Tragedy

They arrived at the party ten minutes later. Sasha lived closer to Jessica than Avion. They stepped out of the car and walked up to the house. You could hear cheers and loud music playing from the inside.

-Sasha: Oooh we're here.

Sasha squeezed Avi's arm and they both smiled at each other. They rang the doorbell and someone opened the door. Jessica face lit up as she saw the two girls.

-Jessica: Welcome! (With an English accent)

Her long blond hair bounced as she carefully ran towards them and hugged them. She wore a black short dress with a black pair of high booties and looped earrings.

-Jessica: Please come on in and enjoy yourself.
-Avi: Thank you Jesse.

They went inside and their hearts were lifted. They smiled and looked around as they saw how everyone was enjoying themselves. The DJ switched the track and a loud EDM song started to play. Everyone was raving, and Sasha moved her body to the beat.

-Sasha: This is my jam girl!
-Avi: Every song is your jam.

Sasha laughed as she pulled Avi towards the crowd. Sasha lifted her hands and she danced to the beat. Avi looked at her and laughed. The smell of alcohol surrounded her nose.

-Sasha: C'mon Avi. Dance with me. Shake what 'yo momma' gave you.
-Avi: I have to look for Andy.

The music got louder as the DJ turned up the volume when the song switched, but Sasha heard her before it changed. She fanned her away and continued dancing. The house was huge, so it was going to be difficult finding Andy. She tried calling him but the phone went to voicemail. She made her way into the kitchen we're she ran into Tony and some of his friends. He was dressed in a grey long-sleeved shirt and a grey skinny pants and red shoes. Their eyes made one and he smiled at her. She slowly lifted a smile on her face before he walked over to her. She got nervous as he came closer and closer to her.

-Tony: Hey, you made it.
-Avi: Ah, yeah, I just got here.
-Tony: Cool. Can I get you something to drink?
-Avi: No thanks. I'm actually looking for my brother.
-Tony: Andy?

She nodded her head.

-Tony: Ok. Lemme help you.
-Avi: No, it's OK.
-Tony: Oh c'mon. There's a lot of people here. It's gonna be difficult finding him without a little bit of help.

He gave her a little nudge on the arm. She looked down on the ground and smiled.

-Avi: OK. Thank you very much.
-Tony: You're welcome. Shall we?

He guided his hand out so that she could walk in front of him. They came out of the kitchen and into the living room. Avi looked over at the spot where she left Sasha and she saw hee dancing with some random guy. She giggled and Sasha looked over at her. She gave her a wave and a wink and Avi smiled and fanned her away.

-Tony: Your friend seems to be having a good time.
-Avi: Yeah, she's more of the party animal.

Tony let out a laugh.

-Tony: And you are?
-Avi: I'm the quiet one.
-Tony: I see. The quiet ones are the most dangerous.
-Avi: Dangerous?

Avi turned so that she was facing him. She smirked at him and he smiled. He drew his fingers through his long curly hair.

-Tony: Yeah, dangerous. Like a vixen. I'm sure you have a lil bit of spark in you.
-Avi: I doubt that.

She managed to let out a laugh. Tony took her hand and she instantly got goose bumps.

-Tony: Let's check upstairs.

She took a good two seconds before nodding her head. He smiled and guided her upstairs. On their way upstairs, they saw one of Andy's friend, Jake, coming down. He had a red cup in his hand. He was looking back and he collided with Tony. He quickly turned around and the cup fell out of his hand. It was a good thing that the cup was empty.
