The music pumps through my ears and I move to the rhythm with my body and a little bit with my butt. I can't help it.
Tapping my friend Julia on the shoulder I get her attention, having to shout over the music to be heard.
"Just getting another drink!"

"Drink some alcohol Atty it'll ease you up." She shouts back and continues her grinding session with the guy next to her.

I head over to the bar, pushing and shoving people out of my way.

"Cherry coke please." It was like, the only thing I drank in this club. Also on the 'never gets spiked list' that I keep updated in my head.
Julia, my best friend, helps with that list. She's been spiked at least five times. I took care of her though, thats how we worked, I was the caring and she was the careless. She's been my best friend since diapers, I don't think there was ever a time we weren't friends.
We did everything together...well until her drinking started, it separated us like nothing else. I couldn't relate to her crazy nights and constant stream of hookups, I would just nod like I understood and laugh with her.
I secretly wish I could be like her...crazy, reckless and wild. But I had too many responsibilities to focus on, my school work and my mother...my father, Thomas died when I was younger so I don't remember much. After his death I didn't really see my mom around a lot, she threw herself into her work, and was never around much.
So I lived the dream through Julia's stories. Meanwhile I was still green, never been drunk, and had only her as a friend. My party experience was pretty low, but I had been convinced that tonight would be fun and tagged along with Jules and her other party friends who I hadn't seen since we got here.

"Here you go love." The guy behind the bar gave me a cheeky wink. I inwardly gag.

Heading back to the floor I spot Julia face sucking with the guy she had been all over earlier. I can't imagine doing that, making out with someone you just met and then forgetting them once your done.
Julia's first kiss was to some stranger at a party. Your first kiss should...I don't know, mean something? I wanted mine to be for someone special. Not some random bloke I just met. She's tried to set me up numerous times, she just didn't get it. I turn around, prepared to head somewhere else, the last thing I wanted to watch was someone stick their tongue down my best friends throat.

"Hey gorgeous, haven't seen you here before." I look up to meet the unfamiliar eyes of some hottie, with gorgeous green eyes.

"Uh no I just came here tonight with my friend...she uh, she's busy. " he nodded, not really looking all that together.

"What's your name?" This was beyond my comfort zone and I wanted to slap Julia for ever talking me into this. Stranger danger.

"Candice." I lie, I wasn't about to tell him my real name.

"Wallace, want a dance?" I couldn't excactly say no, I didn't have the guts. I tried to be brave like Julia and took a deep breath.
"Uh no that's okay?" He scoffed and left looked my up and down and I squirmed under his gaze.

"What, you some kinda church girl with morals? Don't do strangers?" He smirked. Well that worked well.

"N-no its just that-"

Before I could finish a screeching sound comes from all around us. The music went dead and water starts to fall from the roof.

Fire alarm.

I start to panic and look around for Julia. Everything is in chaos, people running left, right, and center. Where was Julia? People shoved and pushed me around much harder than I had shoved them earlier when I was trying to get to the bar. That was for them to move, this was them shoving to live. Screaming both from the crowd and the alarm bounced off the walls. I tried not to get knocked to the floor, knowing I wouldn't be able to get up once I was down. Not with this chaos.

"Julia!" My voice dissappears amongst the other noises. My hair, drenched, clings to my wet face.

"Julia!" I try to get past people, moving to wherr I saw her last.
I felt something grip my arm and I turned around to see Wallace.

"Come on we need to get out!" he started to pull me towards one of the exits.
"No I have to find my friend!" He ignored my protest and pulled me, rather roughly, through everything. My feet slipping the wet floor.

"Let me go! I have to find my friend! Let go!" I look around frantically. And my eyes land on an unmoving figure near the bar. He stood there, looking around looking for someone until his eyes landed on mine. My mind went blank and I completely forgot where I was, what I was doing. His big figure straitened when he saw me. It felt like it was just us in the world or like everything slowed and I felt drawn towards him...just looking into his hazel eyes through my light blue ones gave me goosebumps. Until Wallace yanked on my arm again, without my resistance he had managed to get us closer to the exit.

"Stop! Let me go!" I couldn't get my feet planted on the soaked foor. I whipped my head around back to the man at the bar...he was angry now, his eyes no longer on me but on Wallace.

My arm felt like it was being ripped from its socket, people still running everywhere. I did the only thing I could think of, I kicked him where the son don't shine. Or well I meant to, he moved just in time and I lost my balance, feeling my feet leave the ground. I saw the metal ladder leading up to the DJ coming uncomfortably close to me before....well before I hit it, with my face. All I could see was feet...heels, boots, sandals. Thousands of them, probably not as many where there before I hit my head but there was definitely more now. One in particular caught my eye, thick boots that were definitely not for clubbing coming towards...me. I blinked and then there were four, then two, then six of them. My head swirled and I faded into the dark abyss.

Chapter 1 done! Hope you enjoyed it!
