Harry's P.O.V
I tapped my chin as I wrote out a rough draft. My class was assigned to write a fake report about any problems that people face in Day to Day life and I was doing mine of kids being bullied because that's a high problem in everyday life. "Honey I'm home" Niall said as he walked in "Hey Ni" I said as he plopped down on the couch next to me. "You are coming with me to the club tonight" I sighed "I can't I have to write this rough draft" Niall groans "oh come on I bet you that's not even due until next week" I stayed silent because he wasn't wrong. Niall knows that I always tend to work on projects the day they're given until I finish it. "So.." "SO" he said punching my leg gently "you are coming out with me, Zayn's working so he can get us free drinks. It will be fun, it's karaoke night anyway and you love karaoke" I laughed softly and set my papers on the coffee table "fine okay I will come". "YES" Niall said "but first, do you have any food" I rolled my eyes "when do I not have food" "when I eat it all" he said going to my kitchen.

I looked in my closet for a shirt to change into. I grabbed a lavender sweater and tied a black bandana in my hair. My style is very wide but this is what I feel like today. I reached up on the shelf to grab my boots but I knocked a shoe box down and a bunch of papers fell out making me groan "nice Harry" I said to myself before bending down and grabbing them. I stopped and looked at one picture of me as a kid with another little boy. I find a lot of random pictures of me and this boy but a lot of them I either can't see his face or the picture is messed up. This picture looked like it was water damaged, I sighed and put all the pictures in the box and grabbed my boots.

We pulled up the bar around 9:00. "Oi there's my mates" Zayn said as Niall and I walked up to his part of the bar. Zayn was a bartender and DJ at this club. "I can't believe you got him to come out" Zayn said looking at Niall then me. "well it wasn't easy, he was bribed with free drinks" Zayn chuckled as I shrugged. Zayn set a couple shots and two beers in front of us. "well then I better get the drinks going for you two". I chuckled and Niall and I clanked our shots gently and tapped the counter before the strong liquid went down my throat. Shot. talk. Beer. talk. Shot. talk. Beer. talk. Shot. talk. Beer. This mini cycle went on for almost two hours with Niall and I. Needless to say. Niall and I were hammered.

I laughed as Niall danced like a cowboy, a very drunk cowboy might I add. There is something so funny about a drunk Irish dancing like a western man. "What's up everyone" Zayn's voice rang out over the club "Karaoke is starting in 20 minutes, I know a lot you are drinking and may not have understanding of time but that is midnight!" I laughed as Niall and I went back to goofing around and laughing. Zayn started playing a new song and the whole club was dancing. I looked up towards Zayn and saw him talking to some bloke on the other side of the DJ booth. He seemed interested in him, sometimes I forget Zayn's gay. After who knows how many more minutes I realized how badly I needed to go pee. "Karaoke in 5 minutes" Zayn announced and people screamed excitedly. Karaoke at this bar only lasted from midnight until 1a.m on Monday's... a.k.a today. I made my way to the bathroom after telling Niall where I was going.

I finally stumbled my way to the bathroom and went in the stall. When I was done I drunkenly stumbled to the sink and washed my hands then washed my face and dried them off. I looked in the mirror and laughed softly at myself, I can just tell I look fucked up. how long have I been here? I thought. I looked down at the sink then felt this really weird feeling over my body. My body felt almost... like I was missing something? I don't even know how to explain it. It's probably just the alcohol. I looked up at the mirror and my eyes widened and I blinked a couple times and the weird dark figure I thought I saw on the wall behind me disappeared. I shook my head, maybe I should go get some water. I made my way to the door and someone walked by me brushing my shoulder. I mumbled "Oh I'm sorry". I stopped for a second after I was on the other side of the door and touched my shoulder getting a weird feeling before shrugging it off and going over to the bar and getting a glass of water.

"Okay mate just lay down" Zayn said helping me into my bed. "I'm not even tired" I grumbled as he helped get my boots off "that's what Niall said and he passed out as soon as his head hit the couch". I chuckled "yeah Ni-Niall's so drunk" Zayn snorted "yes and so are you" he said covering me up. "So get that guy's number" I teased as I sat up against my headboard and wiggled my brows at him and made kissy faces. "Yes actually I did" I nodded "good job matey! matey! arg!" I said snorting and laughing at myself. "Harry lay down" Zayn said laughing at me.
