Robert's house had been completely covered in decorations, gold and silver streamers hung from every corner, matching the chandeliers and gold topped champagne bottles. The guest list was extensive, most of the people on it being household names. A 1920s band played classic songs and jukebox covers of famous chart-toppers, while people danced and swayed in time to the music. RDJ was currently at the front door with marvel actor Chadwick Boseman, greeting guests as they entered in true Tony Stark style. He wore a patterned black blazer with a loose-fitting t-shirt underneath, talking to the Black Panther star about how Team Iron man would always win. He stopped their conversation briefly when four younger celebrities walked through the main doors.
"Ash, you made it! Your friends did too! There's cocktails and food in the kitchen, but if you're wanting party things there's a live band and party games in other rooms. Bella, Chris is in the dining room, two doors down on your left. He would've met you at the door, but Sebastian insisted on playing a game of beer pong with him before you arrived" Robert spoke, having the ability to make everyone feel at home as soon as they arrived.
"Thanks, Downey. I'll go see him now" Bella replied before disappearing to go find the beer pong tournament.
"Oh, how rude of me. Guys this is Chadwick, aka Black Panther. Chadwick this is Ash, Silas and Ezra" Robert introduced, Chadwick nodding to the three still standing opposite him. They all shook hands and exchanged pleasantries, Silas freaking out about meeting another marvel actor.
"I already met Ezra when they helped do the scores for Black Panther, but it is lovely to meet you Ash and Silas. I recognise you from your amazing music Ash"
Ash thanked him for his kind words before Chadwick excused himself to go find his wife who was in the kitchen talking to Cobie Smulders, Scarlett Johansson, and Susan Downey. The three women already deep in conversation about their favourite alcoholic drinks.
"As much as I would love for you kids to stay and chat with me, go off and enjoy the party. Oh, just before midnight please make your way to the patio area so we can all do the count down together"
Ezra, Silas, and Ash nodded their heads in a final thanks before walking off to explore the house.

» Ash's pov «
After wandering around different rooms for quite some time, Silas, Ezra, and I settled in the living room on a large, u-shaped sofa, each with a fancy cocktail in hand. I had gone with a margarita, resting it gently on my knee as I lay back into the cushions. I swirled the drink in my hand some more before being approached by a familiar pair of green eyes. The woman swayed slightly, obviously tipsy but still sober enough to stand which was a good sign.
"Hey Lizzie"
"Hey yourself Laurier. Robbie can't make it tonight which means I've decided for you to be my dance partner. And no, you don't get a say in the matter"
I downed the rest of my drink and placed it on a side table, realising she would pester me until I agreed.
"You're on Olsen. I've seen your H&M advert though so I'm expecting great things"
She yanked me up off the sofa and led me to where the music was being played, twirling me around as soon as we reached the dance floor. We quickly discovered that both of us had professional dance training, falling into doing more complicated moves. After a few minutes, most of the other guests had cleared the dance floor without us realising to watch us jump and spin in time to the music. Without any communication, we both started doing the Charleston, the swing music perfect for it. It was a ridiculous dance, but Lizzie and I made it look somewhat elegant and effortless. Just before the song finished, I caught Lizzie in my arms, placing her down carefully as the singers held their last note. Her face lit up with excitement, as we were greeted with an eruption of applause, Scarlett shaking her head in mock disapproval at our moves.
