I Know Places In The Dark (H.S.)

Chapter 4

Marie's P.O.V.

We arrived at a big house that looked kind of like a beach house. There was loads of cars in the front lawn and loud music. As I was walking to the front door, I could see red solo cups littered on the ground. I feel bad for the owner of this house.

"I'm guessing this is your first party?" He walks by my side to the front door.

"Yeah.." I said embarrassed.

I was just never invited to things like these.

He opens the door and we walk in. The house was a three story, but it seemed like all the people were on the first floor and in the backyard.

"Marie?!" I look to my left and see Nathalie walking towards me with that pale girl I met the other day, Lola is her name.

"Hey!" I walk up to her with Zayn behind me.

She looks at Zayn and flash of fear was in her eyes but she looks back at me and smiles.

"You want a drink?" I nod at her question. She hands me a red solo cup filled with bitterness and freedom.

She hands Zayn a drink but I can tell she felt uncomfortable.

"Well I'll be outside. Come out and hang with me whenever you can." She and Lola walks out.

"What do you usually do at parties?" I turn to Zayn.

"I just drink and chill."

"With who?"

"With Harry and Liam." I thought Harry didn't like Zayn?

"Ohh.." I took a sip of my drink and out of boredom, I look around the house.

"You know this is Liam and Harry's house right?" What?!

I choke on my beverage and start coughing.

"What??" I look at Zayn with worry. I don't want to be around Harry after what happened today.

"Yeah.. Is there a problem with that?" He looks at me suspicious.

"N-no.. I think I need some fresh air.." He nods at me and tells me he'll just stay inside and wait for me when I'm done.

I walk out to the backyard. There was a huge swimming pool and a jacuzzi. People were dancing and talking. Everyone looked like they were having a great time.

I searched for Nathalie since she's the only person I actually know at this party. As I was walking around, I stumble on my damn heels and crashed into someone. I look up and see the pissed off green eyed guy.

"I'm so sorry Harry!" I grab his cup off the ground and hand him it.

The alcohol spilled all over his shirt and pants. People were walking by scared of Harry's reaction while some were laughing. Some random girl hands me a napkin which I try to attempt to clean off Harry, but he pushes my hand off of him.

"I think you've done enough." He huffs.

I walk away with embarrassment written all over my face.

Why doesn't he like me? I huff at my thoughts and finally find Nathalie but was stopped by Fay.

Great.

"Hey, you're Marie right?" She sounds drunk.

"Yeah.." I answer quickly to avoid a conversation.

She half laughs then walks away. It looked like she was going the same way Harry was.

I turn back and walk to Nathalie.
