I walked across the oval with Sage and Rachel towards Parks Dorm room. I could already distinctively hear Rhianna's voice screeching Please Don't Stop The Music, from the middle of the oval.
I think Rachel was already drunk, from the sounds of things, she was jumping and dancing around, while Sage and I walked slowly because of our painful shoes, mine not so much though, I was wearing kitten heels.
When we reached the doors, my eyes went wide and my mouth made the shape of an O. Their must be at least 100 people here, and they were acting seriously crazy. People were jumping on tables, and Oh My Gosh, Is that fire? Wait, now it's gone, had I imagined it? Whatever this school is weird, anyway.
"Hey you Made it!" Some girl came over and kissed Sage on the cheek.
"Oh.......And, you brought......Rachel..." The girl said unwillingly,when she noticed Rachel jumping around next to me.
"Hey Evieeeeeee!" The girl said, coming over to hug me and kiss me on the cheek.
"Err....Hi!" I said trying to be enthusiastic, even though she was a complete stranger, who knows my name. But I think everyone here does.
"Ohh, You probably don't know me I'm Kimmy, this is my party. Only the coolest people around" she said winking at me.
She put her arm around my shoulder and steered me over towards a group of guys on the other side the the massive common room, it was really dark inside, and being practically sleep deprived, made it a lot harder to keep my eyes open.
"Hey guys, this is Evie" The way Kimmy said it wasn't like she was introducing me, it was like she was just telling the that I was Evie, like they knew who I was but just didn't know what I looked like or anything. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised, because everyone knows who I am here, sooooo embarrassing.
When she said who I was, all there expressions changed, from nice and friendly to super friendly and a look of 'hey I've been waiting for you'.
"This is Bryce, Paul, Luke, Mercer and Jarred" Kimmy said pointing to each of them.
"Hi" they replied, I shacked a few of there hands.
"So what can you d-" Paul, I think, was cut off by Kimmy, who started coughing loudly.
"Wha- oh" paul said, understandingly.

I spent the next 2 hours talking with Mercer, Luke and Scarlet all of whom I realized are really nice. Scarlet Really like Mercer, I think Scarlet was practically in love with Mercer, except he had a girlfriend. Who was a total bitch, if you ask me. And Luke kept trying to get my attention, like every 5 seconds!
His girlfriends name was Ashley, she had long bleached hair, was almost anorexic, and was only wearing a black singlet top that barely Jarred went past her butt. But Mercer was smart, so I don't get why he is going out with such a ditz like her.
"I'm just going to get another drink" I said getting up and excusing myself from the conversation.
"Ok" Scarlet said, not taking her eyes off Mercer.
I was sticking to punch tonight, I'm not a drinking kind of girl. I walked over to the table with the drinks, I couldn't help staring at Jarred sucking the lips off of Sage on the armchair, near the punch table.
As I was standing at the table waiting for the punch to pore into my cup, from the water cooler, I was wishing that somehow I wouldn't have to look at Sage and Jarred making out anymore. But they were right next to me, jeez. Then all of a sudden my view of them was blocked, because the water cooler (filled with punch) had moved obscuring my view.
I stood there staring at the water cooler, unable to move. The punch started spilling onto the floor, breaking my stare. I grabbed some napkins, and cleaned up the spilt punch. I had moved the water cooler, with my mind, I don't know how I did it, but I know that it had been me.
That ruined my night, I went back to Mercer, Luke and Scarlet only to tell them I was going back to my dorm to go to bed.
"Aww don't go,the parties barely started yet" Scarlet said, I could tell she wanted me to stay, but she wanted to be alone with Mercer at the same time.
"I'm really tired, it would be like early morning in Jersey, so I'm practically sleep walking right now" I said joking with them.
"I'll.......Walk you there" Luke said getting up.
"Oh it's ok, you can stay here and have fun" I said
"Nahh, party's kinda dead anyway" Luke said as if he wouldn't take no for an answer.
He followed me outside.
"So how are you liking Waverton?" Luke said, with his hands in his pockets.
"It's all right, you know, but it's kinda weird if you ask me" I replied.
"Weird?"
"Well, yeah. I didn't even apply, and what's with this whole 'what can you do'? It's weird" I said conversationally. Luke started coughing.
"What?" he asked in between coughs.
"Yeah everyone keeps trying to ask me what I can do, but then someone cuts them off, it's weird" We were in the middle of the oval now, Luke realizing this started walking slower.
"Umm, yeah.......So I heard you're sharing with 'Minnie'" Luke said making quotation marks in the air, when he said Minnie.
"What's wrong with her?" I said a little defensively.
"Well, nothing, but she's a little shallow, if you ask me" Luke said processing my change in mood.
"Oh, well.......She's nice to me"
"I never said she wasn't nice....just stuck up"
"Are there parties like that all the time here?" I said trying to change the subject.
"Nah, just on holidays, like at the end, when people come back to school......Did you......have a.......Boyfriend back in New Jersey?" Luke said looking embarrassed.
"No" I answered, and Luke's face lit up.
We had reached my dorm room now, I stared up at Luke's pale blue eyes, his golden hair falling slightly into his left eye, my gaze dropped to his lips, and he seemed to be doing the same. But if there's one thing Mary taught me, it's to always make a guy chase you. So just as Luke leaned in, I moved my face and said goodnight. Stunned for a second composed himself, and said goodnight too.
"Hope to see you again" I said mysteriously, as I walked inside and headed for the stairs. I giggled, if Mary could see me now, she would be proud, I thought.
