Reckless (Ellie Williams)

sorority party

The house was vibrating from how loud the music is. Dina grabbed my hand as her and Jesse led me through the crowd. There's so many people, I don't understand how they know where they're going. I think we just walked through the living room of the sorority, or maybe it was the dining room. Fuck this house is huge. 

"What's your choice of poison?" Dina pulled me up closer to the counter inside of the kitchen. "Whatever poison is available!" I'm not sure she even heard me, I barley understood her. She nodded her head and began to pour us drinks. She handled me my cup and already began to down hers. "This is going to be a long night for me." Jesse laughed while watching Dina pour her 2nd drink and finish it. I can't let her go in on her own. I lifted my cup to my lips and began to drink it as fast as I could. "Fuck yeah, Here." Dina handed me another, "Let's see if you can hang Roomy." I grabbed the drink from her and gulped it down.

Dina held onto my hand and pulled me through the house into the room where the music was playing from. Bodies pushed against each other, dancing to the beat. There's hardly any space in here, I don't think - Being pulled from my thoughts, literally, Dina was yanking me through the crowd till she found a spot she found comfortable and started dancing.

 Feeling the alcohol starting to settle in my body, I let loose and let the music take control. Whatever this song is, it's fucking amazing. I love this beat. I felt a body being more pushed against me. I look to my right and see this beautiful human looking at me. With my body now facing hers, she moves in closer. Following the beat our bodies move together.

She wrapped an arm around the back of my neck while I placed a hand on her hip. Swaying to the beat, she moved in closer to where there was no longer any space between. I looked over for Dina in the midst of the dancing and she was no where in sight. No fucking way. "You okay?" A soft voice spoke, I hardly heard it over the music. I made eye contact with the girl I'm dancing with to see concern written all over her face. 

"Yeah I'm good, nothing to worry about. I was just lookin for my room mate that I came with." We slowly stopped dancing to the beat. "I can try to help you find them!" She grabbed my hand and pulled us through the crowd. Does everyone just have this house memorized.

"Do you have any guesses where we may find her?" I looked around the area we were in now to see if i could spot her. "Maybe in the kitchen?" It's the only other place in this house that Dina took me to. The girl began walking in the direction I assumed the kitchen was in, leading me through the bodies that crowded the hallway. 

"ROOMMYY" A drunken yell was directed at me as soon as I stepped into the kitchen. "Take a shot with, No, come take multiple shots with me" alright, lets do this. I made my way over to Dina, who already had sets of shots set up. "You're gonna keep us safe right?" I looked over at Jesse. He chuckled, "Yes, I'm completely sober and am prepared to deal with this mess."

One by one we took the shots. I've lost count of what number we were at. Oh there's that pretty girl again. I made eye contact with the girl I had been dancing with earlier and walked through the crowd of people to get to her. Whenever I reached her, I had leaned in close enough for her to hear me over the music "Hey, I didn't catch your name earlier. I lost you after you helped my find room mate." I continued to tell her my name and thank her for helping me. "I'm Kat, it was no problem giving you a hand."

Kat. Why does that name sound familiar? Dina came pushing through the people to get to me. "Hey we're heading outside to smoke, you coming?" I looked back at Kat. "You go on ahead, I don't smoke." Dina looped her arm through my arm and led me outside.
