It's been a week of Rafe rubbing his new relationship in my face every chance he gets. I've tried to stay away from the Cameron household but he even managed to bring her to the country club when she isn't even a member.
Sarah's been telling me he doesn't seem that interested in her when I'm not around which makes me think he really is doing this to make me jealous. Although I'm hoping he's not as petty as me.
Topper has been enjoying not having me around as much and Sarah hating Rafe's girlfriend means they've been having a lot of alone time without his friends.
Me and Sarah have been invited to Reggies tonight and she told Topper she's going with me and she'll just meet him there.
"You sure you're ready to go in?" My best friend asks me as we stand outside as I try and work up the courage to walk through the open door.
"Is Rafe here?" I cringe at the thought of seeing him and his girlfriend all over each other and that I might end up crying in front of hundreds of people.
"He most likely is, yes. We don't have to go in if you don't want? We can go home and watch a movie?"
"No it's fine we didn't get ready for no reason." I assure her and she seems glad that I aren't letting her down.
We link hands and walk in together. The familiar party musk invading my senses.
Sarah is leading me somewhere and I know exactly where she's leading me. I pull my hand away. She stops to check. "What's up?"
"I'm gonna go get a drink."
She nods. "I'm gonna go find topper."
I find myself in the same position as every other party. Alone.
Having an anxious feeling about seeing Rafe here I decide to get absolutely mortal. Drinking everything in sight, people giving me strange looks as I become more drunk by the minute.
"V!" Kelce appears beside me.
"Oh hey Kellie." I pat his shoulder.
He laughs. "You're drunk again."
"Maybe a little." I try to show him an amount with my thumb and index finger.
"You coming to join us upstairs? Sarah told me to come find you."
"Is Rafe there?"
He looks curious why I asked. "No why?"
"His girlfriend doesn't like me." I giggle followed by a hiccup.
"I'm not surprised, she's definitely jealous of you." He smiles sheepishly.
"Aww Kelce, you're so sweet." I gently pat his face and pinch his cheek. He pushes my hand down chuckling before linking our arms and leading me upstairs.
Sarah greets me as she dances around the room getting me to join her. Everyone else is stood around chatting, watching and drinking. Thankfully Rafe and his slag of a girlfriend are nowhere to be seen.
I barely take notice of our surroundings as we continue to dance when I hear someone say his name.
Yep. Spoke to soon.
Rafe has entered the room with Heather clung to his arm.
I try to pretend I don't see them when Sarah stands on my foot whilst we're dancing causing me to lose my balance and stumble backwards knocking into Heather.
What was a complete accident looks deliberate.
Sarah and I stand there with our mouths open and eyes wide looking at a steaming Brunette who sadly didn't find it funny.
"I'm sorry Heather, I really didn't mean to. Sarah stepped on my foot and I lost my-"
"Watch what you're fucking doing!" She hisses. Rafe pretends not to take notice talking to topper.
"Drop the fucking attitude! I apologised, it was an accident."
"Yeah it was honestly my fault Heather, I stood on her foot by mistake." Sarah backs me up.
"What are you, her fucking parrot?" She glares at Sarah.
Topper stops talking to Rafe and immediately starts listening after hearing Heather dig at Sarah.
"Don't fucking speak to her like that!" I warn her.
"What you gonna do?" She laughs cynically.
"You might wanna wind your neck in or you'll find out."
"I might wanna find out." She squares up to me. The entire room has fell silent. Just the music playing in the background. Everyone's eyes are on us.
"V, don't." Sarah tells me. I turn round to look at her. "It's not worth it." I turn back ready to tell Heather she's not worth it when my face is met with a slap.
Heather cackles seeming pleased with herself. I look back at her with a small laugh before pulling my arm back and using all my strength to land my knuckle in the middle of her nose.
She stumbles back into the wall holding her face covered in blood whilst her eyes streamed with tears.
The room erupts into fits of 'woahs', 'damns' and laughter.
"Oh my god V! I can't believe you just did that!" Sarah squeals holding onto me jumping up and down.
"Damn, my sister has a swing." Topper ruffles my hair.
Heather is in the corner of the room crying to Rafe who is checking her nose. I can't help but laugh earning myself a hateful glare from Rafe.
Not wanting him to start arguing with me in a room full of people I decide to take myself out of the equation by leaving the party, the adrenaline still coursing through me.
As soon as I step out the door it's lightly raining but it's mildly warm.
I take the cut through towards my house trying to walk fast in my mini dress whilst getting absolutely drenched as the rain starts to become heavy.
