A Little Bit Of Everything (EARLIER CALLED YOUNG, WILD AND FREE)

6. //The party - it all started. //

From "The Starling" by Amy Lowell:

"I weary for desires never guessed,
For alien passions, strange imaginings,
To be some other person for a day."

-------------------------------------------------------------'Babe, there's a party at Aaron's place tonight . Wanna go? ' Alex asked me.
'Sure', I said.
And that, my friends, turned my world completely upside down.
-------------------------------------------------------------
*PRESENT DAY*
That memory has buried a hole in my mind and etched itself inside.
It's like it never leaves me alone, and everything I said that day, makes me cringe at myself.
I don't deserve their friendship. They are too good for me.
-------------------------------------------------------------

I waited at my house for Tiana and Sarah to arrive, we had decided to go to the party together.

When they arrived, Tiana was already a little high, and she was constantly giggling, she entered the bathroom and started dancing in front of the mirror saying 'I'm a queen, you do what I say, or I'll throw a cherry seed at you! '
She then started removing her top and struggling to do so, when Sarah ran to her and threw her into the closet and locked her in.

She gave me a look that said - she is a complete donkey, we need a way to take care of her. - I smiled at her and began getting ready. Tiana kept on banging the door and yelling, 'Let me out, I need to get to Tarzan. He's hidden my hair! ' She then burst out of the closet, her bra on her hand, singing to Niki Minaj's Anaconda.
I dialed a number.
'Hello, is this the Mental Asylum?'

-------------------------------------------------------------

The party was in full swing when we arrived. There were bodies conked out in the lawn, anthe leaves rustled, I didn't even want to know what was going on in there.

We entered the house, or palace, as I would like to call it. It was so freaking huge, that I could compare it to Hogwarts.

There were bodies clinging on to each other, horny teenagers grinding against each other, and people dancing messily in the dance floor, which was actually the living room, where the sofas had been pushed up against the wall.
Music throbbed and my ears were already hurting me.

Tiana, who had recovered a little, by now, squeezed my shoulders a d said, 'Loosen up, you need to have some fun'
And I did just that.

I searched for Alex, and found him next to the bar, where he was talking to his mates.
He hugged me when he saw me, and snaked a hand around my waist leans his head on my shoulder.

'I'm gonna go and get something g to drink. I'm parched. See you around babe' I said and walked away.

I went to the bar and ordered a sprite. I wasn't gonna drink today. I always make a fool of myself when I do.
I received my drink, and wasn't it down in n just one gulp.
Damn, I was my thirsty.
I ordered for another one and that one also was gone within a couple of minutes.
'Suddenly, I felt really adventourous, and ordered ten Vodka shots, I had soon downed them and now was REALLY high.
I staggered to the dance floor, and started dancing like there was no tomorrow. This stranger dude came in and started grinding against me and I wasn't stopping him.

Suddenly, he was pushed away, and Tiana came into view. 'What are you doing Gab? Are you drunk? How much did you drink? '
I just giggled in response and sat down on the dance floor. I started saying with my hair and singing in a loud and off-tuned voice.

Tiana sighed and dragged me towards the kitchen, and made me drink three glasses of water before letting go of me.
I was now much better, and smiled at Tiana. She hit me on my shoulder and warned me not to drink another sip of alcohol the whole night.

I nodded.
Suddenly, we heard a commotion outside.
We rushed towards the sound, and what we saw, almost made me laugh out loud.

A very angry Sarah was standing in front of some girl, who I'm sure was not up to anything good.
She and Sarah were all prepared for a shot-drinking contest.
Sarah can handle her drinks much better than Tiana and I. She couldn't get tipsy even if she wanted to.

Soon, the contest began, and they both started downing the shots.
Sarah was the first to finish and she started dancing, after standing on the table.
We all cheered for her and the three if us started dancing together.

I suddenly had an intense craving for more all OK how in my body, so I sneaked off to the bar and grabbed a bottle.
I chugged down the contents of the bite as fast as lightning and by now, I was completely wasted.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I was currently on the road, only in my underwear and I had no idea where I was going.

I just walked on, along the streets, and suddenly, I had this genius idea. I started crossing the street, with my hands over my eyes, and suddenly I could hear blaring horns, and screeching brakes, and I was pulled away from the street by a pair of hands.

It was Sarah.

'What the f**k Gabriel! Are you freaking insane? You could have been killed. That's it! You are going HOME! NOW! '

Tiana came trotting behind, she looked at Sarah's angry face, and understood at once that I had done something g wrong.

I just stood there, staring at Sarah, who was ranting at me with all her might, telling me how angry she was, and how badly I could have gotten hurt.
All this was giving me a bad headache, or maybe it was just the alcohol kicking in, but I finally screamed.

'Enough Sarah! Why are you even yelling at me? I mean it's not like you're my mom. You have no right to yell at me like that when you go off having stupid drinking contests with girls you have never even seen before! You can't bloody say a word to me, you understand! Who do you think you are?
Heck, you can't even tust yourself enough to go and tell the guy you've practically worshipped for the past two years that you like him. He bloody had to come and ask you. Do you even know how many nights have gone by, with me listening to nothing but your bloody rants about your mother, as if I have nothing better to do than sit and listen to all your problems all day?
Just quit it! Damn! '

After this little episode, Sarah just stares at me, with empty eyes and all she said was, 'Exactly Gab. I have no right to do or say anything about your stupid life. It's not like I have know you since you were freaking born right? I mean, who can beat that? I'll do as you say, from today onwards, I'll stay away from you, and your precious life, which I must say, is pretty messed up!', saying this she walked away, without turning back.

Tiana looked at Sarah's retreating figure and sighed.
She looked at me and said, 'Gab, you really screwed up this time. '

She then walked away to Sarah, leaving me alone, on the streets.

'God!' I thought to myself, 'There's just so much melodrama in my life right now! '
