Y/N POV:
Sarah is my best friend since birth. Our parents grew up together and eventually bought houses on the same street. This led to me and Sarah being together our whole childhood, it was awesome living near someone your age. We are 18 now, time has flown by so fast. We hung around with the Kooks and the Pogues. For some reason we got along with both groups very well, each crowd is different though. A big problem was Sarahs brother, he was always nice to me but him and Sarah had a rocky relationship. He hates the Pogues, he does not like when we go and hangout with them.
Me and Sarah were sitting on her balcony chatting, and we were disrupted by Rafe.
Rafe: "Yo, I am throwing tonight. I need you guys to invite some people. I got some shit I have to take care of." He said frantically, he looked stressed out.
Y/N: "Sure, we can help." I said smiling.
Sarah: "Is it cool for us to invite the Pogues?" She said with a shoulder shrug.
Rafe: "I think you know the answer to that. Now get going please." He says shaking his head, exiting the balcony.
Me and Sarah both split a group of people and started texting, we were the perfect people for this job. Eventually, it was time to get ready for the party to begin. The parties here were pretty casual, but I still make sure I look the best. I chose a pair of light wash jean shorts, and a floral corset top, pairing it with plain white sneakers. I did my very light, natural summer makeup.
Sarah: "Are you ready to head down Y/N? I think I hear the music starting up and people pulling in."
Y/N: "Hell yeah, let's go." I say while tying my laces up.
Me and Sarah always take two shots at the beginning of parties, it gets us going. We took our shots, made our rounds of talking to the guests, and we eventually got split up. I was sort of wandering around about hour 2 into the party, I winded up sitting on the couch at the balcony again. I decided to sip my drink and people watch, it was my absolute favorite thing to do. After about 5 minutes, Rafe came walking out onto the balcony. There were a few other people up there, but not many. Rafe makes me nervous, just for the sole reason that he is older and very attractive. He sat down with me and gave me a wink.
Rafe: "How is the night going for you Y/N?" He says while adjusting himself to get comfortable.
Y/N: "It is really good, I am having a nice time." I say smiling at him. A few minutes of silence goes by until he speaks up again.
Rafe: "You know Y/N, it's a shame you guys hang around with them Pogues. I really think you are special and deserve better people."
I could tell he was drunk, he never expresses emotions like this.
Y/N: "Thank you Rafe, I appreciate it. I think they aren't too bad though, you never gave them a real chance. Everyone just sticks to Kooks vs Pogues because they feel like it's necessary." I say sipping my drink.
Rafe: "I guess, but those Pogues do shady shit. I don't like when you're with them, I feel like you're unsafe." He was starting to lean his head on my shoulder.
I couldn't tell if this was friendly or not, you know because I basically grew up with him too?
Y/N: "What are you doing Rafe, you're drunk." I say giggling, picking his head off my shoulder.
Rafe: "Im drunk, but I know what I am saying. Ive always had a thing for you Y/N. I just want what's best for you, I'm just looking out for you."
Y/N: "Aw, thanks. You are gonna regret saying this all in the morning though." I exhale. "Im gonna get back to the party now, I'll see you around." I stand up.
Rafe pulls me back down, but this time I'm in his lap. How the hell did I land here. Our faces were just inches apart now, this was different. Rafe never acted this way towards me, it was new.
Y/N: "Rafe, what are you do-" I try saying, but I am cut off.
Rafe: "Don't walk away, I want you here with me Y/N." He says while snaking his hands around my waist.
This was so random, but I cant lie it was amazing. I always had a little crush on Rafe, hopefully after tonight we can be something.
