  "HOW MANY DRINKS DO YOU THINK IT TAKES TO GET A BIRD DRUNK?" Bailey shouts over the loud music and I roll my eyes.


  "Probably way less than you've had." I say at a normal volume.


  "WHAT? YOU WANT TEQUILA? BE RIGHT BACK!" She slurs back to me and I walk upstairs to the bathroom to find some quiet. I've been here for 30 minutes and watched Bailey chug more alcohol than probably safe. I figured if I left her, she wasn't my responsibility and her and Cal (cue the shuddering) could have some time to (drunkenly) talk. I sigh as I sit on the cold floor and text Luke.


  Me: where the hell are you?? I've been here 30 mins and it's hell


  Luke: idk if I can make it tonight but the guys are still totally cool with you tagging along. trying to be a good boyfriend like someone told me to be ;) cal won't be there just hang with ashton and michael they're cool


  Trying to suppress my anger towards Luke for bailing last minute, I text him back.


  Me: they'll just treat me like cal's sister


  Luke: 'cause you are?


  Me: stfu you know what I meant. 


  Luke: are you mad or something?


  YEA! YEA I'M FUCKING MAD!


  Me: no this party just fucking sucks and I can't believe the highlight of my night was supposed to be grocery shopping


  That's it Tori! Don't ever express what you actually feel!


  Luke: you can still go!


  Me: it won't be any fun


  Luke: ash and michael are right outside of the house. they're only gonna wait 5 more minutes for you. you'll have fun, trust me.


  I ignore his last text and let out a frustrated groan. If I don't go then I'm stuck here. Need I say more? I think you should understand how much this party fucking blows being that it was held in honor of a dead cat. And being here sober? Total fucking nightmare. But if I leave then I'm stuck with Ashton and Michael who I'm pretty sure hate me and all of my jokes. 


  Shit. Both options sound so great! How will I choose?!


  After a few moments of sitting there wondering why I even came here to, need I say it again, A FUCKING PARTY HELD FOR A DEAD CAT, when I could be sitting at home, I get up from the floor of the bathroom and drag my feet outside to find Michael and Ashton in an old beat up jeep.


  "Hey guys." I say with more bitterness than I intended.
