A L E X I S - Chapter 4

"You look amazing," Yasmin said, walking through the front door as I stood with Natalia, greeting people as they came into the party.

"Likewise," I told her, admiring the white dress that she was wearing.

"I'll go and get you a drink and then you can dance with me," she said before disappearing into the steadily growing sea of people. Music was playing, the lights had been dimmed and there was already a shit tonne of red-plastic cups laying around.

"Oh god, thanks for inviting my brother," I joked sarcastically to Natalia as Eli walked in with the 'golden boys'. Jason heading the pack, he looked so good tonight, with his black ripped jeans and casual white shirt that made him look effortlessly hot. I was certain that the boy could wear a bin bag and still look gorgeous in it.

"Nice to see you too Lexi," Eli replied, rolling his eyes as he walked over to me.

"Talk later," I replied pushing him to follow the other boys. My brother had managed to worm himself into the inner circle over the five days that we'd been here, and I was now on my way to doing the same.

Jason hung back after they left, turning to me as he came closer with a devilish glint in his eyes. "New girl," he said acknowledging me and raising his eyebrows, marking the first time since Monday that he'd actually stopped to have a proper conversation with me.

"You look smoking," he continued, complimenting me as he took slow steps forward.

"You look pretty nice too," I replied with a smile.

"Want a drink?" He asked, "I know how to whip up a good cocktail."

"Sure," I answered shrugging before he disappeared the same way that everyone else had towards the bar.

"I'm done greeting people, latecomers can greet themselves," Natalia told me. "Shots?"

"Of course," I said as she took my hand and led me through the masses of people. "Let's get this party started!"

Thankfully, she clearly hadn't heard the conversation that I'd had with Jason, as I realised how awkward that could've made things between us if she did actually like him having heard that. Hoping that she didn't although for what reason I'm not entirely sure, all thoughts of the two of them together disappeared as we arrived at the makeshift bar in her kitchen.

Slipping behind the counter and unscrewing the cap off a bottle of vodka, she grabbed some clean shot glasses from a cupboard before setting them down in front of me. Pouring them out without spilling any of the alcohol, we were joined at that moment by Yasmin as we all took a shot and downed it before going back for seconds.

The cycle repeated for a while before Natalia decided to go and dance, but me and Yasmin (still sat at the bar) were instead met by Jason, who had actually done what he'd said he would and made me a drink.

Passing me some sort of concoction that he'd whipped up similar to the other cup that he was holding in his hands, I took a swig of the mysterious liquid - the strong flavour exciting my taste buds.

"This is amazing! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I exclaimed, chugging the rest of it down before watching the smirk rise to his lips. "Let's go and dance!"

Taking Yasmin's hand and dragging her towards the music, I let the bass take control as we danced, having fun and laughing all the while. "I'm going to go the bathroom," she shouted to me over the music after about half an hour of solid dancing.

"I'll wait here," I told her, continuing to dance although I was alone this time. I wondered how many people must've been invited to this party, because stood amongst such a big crowd, it felt like hundreds. Loving the atmosphere and the buzz that this type of crowd brought about, I swung my hips to the sultry song that was being played through the speakers.

Feeling strong but gentle hands position themselves on my waist, I was twirled into a male body without having a chance to look up and see who my partner was. Gathering what he was trying to do, I stopped caring about who it could be (probably the liqueur going to my head) and grinded against him from where he had positioned me on his body.

I could tell from the noises that he began to make and the increased pressure on my hips that whoever it was, was enjoying every second. His gentle hands raising my arms and hooking them behind his neck, I only broke contact with him when he began placing soft kisses down my neck. Twirling out of his grips - my eyes widened when I realised that I'd been dancing with my favourite bad boy, Jason fucking Silver the whole time.

"Damn, I didn't think you'd be able to move like that new girl. I'm impressed," he said, his voice sending ripples across my skin.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked, raising an eyebrow critically.

"I just thought with you being a virgin and all-" he joked before I stopped him with a hand on his chest.

"A virgin? What makes you think that I'm a virgin?" I huffed before walking to the quieter kitchen area, knowing that he would follow.

"No reason," he said shrugging, the intention of him trying to irritate me purposefully becoming more and more clear.

"Well for the record Jason, although it is none of your business - I have slept with guys before. Many actually," I replied, slurring my words ever so slightly.

"Of course you have," he teased, pulling me closer to him as I rolled my eyes.

"Have I told you how great you look tonight?" He asked now, a firm hand on my back as our bodies were centimeters away from each other.

"Yes, but I don't want to hear it anymore, at least not from you. I look like a fucking sex bomb and I know it," I replied before slipping away from his body and slinking off to go and find one of my friends. Or just anyone else that I could recognise and that wasn't Jason. 'Are you a fucking virgin? yeah right.'
