Chapter 23
I scurry down the steps of the strangers house and try to make my way back to the car as fast as possible. Tears stream down my face and my vision blurs tremendously. A drunken boy comes by and trips, falling right into me spilling his drink all over me. He laughs and stumbles away to go puke in a plant probably. This is disgusting. Since Katrina and Harry aren't out yet, I should probably go inside and clean this.
I make my way back inside. Blocking my nose from the awful smell reeking upon all these people. Some don't even look old enough to be at this party anyways. I scoff when I enter the bathroom finding only a small towel to clean up with.
People fall in and out of the bathroom leaning over the toilet to puke. I try not to gag myself, this is disgusting. Katrina ended up finding me and I told her I needed to clean up so I would just call someone else to pick me up. For one punch Harry got bruised quite badly so he needed to get home soon to ice it.
I walk back down the stairs toward the loud music only to get a drink shoved in my hand. The girl smiles as me and I shake my head.
"No I shouldn't" I shout over the loud music. I try handing the drink back over to her but she declines it.
"Nah! You look like you need it more than me!" She hums taking a sip from her cup. "Bad night?"
I nod my head taking a gulp from the cup. Maybe this is what I need to make me forget. Well, help e forget everything that has happened. To forget all the pain that I have been caused and is aching my heart. And also to lift some weight of my shoulders for a little while.
"Sort of." I tell the stranger.
Her hips sway along to the music as she hums along to the lyrics. "Come on and hang out with us, just have fun for a little."
"I don't know.." I look down at my feet which caused her to grab me by my sleeve and drag me over to her friends.
"I'm Kate, by the way!" She yells and points to the two guys on the couch, "This is Jack and Max."
Jack smiles at me and diverts his attention to someone making a fool of themselves on the dance floor. Max holds out his hand with the biggest grin on his face. I switch my now empty cup into my left hand and take hold of his hand with my right.
"Whats your name?" He asks leaning back into the couch him and Jack are sitting on.
Max has blonde hair and brown eyes. And Jack has dark brown hair and brown eyes. The difference between these two is that Max and hold his attention when Jack could just disappear in the crowd. He can't keep his attention on something for more a few seconds.
Kate comes back with four more cups and hands one to each of us. I put my new cup in my empty one and quickly take a chug.
"Elise." I reply looking back at Max. He nods and looks around the room his eyes landing on the dance floor.
Kate kicks his shoes and he glares up at her. Just by standing here you can already tell the friendship they have. It's just like the friendship Louis and I share. A friendship where you are not afraid to be yourself around the person.
"Anyone up for a game of truth or dear?" Jack offers, looking between all three of us. We all shrug and gather a group of people to play with us.
