Carrington

39

Friday 11pm

"Guys we are late." I laugh looking at the time.

"No, Tara is making us late to her own party." Grace jokes making everyone laugh.

"Tara stop taking pictures." Katrina laughs at her and we finally leave the house.

We hop in a Uber and make our way to the club.

-

"Girls!" Johnnie greets us as we walk into the club eyes on us.

"Hey babe." Grace hugs him and he pulls away looking at her. He smirks and whispers something in her ear to cause her to blush.

I smile at the sight of him being so happy and I leave the group looking for the drinks.

"Anna!" Jake greets me pulling me into a hug.

"Hey!" I hug him back and he keeps his arm around me.

He studies my face and smiles, "Carrington will be around soon."

"Is he here?" I ask and Troy comes up behind me.

"Anna." He hugs me from the side quick then pulls away.

"Hey Troy." I smile at him.

"You look great." He eyes me then looks around the room.

"Thank you." I laugh then pull away from both boys. "I'm going to go get a drink."

"Get me one too, surprise me." Jake hands me a $10 bill so I snatch it and walk away.

"Bitch." I hear him joke.

"Can I get two fruity drinks, but make them strong." I lean up against the bar making sure to push my cleavage out.

"Yeah." He eyes me then turns and makes two drinks.

Once he finishes he sets the glasses down. I go to hand him my card but he shakes his head.

"Are you sure." I flutter my lashes a little bit.

"You're good." He winks and I smile and walk away with my drinks.

I make it back so Jake and he smiles when he sees my drinks.

"Ooo what did you get." He says with an accent.

"Told him 2 strong fruity drinks." I smile.

"What was the change?" He asks as I hand him the $10 bill back. "You bought it for me?"

"Nope free." I wink and he laughs.

"You're not real." He shakes his head leaning against the standing table as he goes back to talking to a few of his friends.

"Hey Anna this is Robert." Tara walks with a guy following behind her.

"Hi!" I smile greeting him.

His eyebrows lift in surprise when looking at me but he drops the expression and leans against the table.

"So what do you do? Influencer?" He asks all attention on me.

"I'm a model actually." I smile.

"What are you doing here." He laughs.

"I'm friends with them." I shrug.

"Who?" He asks.

"Carrington, Jake, Johnnie, Sam, Kat, Colby, and of course Tara. Malia, and Grace." I name them off.

"Oh." He nods looking at Jake who is sensing something I'm not.

I awkwardly take a big drink out of my cup and look around the room.
