“Cameron, you’re annoying friends have arrived!” yells Andrew outside of my bedroom. I come out of my room and Jasmin runs towards me and gives me a hug.

“Don’t lie, you love it when we come over!” says Athena.

“Actually I don’t. All you guys ever do is eat all my food and make a mess.” says Andrew.  The girls roll their eyes at him.

“Are you ready for tonight?” asks Lucy.

“Yeah I’m ready to get wasted.” I say.

“Cam,” warns Andrew.

“I just want to have fun.”

“Having fun doesn’t mean you have to get shit faced. And we all know how that ends up when you get wasted. Just have fun without fucking shit up.” He says.

“Aren’t you going?” asks Lucy.

“I was but I forgot I have to take care of some things.” He says as he grabs his laptop from the kitchen counter. “And since Athena is the most responsible from the group, please don’t let her do anything stupid.” He says as he points at me. I roll my eyes.

“I promise.” Says Athena. We leave the apartment and get into Athena’s car all smiling and laughing and make our way to Louis’ place. On the way there we just talk about how everyone has been up to until Jasmin changes the subject.

“So, Cam…. Have you seen the boys’ friend that came from England?” she giggled.

“No, why?” I say.

“The guy is a babe.” gushed Lucy.

“Oh is he now?” I raise an eyebrow.

“Yeah. I think you two would be quite the match.” Said Athena.

I laughed. “You know I don’t date. I never have. When have I ever liked a boy?” I say. They stay silent. “Exactly. This is one won’t change anything.”

“But-“

I cut Athena off. “No. Stop it. I just want to have fun tonight. I don’t wanna hear it.” I snap.

We arrive to Louis’ place in a matter of minutes after I ended the conversation in the car and by the time we enter the place it’s packed with people. We are greeted by Zayn shortly and give us red cups with beer in it already. I chug mine in seconds and ask for a second cup. “I need to get loose tonight” I say to myself mentally. As time goes by I lose the girls but I don’t necessarily care since I was playing beer pong with Niall and I was ignoring. After three games of slaying Niall he quits. The next I know I realize is that I have to pee. I have drank too much and I haven’t noticed I had to go until now. I make my way through the crowd; everyone is so sweaty and gross. I finally get to the bathroom but it’s occupied. I must’ve been like at five minutes of me waiting so I bang on the door impatiently and it opens. I am taken back to see a tall, hot guy with his hair pushed back and his curls by his side and I make eye contact to the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen in my life. I snap back to reality. “Were you taking a shit or what?” I said.

“Chill out. The bathroom is all yours.” He says with a thick, English accent.

“Are you gonna move or ….?”

He smirks and moves aside and I go into the bathroom as I shut the door at his face. Shortly after using the bathroom, I check myself in the mirror. My cheeks are flush but that’s probably because the house is so damn hot with everyone in here. I pull my hair into a ponytail and leave once I finish washing my hands. I head back to where the boys and now my girls are hanging out by. There are red cups everywhere and bottles of tequila and vodka. “Please don’t drink anymore.” I hear Andrew’s voice in my head. He’s right. I’ve had enough for the night.

“Cam!” yells Zayn, snapping me out of my thoughts.

“What?” I say as I approach him. Zayn is standing to the curly guy I just had an encounter with.

“I just wanted you to your our really good friend, Harry Styles. Harry this is Cameron.”

“We’ve met.” grins Harry.

“Oh, you have?” Zayn says.

“Yeah, he was taking his sweet ass time in the bathroom.” I say as I give him a fake smile

“Wait, so this is the Cameron you were just talking about?” says Harry. I look at him to Zayn.

“Yeah. You two should talk.” Says Zayn. I give Zayn a very uninterested face expression. I don’t feel like getting to know anyone right now. “He’s met your friends and now is your turn. He’s gonna be part of our group so might as well get to know each other now.”

“Not now.” I say and leave the scene to go to the kitchen and get myself a water bottle from the fridge. Water. That’s what I need right now. Harry walks into the kitchen as I sip my water, I try not to acknowledge him but that doesn’t quite work. He’s really hot, oh my gosh.

“You sure gave quite the impression.” He says.

“Hmmm.” Is all I manage to say.

“Are you guys like that to new people you meet.” He says. I’m annoyed now.

I shrug my shoulders. “Yes. I don’t do well with first impressions.”

“Guess we have to work on that if we’re gonna try to know each other.” He smiles.

I frown. “Trust me, you don’t want to know me.” I say and leave the kitchen.
