|Love means falling and I'm afraid of heights|
Josie Easton, local highschool star football player, is your average seventeen year old teenage girl with the world on her shoulders. With senior year coming to a close and Uni quickly approaching you...
It is half past eight, Brea and I are taking our time getting ready. When we were out shopping last night I found exactly what I wanted to wear tonight. Ashton had told us that he was able to get a private section for our group that would be available at nine-thirty. I invited Kian and Justin to tag along since they are obviously really close to me. Michael told Brea that when Calum heard about the other boys coming he was not to ecstatic about my decision but tonight is my night.
Everyone said that we should rent some kind of party bus but I thought it would just be better to order an uber that way there would be no hassle.
"Ashton just said in the group chat that our car will be here at nine-twenty to pick us up along with Kian and Justin." Brea says poking her head into the bathroom as she was getting dressed.
"I really hope tonight is fun, I kind of need this." I say sighing as I finish winging out my eyeliner then moving on to mascara.
"The boys will make sure tonight is and you got me too." She states walking in and plugging in the curling iron, I decided to keep my hair straight.
"You better not bail on me and go with Michael the whole night." I say tightening my lips and stare at her through the mirror.
"Hey now... same goes for you." Brea says and I laugh because of our double standard agreement.
I finish applying my makeup before walking out into her bedroom where I have my outfit laying on the end of the bed.
I slip off my lounge shorts and random t-shirt, throwing them into my bag. I slip on the black pleated shorts that were flowy and highwaisted along with the all black cropped sweetheart top that matched.
I reach down and grab the black thigh high suede heeled boots while taking a seat on the edge of the bed so I could put them on.
I enter the bathroom once more and hand Brea the black thick choker so she could help put it on as I pull my hair to the side.
"Damn, go best friend that's my best friend." She says looking me up and down before smiling.
"You know we make a pretty bad ass team." I say looking at both of our images in the mirror, both of us working an all black outfit that fitted perfectly against our frames.
My phone buzzes letting me know that our car is waiting outside in the front for us.
"Ok the car is here." I say and Brea puts the last touches on her makeup and I quickly spray my tattoo with some antibacterial spray along with cream just to be safe. Brea covers herself in fragrance mist and I quickly ask her to do the same to me before we rush downstairs.
"Have fun and be safe girls!" I hear her mother say as we reach the door.
"Thank you Mrs. Walker, we will!" I say back as Brea yells a quick 'I love you'.
As soon as we get outside I spot the black SUV with our number on it. I open the door and I am greeted by Kian and Justin.
"Since you guys have boyfriends I'll just say you guys look really nice." Justin says scooting over so we can all fit. "Same here." Kian says and we all just laugh.
"You guys ready to fuck shit up tonight." Justin says getting pumped once the the driver starts to drive.
"You already know." I say smirking feeling the excitement rising. Any other Saturday we would be at some party doing the same thing but tonight we are all together in a club which just makes everything ten times better.
We all talk small talk during the ride to downtown where the club is located. The car pulls over along the sidewalk letting us get out and the older man informs us that our ride has already been payed for. I thank the driver as I step out and huddle around the others searching the crowded line for the boys.
Just as we are about to join the line Ashton's figure sticks out the main entrance.
"Josie! Brea! This way." He shouts and says something to the two men stationed at the front door letting the people standing inside the velvet ropes in.
"Thank you so much Ashton I can't express how thankful I am right now. I'll write you a check after tonight." I say as we all follow through the main entrance into the direction I assume is where our section is. Music is radiating off the walls adding to the temperature rising as we get closer.
"Don't worry about it, Calum got it all covered." He says looking back at me smiling cheek to cheek.
I smile at the thought of Calum doing this for me but feel guilty and dependent. A feeling that I am not too fond of.
"Damn am I lucky or am I lucky?" I hear Calum say as his eyes meet with mine, I walk closer to him entering the rather large area in a corner. I wrap my arms around his neck pulling him closer to kiss him. Our lips connecting perfectly as we take in this moment.
"You didn't have to pay for all this." I whisper after we pull away.
"I did, I feel terrible for missing your birthday. This is not even the half of what I have planned, you're not going home tonight." He says smirking then moving in to kiss my cheek.
Our moment is interrupted by people crowding around the small area with all my friends in the front.
"Happy birthday to you..." The all start singing as one of the staff workers brings out a platter full of cupcakes sitting them in front of me. I feel the heat come to the surface of my cheeks, Calum rests his hand on the small of my back joining the others in singing.
I smile as the song comes to an end making it close to the time for me to blow out the candles and make a wish.

I pucker my lips and lean forward to blow out the candles causing everyone to do a quick cheer as the small flames are blown away.
Everyone takes a cupcake and the crowd disappears from our section leaving just our group like it was before.
"Time for the first round of shots!" Brea exclaims as someone brings out the first rack of drinks.
I grab one waiting until we all do cheers, I shoot down the liquid like it is nothing.
Brea takes me by the hand with Michael close behind her so I grab a hold of Calum making him follow along with us to the dance floor.
We get to the middle of the raving bodies and begin to dance with each other. Brea and I mostly as the boys just wait for their moment.
The beat of my favorite song by Tyga comes on blaring through speakers making me turn to look at Calum before turning back around and placing my bum on his front. His hands find their way immediately to my hips, gripping firmly as I bounce seeing Brea is doing the exact same thing. We make eye contact and send a wink to one another.
