Chapter Five
I checked myself again in the mirror. The mascara and the eyeliner hid my puffy red eyes well.
I didn't even want to go. I'd rather sleep, even though I couldn't. Why did I have to go?
I walked out of the washroom wearing a dark blue dress, the dress ended a little above the knee. With that I wore black stilettos. My hair was in waves.
Ariana was sitting on my bed and when she looked at me she seemed surprised.
"Wow you look...different." she said.
I smiled at her and together we snuck out of the house. It was almost midnight now.
When we reached the place of the party, I could hear the loud music and the lights coming from the house.
The party looked wild and I regreted coming here. I sighed. There was no backing away now. I walked up to the front door.
As I entered with Ariana on my side, I saw Percy coming towards her. He said something to me but I couldn't hear it, but I nodded nevertheless. He put an arm around her waist and they both went away.
A guy about my age came up to me and said something.
"I can't hear you!" I shouted.
"You want to have a drink?" he asked louder and closer now.
Drink? I had never had a drink in my life. Except the times I had had wine. I guess I needed some alcohol in my system, to drive away the thoughts of my past which were quite a part of my present. I nodded to him.
He took me by my waist and took me to the place which had all the bottles. Even without him saying anything I went ahead and picked up one bottle. I took a shot directly from it taking almost quarter of the bottle in one gulp.
"Woah calm down girl." the guy who had bought me here said.
I smiled at him sadly, nodded and took another gulp.
"Do you want to get drunk?" he asked me smiling seductively and taking a sip from his own glass.
I didn't say anything and took another gulp. I looked at the guy and he was still looking at me in a shocked expression.
"Don't take so much at once. You will not be able to digest it..." he gasped as I took another gulp.
I left the empty bottle on the counter and stumbled out of the place. I looked around...hmmm....then I saw Chris with Summer. I snorted in distaste.
"Listen girl, wait up!" I heard the guy scream.
"I have a name okay?" I said turning around and crossing my arms over my chest, "its Lily by the way!"
I turned back around and started walking towards the indoor pool. There were a lot of people there, but I needed to find Chris. The guy was still following me, but I ignored him.
Suddenly someone bumped into me spilling there drink on my new dress.
"Hey watch it!" I shouted at her.
"Oh my god! I totally didn't see you!" Summer's high pitched voice said. "Oh and where did you get that dress from? Walmart?"
"There is a store named Calvin Klein, if you haven't heard of it." I replied looking down at my now spoilt dress.
"I'm sorry but you wear it like a garbage bag!" Summer said.
"At least I'm not fake like you! Barbie would be jealous of you!" I said.
"Remember when I asked for your opinion? Me neither." Summer said. "And I'm pretty sure you were a mistake, your parents biggest mistake." she continued gripping my arm, and digging her perfectly manicured nails into them.
Her words hurt, more than my now bleeding arm. Was I a mistake?
"You didn't deserve to be born, I'm pretty sure you caused a lot of sadness in your family." Summer shouted.
She was right. I did was the cause my family was sad. I looked around, everybody was now looking at us. I looked at Chris, he didn't seem affected by what was going on. Tears blurred my vision but I furiously blinked them back.
"You being born spoilt all of our lives." she shouted shoving me back.
Her words stung like bees. I stumbled back, and before I could realize it I fell into the pool. The water hit my back like bricks. I tried to swim out but I was in a dress and the pool was very deep.
I'm pretty sure you caused a lot of sadness in your family... She was right. It would be better if I had not been born. It would be better if I died. With that thought I stopped struggling. I sank down, my vision once again was blurred and my eyelids started closing.
Suddenly, someone's hand wrapped around my waist and pulled me out of the pool. I gasped for air and looked up. It was the guy who offered me to drink, was sitting beside me drenched.
"Why did you..." I coughed.
"Are you fine?" he asked, worry written in his expression.
Did he have to save me? Couldn't I just die in peace?
I nodded and got up, I was furious.
"Oh look, miss i-cant-swim got herself a saver!" Summer exclaimed coming in front of me, clearly enjoying the scene.
Ignoring her I stormed out of the house. Bumping into people who were laughing at me, and tripping on glasses. I took another bottle of i-dont-know-what and continued my way out.
Ariana and Connor tried to hold me back, but I walked past them.
I walked out of the door, the cold air didn't bother me beacause of the alcohol in my system. I took a gulp from the bottle I had, the thoughts running in my head were depressing.
I started to cross the street. Ariana's voice called me. I looked back at her, she was coming towards me, but I walked on.
I saw to headlights coming towards me. This is my chance I thought, and I stood waiting for it to come towards me.
"Lily move away!" I heard Ariana shout.
I don't move, the car was close. Any moment now I thought. I closed my eyes, tears immediately escaping my eyes and rolling down my already wet cheeks. The car was really close now...
****
And she died, the end.
Please don't kill me, I know I left this as a cliffhanger and that the chapter is really short. I don't care! Wait for my next update to know if she died or not! And special thanks to @jumping-higher and @neptune925 .- Kritika
