Song recommendation: Blue, Troye Sivan
Jacks pov

Today was the day of the party at Zach's.Its been a week and it feels like a day. I have been talking to Blue almost ever second I have free time.
Martin in the other hand hasn't stopped asking me for relationship advice with Christina.
I'm being forced to go to his house before the party to help him get ready.
I get in my car and head to his house. As I get out of the car I reach for the door and the door opens before I even get a chance to knock.

He smiles and leads me to his room, and Jesus if I thought he was crazy before, he is now on a whole new level of crazy. His room is plastered with different posters. He has a pile of shirts with his jokes on them.

"First of all, girls don't care about what's on your shirt Martin" I say throwing a shirt at his face."laughing at him.

" I didn't ask you to change me as a person Jack, I want her to like me for who I am." He sighs.
If Martin wasn't black mailing me I actually would think he's a pretty decent guy, but in reality he's a fucking prick.But that's life for ya. As I get in my car I say goodbye to Martin and head my way to pick up my friends.

I'm used to the other kind of party. The kind where you get to someone's house and their mom shows you down to the basement, and there's junk food and Apples to Apples and a bunch of people randomly singing. Maybe some people playing video games."
I'm that person who has never smoked a cigarette or gotten drunk or anything like that, but I once ate five full jars of Nutella in one sitting. I do not recommend.

Once I picked up my friends they all where wearing costumes, Daniel went as a ninja, of course he did. When we got there the house was covered in flashing lights and you could hear the music from a few blocks away.

We where invited early so we could help set up, seems like they did that already.When we walked in music was blasting, and there Zach and Garret where sipping out of their red solo cups. I never realized how attractive Zach is,I was starring at him. He looked at me and laughed. Hey, wanna set up beer pong with me? Zach asked.

S-sure I stuttered, really Jack really.

We walked over to the table, he asked me if I wanted a drink, I know I really shouldn't but there was something in his eyes luring me in and captivating me.
Daniel walked over "Jacky you don't drink, what's gotten into you, plus your driving, be safe."
I rolled my eyes, I'm sick of people underestimating me, I took a sip of the drink almost spitting it up, shit that's stronger then what I've had before.
Zach laughed his head off, "common people are here let's play some beer pong"

Before I could reply Martin pulled me to the corner of the room
"Hey Jack, please invite her over, you know what will happen if you don't"

I walk over to where Corbyn and Christina are, hey Christina play some beer pong with me and Martin here.She doesn't say anything as she gets led to the table, she makes eye contact with me, a kind of look where she could be saying "kill me now".

"Alright we all know the rules right"Zach says
I definitely didn't so I just went along anyway.

The game goes on forever and I'm starting to see stars.I go to sit down and then someone slides in beside me.

"Can I sit here?" he asks, and my eyes snap open.
It's Cute Zach Herron, he has the soft eyes and baseball calves.
Zach Herron : You're not into Abby, are you? He asked
Where the hell did he get that from.
Jack : She's cute, but she's just not really my type. Not because she's black. I love black women. Not like, you know, I have a thing for black women, I just, I just, I just love all women.
Man I fucked up I think as the sentence just flows out of my mouth. I'll blame it on the alcohol.

Zach: Oh my god Oreos are so good, I feel like they are my cure to anything.

Jack: My mind is moving a million miles an hour, he's Blue, I mean he might be.
I wobble out of the seat and tell him I'm going to the washroom.

[drunkenly practicing in front of a mirror]
Jack: Hey, Zach, it's me, Curly . Zach , I'm Curly . Hey, Blue, it's me, Curly. Why did I pick Curly ?

It's been about an hour I get out of the bathroom and walk up the stairs, I reach for the handle and I see Zach on top of Abby.
"I'm sorry, I thought this was the bathroom"I say closing my eyes hiding tears in my eyes.
I walk out the room seeing stars the room moving around, almost as if the world where to be spinning. How could this day get any worse? I walk down the stairs and look for Daniel, I run into Martin, he vomits all over me, now I am totally disgusted. Daniel sees me and runs to start the car immediately.

He drags me into the car helping me put on my seat belt. He laughs at me with my drunken state.

"What the hell are we going to do, my parents are home" I said slowly.
I need you to think of something sad- like the whales that hate living in SeaWorld." Daniel chuckled
"Too sad."I yelled

Kristin Stanford (aka Jacks Mum): Hey, you guys. How was the party?
Daniel : It was really fun.
Jack: Aces.

They shuffled up the stairs, Jacks parents laughed as they here the banter going on between the boys.

[referring to Jack]
Dean Stanford: He's wearing a woman's sweater and he's drunk.
Kristin Stanford: Well, he didn't drive drunk and he's home before curfew, so.
Dean Stanford: That's what I thought we know. We're good parents, right?
Kristin Stanford: Yeah, we're good parents.She laughed.

Just like two weeks ago the boys where laying down on his bed, talking quietly to each other.
"Do you ever have those random nights where your brain won't shut off, even though your body feels like five hundred pounds of exhausted? I'm just going to say that and I hope that's okay and I know this is probably going to be totally incoherent so you can't judge me, okay?

Daniel :have you ever been in love?

Jack: I think so, I've definitely been heart broken, so yes.

Before he could even reply my mind went blank and I fell asleep.
