You swiftly turned her over and watched as tears cascaded down her delicate cheeks and tangled in her hair. “Sophie?” You muttered. Slumping down on the floor next to her you did the only thing you could think of: hugged her. You pulled her close and muttered soothing words until she eventually calmed her hysterical crying. Slowly you eased her off you and walked into her en-suite, ignoring the mess, and grabbed the tissue box. You waited patiently for about half an hour as her blood red eyes died down to just slightly puffy.

“He… He” she began stammering, then took a calming breath and started again. “He has been seeing another girl… Kevin… for 3 weeks now” His name was Kevin, you thought to yourself before mentally slapping yourself. You saw tears brimming in her eyes again. “What did you do?” you asked. “What do you think I did? I dumped his sorry ass of course. I saw her underwear in his room. Bastard” She muttered. After a few moments you said “Any guy would be lucky to go out with you Soph, your pretty, clever and funny. I have watched countless eyes follow you around Uni. So this guy was an idiot and obviously didn’t appreciate you. You deserve so much better Soph. I know what we are going to do.” Sophie looked up at you a slight smile on her face. “What?” she asked. “Going to get his sorry arse back”

“You sure he won’t be here?” You asked for the countless time.  “Yes. He has rugby training every Wednesday night and usually goes to the bar afterwards. He won’t be home for hours” You nodded in reply and opened the door with Sophie’s key. After giving his flat a quick over view you turned to Sophie and said “Send the text” She smiled mischievously as she hit the button on her phone. Within seconds you felt you phone vibrate in your pocket and read the message “Party at Kevin’s place, invite whoever you want, going to be the best party of the year!” You just wait Kevin.

The music pulsed through the flat causing the walls to quake and your ears ring. You stepped over discarded bottles and rubbish on the floor as you headed to the bathroom. Upon opening the door you saw two couples, one couple in the bath tub, the other sitting on the sink, making out furiously. Their heads turned at the sudden light cast in the room. “Oopsie” you chortled as you shut the door once again. Where was Sophie? You hadn’t seen her since about 2 hours ago when the party hit off. The rooms where al crammed full of people all jumping around to the music. Catching sight of a little blonde head bobbing around in the corner you pushed your way towards her. Only to begin retreating again when you saw that her legs were wrapped around a boy’s waist you’d never seen before. Girl moves on fast. Laughing you turned and headed towards the garden.

 More people were out here, smoking or just escaping the crazy happenings of the party inside. A few people thanked me for organising the party I smiled in return walking towards the edge of the party. Perfect timing. A small black KA car pulled into the parking space in front of the house. You watched in amusement as Kevin got out of the car, blinked a few times and came careering towards the ground floor flat, his face already a deep red with anger. He climbed over the fence and charged straight at you. You wiggled your fingers at him. “Great party Kevin thanks SO much” you said your voice thick in malice. You followed him into his house and watched as his eyes widened at the absolutely trashed apartment. “Have fun clearing this up” You said as you went back into the centre of the room to join in with the dancing.
