Him

chapter 13

I quietly got in my car and backed out if the drive way. I never snuck out before. What I was doing was something out of my comfort zone. But I mean you have to learn to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. Right?

I needed to let loose. To not be filled with anger and hatred. I needed to surround myself with good vibes. And that's what I'm gonna do.

I arrived at Todds house and parked. It was packed. It was only 6:30 and people were already hammered and passed out along the sidewalk. I walked inside and all I see is sweaty bodies grinding together to the beat of the music. Letting loose and vibing together. I didn't know anyone at this party at all. Like I was lost and lonely but I didn't let that stop me.

I walk past the group of people dancing together to the kitchen, when I was approached by a brunette who was clearly drunk. "Wassuhhhh!!" She spitted out. Literally. I wiped my face and laughed fakely. "Hey" I said while laughing. "You wan-wanna drink?" She asked. I hesitated but then nodded my head. She cheered and put her arms around me guiding me to the bar.

She was chill. Though she was shit faced drunk. I never drank before. But I needed to let loose and be free. "2 shots of tequila please. And keep them coming!" The brunette shouted. We were getting along, though I doubt she knew my name and she was wasted to the point where I don't even know how she hasn't passed out yet.

I held the shot glass in my hand and stared at the liquid. I was about to do something that was new to me. But life is about trying new things right? I tipped the glass into my mouth and felt a burning sensation in my throat. Well shit. I didn't think it would be that strong. I took another and after the 3rd one the burning was gone. I stopped myself at 3 because i wanted to actually remember this moment and because I'm driving.

The brunette, who I later found out is named Alexa, handed me a red cup of "punch" and dragged me to the dance floor and We started dancing. Then after 4 sips of my cup I started to feel weird. A good weird though. I felt free. I felt the weight being lifted off my shoulders. I started getting more into the music, swaying my hips to the song and dancing to the beat. Me and Alexa were dancing and grinding to the beat, and we're having a good damn time

***

It was about 10 o'clock the last time I checked, and the songs started to slow down. Alexa met a dude and started dancing with him and left me alone. I didn't care though. I was swaying to the music solo, enjoying every moment of this night. That was Until I felt a pair of hands wrap around my waist and whisper in my ear, "damn doll face." From that moment I knew who it was. I turn around and I was faced with Grayson. I smirk and behun to dance with him. I started grinding on him, feeling his bulge on my butt and I laugh. Dang, he's a easy turn on huh? I was just having fun until I notice a pair of eyes watching me from the corner of the room. It was Ethan.

Ethans POV

"Yo E! Look at that Ana girl!" I hear Grayson yell over the music. I turn Around and I fix my eyes on a girl with a tight, black dress dancing with another girl. There is no way thats Ana? She was swaying to the music with a smile on her face and laughing. She seemed happy - She seemed different. The last time I saw her was when she was filled with anger and shock and passed out. But seeing her like this, vibing and happy, it made me feel this sense of relief.

The loud base if the music soon breaks me out of my daze and I look at gray who is eyeing her up and down. "I'm gonna get that!" Is the last thing I hear Grayson yell before I see him approach Ana. Fucking shit!

He slipped through the cracks and approached her from behind. He slid his hands around her waist and whispered something in her ear. She whipped around and smirked.

At that moment I wanted to knoxk the fuck out of him. I was pissed, and for some reason heartbroken. I didn't want anyone to touch her like that. Especially my brother. I looked away and sat down, watching him and Ana in disgust.  She was grinding on him and laughing and what it seemed like she was having the time of her life. She then spots me and glances in my direction for a good minute. I look down and sip from my cup trying to not make eye contact. I couldn't see her with him anymore. I got up and started to walk towards them. And that's when I see Ana leave for the bathroom.

Ana's POV

After met with Ethan's gaze, I saw him look down real quick and sip from his cup. After a minute he gets up. I look at Grayson and see him starting to dance with another girl So I decided to go to the restroom. I gotta pissss.

As I'm making my way down the hall, my head starts to spin and I started to lose balance. Luckily I caught myself and got back up. Watch it Ana!

I headed back down the hall after I was done with my business, and my vision started to blurr. Then my eyes adjusted and I was alright. Got I'm fucked.

I headed for the front door when I ran into Ethan. I looked up at him and he looked down at me. Well shit I never knew how hot he actually was. I bit my lip and looked at him up and down. He smirked and I walked outside. The cold air stung my skin and I started to feel light headed. I started to stumble and then all i could feel was the hard, cold ground under me and I blacked out.

Ethan's POV
I was walking towards the door to leave when I noticed Ana stumbling slightly down the hall and up to the front door. She stops in front of me and stares at me. I glance at her for a good minute when I see her bite her lip and eyeball Me up and down. I gotta admit it was pretty hot but funny. I smirk and she walks out the door. I follow and that's when I see her loosing her balance and face plant on the concrete.

Goddammit Ana why did you have to wear heels while drinking.
