place, her hold tight on my hand. She was strong for a girl who was so short and tiny.

About 15 minutes later of us standing in a corner, both drinking our second beers, Alexis coughed and said, "Want to go to the back?" Pointing to the outside where more people were.

"Sure." She pulled me to the back and shut the door behind us. There was a pool and a hot tub. A few people were sitting by the pool smoking joints but that was about it. You could still hear the music clear from the inside, but I've gotten used to it by now.

The raining has stopped but the ground was still wet. Making my shoes dirty with mud. Alexis pulled something out of her pocket and then a lighter, a cigarette.
