--Ella's Pov--

"Ella, Chris, Arthur, and Talia are here for dinner," Kelsey says after lightly knocking on my door. I look at my appearance in the mirror and cringe at the dark circles under my eyes. It's January 5th and I have spent every day in bed.

I open the door and walk out seeing everyone with weak smiles and sympathetic eyes, "it will be alright," Talia says pulling me in for a hug.

"It's not as bad as you think," Arthur says looking at Twitter. I sit down in my seat beside Chris and watch as they scroll through the tending hashtags.

Freezy posted a video of the party to his channel and not even a full day later, stories came out about us. If being rejected wasn't bad enough. In the background of the video you can see us walking out of the apartment, then it cuts to Chip walking back inside with the look he gave me. The comments are speculating that we have been in a secret relationship for years. My personal favorite is the one where I supposedly tied to shove him off the roof.

"It will blow over in a day or two," Kelsey says making me laugh.

"That's what you said when the video was uploaded," I point out.

"Freezy is really sorry by the way," Chris says as I shake my head.

"He doesn't have to be. This is just dumb internet scandals. I was bound to end up in one sooner or later," I assure them.

"So what really happened on the roof?" Chris asks as the others look at him like he's crazy. I know they all want to know. As soon as it happened I left the party so nobody could see me crying, but that didn't really work out. I tell them everything from him making me a drink to hearing the countdown from inside.

"It's like you're living a romantic comedy," Arthur says making me let out a laugh, "Who needs him?" He asks.

"I don't even think I'm that upset about being rejected, ya know. Like okay I knew it was a possibility....it was just the way he did it," I tell them as I grab myself a cup of coffee.

"It was kind of shitty"

"I mean...it was a big shock. If he didn't see it coming what would he have said that would have made it better?" Kelsey says trying to play devils advocate.

"I kind of did spring it onto him. I just panicked and the count down had me freaking out. I just want him to talk to me," I complain.

"He's going to America for a video idea in a couple days. I think he's going for a week," Talia tells me.

"I guess two weeks of space will give him the time to think about everything. Fuck....I messed everything up," I groan throwing my head back.

"Look on the bright side. Now you can find another hot guy a use him to move on from Chippo," Arthur says making us all laugh.

"I don't think I'm in the clubbing mood," I tells them as Talia reveals a bag from under the table.

"I already have three outfits picked out for you. So go take a shower and meet me in your room," she says already walking away. I look at Kelsey and she gives me a worried smile.

"You did this?" I ask as the guys settle into the living room to watch tv. She nods her head and tells me to go shower and then show my thanks. I guess I don't smell the best right now.

It takes me three hours to look presentable, the guys kept me updated every five minutes, "How do I look?" I ask posing in the living room.

"Like you could be my girlfriend," Chris says making me laugh as he finishes his beer.

"I ordered the car so it should be here any minute," Kelsey says stuffing some cash into her bra. Arthur looks at her and she just smiles as he stands by the door.

"This is such an odd group but I'm here for it," Talia says grabbing her purse. I nod my head and follow the four of them after locking the door. When we arrive at the club I'm surprised how long the line is. Talia takes out a card and walks up to the front flashing it to the bouncer. He lets us in immediately and we all start asking her loads of questions. Drake blasts from the speakers as we walk to a VIP looking section. She brings us to a table where Simon, Harry, Vik, and Freezy are sitting at.

"Took you guys long enough," Simon says holding his hand out for Talia. She smiles sitting down beside him as Harry calls a waitress over. Freezy stands up and walks over asking me what I want. I ask for a Long Island and he hands his card over.

"I feel shit for everything that's happening," he says as I shake my head.

"It's fine. Shit happens. It's also not your fault," I tell him as he gives me a guilty look, "Tonight we are drinking till we forget," I tell him as he yells at my response. He's definitely the party animal of the group. I sit down with the group to wait for my drink as my phone buzzes.

Chris: save me at least one dance

Ella: always so needy

Chris: I'll be waiting

I look up and see him smiling at me. I thank the waitress as she passes me my drink. I take the straw out and chug it needing to feel something other than heart break and despair for 5 minutes. I tell whoever is beside me I'll be back and make my way to the main dance floor. Chris is getting two shots at the bar. He hands me one and we both link arms before taking it. I grimace at the taste as Chris holds a lime up to my mouth. I take it into my mouth, taking his hand and walking to the floor. I throw the lime on a random table as the song changes. His hands holds me close to his body as we move to the music. The bass shakes the floor as hands loosely wave through the air. His hands grind me against him as I rest my head on his shoulder.

I turn around and look at him and we both just forget about everything. Our lips move sloppily against each other as we give into the heat of the moment. His hand slips under my dress lifting me into his arms. I feel my body being pressed into a wall. We somehow managed to end up in a bathroom towards the back of the club. My hands run through his hair as his fingers dig into my thighs, "tell me to stop," he whispers into my ear.

"I can't," I breathe as the bottom of my dress is pushed up more.
