The Secret of Us // Oscar Piastri

12

Before she knew it, Casey was on the dance floor with Rebecca and a girl who she'd just met named Alex, who had introduced herself as Charle's girlfriend. Normally, Casey would feel really insecure being around girls who were as beautiful as Rebecca and Alex. However, the few drinks she had helped to take edge off and she was able to just have a good time with them.

They'd been back and forth to the bar, doing rounds of shots with each-other and also filling up on the drinks they were previously drinking at the table. It was safe to say, the Casey was well and truly fucked. If you had asked her which way was up, she couldn't have told you.

Right now, Casey was dancing with some guy whose name she didn't know. As soon as Va Va Voom by Nicki Minaj came on she began to dance extra hard, given how much she loved the song and that was when she felt the guy's hand on her waist as she came up behind her. She'd turned around, saw that he was cute, and decided to go with it.

Meanwhile, Oscar had just sat down at the booth in the corner with a beer in his hand. "Oscar, mate, where have you been?" Lando asked the Australian across from him. "Around." Was all Oscar said.

Oscar had been hiding out in the quieter parts of the club, just minding his own business. He really wasn't the partying type, so if he could keep himself away from all the dancing, swaying bodies he would. Occasionally, a girl who come over and hit on him. That's not too say that he was interested, he wasn't. Nonetheless, he was polite and spoke to them. He wasn't sure if they recognised him or just liked how he looked. Either way, there was only one girl who Oscar cared if she liked him and she was nowhere to be found.

"Where's Casey?" Oscar asked, taking a swig of his beer. He was asking Audrey, but it was Carlos beside him who answered him. "She's on the dance floor with Rebecca and Alex." He said, sipping on whisky.

"I thought she didn't like partying?" Oscar asked Audrey. "Normally, she doesn't unless it's with me and Rowan. However, she has had a few drinks and when she's drinking, who knows what could happen." Audrey said, sat on Lando's lap with the straw of her cocktail in-between her fingers. "I'll go with you if you want to try and find her? I've been meaning to go and find her anyway." Audrey had believed Casey when she told her nothing had happened between her and Oscar, but she could still tell that Oscar liked her and she was going to try and get them together even if it killed her.

"Yeah, okay." Oscar said, finishing his beer and standing up. Lando helped Audrey up, his hand on the small of her back. Oscar looked at the dance floor, it was just was gigantic blur of people. "I really don't like dance floors." He said, more to himself than anyone. He had his hands in his pockets and Audrey looped one of her arms around his. "Luckily for you, they're my element." She said and began walking them towards what Oscar perceived be total and utter chaos.

Oscar couldn't help but screw up his face when they squeezed themselves through the sweaty and unsteady crowd of people. It didn't take long to reach the centre of the floor. Oscar was impressed with how brutally Audrey was able to push by people, despite her small frame. Oscar spotted Rebecca. "There's Rebecca." He said, bumping his shoulder into Audrey's. "Well, she must be somewhere near by if Rebecca's here. I'll go and ask her if she's seen Casey. You stay here and have a look around." The blonde said and strutted off before Oscar who voice his displeasure at being left alone in a crowd full of people who kept bumping into him. He was a little drunk himself, but no amount of alcohol in the world could make enjoy this.

Oscar sighed and turned around to see if he could Casey. Oscar saw a guy kissing some girl and it was then that Oscar felt as if he about to be sick at his sudden realisation. The girl he was kissing was Casey. Don't Stop The Music by Rihanna was playing through the speaker and the guy's hands were on Casey's hips. He felt someone bump into him but he was too shocked at what was happening in-front of him to look to see who it was. The sound of Audrey's voice told him everything he needed to know anyway. "Oh. My. God." The blonde let slip from her red painted lips. Audrey went over to Casey, while Oscar turned and made his way out of the sea of bodies.
