My eyes fluttered open to the beaming sunlight that peered through the small gap in my curtains opposite my bed, I sat up rubbing my eyes softly and reached for my phone wondering what the time was, i sighed rolling my eyes when I read "6:50" on my lit screen making my eyes sting a little. I peered over to the other side of the room searching silently for Emma in the heap of a duvet on the bed not that far across from mine. I sat still for a while before jumping a little at the sound of two alarms going off. Mine and Emma's. I turned mine off and pushed my body round to the left of my bed leaving my feet aimlessly hanging off of the bed. Emma sat up and seemed to copy the actions I had previously done when waking up. "I'm going for a shower" she quietly spoke rubbing her eyes after unplugging her phone and grabbing a top and jeans from her draw. I stretched out as I stood from the bed and found a small black hair tie to which I then slung my damp hair into a low ponytail. I looked through my clothes in my walldrobe for a while before hooking out a pink dress and hung it over my arm whilst heading for the door. As I walked down the hall I was greeted by a few "good mornings" to which I greeted back before hoping into a warm shower. When I returned to the room Emma was dressed and applying some makeup something I was yet to do, it was weird because I was always the first one ready however she seemed to be in a rush. "Did you want me to wait for you today?" She questioned turning her eyes away from the mirror for a short while. "No it's ok, you go I won't be long" I said pushing a smile on my face. "I'll see you in class? Don't be late!" She joked, Emma had been late a number of times due to going to party's the night before classes etc. Me and Emma had been friends for nearly 5 years now, there was me, her, Christy, and Hannah. Moving to uni with was just something we had always thought we would do, we were now half way through first year and it was getting more stressful by the day. I let my hair down brushing through the nots and leaving it hanging down over my shoulders before I applied a small amount of makeup. I grabbed my bag and walked down the hall to my first lecture of the day. I still can't believe it is even legal to be up this early on a Friday for school. I sat myself down in between Emma and Christy whilst Hannah was no where to be seen. I didn't have time to question it or even think about it as I was late and my professor had already started giving me a look upon me arriving late. The lecture didn't last too long, but it was now 9:00am and we walked the halls down towards the grass area out back for a while. "Where's Hannah ? I forgot to ask" I questioned. "She said something about a party tonight? She was going to get us invited" Christy smiled pulling out her headphones from her bag. Just as if it was on que Hannah approached us from the double doors opposite and sat beside me. "Tonight" She smirked. I was a little confused when that's all she said until Emma finally replied "you spoke to him then" I was oblivious to who they were talking about, Hannah could see my confused look which she then whispered "it's Harry's party" I made a silent "oh" sound before grabbing my phone out not wanting to be apart of the party conversation. Harry's party's never ended well and I wasn't even up for one I wanted to sleep all weekend and not have to worry about getting out of Harry's party. We sat for a while on the grass before attending our other lessons of the day and all made our way back to mine and Emma's dorm, Hannah and Christy bought their clothes and they all changed, I hoped they were too distracted by the music they had blaring that they wouldn't notice me not moving from my bed with my headphones in. However that was the case. Hannah came and slumped herself down onto my bed her sequin dress tickled my leg as she nudged me to take a headphone out, I did so only to hear all of them begging me to come. "It won't be the same without you not there it's Friday come on" Emma begged. "It's been a long week we all need to let off steam" Christy laughed they all now were sitting on my bed closely waiting impatiently for an answer. "I really do-" before I could finish Hannah pulled my hands up pushing me over to my walldrobe and pointing at my clothes. "Pick something or we will take you like this" she said pointing down to my leggings and low hung pink top I was wearing. "Fine" I said harshly before taking a black piece of fabric between my hands and slipping into it.
we arrived to the party only to find sweaty body's pressed against each other dancing aimlessly to the music. We found a small seat at the back of the hall Harry had obviously rented. "I'm going to get a drink" I huffed standing and tugging my dress down slightly as it rose. "See that's more like it" Christy encouraged. I squeezed my way through the body's dancing and eventually found a table containing god knows how many alcoholic drinks before picking up a red cup and staring at them all. "Need some help" and deep voice echoed for a while as someone slightly brushed my lower back with their hand. I flinched slightly not knowing who it was until my eyes were met with green ones. Harry. "I'm good thanks, just seeing what's good" I lied, I wasn't really a party person or someone who drank however I didn't want him knowing this for some reason' me and my friends didn't even know him that well yet now that his intimidating height hovered over me I felt ridiculous and contemplated taking anything from the table, my eyes darted back to his before grabbing a bottle of vodka from the table and pouring it into my red cup which I still gripped in my left hand, my eyes stayed focused on his and his never left me as I put the bottle back on the table and began drinking. I was taken aback from the taste and my right hand replaced where the cup had just been. I coughed a little. I looked up to find harry still towering over me. "Can I help you" I harshly spoke before taking another gulp of the drink down. A small smirk appeared on his face as a kept drinking not taking my eyes off of his, I had drunk four whole cups down and finally slammed my cup down on the table before bending down slighting with my hands resting on my knees. His weight shifted down to copy my actions, I felt his curls rest on the inside of my neck near my ear when I heard him lowly whisper. "You should of taken that a little slower" I shot up instantly, my head colliding with his, "what's it to you" I shrugged going to reach for the bottle again,I was stopped by one of Harry's hand grabbing my hand away and bringing it up to his mouth before kissing my knuckles. "Get off" I spat wacking my hand away from his face, "maybe leave some for everyone else yeah?" he joked crossing his arms. I turned my body away from him and disappeared into the crowd not looking back. I found my friends again where I had left them. "Thought you was getting drinks" they questioned looking down to my empty hands. "I - I went to the toilet instead sorry" I lied. "It's fine I'll go" Christy laughed standing and moving into the crowd of people, I sat back down thinking about what had just taken place and why, I didn't know harry and he didn't know me. Why was I even here. "I think I'm going to go" I said hastily standing up and leaving before anyone could convince me otherwise. I just wanted my bed, the vodka that I had drunk made my head feel fuzzy as I reached the door, I stopped for what seemed like a second my right hand holding all of my body weight as it rested on the door frame. I fell down to the floor sitting for a while before attempting to get up, I was thankful for a helping hand by a large male who was exiting the hall. I began trying to walk before two hands caught me quick enough before I fell back again assuming it was the same male I turned to say thank you however was taken aback by Harry holding my whole body weight in his strong arms. "Leave me" I demanded too weak to say anything else. "Let me help you" he insisted, my drunk self taking full advantage of Harry's strong grip on my waist however it was soon removed as one arm hooked under my legs the other rested on my back harry carrying me bridal style out of the dark humid hall. "You live in the dorms right?" He questioned. I slowly noded unable to process any words, my headed found a comfortable spot on Harry's chest as he walked through the dorm halls, why did he leave his own party to help me? "Which floor?" I heard a small voice whisper but unable to answer I stayed quiet for some reason thinking he would be able to find it. He stopped walking and his feet abruptly stopped outside a dorm. He lent down to my forehead "If you don't tell me you'll just have to come back to mine" I didn't look up but I knew he had a smirk plastered on his face. I stayed quiet still unable to process any words, attempting to lift my head to let him know this he slowly nodded and turned around walking back out into the cold air and down the road, I watched as we turned down a small road that was a dead end, my face shot up my head still pounding but the thought of going down a dark unknown street with harry suddenly scared me. "Shhh" he whispered pulling my head back to his chest, I looked up briefly before he spoke again. "Im taking you to mine" he reassured me. I fell asleep to Harry's soft voice as he continued walked down the road, something about his warm embrace made me feel safe and made me forget about what had happened previously at the party.
