The 7 things I hate about you........

How did we......(Part 5)

Hayyyyyyyyyyyyyy it's Ari&Adara

(Back at the party)

Henry POV:   

Majority of the people here were either drunk or dancing, and at the moment I wasn't really feeling it so I was just lounging around on a couch checking my phone from time to time.

And with all the people crowded in this one room its starts getting really sweaty and humid "Why is it so hot in here?!" I wipe a trail of sweat off my forehead. I get up slowly squeezing through the crowds of people to get outside.

I pull open the screen door leading to the backyard. Once stepping outside I immediately cool down.

"Ahh, fresh air." 

I plop down on a really comfortable looking hammock and swing slowly. I stare up at the sky "I wonder if....." I trail off and my mind starts to wander "Why did I start that stupid bet anyway?" I search the deep corners of my mind but I can't trace back to one solid reason why.

"I mean, it does bring me joy to make her angry." I chuckle softly at the thought of her being mad (And I will admit her sassiness is admirable) I hear footsteps coming towards me and I look down "Hey hen, what are you doing?" Bianca asks laying down next to me.

 "Just chilling."

"Cool, do you like the party?" she asks "Yea." I look up at the sky "Well, I'm glad." An uncomfortable silence surrounds us, and she clears her throat "Um......I'm gonna get back to the party." she gets up quickly leaving me to my own thoughts.

I prop my head up with my hands. For a split second this weird feeling erupts in my chest, then it fades away quickly (this feels so familiar) I ponder it for a moment "Like someone's in danger." I dismiss the idea quickly "Nah." I start getting bored after a while "I never thought I'd say this, but I'm gonna leave the party early." I get up slowly and stretch out my limbs. 

When I get the house it felt like someone one turned the thermostat up to 200° "I need to get out of here." I mutter to myself (usually I'm totally for this party scene but today not so much)  I weave through people bumping into someone in the process

"Watch where you're going!" I glare at the person bumped into me  

I keep on my way but I'm stopped by a hand on my shoulder. I turn around "What?" I say slightly agitated "Have you seen charlotte anywhere?" Jake asks "No, I'm not her bodyguard." I say "Maybe Levi knows where she is." I hear Jake mutter under his breath (Levi?) 

"Who's Levi?" I ask a bit curious "He's the new kid." Jake says quickly (Oh yea, I did here some girls gossiping about him today at school)  "Well how does he know charlotte then?" I press more.

"They've know each other since like 6th grade, but he was sent to boarding school in like 8th grade." Jake says (the same time I came to swellview)  "Thanks for telling me Jake." I say quickly "But my name's Jasp---" he starts to say but I cut him off "Yea cool." I move away from him quickly and finally get outside

I slip into my car and sit there for a moment "How many guy friends  does she have?!" I say to myself while starting the car

"Some music would be good." 

I click to a random station and turn up the sound "What makes you beautiful By: One Direction!" The radio announcer declares excitedly, and I immediately shut the radio off "Definitely not ." I gag a little bit in my mouth, then concentrate on the road.

(At home)  

I unlock the door slowly, then peek my head inside "Coast is clear." I sigh in relief and go inside. I see a sticky note on the coffee table so I pick it up.
