I arrived back at my room and opened the door to find 3 squealing girls. I was instantly attacked with questions like: "what's his name?!" "Is he single!?" "How old is he?!"

"Chill out!" I yelled and they all stopped and stared intently, waiting for my answers. "his name is Carter, he is our age I think, and I have no idea if he's with someone! I only spent 2 minutes with him, I don't know his life story! Why do you want to know, anyway?" I said and they all looked at me blankly. "what do you you mean 'why do we want to know'! Because he's GORGEOUS!" Alexa shrieked. "Really?" I asked, I agree he was fairly handsome, but we didn't even know the boy!

I got the same blank look once again. "what!? You don't like him?!" Megan asked. "well, no! I only just met him, how could I like him!" I said. Silence once again. I'm pretty strange like that, I don't usually fall for someone based on how good looking they are. it's probably because I've always had lots of guy friends all my life, some of them were amazingly attractive! But I didn't like them that way because I didn't want that relationship with someone who I was friends with, it would be like dating Scarlet or Alexa! "maybe he's a complete asshole!" I laughed and flopped down on my bed. "plus I have a boyfriend" I said. "really! Who is he!?" Scarlet asked. "his name is Andrew, he goes to a different university" I said and I got a pic of him up in my phone. "oooh, not a bad choice!" Alexa laughed and we all did the same.

We chilled in our room for a few hours, talking about celeb crushes, makeup, and of course the girls wanted to talk about Carter! We were in the middle of talking about our favourite foundations, when the door swung open, once again it was Carter. "There's gonna be a party on the beach, you coming?" He said surrounded by his friends, who the girls basically melted for. "do you ever knock!? What if I was naked or some shit!" I said, kind of angrily. "lucky me, I guess! Are you coming or not!?" he laughed "girls? You wanna go?" I said and I turned to them, they nodded quickly. "ok see you there then!" Carter said as he walked off with his friends.

Me and the girls got ready for the beach. I wore a floral printed bikini, Alexa wore a black and white halter neck bikini, Scarlet wore a Aztec printed bather, and Megan wore a pink bikini with white polka dots. I also put on my anklet, it was made of rope and had little sea shells tied into it, but the best part was that it had a little, sharp shark tooth dangling from it. "ready?" I yelled to the girls as we left the dorm. "ready!" They all shouted in response.

We got to the beach to find the party was already started. "wow... I knew it was gonna be a party but, this is insane!" Alexa said as we walked over. there was a tiki bar, blasting music, hundreds of people, and a huge stage with loads of different performers.

As soon as we got there, someone handed us flower crowns and drinks. we all looked at each other as if to say i can tell this is gonna be fun! We all split up and I headed to the bar. "one margarita please" I asked, this was my first party so I was gonna get hella drunk! "Coming right up" the barman said. I watched him make my drink and then picked it up off the counter when he finished. "thanks" I said and I turned around, not looking where I was going.

Smash

Great, I was laying on the floor for the second time in one day! only this time I was covered in alcohol! "Oh god I'm so sorry!" I said as I stood up and brushed myself off. "well, fancy walking into you!" The person said and I looked up. Carter...of course I walked into Carter! "Ugh, you." I said and he laughed "come on, am I really that bad?" He smiled sarcastically and I laughed. I may not have known him long, but he certainly knew how to make me laugh! "Here, I'll buy you another drink to apologise" he said and he ordered another margarita for me, and a beer for himself.

"So what course are you taking?" He asked as he sipped his beer. "hair and makeup, I'm really into that shit if you can't tell by my hair" I said and he giggled. "you?" I asked. "Interior design, I spend hours thinking of new ways to create amazing rooms! Kinda dorky but, eh. it's what I enjoy so that's all that matters, right?" He said and I smiled "right! Do you have any tattoos?" I asked and he held out his arm. it was a little symbol of some kind. "It means warrior" he said "its stunning!" I said in awe as I looked at the marking. "do you have any?" He asked and I held out my wrist. "wow! That's so simple but really beautiful!" He said and I blushed "you made that sound way more poetic than I did!" I laughed. Suddenly a new performer came on the stage. "hey, let's go watch!" He said as he dragged me towards the stage, our second round of drinks in our hands.

We all danced, hundreds of us! I was spilling drinks and jumping up and down in the sand. My vision was starting to get blurred and my speech was beginning to slur after a stupid amount of alcohol! I was on my sixth drink when the party started to end. I couldn't find any of the girls, so I wondered back to our dorm by myself.

"Hey!" I heard someone shout from behind me in the dorm corridor. I turned around and all of a sudden I was up against a wall! It took me a second to realise that someone was kissing me! To be honest, I was totally pissed by then, so I let them kiss me and didn't fight back in the slightest. whoever they were, they were an amazing kisser! We finally broke the kiss and I looked up at who it was. "I had to do that at least once..." they said drunkenly.

Carter!?
