Key To My Heart [Devan Key]

The Party.

Shais POV:
(September 7th)
"Today is the day." I think while getting up from my bed. So, Devan is taking me some senior party. I am honestly looking froward to it, I know its weird.

I haven't really gone to any 'partys' per say. But I have been to after school gatherings and stuff.

Never anywhere where alcohol would would most likely be served. I have had alcohol before, only out of depression because of Mari.

And nobody knows that I have. So, I'm not gonna mention that, if I am offered a drink I don't know if I will take it. But right now I need to focus on getting ready for school. Dev and I have a daily routine now. We get ready separate then we meet outside and I drive him to school.

He hasn't gotten a car yet and he also said even when he does get one it won't be as fun as riding with me. He's so sweet. I am taking my chances tonight by going to this party with him. I am really trying to see where we stand right now.

Because honestly I don't know where we stand. I am trying to make myself be ready for a relationship with someone. But I am still healing. There is like this war going on in my head and in my heart. My heart wants to be "more involved" with Devan and my head is saying "You can't attach yourself to someone. You can get hurt. Don't take a chance". And I don't know what to do.

Right now I am brushing my teeth. I brush my hair and put it in a messy fishtail braid.

I am feeling lazy today and Don't care if i look good..... For now. I run downstairs to eat. I just eat some cereal and I'm out the door. I have a feeling today is going to be a long day, im just looking forward to going to that party with Dev. I see Devan at his normal place, leaning on my car. "Love the jacket." he says with a smile. "Thank you. Good morning." I say with a huge grin on my face now that I'm with Devan.

Today I let Devan play his music. Which is mostly "Basic white chick" music. "Cmon Devan you don't like anything else but all the pop music played on the radio?" I ask.
"Well I like your music too, but I don't listen to it alot."
I smile at the thought that he likes my music. We make our way to school and once again when I walk in people stare and whisper. Devan goes to class, as do I.

School wasn't very interesting except I didn't see Devan a lot in the halls. Which is a bit weird because I ways see him in the hallway. But I don't worry about it. The only thing I worry about is getting home so I can get ready. I will have a little time to kill so I am going to take Dev out for Ice Cream or something. I meet up with him at my car "So how bad was school for you?" I ask.

"It was actually Ok today. Im really just looking forward to that party." he says excitedly.
"Me too, hey Dev do you wanna grab some Ice Cream or a snack and just chill for a while to kill time?"
"That sounds amazing! I'm in the mood for ice cream." he says
We chat very little in the car because the Ice Cream place is really close to the school. When we get our Ice Cream I say "Do you wanna make this a weekly thing? Like go have Ice Cream on Fridays?" I suggest

"Ya, now we can say we have OUR thing." he smiles. I know what he's thinking, he wants everything to be "ours". In my heart I want that but my head keeps getting in the way. We already know the basics about each other from hanging out during all our free time. But we are still getting to know each other so thats what we talk about.

"If you could have any pet what would it be?" he asks
"Er well, at the moment I would love a guinea pig. They are good partners."
"What would you name the guinea pig?" he asks
"Niall, because he would take alot of chonces." I bite my lip to hold in my laughter. "So many puns!" Devan laughs.
"You know thats one of my favorite things about you, your puns."

I don't know why but him saying this made me blush. I put my head down on the table to hide it but he still notices. "Your blushing." he said and I could hear the smirk on his face through his voice. "No I'm not." I deny. "Yes you are!"
"Nope!"
After that he finally gives up.

It is now 7:00 and I have a few hours to get ready. The party starts around 9. I put my dress on along with red heels. I take down my hair, my hair has natural wave to its so I decide to straighten it. Another reason I am straightening it is because it looks awkward because of the braid. Once I finish that I do my makeup. ⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇

Then when I am just about done and grabbing my jacket and purse I hear a knock at the door. I run downstairs and open it. "Hey." I say taking in how handsome Devan looks right now. His hair is perfect and messy at the same time. He has a blue shirt in which brings out his beautiful blue ey- wait Shai. Don't do this.

I don't care anymore he looks hot. Just because he looks hot doesn't mean I will fall for him. Right? When I snap out of my trance I realize Devan is taking in all of my beauty. "Y-you look....." he trails off
"Beautiful." He says. And again making me blush and I hide it... Again. "Thank you. Although I can't say the same for you...."
He looks at me confused. "Just kidding! Lets go. Who's driving?"
"I will, if you don't mind." he says.

I put the address in my phone and turn on the gps. He drives us to some seniors house. Apparently he is a fan of Collins so he invited him. The house looks HUGE. This kid must be rich or something because they sure do have nice stuff.

We walk in and see a bunch of people dancing, playing drinking games, and doing God knows what. There was music playing loud, they were actually playing good music. I took off my jacket and put it with the many others on the coat rack.
"Do you wanna drink?" Devan asks. I think about it. I mean one drink wouldn't hurt "Yea sure."
"Be right back."

I am now in the middle of a party, alone. So I play on my phone until I get pushed against the wall by some one. I recognize his face from school. He was that kid that tried to go out with me a few days ago. "Wann have some fun?" He says pulling my arm toward a room down a hallway. "No, let go of me!" I say trying to pull away but his grip is too tight.
He pulls me into the room and shuts the door. That gave me enough time to text Devan
Me:
Help!

It says he read it but he didnt answer. My phone gets knocked out of my hand by this dude. He tries to kiss me but I dodge it. His hand slips under my dress and I try to slap it away. And at that moment Devan bursts in the room.

His eye is swollen and his fists are red. "Get away from her!" he yells. He pulls him off of me before punching him. The guy runs off like a little girl. "Dev, your eye." I walk up to him to see it closer. "What happened?" I ask
"A fight. Its nothing there's always fights at partys." he says chuckling a little at the last part. "What was it about?"
"Nothing."

After that I give up. I go with him to get a drink again. He doesn't leave my side given what happened when he did. I drink one beer, and that turns into 2,3,4. I am drunk, but not drunk enough to forget what happens. But I am drunk enough to do something stupid.

Devan stayed sober for my sake, so he can drive us home. I drag him onto the dance floor and request that they play "These Girls" by WHY DONT WE. We were dancing real close and next thing I knew his lips made their way really close to mine. I didn't think so I kissed him.....
