Imagine going to the hottest girls' house party with your best friend Jules. You've liked her for months, but she has never even acknowledged your existence so why would you try tonight.
You sit next to one of the chairs and look at the ground, "Why are you so nervous?" You look up at her, "Oh, I'm just not used to being away from home. I'd like to stay home."
You smile awkwardly and he rubs your back. "You're fine. Everything will be fine, I promise." You nod as you see Jules sit your other friends next to you. A girl comes up and has long curly hair. She has brown eyes with a hint of green.
"Hi, I'm Madeline. You look so cool." She laughs at your answer and looks at Jules. "Your friend is beautiful. she doesn't socialize much, does she now?"
Everyone laughs at her answer, and she sits down next to you on the stairs. You look at Jules and shout to yourself: "Come with us!" After introducing each other, Jules pulls a bag of weed out from her bag "Bongs or Blunts?"
Everyone says blunts so Jules gives you some paper, sand and grass. You pretend you know what you're doing when you're so lost. Jules whispers in everyone's ears to say she wants you and Z to kiss and then helps you.
You get embarrassed and decide to get up and leave. Z follows you with her drink. "You've never rolled a blunt before have you?" You shake your head and sigh frustrated.
"I thought nobody would like me if I didn't know what I was doing.
"Let me help you here." She shows you how to grind grass and makes sure you follow along.
Then she puts her hands on yours. She shows you how much to use and then rolls it with his fingers. You smile softly and look at her.
"Besides, the girl should never roll up unless she offers." She laughs softly. "Now, go show everyone what you did." You run to your best friend happily.
"See, I did it." You look at Jules and she claps. Everyone is applauding you and Z lets you take the first hit.
"I light it up and all you do is inhale." You do as she says. You blow it out in her face and she smiles softly.
"Woah, Jules you didn't tell her what that meant?" You look around confused at everyone and tilt your head, "what means what."
"If you blow smoke into someone's face, you either want to fuck them, or you're disrespecting them." Everyone laughs, "and we know you aren't disrespecting her." You hide your face into your hoodie as it turns red from being embarrassed.
When everyone finished smoking, everyone decided to drink. They gave you a shot without any chaser and everything started hitting you right away.
After a couple hours, everyone but your circle has left, but you start to feel sick.
Everyone stands up and Jules looks at you. "Are you okay? You look like you're not well."
You shrug. "I just have a headache, so it's making me sick." You try to sit up in the chair and throw up all over the back porch.
"I'm so sorry, Z. I'll help you clean it up." You stand up to grab the garden hose and one of her friends grab it. Z laughs and ties your hair up, so it is out of your face. "Let's go get you cleaned up and ready."
She helps you inside. "Let's get you a snack too. Smoking on an empty stomach isn't good. It made you throw up. You greened out. Everyone does it. Relax. Everyone is right here to help you."
Z helps you splash some water on your face in the bathroom and she turns the bath water on you.
You turn to look at her and trip over your foot. Z grabs you before you trip and wraps her arms around your waist.
"Okay, let me hold you and help before you break yourself." She gets the water to the right temperature and your head is on her chest.
She puts you down to get out of the bathroom. "Wait will you help me please?" You look at her trying to take off your shirt. "I feel very..weak."
She laughs cautiously. "Of course, I will." She helps you undress and gently picks you up to put you in the bath. She splashes water in your face to notice you and you start looking at the ceiling before closing your eyes.
After a while; she makes sure you can sit up on your own before she stands up.
"I'm gonna go get you some clothes and medicine. I'll make you a snack too. "I'll be back."
She kisses the top of your head and she walks out of the bathroom.
Z comes back into the bathroom and helps you out of the tub. She wraps a towel around you and brush your hair. She braids your hair and turns to you. She hands you the medicine and a glass of water. "Here, take this. I made you grilled cheese and some tomato soup. It's in my bedroom. You can lay in there until you feel better."
She wraps her arms around you and walks you to her room before laying you on her bed. You sit up against the pillow, and she hands you your food. "Thank you." You smile and kiss her cheek.
"You're welcome. I'll come check on you in a little bit okay?" She stands up and walks to the door.
"Oh, by the way Y/N, you don't have to pretend you do things to get attention from people you have a crush on." She winks at you and walks out of the room.
After about a hour, you slowly walk downstairs to find everyone sitting on the couch. Rue noticed you and they start talking. "Y/N is awake." She points at you.
You wave to everyone and sits on the floor in front of the couch. Z runs her hands through your hair and you lean your head back on the cushion of the couch. You look up at her and you see her smiling at you. Z kisses you and you kiss her back while blushing. You lay your head by her lap and your body finally relaxes. Everyone has decided on playing board games and listen to music for the rest of the evening.
