Part 14 - The Party. (Yes, that Party)

THIRD PERSON POV:

"You haveeee to come!" Lucas exclaims, dragging Mike down the hallway as the ravenette groans. "Please! Everyone will be there!"

"Except me," Mike says with a smile.

Will chuckles. "Lucas, if Mike doesn't want to go you can't force him," He says reasonably. He glances at Mike shyly. "It would be cool if you did, but you don't have to."

"Why would anyone want me to be at the Junior Party?" Mike groans.

"Oh gAwrsh," Lucas says with his best pick-me girl voice. "I dunno, maybe, you're super pretty and everyone adores you!" He exaggerates his hand gestures and facial expressions.

Mike reels. "What the fuck, dude, don't do that," He says with a laugh.

"Well, I'm going," Max says, skating past before kicking up her skateboard. "Lucas is going, Dustin is going. Will?"

Will nods. "Yeah, I'll be there," He says.

Something twitches in Mike's chest and he finds himself sighing. "Okay, fine, just this once," He says, rolling his eyes. Will beams, and the strange thing that twitched in Mike's chest calms down.

"Great!" Max says sarcastically. "And remember, 'Don't do drugs and stay in school'," Max does her best impression of their principal. The whole friend group laughs.

Lucas pulls Max into a hug and affectionately kisses the top of her head. "We should get going if we're gonna make it," Lucas says, sounding a little sheepish with a small awkward laugh. "It starts at six."

"Six?!" Will exclaims. He grabs Mike's wrist and pulls him towards the door. "C'mon! I have to pick out my outfit!"

Mike smiles softly as he stares at their intertwined hands while Max and Lucas watch them leave with two unamused expressions.

"We should follow them."

"Yeah."

"Mike's our ride to the party."

"...shit."

...

Music was blasting and the main lights were turned off to make the disco even prettier. One of the wealthier kids decided to host the party this year, thank god or no one would fit.

Currently, the song blasting was Beyoncé's new 'Break My Soul' song that came out recently.

"What do you want to do first?" Max questions Lucas as the two disappear in the crowd. Mike and Will exchange a slightly annoyed look. Those two will definitely hit the dance floor after a few drinks.

"It already smells of alcohol," Will says loudly in slight disgust. Mike shrugs, walking over to the drinks.

There was a huge variety of choices, mainly alcoholic. But Mike took a cup of plain fruit punch and watched Will take the same. Mike drank a few gulps before smiling at Will, who was watching the dancing.

"Do you want to dance?" Mike questions. "I bet someone will spin you around."

Will scoffs. "And risk falling? No thanks." Will makes a bleh sound before grabbing Mike's hand with his own free one and pulling him into a seperate room.

This room was quieter, but still had the party vibe of flashing blue lights.

Will plopped down on a couch and sighed, his head leaning back. Mike sat next to him, trying to ignore the butterflies in his stomach as he watches Will's adam's apple bob up and down.
