Loving Lars

18. Loving The Party

Once again Anna and Harley had gotten me all dressed up to force me to a college party. As you can imagine I was very reluctant to go, as was the rest of the group.

"Come on! Who doesn't love cheap beer you don't have to pay for!" Harley tried to lift my spirits.

"I don't even like beer" I grumbled.

"Well I do." Anna said enthusiastically.

"Come on, we're meeting the others there." Harley shoved me in her car.

Much like last time I was wearing one of my own dresses but they had convince me to wear boots instead of my vans and no cardigan. Which I knew I'd regret later.

Anna and Harley both spent the whole car ride talking about the boys they wanted to hook up with. Meanwhile I was sat in the back grimacing at the explicit detail they'd go into when talking about what they wanted to do to them.

We pulled up to a mansion, scratch that it looked more like a palace. The driveway was long and winding with a fountain in the middle. The house was large and white, with pillars that resembled the ones from the Pantheon. 

Harley and Anna stepped out the car in their six inch heels, looking glamorous as ever in their bodycon dresses. Considering their usual attire, which is all leather jackets and fishnets, they really know how to blend into the regular college crowd. 

Upon entering the house, the first thing you see is the giant double staircase and the massive chandelier in the center. The furnishings were rather obnoxious, everything was either gold or silver and crushed velvet. Whoever hosted this party did a poor job of trying to protect the expensive decor. What looked like an oriental vase, had some type of liquid in. I guess when you're this rich, you could buy another one. 

This house was a shock to me considering I've lived in a two-bed cottage my whole life. I thought Lars's house was massive. 

"Oh look Elza! They have more than just cheap beer here!" Anna said excitedly. 

Harley noticed me grimace at a couple heavily making out against the kitchen counter we were stood near, "welcome to your first college party. This one's a bit more extravagant then they usually are." 

"First party in general, unless you count birthday partied from when we were kids." I replied. 

Anna and Harley looked at me the same way you'd look at a newborn puppy struggling to take its first steps. 

"We do you want to drink El?" Anna asked me sweetly.

"Just a coke." 

"I hope you meant vodka and coke." Harley joked. 

I shook my head no and Anna handed me a can. 

Harley and Anna did so many shots I was sure they'd both need new livers. 

"Let's go find the others and dance!" Harley slurred. 

They both rushed off and I trailed behind, hoping I don't lose them in the sea of people. 

We found a spot on the dancefloor and jumped and swayed in time to the music. I wasn't a partier or clubber, but one thing I did love, was dancing. I felt really free. If I stayed here all night, I knew I'd enjoy myself. 

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

It was an hour later when the guys found us in the same spot we'd been in the whole time. 

"Finally! We'd been looking for you everywhere." Cooper exasperated. 

"You know we love to dance! Of course we'd be here, shouldn't of wasted time looking anywhere else." Anna sassed drunkly.
