"Alex, right?"

I looked up to see those beautiful green eyes I was met with last night. Well, technically early this morning.

"Uh-yeah," I said, as he reaches down to give me a hug, since I was much shorter than he was. "Harry, right?"

"Yeah, long time no see," He says, pulling me into an embrace. After a moment of awkward silence he speaks up again. "Well, it was nice seeing you again."

After he left, I sat back down and held my forehead in the palm of my one hand. I looked up to find Arielle giving me the look. "What now?" I ask, laughing as I say it.

"Long time no see, huh?" She asks, smirking. "And that hug! Did you meet him last night during your walk?"

"Maybe I did, and maybe I didn't, and thats my business!" I said, laughing.

We received our food shortly after our laughing fit, and we ate like animals.

"Nicole! I'm not going to wear a skimpy dress to a party full of strangers!" I said, giggling as I ran through my closet while on the phone with Nicole.

"Then what will you wear? Jeans and a shirt from your old volleyball team?" She says.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed a pair of black jeans and slid them on. "Funny. I have some black jeans and a white, cropped, tank top. Good enough?" I said, looking at myself in the mirror.

"Perfect! What shoes were you going to wear?"

"I don't know, probably Nikes?" I asked, confused because shoes hadn't come to mind.

"My god no! Wear something cute! Maybe," She paused, thinking of something. "When I come pick you up, I'll bring about three pairs of shoes you can try on!"

I laughed, and walked over to my bed. "Am I going to walk out of the building with socks on?"

"Yes, it's a better look than Nike tennis shoes!" She yells on the phone.

"See you soon, Nicole!" I said sarcastically happy, and then hung up.

Nicole said she was picking me up at 6:30, and it was currently 6:07, so I sat and watched television.

"Nicole Anne Richards, if you don't slow this car down, I swear to god!"

"Alex, relax! I'm not even going over the speed limit," She says, laughing her ass off. "Oh, reach into the backseat, there should be three pairs of shoes."

I reach into the back, grabbing shoes that seemed difficult to walk in, since I felt the heel on the backs of the shoes. The first pair were all black and had a chunky heel. They went with my outfit so I decided to wear them. Also because I didn't feel like trying the others on.

"Here we are," Nicole says, pulling in front of the house. I could hear the bass of the music pumping throughout the house. People running through the yards, some clothed and some not, people crashed on couches on the lawn, and tens of thousands of red Solo cups thrown everywhere. "Lets go!" She says, grabbing my wrist, making me off balance.

Upon entering the house, we're met with couples smashing their faces together on the stairs, shots in one room, a makeshift dance floor in the living room, and a kitchen full of booze. "Alex, let's go do shots!"

I really didn't have a choice, because I know if I was left alone I would be given a drink either way. Pushing through people, and almost falling a few times, we both received small shot glasses full of murky, yellow liquid. "3, 2, 1!" I heard a voice shout, and everyone tilts their head back and swallows the liquid, including me. A slight burning sensation going down my throat, but it wasn't bad. I could definitely tolerate alcohol. Better than Nicole.

"Who wants another?" Hands go up and everyone yells. Another round went around, and of course I grabbed another, and so did Nicole.

"What is this?" I asked the boy standing next to me, who was quite cute. He had shaggy brunette hair, and crystal blue eyes.

"Lemon Drop, I think," He said putting the glass on a table. "It's vodka, lemon juice, and sugar."

I nodded, and handed my glass to someone collecting them. "Thanks, I'm Alex."

"Derek," He said, shaking my hand.

I wanted to go find Nicole so I left and went to the backyard, with no luck. Checked the kitchen, also no luck. I assumed she'd be there because there were tons of snacks. I grabbed another drink, this time it was just plain beer. I figured she was probably dancing or just in the bathroom, so I headed for the dance floor.

Soon enough, I met a girl named Ellie, who was actually really nice. I met her on my way to the dance floor. We stood beside each other, swaying our hips to the beat of the music. Drink after drink, I felt more and more loose and tipsy. After getting more into the music, I felt a pair of hands grasp my hips. I had no idea who was behind me, so I decided to have fun wth it. I swayed back and forth, reaching my hands back to feel up the person behind me, even grabbing their neck.

After their lips connected to the skin on my neck, I turned around to meet them with my lips. Electricity flowing from one body to another and back. Their lips travelled from my lips to my jaw, they whispered something into my ear.

"Long time no see."
