Two days have gone by since Paige had gotten back to Connecticut. Sydney has been busy with classes and her big final that she had coming up in anatomy. She hasn't left her room in 32 hours, exceptions are to get food, bathroom, basketball practice, and class, obviously. She had been grinding on the studying, everyone has. Most of the students at UConn had finals tomorrow, and after finals the frats always through a huge party.

Sydney was about to fall asleep when she got a FaceTime from Drew. She instantly answered it, he was like a little brother to her and she loved when he called. "Hey bubba!" Sydney smiled at the boys face that came from the tiny screen. "Syd? I can't see you" Drew said, squinting at the screen. Sydney laughed, reaching over to her lamp and flicking it on. "Sorry I had my light off, is this better?" "Ya" Drew laughed.

"Wanna play fortnight?" He asked her. "Ugh bubba I wish I could but I got finals tomorrow, how about I call you right after I get out of class and we can play?" Sydney said to the boy who was frowning. "Okay, don't forget to call! I love you Sydney Kay" Drew sweetly sang. "I love you Drew Thomas, sleep tight" Sydney snag and hung up the phone. She turned her lamp off and set her alarms then drifted off to sleep.

The next morning by came quick. Sydney threw on a comfortable outfit, oversized sweatshirt and leggings, her go to for test days. She wore her hair in a low braid and put no makeup on. She didn't really give a fuck about what she looked like on test day.

She had to stop by Starbucks on her way, making her slightly late to class. She flipped open her laptop, quickly logging into the test. She took a deep breath then went to read the first question.

Sydney was so beyond prepared for this, one thing about her is that she study's to the point where her brain is gonna explode. She wa so ready to get drunk tonight.

"You didn't forget!" Drew gasped as he connected to Sydney's FaceTime call. "I told you I wouldn't" Sydney smiled at the sweet boy. "How was your test? Paige said you locked yourself away to study" Drew laughed, turning on his Xbox. Sydney was shocked Paige was talking about her, since she seemed so mad at the girl the last couple days. Sydney turned the key to her dorm, walking in and sitting down in her desk chair. "Haha it was good, so you wanna play duos?" Sydney asked the boy as he put his headset on. "Ya ya" Drew said, his eyes focused on the screen.

A hour later Azzi bursted into the girls dorm room, "hey can I borrow something g for tonight, I have nothing in my closet" Azzi said, helping herself to the girls closet. "Girl how did you even get in here?" Sydney said, keeping her eyes on the game. "I stole Paige's key you gave to her" Azzi said, coming over the girls shoulder to see Drew on the phone. "Hey Drew!" Azzi said waving "hey Az! When are you coming to my house? I haven't seen you in forever" Drew asked, turning off his headset. "Hey! Your ditching the game?" Sydney asked, turning of hers as well.

"I'm coming soon, don't worry" Azzi smiled at the boy. "Is Paige there? I wanna say hi" Drew asked the two girls who looked at each other. "Ah no she's not, sorry bud" Sydney answered his question, "well we gotta go, we have a party to go to" Azzi said hanging up the phone.

"You still haven't talked to P?" Azzi asked, returning to Sydney's closet. "I just can't find the right time, maybe tonight" Sydney hugged, joining the girl, going through the clothes on the hangers. "Ya tonight, well your wasted as fuck, good idea" Azzi said sarcastically. Sydney playfully rolled her eyes then held up at shirt to Azzis chest. "This will look hot on you, my boobs don't fit but your will" Sydney gave the girl the top who smiled, running to the bathroom to try it on.

"HEY WHO ORDERED THE SHOTS?!" A extremely drunk Sydney screamed. Half of the team was feeling her vibe the other not so much, the other being Paige. They have been at the party for three hours and Paige hasn't even gone near the drink table. She had a sprite, that's about it. Sydney on the other hand was chugging shots in every corner.
