Let Me Be the One to Save You

Chapter 14 - Party, swimming and forgiving

I wasn't sure when this amount of people got here. I also didn't know how alcohol and pot made it's way into Stella's house. Who would have thought that I would have such a rebellious party? Definitely not me. I was trying not to worry about the fact that if the police came, not only would I be introuble by Jason and Stella, I'd be in trouble for underage drinking. 

It wasn't all my fault. I mean, how can you resist having a few drinks after watching so many people have fun, while being off their faces? You couldn't. I was drinking, but I hated the fact that someone was doing drugs in my sight. The only problem with that though, was nearly every single person had a joint between their fingers, and I couldn't do anything about it. 

This was technically Lola's party. They're all her friends...Well, some of them. The others kind of just invited themselves. 

I hadn't seen her all night. Infact, I haven't seen any of the boys in over an hour. The last I saw of Calum was when he was dragging a girl upstairs. I really didn't want to know what was going on in one of the bedrooms up there. I just hope my bedroom was unoccupied at the moment. 

Ashton didn't end up showing up. Well, not that I know of. He's probably here having a good time himself, I just haven't seen him. I couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy as I thought of all the girls that were probably grinding up against him righ-

"Grace!" Someone called. I turned on the spot and spotted the same boy I was just thinking of, pushing past the swarming bodies. I decided to meet him halfway, and pushed through the crowd myself. "What's going on?" Ashton asked me eventually

"What do you mean?" I yelled. Remind me to never put Lola in charge of the music, ever again. All Time Low's Damned if I do ya, damned if i don't was playing nevery loudly around my house. The neighbours were probably going crazy right now. "It's a party, what does it look like?" I asked him

Ashton didn't reply, instead he grabbed my wrist and pulled me through the crowded lounge room and out the back door. There were a few people making out in different areas of the yard, but it was much quieter out here. "What are you doing?" He asked me. He sounded serious, but not angry. I thought I could hear a little bit of amusement in his voice, but didn't put any thought into t. 

"I'm enjoying myself" I said, taking a gulp of the horrid liquid in the plastic cup that was sitting between my fingers "Maybe you should too" I shrugged. I could feel the alcohol taking over my body, but I wouldn't say I was off my face. 

Yet.

"The neighbours are going to have your head later" He told me, smirking at my drunken state. It was only around 10pm at the moment, but I couldn't see the party ending any time soon. I knew he was right, but i wasn't myself at this point. 

~Play the song (radioactive) on the side right now, trust me you'll thank me later~

"Come on" I dragged out, pulling on his wrist, towards the back door again. I wanted to dance. He chuckled and followed me inside. Imagine dragons radioactive was blaring loudly and I couldn't help but grin at Ashton. This was my favourite song. "Dance with me!" I yelled, tugging on his long sleeves. 

"You're crazy!" He laughed, as I started swaying our bodies to the song. Most people were on the dance floor now, swaying and dancing to the amazing music. I felt lost. I haven't felt this good in a while. I started dancing with everyone in the room as the words started. Flashing lights started shining bright, and I couldn't help but feel ontop of the world. 

"IM WAKING UP! I FEEL IT IN MY BONES!" I sang, jumping up and down. Ashton followed and started singing with me. The base sounded incredible through the sleakers, and you could literally feel the floor moving.
