— MAYA
would be dropped off at my house before the party, and we would walk to christian's. his house is only one block away from mine, so why waste gas? i texted apollo and asked if he wanted to come, but he kindly declined. i felt bad. i wanted to spend more time with him, he was a really nice guy. maya arrived at about 6:45, which left us enough time to walk, and for maya to check herself in the mirror about a hundred times. "maya you look fine." i kept repeating to the poor girl, but she never seemed to listen. we finally left the house around 7:15, and got to the party at about 7:25. as we walked up to the huge house on mercer street, we saw lines upon lines of cars up and down the street. christian's house was packed with people from all over. calabasas, malibu, bel-air, literally everywhere in the valley. as soon as we stepped in the door maya was getting compliments on how she looked. she looked gorgeous, but she doesn't need anymore confidence. trust me, she already has enough of that. maya walked off to go find jason, and just as i thought, i would be alone all night. that's how most parties go when it comes to maya. she brings me along, and then leaves me when we get there. by now it was probably 8:00, and i was all alone under a staircase, like harry potter, when she finally decided to come check on me. "hey norrrrr! are you ok? isn't this party funnnn?" she said, as she was clearly intoxicated.
"not really. i want to leave." i hissed.
"not yetttt! ry said he had a surprise for meeee!" she slurred.
"then go get it, i'll be outside." i said as i walked upstairs, trying to get away from the loud music and horny teenagers. i started walking around, exploring the second floor. there was a bathroom, 4 bedrooms, and a game room. i walked into one bedroom, which had its own terrace. i looked around and saw baseballs & dodger posters. all the boys played baseball, so it was hard to tell who's room it was.
"uh can i help you?" i heard someone ask. i quickly turned around and saw christian.
"n-no sorry. i was just trying to find a bathroom." i said as i looked down at my shoes. he probably thinks i'm stealing his crap or something like a weirdo.
"it's alright. it's right down that hallway." he said with a warm smile.
"thanks." i said as i made my way out of the room.
"wait. it's nora right? i'm christian, i don't think we've been correctly introduced to each other." he said with a wink. if this boy thinks he can get in my pants, he's crazy.
"oh kiss my ass yelich. ever since 5th grade you and your little group of rich kids have been making fun of me. and i don't know who the fuck you think i am, but i'm definitely not like your little whore girlfriend who lets you do whatever you want to her." i said, he went pale.
"but you're rich too! you can hangout with us!" he said following my down the hall. was he serious right now?
"christian what don't you understand? i don't want to be friends with you! the fact that you actually believe that the amount of money your parents make can determine who you want as your friends is ridiculous! we're seniors in high school for gods sake! it's time to grow the fuck up yelich, on some real shit." i knew he didn't have anything to say after that, so i just made my way out the party. i had to find jd and tell him to watch maya for me. i found the pair by the pool outside, looking like complete idiots staring into each other's eyes.
"um maya i'm gonna head out ok? ryland can you watch her for me?" i asked him.
"of course nora. i'll take care of her don't worry." he said with a smirk. ew.
"thanks." i said as i turned to walk away.
"wait nora! you know yelich has the biggest crush on you right? he's even gonna break up with lydia for you!" he said. he was clearly drunk, so i didn't believe a thing he said. nor did i care. christian stephen yelich was the biggest douche bag in southern california.
