In The Rain

chpt. 3

The night of the party, I hear the doorbell ring, it's Conan. He came over to help me prepare for the party.

I hear the door open, I guess one of my parents opened the door for him. I hear footsteps approaching my room and as I turn around all I see is Conan at the door wearing this overgrown black designed t-shirt with a white shirt peeking from under and some black cargo pants. He went for a basic look.

"Are you ready for the party?"

"I think so..."

I was wearing the simplest dress I could find, I didn't wanna overdress and embarrass myself.

We arrived at Jian's place and there was already a lot of people. I head inside with Conan to get some drinks and greet some of our other friends. I hear people getting louder and louder, I'm a party person but not get drunk at 4am and get the cops called on you party person.

"Celestia?"

"Oh, hi Jian," I greeted the boy.

"You up for a game of spin the bottle?"

What the hell.

"Ah, no thank you..." I say trying to walk away from the conversation

"What's wrong Celestia? Scared of a little kissy kiss?" Another boy said making smooching noises and awkwardly moving his body

"I'd rather just sit and watch." I replied with a disgusted look.

People started to set up in an empty area, Jian placed an empty soda glass bottle in the middle as others sat around it. Christopher was one of few to sit around it, he looked like he was forced to sit there but secretly wanted to be playing regardless.

Conan sat a few people away from Christopher. He was confused as to why I didn't join because it would've been my chance to MAYBE kiss Christopher but this time I just wanted to relax and watch the fun.

"OKAY PARTY PEOPLE!" Jian clapped his hands together "We all know how to play, spin, land, then kiss. Not too hard, let's start!" He seemed too enthusiastic to play a game we've been playing since year 1.
