Photograph (Lauren/You)

Chapter 54

You ripped the flier off of your locker, then reading it. Your eyebrows furrowed, seeing the familiar address. Apparently, Brad is holding a party at his - now also your house tonight. Earlier today, William said he was going on a business trip, and bringing Gloria with him.

William didn't say anything about not having friends or having a party. But still, a party on a Wednesday night? That doesn't add up. You sighed, opening your locker and stuffing the flier in there.

"Hey," Lauren arrived at your locker, her flier in hand, "Did you know about this?" she held it up.

"No," you shook your head, "I didn't. Will and Gloria are on a business trip, so." you shrugged, shutting your locker, "Nothing I can do about it."

At lunch, Normani didn't even bother looking at Ally. She didn't say hi or anything, she just sat down next to Hailee, who smiled at her. Normani and Hailee have been hanging out more and more, and both of them haven't thought about having sex again. It's not awkward like it would be with other people.

"Who's going to Brad's party tonight?" Dinah asked, sitting next to Zendaya, holding her hand.

"I am," Hailee answered first, "And so is Normani, right?" Normani nodded.

"I have to go," you muttered, "I live there. And I didn't even know about the party."

"I might," Ally shrugged, along with Cara and Kendall, "Don't know yet," Ally looked at Normani. Normani could feel Ally's eyes on her, but she didn't look at her, she just ignored it.

"I am," Shawn said, "I mean, I live right across from him. And Camila is my date." Camila smiled, looking at Shawn.

"So everyone's going?" Dinah inquired, and most of the group nodded.

---

You and Lauren walked inside the house, where Brad and some of his friends are help setting up. You looked on the table and saw beer. You sighed, shaking your head as you held Lauren's hand.

"Brad," you said, walking up to him, "Does William know about this party?"

"Yeah," he grinned, "He said yes and gave me permission. Plus, Natalie isn't going to be here tonight. He just said no drinking and all."

"Then why is there alcohol on the table?"

"It's not a party without booze," Brad stated, walking away from you guys. You turned around and faced Lauren, who was frowning.

"Are you going to do something about this?" she asked.

"There's nothing I can do."

---

The party was in full blast, and you and Lauren were in your room. You could hear the music from downstairs, it vibrating off of the wall. There were dozen's of cars up and down the street. Teenagers were everywhere - except in your room and William's room.

The door to your room opened, and you looked up, seeing Camila, Hailee, and Shawn shutting the door.

"So many people," Shawn mumbled, "I think someone tried to twerk on me while I was trying to go upstairs."

"You know there's like, a lot of alcohol down there?" Camila questioned, sitting down in a chair, as did Shawn and Hailee.

"I know," you said, "It's a mess." The door opened again, and in came Dinah and Zendaya.

"Holy fuck," Dinah cursed. "It's like a tsunami down there!"

Lauren was looking through Instagram, seeing people post pictures of the party that's now going on. People were grinding and twerking, and some even posting pictures of weed. Lauren shook her head, but slightly grinned.

---

Ally walked through the door, entering your house. You could barely see Ally, since everyone is taller than her. Ally got pushed around, some people elbowing her. She groaned when she got elbowed in the boob, almost falling to the ground. But, before she could fall, someone caught her by the elbows.

Ally looked up to see Normani, holding her steady.

"Oh, uh, thanks," Ally mumbled, scratching the back of her neck.

"Yeah," Normani nodded, "Follow me, Dinah texted me that everyone that's coming is in Y/N's room."
