The picture is of everyone's outfits not exactly what they look like. I will think of casting later.

Turned out, everyone was already gathered in Katerina's apartment.

I walked in and grinned at the sight before me. My group had some wicked style. I admired everyone's outfit before greeting.

"Well looks like this squad is about to be the best dressed squad tonight!" I said excitedly.

"Sure looks that way," Tamesha ginned.

"So what's the move for tonight?" I asked glancing around to see if anyone knew what the plan was.

"Well... I'm no longer in a club mood. Kickbacks and house parties are up my alley tonight," Katerina spoke up.

I nodded my head.

"That's cool, originally I had wanted to go to the club and to some house parties but I'm not wearing any heels and don't feel like trying to persuade the bouncer to let me in," I said thinking of a plan.

"You could have gotten in easily," Khalil winked at me.

I rolled my eyes smiling to myself and ignored him.

"Are we going UNCG parties or A&T parties?" Simone asked.

"Good question, I want to hit up both. Who drove?" Lauren asked.

Khalil, Tamesha, Aseem, Josh, Joshua and I raised our hands.

It surprised me that Khalil and Joshua raised their hands because they also lived in Campus green, just three streets away from Katerina. Plus they were roommates. Then again, Aseem and I could have carpooled since we lived in the same apartment complex but we drove to Katerina's place separately.

"Well there won't be an issue in getting over to Province and Highland Hall whenever we decide we want to get to UNCG," Lauren said.

"We can first hit up the parties around, after all I know of several here," Joshua said.

Everyone nodded their head in agreement.

"Khalil, you're not hosting tonight?" Jazmine asked.

Khalil shook his head.

"Really, dagnabit," Katie shook her head disappointed.

"What a shame, then we wouldn't have to go nowhere if you did," Nick stated.

I chuckled to myself. Nick, Jazmine, Josh and Katie were all of his party friends. They loved to turn up and so did Khalil. But Khalil balanced out his priorities a bit better, while all Katie, Joshua, Jazmine and Nick basically just partied and went to class. I really hoped that they did their homework as well. At least they went to class too. As far as I know, they were more intelligent than one would think from their party habits.

Apparently, Nick was accepted to M.I.T. but he wanted to go to an HBCU near his home. And he wanted to party. He would apply himself later in his graduate year. He told me that undergraduate year, he would just make sure that he enjoyed his college experience while making no lower than a 3.7 gpa. Last year he had a 4.0, so I was pretty sure he could handle himself this year as well.

Jazmine had a perfect score on her S.A.T's and she had a 4.5 gpa in high school. If anyone didn't drink but knew how to have as much fun as me, it was her. She excelled in her academics as well. She was in her second year but her credits made her classification to be a Junior. She had an accumulative 3.89 gpa last year. She once told me last year that she was planning on graduating early because she wanted to travel for a year. She always desired to go to Spain, Tanzania, Pakistan, Brazil, Nigeria and China. She wanted to be a diplomat when she grew older. She wanted to be fluent in multiple languages. Now she is only fluent in Spanish, Japanese and English. After she travelled doing a paid internship, she planned on going to graduate school with Joshua.

Joshua and Jazmine had been best friends since 8th grade and always stuck together. Unfortunately, they did not have the same classes because Jazmine took on more challenging courses. Jazmine always told me that if Joshua applied himself then he could have skipped 9th and possibly 10th grade. But he was too lazy and immature to apply himself. He was all about living in the moment. He didn't want to have to spend hours of studying material when he could just take the easy way out and excel at the level he was in now.

Katie was a different story. She was undeclared and still had no desire for any type of work. Katie was the type of student that teachers could see that she had potential but Katie herself didn't have the same thoughts. She maintained a standard 3.25 gpa each semester. She loved to party and hated studying but she promised herself to at least stay on dean's list.

If anyone asked those four where the library was, then they would look at you a bit weirdly because they had yet to step foot inside. But, if anyone knew where the hottest parties were at, it would sure be those four. Although they did not hang out with the regular crew as much, I was glad that they decided to join us today because they would for sure make my night an unforgettable one.

"Hmm, which parties in campus green are we trying to hit up right now amigos?" Jesús asked the group.

"Let's go to the one three doors down," Joshua said.

"Geuh-ruhm, I think everyone can agree to that," Hye-su said and everyone nodded their head and started walking out the door.

"Wait!" I called out almost screeching.

Everyone gave me a look in confusion.

"We need to take a picture together! We all look amazing, plus we're yall going to pre-game?" I asked.

"We already pre-gamed while you were outside. We know you don't drink nor smoke," I nodded my head in response to what Aseem said.

"But I still want my pictures," I stated.

"Okay everyone, out in front of the apartment for the picture," Katerina said directing everyone one.

I walked outside and set-up my phone so that it stood on the phone stand on the back of the case. I set the timer then ran to the group to take the picture.

"3, 2, 1, cheese," my phone called out.

My phone took the picture and I observed it. Man my group was a good looking group. Any party we should up to would be happy of our presence.

After the picture we walked to the party in our mini groups with then the big crew we were.

Mason walked next to me.

"Are you excited for your first A&T party night?" I asked him expectantly.

"You know it!" he said with a huge grin.

"I'll let you know now, things can get a little wild tonight," I warned.

"The crazier the better," he replied back.

"Alright, await the parties of your night my dear young grasshopper," I said wiggling my eyebrows up and down quickly.

He just laughed.

We arrived in front of the house and there was someone at the door to greet us.

"Come on in! Drinks in the back! Turn-up!" the guy at the door yelled as he opened the door to let us in. The party was already hoppin', lights off with glow in the dark decorations everywhere, they had strobe light, people were dancing to "turn down for what"... the party night had just begun.
