"So what did Beau say last night?" Cody asked me as we set out a bunch of drinks for my party tonight, it was probably two o'clock in the afternoon and people would be arriving at six.

"Not much, just the usual 'I'm sorry' 'please forgive me' bullshit," I sighed.

I was craving him right now. Not the sex, but the affection that I felt towards him, I craved the way he winked at me with his beautiful emerald eyes, the way he would wrap his arms around me from behind, the way he smelled, it was almost as if he was some sort of stress killing drug of mine that I was addicted to, that I couldn't go a day without taking, but I had to fight my addiction now since we weren't speaking. What a shame.

"Put some music on," I breathed as I walked up the stairs to get anything valuable to dump in the basement, just in case nothing got broken, saving me from being grounded for a month. My mum had left for Canberra about an hour before we started to set up, she had no idea there would be over two hundred drunken people in the house, all probably off their faces on weed and other drugs that I do not take.

Asking Alexandria began to blast and a grin was plastered on my face as I listened to my beloved Danny Worsnop scream the lyrics to A Prophecy through my speakers.

How stubborn are the scars when they won't fade away?

Or just a gentle reminder that now are better days?

We'll be home soon so dry your eyes,

You'll be okay,

Oh my God!

The water is rising,

It's rising!

You just have. To believe in me,

Failing that I'll ride this storm alone.

A few hours had passed and everything was ready to go, the drinks were out, not many snacks were laid out considering it was a drinking party, the DJ booth was set up in the living room, Cody had some experience with DJing, not much but it would do for a few hours.

"Come on then, let's get ready," I grinned as I dragged Cody upstairs. I already had my outfit planned out, plain black Bodycon tank dress with a pair of black stilettos. I know it's all black but it was the only colour I actually looked good in.

Cody, on the other hand, wore a red Bardot dress along with black pumps, it really showed off her figure and her brown hair looked nice with the red dress.

We both kept our hair simple, I wore mine up in a high ponytail and Cody wore hers down, flowing over her shoulders.

My makeup was rather dark around my eyes as it always is, and I had a dark shade of purple on my lips, I was all set to go.

Time passed quickly and there was already about a hundred people crammed into my house. I danced with a few guys, taking my mind off of Beau, he was probably here alongside the rest of the guys, but I didn't care.

I had downed about eight shots in a matter of half an hour and I was beginning to feel rather queasy, but I couldn't be arsed going to the toilet to freshen up so I stayed in the living room, dancing to the heavy dubstep songs that Cody was playing.

I suddenly felt a pair of hands snaking around my waist and a head rest on my shoulder. I turned round to see the dreaded face I hoped I wouldn't see tonight, but now there was no getting away from him.

"What do you want Beau?" I yelled over the loud music, my words coming out as slurs.

"I wanna talk," he shouted back, he was sober, I didn't smell any form of alcohol in his breath as it tickled my face.

"Make it quick," I sighed and pulled him out of the house, there were people all around my front garden, absolutely off there faces which I found hilarious.

"I'm sorry Charlie, I know you won't forgive me for having sex with someone else, and I can imagine how you feel," he said, his eyes full of hope and sadness, making me feel a little guilty.

"No you can't imagine how I feel Beau, you don't feel mutual... Every minute I have spent away from you, my heart physically aches. I know it's cliche but fuck me, it's hard being away from you, that's all I'm saying. You broke my heart to pieces, I hope you understand that."

I began to turn to walk back into the crowd when he grabbed my wrist and swung me back around, clashing his lips with mine and tangling his fingers in my hair. There it was, the feeling I had been craving for a few days was what I was experiencing at that moment, and I'm not going to lie to you, it felt so right. My lips moved with his before he pulled back slightly and gazed into my eyes, his hot breathe tickling my face.

"You're amazing Charlie, and going through this break up with Naomi isn't easy, but over these past few weeks you've made me feel as if nothing else matters in the world, and I'm not ready to give that up. I'm not ready to create something beautiful then destroy it, just think about that."

His words made me smile like crazy as he turned and reentered the house, leaving me stood outside, absolutely gobsmacked by what Beau had just said.

Well played Mr Brooks, well played.

ITS JUST A FILLER IM SORRY:)

Love youuuu
