Brother's Best Friend [Heartbreak High]

2: A Warm Welcome

After a few hours of settling in and catching up with your parents, Ant was once again starting up the car to drive you and and him to Dusty's. 

"Are you sure about driving there tonight?" You question, raising an eyebrow.

"It'll be chill Flo, worst case scenario we leave it there, no stress" Ant says dismissively. He fiddles with his phone, before he finds the song he was looking for and turns the volume way up. 

Song Playing: Pump It - Black Eyed Peas

Ant starts dramatically dancing and singing along, with such chaotic enthusiasm you have to laugh, and soon enough you're joining in. Ant had let you dress him, so you picked out some nice baggy cargos, a grey band tee, his favourite chain and plenty of rings. As for yourself, you wore some low waisted jeans and a light grey wrap top, which was currently hidden under a big bomber jacket, because you doubted your parents would approve of your clothing choice. Ant could be over protective, sure, but he never policed you over clothing, so you felt safe unzipping the jacket, keeping it half on for now. Your hair was tied back, with the essential slut strands out, of course, and had a smokey eye and bronzed make up look going on. All in all, you were feeling pretty good.

After a short drive, you pull up to Dusty's house, and you can already hear from outside that the party inside was well under way. 

"You ready?" your brother asks, grabbing and squeezing your hand in excitement.

"Heck yeah" you laugh, climbing out of the car and walking hand in hand with Ant to the front door. Now was time for the real welcome.

Opening the door, you're met with noise. Lots of it. There is far more people than what could ever be considered 'chill', some you recognise from school, others you don't. Music is blasting, everyone is drinking and shouting and laughing...and it's fucking amazing.

"Come on, let's find Dusty" Ant says, pulling you deeper into the house. 

You find Dusty in the kitchen, which has been transformed into a makeshift bar for the party. He spots you walking in and runs over, lifting you up and spinning you around until you start pleading him to stop, you did not want to get sick before you'd even started drinking.

"There she is! Welcome back Floss, we've missed you big time" Dusty says, finally putting you down. 

"I've missed you too Dustball, good to hear you've been behaving yourself while I was gone", you tease, as he rubs the back of his head in embarrassment, likely both at the nickname and the reminder of his recent actions. You can hear Ant laughing behind you two, grabbing a few beers from the fridge.

"Yeah yeah yeah. More importantly, it's time to celebrate. I can sense you two are too sober, so we're doing shots immediately," Dusty states, and goes to grab a few shot glasses, tequila, salt and lime. In the meantime, you find a chair to pop your jacket on, and when you come back to the table, you hear Dusty let out a wolf whistle.
