DANCE WITH ME

[Kinzy's POV]

We stayed at long awkward silence throughout the ride. Why did I tell him about how I feel? I let out a sigh. I never got the chance to see his reaction about my confession since he look out the window after so I just calm down myself. Maybe we can talk about it later. Maybe I could ask him what he thought about it. Oh god, I'm so dead.

We arrived at Shin's place exactly 6 in the evening. I parked the car beside Cage's white Honda Civic. He drove this when he knows he will be drunk. Yeah, it's ok to break it down instead of his Lykan Hypersport.

I step out of the car after I turn the engine off then grab the key out of the keyhole. I run into the side of the car to open it for Ethan who struggles to pull the seatbelt off his body. I lower my body in front of him then grab the seatbelt and step back so he can step out of the car. When he is outside, I lock the door.

"Let's go," I said.

"Are you sure it's okay if I just barge in?"

"I told you, they want to hanged out with you." and he nodded.

I grabbed Ethan by his wrist and walk inside the house. They were all there dancing at the music Shin is playing. Sweat and soaked. There's also a bunch of hot babes at the round table where they are sitting cuddling each of the girls. Wow! They really are look like a dirty old man. Seriously. I smirk.

"Hi babe," a blond girl snakes her arms in my neck dragging me down to meet her lips. It's just a smack so I didn't bother and smile to her.

I didn't know her but she's familiar to me. "Hi," so I just said.

"Come, let's party." She said into my ears.

"Yeah, go ahead." I slowly push her away from me especially when Ethan's eyes are drilling hole in our faces.

"Hey slut, get off him." a familiar voice said, pushing the girl aside and I smile

"Hey," I happily grab Hunter and then give him a bro hug while tapping his shoulder. I have never been so happy seeing him not until now.

"You're late." Hunter said then gives me and Ethan a bottle of beer.

"No we're not, see?" I show him the time in my wrist watch. "We are on time." I chuckle to Hunter's expression.

"Nah, whatever," Hunter lifts both his hands in the air in surrendering way. We both laughed to that.

When Hunter leaves us to go to his date, my eyes averted to Ethan who is beside me while staring at the bottle he was holding. Ethan swallows hard when he saw the brown bottle of beer. "You okay with that?" I leaned closer to him since we can't really hear each other, thanks to Shin who turns his house into a disco bar.

"I don't know. I never tried it before." He said while shaking his head.

"Really? That's weird." I shrugged my shoulder to him. I drink from my bottle. "How old are you anyway?"

"18." He just said.

"Oh, so you can now drink alcohol legally."

"Yeah, what does it taste like?"

"Why don't you taste it?"

He shook his head.

"Okay, give it to me." I grabbed it away from his grip and put it back to the tray at the counter. "Just stick closer to me if you don't want them to handle you." I whisper to him and he immediately complied by dragging the hem of my shirt at my back. I chuckle to his gesture. He looks like three years old in his first party attended with his dad. He just smiles at me.
