Hate You, I Love You.

Chapter 11

"It's a just party with college students," I defended myself on the other line of call with Jillian.

[Hahaha. It would be great. Have some fun, Iris. Go meet guys..]

"I'll try,"

[That's my girl!] Jillian cheered. [Wait, is the Porsche guy coming to the party too?]

I was scanning through my closet looking for something to wear. Camille's picking me up at eight so I have to get ready already.

"I don't know, we're not that close." I found a cream colored crochet top.

[Well, I'm sure there are still hot boys in the party. Gonna drop the call now. Enjoy the party, girl babe!]

"Hahaha. I'll attend the party just for the food and drinks. Call you soon, Jilly!"

I went to my vanity dresser to prep myself. I curled my hair and put on some powder. I then wore the crochet top and paired it with denim jeans and white shoes.

I got a message from Camille that she's near the village so I quickly grab my phone, wore a silver watch, and sprayed a perfume on my neck and wrist.

As I go downstairs, mom was at the living room, smiling when she saw me.

"Aw, my Iris looks so pretty. I'm sure you'll meet some real guys at the party. But remember, if you're going to make out.. use protect—"

"Mom, ewww." I didn't let her finish as I cover my ears in disgust and embarrassment.

Mom laughed and gave me a kiss on the check. "Just don't drink too much, okay? Have fun."

"I won't, mom. I'll be back before 12." I answered back.

"Eleven," Mom corrected.

I met with Camille outside the village and the elk house isn't that far and we have arrived after thirty minutes of traveling.

When the car passed by the elk house, my eyes couldn't focus on one thing because there were a lot happening. There are college students going to the entrance of the elk house, some students playing beer pong on the porch, and some students were busy chatting at the front yard while holding their drinks.

After Camille parked her car, we got out and I was surprised with the loud music.

"Aren't we going to get a noise complaint?" I asked her.

Camille laughed. "Don't worry, we're far from the neighborhood. Let's go?"

We went inside the house, and Andrea was there.

"Oh my gosh, Iris. You look hot." Andrea teased.

Sophie appeared and handed me out a drink. "Let's Party!"

Loud music was playing and strobe lights were flashing as we make way to the backyard. There was a huge rectangular pool at the center and college students were everywhere.

This is not just a one department party... this is like the whole college department of Harton.

I wanted to stick with Camille but I got hungry and make my way towards the food station. There was a fruit punch station on the side and it looks inviting that I had to give it a try. After one glass, it tasted good. I took another cup and finished it in one gulp.

"Hi," a random guy greeted me.

"Hi," I answered back.

"What department are you from?"

"Health sciences. You?" I asked back.

"Engineering. Are you a freshman?"

I nodded.
