Update: we are currently headed to this, "Finn" guy's house. I'm nervous as fuck. I'm sweating too, and I just got my period again.
Noah parked the car.
He took the keys out of the dash, and took his hands off the wheel. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" He put his head back. "Yeah, why?" I ask. Noah just shrugged innocently, as I reapply my lipstick in the mirror. "But no sex okay?" He blurts out. "E-Excuse me?" I turn to him in shock. "Kidding." He booped my nose and got out, making me frown.
We pushed through the front door. Literally. There was a couple viciously making out, three girls tying to take a selfie, and just people in the way. The music was thumping, and made my eyes hurt at the dimmed lights. Shit there's flashing lights. I thought. A small ball of worry formed deep inside my stomach. Flashing lights were bitches. Mostly because they caused my seizures. Or loud noises, stuff like that. But tonight was about having fun, not worrying. I took a deep breath, walking behind Noah as he went over to the drinks. He gulped one down already. "Mills!" A hand was planted on my shoulder from behind. It was Sadie. "Hey!" I hugged the girl, shortly introducing Noah after. "Oh, this is Noah," I say as they both shook hands quickly. "Ah, so you're the boy she "dragged along" with her." Sadie teased. "I guess so." Noah laughed. "Oh, this is Finn." Sadie led the tall boy with the dark hair over to our group we had formed. He was drunk and high. I think we could all tell. He was even drooling a little, his cigarette almost falling out of his mouth. He looked me up and down and licked his lips again, making me blush a little. "Go suck a dick, Wolfhard." Sadie rolled her eyes, pushing Finn back onto the dance floor. "Sorry about him." She yelled over the music. Noah and I both shook it off and followed Sadie to the back. "Caleb!" The red head blurted out of the blue. She hid behind Noah and I, forming us both into a shield almost. "What the fuck Sadie?" I yelled, looking down behind me. But before the girl could say anything, another tall boy walked up to us three, he could barely stand up. Sadie eventually stood up, shuffling her feet behind us, lowering her head. "Hey there red." The dark skinned boy flirted. Sadie just crossed her arms. "Who are your new friends?" He looked at Noah and I. "Caleb go away." She didn't make eye contact at all. Finn came patting the boy on the back, you know, the thing that guys do. "Hey!" He yelled. The two boys side by side honestly looked like they could either kill me, or kidnap you in a heart beat. Finn lit another cigarette as he looked at me intensely. This was really awkward.
The music then changed to a new song, thankfully lightening the air between us all a bit.
Sadie held my back and Noah's as we all turned on our heels and walked the opposite direction. "You guys want a drink?" She suggested, passing us some sort of liquid in the red cups. "Sorry about that, again." She shut her eyes in annoyance. "Who were those guys?" Noah asked. "Caleb, he's, he's my ex." She struggled. "Oh, I'm sorry." I put a fake smile on my face as I patted her shoulder. "Eh." She shrugged. "Anyways, there's a photo booth out back if you guys wanna go!" She pointed.
Update: there is a few minutes until it is officially the year 2003. I'm excited!
Noah put on huge ass glasses that read 2003 on the top, Sadie held up a sign that read HAPPY NEW YEAR, and I made a kissing face as the light flashed. We took a bunch. I'm definitely saving these. Everyone started to yell and whistle as we all counted down.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
