I should be enjoying this.
I should be enjoying the drink in my hand and the pounding music and the girl beside me.
But I can't.
Because the drink is actually water and the music is crappy and gives me a headache and the girl is going out with my cousin.
So I move away, because I don't want to be the reason a couple breaks up. Ha. If only the guy Debby slept with wasn't a prick and thought of that too. Jesus. I was dragged to this party to "help me get over her" and here I am stuck as being The Sober Friend.
I make my way upstairs, hoping the bathrooms free so I can lock myself in and stay there until the party's over. I reach the door and push the handle, and to my surprise it's not locked. But there's someone else here.
It was the guy from lunch duty the other day, Brendon's friend. He's sat with his back against the bathtub, book in hand and earphones in. How he can hear his own music over the sound of the shit downstairs, I don't know.
He looks up, and blinks at me, shocked. His cheeks flush red and he snaps his book shut, taking one earphone out and begins to stand up. "Uh, sorry." He mumbles, making his way towards the door. "What are you listening to?" I say, it coming out harsher than I mean to. His cheeks go darker. "Uhh...Green Day?"
I smile slightly. "I love them!" He looks up, pleased. I see his face clearly for the first time and my smile grows wider. Sure, he's not anything special. I don't like boys that way, so I wouldn't say he's attractive. But y'know, I've met uglier.
"I'm Josh. Dun." I say, holding out his hand. "Joseph. Tyler, Joseph. More commonly known as 007." The boy says. It's silent after that and I slowly raise an eyebrow. Tyler flushes even darker and I let out a laugh. "Sorry, I don't quite know what that was..." Tyler mumbles, looking down.
"My phone number ends in 007." I blurt out randomly. Tyler looks at me, confused. "Uh...cool..." He says, cocking his head to one side. "I mean, if you want it." The words stumble out my mouth before I can stop them. Tyler grins at me and holds out his hand, taking the pen from out his pocket. I take the pen and scrible down the didgets, and Tyler nods. "Okay, cool. Uhm-"
"Tyguy! You gotta take me home man. Im going to be sick!" Brendon staggers over to Tyler, grinning. Tyler rolls his eyes and nods. "Okay. Uh, bye Josh."
"Bye Tyguy."
He glares at me sightly before breaking into a giggle before walking off with Brendon.
I look at where he was just standing. What just happened?
