This is fricking crazy. Fifty people? I don't think so, there's at least fifty people in this room, and god knows how many more in the lounge and garden. I don't even know where Ashton is, I'm just sitting on the sofa next to some random girl with brown hair. She's kind of pretty, in fact she's really hot, and if I was straight is probably date her, but there's some blonde dude glaring at me from across the room, so I stand up and move away, and sure enough he's the first to slide into my seat. "Hi, I'm niall-" I hear him introduce himself before I'm lost in the party and can't hear any more.

I make my way through the crowds of people until I make it to the back door and step out into the garden. The music is too loud, it's blaring Fall out Boy and I know the neighbours are gonna flip... I pick out the oh so familiar curls in front of me, next to some bleach blonde barbie airhead, and I see her running her hands all over him. In my head I call her a not-so-nice words, before grabbing her by the dress (which is hard considering how little material it's made from) and chuck her out the door.

"Hey, you can't just make me leave, who even are you?" She smacks her gum obnoxiously. Who even chews gum at a party?

"I'm luke, this is my party. You're leaving. Get your friends and go."

Thankfully, she takes a posse of clones from the kitchen and stalks out. There's a few less people at least.

Next step, Ashton. I bump into him on the way back inside, and he's completely smashed off his head. "Lukey-y look at you," he slurs, "throwing people out like you own the place!"

I throw an arm round his waist, "Ash, babe, I do own the place." I ruffle his hair and he smacks me across the back of the head. What even is this ? I'm still sober, I've only had a couple of drinks... Maybe four? Whatever.

I hear Michael yelling something from inside, and, still entangled with Ashton, go into the living room. Everyone's sitting in a wonky kind of circle and I -

Oh no. Truth or dare.

Or should I be thinking oh yes? Whatever. I take a seat in between Jenna and Calum, while ash crosses the circle and flops across Liam on the sofa. Liam looks bemused, as I don't think he's ever met Ashton, and I snicker to myself.

"What are you laughing?" Calum asks. "You just laughed really loudly."

Dammit. Just start the game!

Calum goes first, predictably, and has to give striptease to some chick called Sadie. It's her turn next and she goes truth, and I stop listening cos it's boring as hell. Niall, he blonde guy from earlier, picks truth, and the room falls silent, because he's asked to reveal his feelings for a girl called Esmee. This should be good. Hey, it's the brunette from earlier!

"Um, Esmee, I sit behind you in biology? You might not know who I am, but you have nice hair and I always want to stroke it."

Why would you admit that to a chick. Especially one thatnits kind of obvious that you like.

"Anyway, I uh, really like you..." For someone so drunk, nialls certainly blushing and being cute. Esmees looking shocked but smiling, and there's a collective "awwwww" from everyone in the group. This is how it should be for me and ash! I should be the one making my way across the circle and snuggling in his lap, not esmiall. Or niallsmee? Dammit, drunk brain.

It's my turn now, dare? Yeah why not.

"Ok..." Calum's looking deviously at Michael, and suddenly I regret my choice.

"I dare you to take a body shot..."

"OFF OF ASHTON!" Michael yells.

Everyone starts laughing and going like "ohhhhh this should be good" , you know, in that way people do.
