behind the scenes [completed]

Chapter 7

Please Excuse Any Mistakes

As we came to a stop near the house the party was being held at, I had second thoughts.

Most likely, I'll be that one person who sits there doing absolutely nothing.

Jerry parked the car and turned towards us smiling. Carter, who was next to me, held up his finger.

He didn't bring his camera with him but he brought his phone.

He pulled his phone out of his pocket and went to the camera app. He opened it and put the camera up so it was pointed at Carter and I.

He put on his camera smile and began, "Hello," he drawled, "Miss Lacey here is with me, going to a high school party. But, we also have Mr. Jerry and Miss Macy," he said. He pointed the camera to Jerry and Macy. Macy gave a small smile while Jerry mouthed 'hey' quickly and waved.

"Anyways, we're here and if you've never been to a high school party, well, you're missing out probably. I'm not giving out any details as of where we are or what we will do, but I'll probably get back to you with a possible hangover? I don't know. Ok, bye!" He said with a wave.

He stopped recording and stuffed his phone back in his pocket "Ok ready!" He said as he smiled like the dork he is.

Carter opened his door and went out. He closed his door after him.

We all followed his actions and met at the front of the car.
Jerry looked at us and grinned "Now let's get wasted!" He yelled as he punched the air.

I laughed while I shook my head.

We all started walking towards the house.
The street was filled with different cars. There seemed to be no more spots left.

Most neighbor's houses had their cars in their drive way and their house lights were off.

The front door of the house was about halfway open, cups and streamers littered the lawn. Some people were on the lawn with cups, most likely filled with beer or different alcohol.

The music could be heard from down the block. Different fast paced music was blaring.

I pushed the front door open. I stepped in first, the smell of alcohol and sweat filling my nose. I continued in, as did everyone else.

Looking around, I saw people dancing, kissing, and somethings I'd rather not think about.

Everyone was obviously drunk or a bit tipsy.

A guy I didn't recognize came up to us, tripping and everything, "Hey!" He drawled.

We all stared at him. He clicked his tongue and walked past us. "Well," I drawled.

Carter nodded "Ok, now let's get wasted." He said. He grabbed my hand and pulled me over to where the drinks were.

He grabbed two beer bottles and handed one to me, "No, Carter, I'm not gonna drink" I said.

His shoulders slumped, "Come on. Let loose for once. I'll be by your side as much as I can, Partner-in-Crime" he said nudging me.

I thought it over. I am high strung... You know what? F*ck it.

I grabbed the bottle from him and held it up to him. He held up his bottle like me, we clinked bottles.

And that's all I remember.

Xx

I was awoken by a sudden throbbing in my head.

F*ck it's a hangover.
