song: ride or die by the knocks (ft. foster the people)

it was two weeks before the start of junior year and i wasn't even close to ready. my parents were going to my sisters college move in day today so it was just me and our two dogs. i said my goodbyes to my parents and they left with caroline to college. i sat on my couch with a huff. four days alone. i had no clue what to do so, i pulled my phone out and texted vivianna.

me- wanna hang out today?

vivi- sure be there in fifteen

me- sounds good

as i waited for vivi i looked on snapchat. i looked at ethan's story and saw him and amber together. i rolled my eyes. i looked at ambers story, which came next, and saw her and ethan together. she filmed her kissing him. i scoffed. i never really liked amber, like at all. she was the mean girl and didn't deserve ethan at all. me and gray would discuss this stuff all the time. he had a caring, sweet personality and she just, well she's a bitch. to be blunt. i turned my phone off and turned on the tv. i flipped between a couple different channels, unable to decide which one i liked, till i heard my doorbell. i went to go grab it when vivi burst through.

"sike i would never knock on your door!" she said laughing. i smiled and rolled my eyes.

"come in i guess." i said. she followed me to the kitchen as we grabbed random snacks. we stood at my island, eating, till she spoke.

"there's a party tonight at peters, wanna check it out?" she said.

"i don't know" i said shrugging, "party's aren't my thing." i said closing the chip bag.

"come on syd, live a little. it's junior year and you need to get out there. especially if you wanna get with wes." she wiggled her eyebrows at me.

i sighed and looked at v, "fine." i said.

"fuck yes! thank you syd!" she said jumping up and down. i smiled at her goofyness. "it's at eight so we have three hours to get ready." she said walking upstairs. i followed unsure of what tonight would bring.

after we got our outfits picked out we started to get ready. vivi fixed my hair and i finished my makeup. we got dressed and were all ready to go.

"ooh look how hot you are!" she said as i walked down the stairs. i wasn't too fancy, nor was she. i just had shorts and a crop top on.

"stop omg let's just go." i said laughing. she giggled and followed me out the door to the car. as i drive to the house, she messed with my radio.

"you have no good channels, where'd your aux go?" she asked me.

"here." i said grabbing the cord and handing it to her. "i can't find the house where the party is." i confessed. she grabbed my phone and pulled up maps.

"take a left and park along the street." i followed her directions and parked. i looked up at the house and saw the party and a bunch of drunk kids in the yard, puking. classy. i got out and walked with vivi to the house.

"it doesn't look so appealing." i said to viv causing her to laugh.

"you'll be fine after i get you a drink." she said pulling me into the house. we dodged all the sweaty body's and sexually active teens till we got to the kitchen. she poured me a cup of i don't know what and i took a sip. the liquid burned my throat and i coughed.
