Luna's POV:

The number of people that were at this party was insane! There wasn't one person here that wasn't drinking, almost everyone had a red plastic cup in their hands. The strong scent of cigarettes filling the room was making me feel dizzy a bit as I tried to pass through the heavy crowd. Looking at my surroundings, I thought I recognized someone who looked very familiar to me. However, the dark lights at this party were making it very difficult to see who it was. Choosing to approach them, I realized it was Eric!

Elijah introduced Eric to me when I was in middle school, but I didn't get to know him much since he was a few years older than me. Considering that he hangs around with Danny, I'm hoping he's a bit nicer than him. He did try to separate Ren and Danny when they were fighting this morning, I should probably thank him for that. But as I continued to walk in his direction, I saw that he was sitting down on a couch with a girl sitting on his lap.

Seeing that she was practically pressing her breasts against his chest, I could instantly tell he was enjoying his time by his facial expression. However, that smile of his quickly went away the second he made eye contact with me. He looked like he had seen a ghost with how surprised he was, watching him shove the girl off his lap, he stood himself up and he began to walk where I stood.

"Luna? What are you doing here?"

He said with confusion in his voice as he looked around us, is he wondering if I came alone?

"I'm here to find out what happened to Elijah, I know it sounds dumb...but-"

My words were caught off as Eric suddenly grabbed my hand! Pulling me away from the crowded living room, I saw that he was taking us to the backyard where the pool was. Though I instantly felt a cold chill pass down my spine! I feel someone's dark gaze glaring at me, but who? Frantically looking around to see who it was, I was able to pinpoint my discomfort. It was the girl that was on Eric's lap from earlier, I guess she assumes that I'm trying to take him from her. Girls could be so ruthless with their jealousy, that it's almost frightening. But I'm curious, does Eric have a girlfriend or someone that he's interested in?

With Eric leading us outside, he pulled out two chairs for us to sit at. I'm just glad there weren't many people out here, unlike the last time I came. It's a lot quieter, compared to the inside. Accepting his kind gesture, I sat myself down as Eric and I stared at the lit-up pool in front of us...

"Sorry for dragging you out here, it was just hard to understand you inside that loud crowd and with the music."

He apologetically explained as he pulled out a pack of cigarettes...

"Oh! No, it's fine...I prefer to talk outside. But as I was saying...I came here to find out what exactly happened to Eli. Danny was the one who..."

Going into detail about how I came here, the moment I brought up Danny's name, Eric already shook his head in disapproval. I felt a lot more comfortable with Eric than with Danny, though I still had my guard up. You could never be too careful when it comes to these parties, especially when alcohol is mixed in with it...

"So that's what happened...makes sense why you're here."

He responded as he lit up his cigarette, as he began to smoke he looked so deep in thought...

"I know this isn't any of my business, but...you really shouldn't smoke. Especially when you're still so young."

I said while trying not to breathe in the smoke, I always hated this smell. Never understood why people would choose to fuck up their lungs this way. Just suck on a lollipop or chew some gum if you're stressed-
