I don't know but I think I may be
Fallin' for you dropping so quickly
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Wait until I know you better

"GENEVIEVE JACKSON WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GET THIS!?" Someone jumped on my bed and began slapping me with a pillow. I groaned.

"Jesus, Stacey, it's the middle of the night." I rolled over and tried to continue sleeping.

"Gene, it's 9 in the morning, now get your fat ass up."

I glared at her as she whipped the covers off the bed and the cold air hit my half naked body. 

"What do you want?" I demanded, extremely grumpy. Stacey waved a blue gum wrapper in my face.

"Umm, this? Where the fuck did you get it!?" 

I squinted at it, trying to remember where it had come from. It did look vaguely familiar.

"Ugh, I don't know. It's too early for that."

Stacey stood up on my bed and began jumping up and down and screaming. 

"Okay, okay! Niall gave it to me last night! Jesus, the trash can is right there. Why don't you just throw it out yourself!?" I hissed, pulling the covers back over my body. 

"Throw it out!?" She repeated. "Are you crazy? Are you absolutely out of your mind? This here, is your ticket to the campus' craziest party."

"Either make some sense or go away." I said.

"The Phi Kappa Psi fraternity throws a huge, wild party the weekend before classes start, but it's invitation only. These gum wrappers are the invitation, you have to bring it to the door."

"And I care........why?" I asked, still angry that I was woken up so early.

"Because each member in Phi Kappa Psi can only hand out one invitation, but it has to be to a girl and obviously Niall gave you his." 

"What!?" I exclaimed, suddenly wide awake. "Why would he ever do that? I just met him!" 

"Don't ask me, but I so told you he had his eye on you. Plus, you're a fucking freshman! Damn, you're probably going to be the youngest there." She smirked.

"Whatever, you can have it." I rubbed sleep out of my eyes and yawned.

"First of all, this is kind of a big deal, seeing as Niall has never handed out his wrapper before and literally every girl wants one, and secondly I already have one." Stacey climbed off my bed, and reached into her purse, pulling out yet another blue gum wrapper. 

"Congratulations?"

"Thanks!" She beamed. "Zayn gave it to me last night." 

"Whatever, I'm eating breakfast now." 

"No you're not, we're going dress shopping! How are you not freaking out? Only about 100 people are going to be there! Damn, some girls would kill for an invitation." Stacey grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the kitchen. I guess I really did need to buy some more bras and underwear.

"What? I can't even get dressed?" 

"Fine. 1 minute." Stacey crossed her arms as I rushed into my room and grabbed a pair of jeans.

"Here, keep this close to you." Stacey handed me my wrapper and I tucked it into my pocket as we walked out the door.
