The music had gotten louder without me noticing.
It seemed to come from every direction at once, vibrating through the floor and making the walls feel like they were moving with the rhythm.
The room had become almost impossible to cross without bumping into someone and the air was warmer now, heavy with the heat of too many people packed into one place.
Costumes blurred together beneath the dim lighting as people moved across the room, laughed over one another and shouted just to be heard.
Brielle had disappeared somewhere into the crowd again.
One second she was beside me, laughing as we tried to dance without stepping on anyone's feet and the next she was pulled further towards the middle of the room by someone passing between us.
I caught a glimpse of her hair a few times between people, but eventually even that disappeared.
I stayed where I was for another moment before deciding to make my way back towards the couch.
By now, it had become the unofficial place for everyone to end up whenever they needed a break from the crowd.
Once I approached the familiar couch I saw that Mattheo, Atlas and Draco were still sitting there. I scrunch my nose a little in disgust as I saw someone hanging around Malfoy's neck while sitting on his lap.
Lian wasn't far away either.
He had somehow settled into the party as though he'd been there from the beginning, his black Batman costume making him almost impossible to miss whenever the lights shifted across the room.
He was talking to someone near the edge of the dance floor, occasionally glancing back towards us as if checking to see if we were still there.
Mattheo noticed me before I said anything.
"Thank you." I happily said as Mattheo reached out my drink that he had held onto while I was dancing for the past 30 minutes.
He gave me a small smile and shifted slightly, leaving me a place to sit.
