My Only Angel::Harry Styles

*Harry's POV* (Friday night)
Every year, our friend Ashton Irwin and his band 5sos have a party. It's at the same house every year, a house that belongs to one of their security guards, but is never used; except for when it's time for the party.

Usually, you won't run in to any of the members of 5sos, or even a single celebrity. That's how many people show up. It's an open invite, so whoever wants to come can, so people often take advantage of the opportunity. Nobody except 5sos' close friends know it's their party, and they try their best to keep it a secret so no fangirls/boys pop up, but you can't always stop the fangirls/boys. They take safety precautions, such as a metal detector that is existent wherever a door in the house is. That's how secured it is, which is why i felt safe inviting Olivia. Apart from the fact that i want to get to know her a lot better, and have a good time with her, i wanted to make sure we could be in a decent environment where she can have fun with me and not have to worry about being in danger.

I knew Lou and Niall would sprint for the drinks as soon as we got out of the car, which is exactly what happened. Olivia wasn't paying attention, so i shrugged at Liam over her shoulder and ran away with her. Liam just laughed in disbelief and shook his head, as well. I know it sounds mean to leave him behind so quickly, but this is an annual event. Liam is always stuck babysitting us, and personally, i don't think he minds all that much. As long as we're back at the car around 12:30am-1:30am, he's nice enough to get/make us food in the morning.

Outside of the party was packed, but inside was worse. You got at least .1 of an inch of breathing room and definitely not enough space to talk or drink. Therefore, after Olivia and i grabbed our drinks, i led her upstairs where it was a little less crowded. She followed me into a random room and we sat down across from each other on the floor. Almost every other room was occupied by couples making out or frat boys just messing around, probably doing drugs, so we took one of the last available rooms. Every year i'm noticed by ten people max, since everyone else is too drunk to notice who i even am.

The first few years the boys and i came, we drank until we were throwing our guts up in the toilet. Nowadays, i drink two, maybe three beers tops and a shot or two as well. Definitely not enough to get me tipsy, let alone completely wasted like i used to. Don't get me wrong, i love my parties, it's just i'm more mature now and i know how to drink responsibly at twenty two years old.

"So... why are we here? Wouldn't you rather be downstairs, partying with your friends?" Olivia asked me taking a small sip out of her red solo cup.

"Well, to be completely honest with you, yes. But i wasn't about to leave a beautiful girl at this insane party all alone." I responded smirking, before taking a sip from my cup as well. I swallowed and winced at the bitter taste. Beer didn't always taste like this? I grew worried immediately. What if someone spiked my drink? That's enough drinking for the night, Styles. I played it off cool though, trying to not make it obvious that i wasn't drinking out of this specific cup anymore.

"I could've stayed with Liam." She responded after a while, staring blankly at the floor. I couldn't help but let out a laugh.

"You wouldn't have lasted five minutes with Liam." I stated shaking my head. She shot me a confused look, and then began to smirk.

"And why is that?" She raised an eyebrow.

"He's a good time and all, but at this party all he does is..." i thought about it for a moment, realizing that i really have no clue what Liam does when we're having fun.

"Huh. I'm not sure what he does, but whatever it is, it's boring as hell. Believe me, i know Liam." I said staring at her as she continued to smirk.

"Hmm.. is that a challenge? Are you challenging me to spend more than five minutes at this party with Liam?" She asked beginning to stand. I shrugged and laughed at her eagerness. She was so adorable.
