Conrad

"hey guys" i heard behind me.
Hope she didn't hear our conversation.

I turned around to see her.
She looked so pretty
Snap out of it Conrad

I must have been in my thoughts staring at her because next thing I know she's loud talking in my face.

"you just think I've been shitfaced before-" that's all I had to hear before I let out a laugh.

I know you've been shitfaced before. In fact I was there.
But I didn't say anything, just walked away.

I sighed getting out some clothes for the party.
At least this time she has a boyfriend so she won't be letting nasty teenage boys touch her lips.

Belly

We walked through the front door. Her house is massive.
And there's a lot, and I mean a lot more people here than I was expecting.

"shit this is what you call a rager" jere yelled in my ear. I laughed in response nodding. Low key speechless

I checked my phone getting a text from Cory. He said he'll here in a few minutes.

I went to the kitchen and poured myself a drink.
I took it down. disgusting shit right there.

but I drank the rest and took my chaser to get it out of my mouth.

I walked into the main area and spotted jere already with a girl on his arm.
typical

I waited around saying hi to a few people until Cory arrived.

"hey belly" Cory smiled.

"Hey Cory!" I smiled excitedly- that drink must've had an extra kick to it or something.

We went to the kitchen for him to take his first and for me to have my second drink.

He grabbed my hand and brought me to the main area where some people were standing around, some people making out, and some dancing.

I spotted Conrad from across the room. I could feel his eyes on me.
Why did he hate me so much?

I made eye contact with him as he sipped from the red cup in his hand.
he looked really really good.

Cory took my hand and spun me around a few times. I was getting tipsy.

We laughed and danced together but I could still feel Conrad's eyes on me.
I did the only thing I could think of.

I looked over at him confirming my assumption as our eyes met, and then I brought Cory's face to mine and kissed him.

We were basically making out- no tongue tho.
We kinda spun a bit to where I could see Conrad while I was kissing Cory.

I squinted my eyes so you couldn't fully tell I was opening my eyes.

From what I could barely see Conrad was barely watching but he had a glare on his face. A mean look

Does he not like Cory or something?

I heard a throat clear next to us. We stopped and looked over...
Oh, It was Cory's ex girlfriend, the reason we ever started this.

"Hey babe can i talk to you?"
She said. She looked impatient.

I was kinda excited for Cory. But he didn't feel the same.
"Cant you see im busy?" He replied bluntly.
Weird.
She scoffed and walked away.

He looked at me his eyebrows raised
"that was your chance Cory why didn't you go?" I asked bummer for him

He rolled his eyes, "im pretty sure she was drunk, I want her to be genuine" he said blankly.

I just nodded- even I could tell she was fully sober.

"Im gonna go to the bathroom real quick" he said then walked away

Maybe he gets weird when he's drunk?

I kept swaying to the music by myself.

"did your boy leave?" I heard a voice in my ear.
I flinched a tad but immediately recognized it.

"he's just going to the bathroom, I bet you already knew that- you've been stalking me all night" i said

I don't really have a filter when im drunk.
I felt his breath on my ear. I could smell the alcohol on his breath.

"he's probably going to meet up with the girl he just sent away, you should probably stay away from him" he said his voice got deeper.

I rolled my eyes and started walking off the dance floor.

I could feel him follow. I smiled to myself.
"why are you concerned on who I choose to stay away from"

"never said I was"

"you don't have to it's obvious"

"it's obvious that he is just using you to get back at his ex" he said nonchalantly.

I turned around to face him. he was closer than I thought so I ended up having to look up at him.

"what's your problem Conrad?" I asked getting upset.

"no problems here" he said amused.

"am I just a game to you? someone that's easy to laugh at" I asked my eyes getting teary.

how could someone like him be so mean?

he took a step closer leaning down.

I could feel his breath on my lips.

"just the opposite" he said getting as close to my lips as humanly possible without touching them.

someone came over me in that moment. my head leaned in, but just in that second he patted my shoulder and walked right past me.
