Chapter eight

This party is the same as last week.

The lawn and house are crowded with drunk people everywhere. Why didn't I just stay in and stare at my ceiling?

Max disappears as soon as we arrive, and I end up getting a spot on the couch and am sitting there for at least an hour when Mike walks by.

You look... different," he says after a short pause.

His eyes rake down my body and back up to rest of my face.

He doesn't even try to be subtle about the way he's assessing me.

I stay silent until his eyes meet mine. "Your clothes actually fit you tonight." He smiles

I roll my eyes of course he says something about my clothes? Which I think I'm pretty comfortable in, though the pants are a little tighter than usual.

I adjust my shirt, suddenly wishing I was wearing my normal loose clothing.

"I'm actually surprised to see you here." Mike continues

"Hm I'm a bit surprised that I ended up here again," I say as I walk away past him.

He doesn't follow, but for some reason I wish he would have.

"Max, Will you finally made it, here have a drink" the girl who was all cuddled up with Mike that one time.

"thanks Angela, but I'd rather just have one drink tonight" Max said taking the red cup from her.

"And you? Would you like a drink?" She asked holding out a red cup.

"Oh? Em no thanks I don't really drink...like that" I declined to which she pouted.

"Aww that's a shame but I'm not going to pressure you" she says softly sitting the cup down on the coffee table.

A couple of minutes go by before the people on the couch are totally tipsy or even wasted.

A few hours later, Max is tipsy. Which no surprise there, everyone else is.

"Let's play Truth or Dare," Max slurs and their small group of friends all come huddled together.
***
After a couple of rounds and many uncomfortable dares of people drunkly kissing they land on me again.

"Okay this one is specifically for you" Angela says pointing to me, "so Will truth or dare?" She asked causing all eyes to fall on me.

"Uhh...truth" I hear a few people chuckle beside me, as I was the least one to choose dare.

"Ohhh okay starting off with a truth? Kids got guts huh?" Angela says nudging Mikes arm as he smiles.

"Okay will...are you a virgin?" Angela asked.

I'm glad i declined that drink earlier, not like I was going to drink it anyway, cause I would've spitted it out, that's how shocked I was by this question.

I hear little oohs as some people encouraging me "uh-I ", I stumbled over my words as the eyes on me get more intense.

I just nod, because it's true the only thing Luke and I have done is kiss with our shirts off and a little grinding.

And yeah I know how it sounds , an 18 year old who's been in a relationship for 2 years and hasn't had their first time.

"I-I think I rather not answer" I muttered as Angela continued, "no worries, I remember my first time though" she says, And she tells us making sure to leave no details out.

As the game progresses the dares get more intense, it seemed the kissing was getting uncomfortable longer and someone had to give a lap dance.

After looking around the room, and avoiding any chance I'll Land on a dare, my name is picked on (again)
