[RILEY]

The music within the house roaring. I can feel the music in my chest. Clouds of marijuana fill the room. The dark red lights coming from the living room shine down on everyone. It's fairly dark everywhere else. I can barely see a thing in these crowed rooms.

I feel around my surroundings and struggle to find the person I'm looking for until someone grabs a hold of my waist and pulls me to him. I look up and to see Harry clung onto me. I let out a sigh of relief when I realise it's him.

His big arms are gripped tightly around my waist as he holds me from behind and we squeeze our way onto the dance floor. Once we reach it, he lets go of me but grabs a hold of my hand and spins me around to the music with a drink in his hand.

I feel everything around me. The warmth of people's bodies, the music, everything. Harry pulls me close to him and says something in my ear.

"You having fun yet?" He asks.

"Yeah, but my feet are killing me can we sit down somewhere?" I shout to him over the music.

He nods at me and grabs a hold of my hand and pulls me through the crowed into the kitchen. Harry pours a couple shots and hands one to me.

"To us!" He shouts with his slow and sluggish voice. I raise up the glass in return and chug down the drink quickly. The tanginess goes down my throat into my stomach. I've never drank so much alcohol before. But it feels good. 

I hop up onto the counter to sit.

Harry taps my shoulder and I look up at him.

"I'll be right back, I have to go take a wee. Don't go anywhere." He says slowly. I nod my head and watch as he walks away slowly.

I sit alone in the crowed kitchen. I watch as people around me chug down on alcohol. Others say hi to me as they walk by. I greet them only with a smile.

As I sit and wait for Harry to return, I see Kurt and Blaine laughing at some pointless joke on the other side of the kitchen. I walk over to them and see if they will notice my presence. Which they do, of course.

"Hey it's my favourite bitch Riley!" Kurt shouts.

"Hey Kurt. Hey Blaine." I say to the both of them.

"Hey Riley. Where's Harry?" Blaine asks.

"He went to go take a wee, I'm just waiting for him to come back."

"Oh. Cool." Blaine says. I look around the room to see if I recognize anymore familiar faces. I see some people I know, but I don't talk to them.

I pear my eyes around the room one last time but I stop when I notice a tall buff guy staring me down. It's too dark to see his face but when he walks out of the darkness and into the light towards me, I immediately know who it is.

"Oh no." I whisper to Kurt and Blaine.

"What?" They ask.

"I've gotta go." I say as I try to move through the crowd of people.

"Wait where are you going?" Kurt yells to me.

I don't respond. I try to get out of the room as quickly as possible.

"Riley wait!" The guy calls to me.

"Jase leave me alone!" I shout back at him.

"Can you just wait for a moment!" Jase shouts, his voice is getting closer.

"No! I told you to leave me alone Jase." I say as I move through the crowd.

Jase grabs a hold of my hand, "Riley stop walking-" he stops mid sentence when a girl calls his name.

"Jase! There you are! I want to speak with you." The girl says. The voice sounds familiar so I turn around to see who it is.

"Uhh why?" Jase asks the girl. I get a more clear view of the girl. It's Jessica. Why would Jessica want to speak with Jase?

"It's urgent. Oh and hi Riley!" She says as she separates Jase's hand from mine. Thank god.

"Uh, hi Jess."

"You don't mind if I just steal him for a quick sec right?" She says with a perky tone.

"No, I was actually hoping someone would do that." I say back to her.

"Okay great! Jase, follow me." She says as she drags him through the crowd.

I rush out of the hallway and go back into the kitchen where I see clueless Harry looking around for me.

When he spots me his facial expression lightens.

"Oh thank god, I was starting to think something happened to you." Harry says with his hand on his heart.

"Nope, I'm fine," I begin, "Just fine."

Prepare for some excitement ahead.
