Teach Me How To Love *on hold*

Chapter 17

Mia's pov

I noticed that the party has even been taken outside as the doors that lead to the fields were open. Leo guided Esmey and me to the Dancefloor. The teachers are pretty fucked up so whatever happens tonight won't even be in their memory tomorrow. We'll definitely get into trouble but do we care? Probably not. It's our last year after all. I turned to see Xavier just standing there. I made my way over to him and grabbed his arm dragged him with me towards Esmey and Leo. He put all his weight on his feet so I couldn't pull him.

"What are you doing?" He laughed. I dropped his arm and gave him a look

"It's a party, not a funeral. Lighten up."I said folding my arms.

"I will lighten up after you have a drink with me" he smirked. Damn it. That smirk does things to me.

"Deal" I said as we then made our way to what looks like a makeshift bar. Thank the lord we won't have to survive on stuff like soda and punch for the rest of the night. I ordered 4 double shots of vodka.

"Did I mention you look good tonight?" He smiled.

"Yes you did. You don't look bad yourself bats." I laughed. "Where are your goons tonight?" I asked since I couldn't see his guards anywhere.

"They're here somewhere. I think. I haven't seen them yet though."

"You're better off without them for tonight. I can't imagine how it is having people follow you and be up your ass 24/7. I wouldn't survive" I laughed

"I'm used to it." He shrugged. We clinked our glasses as the taste of the familiar burn travelled down our throats. I jumped off the stool ready to dance.

"You coming with?" I asked. He shook his head in response. I downed the rest of my vodka before heading to the Dancefloor. I found Esmey who for once wasn't with Leo and we immediately started dancing. The Dancefloor was now packed as my body moved to the music. Party Mia and normal Mia is like Hannah Montana and normal Miley. I haven't been to a party this good in ages. So tonight I plan to go all out despite saying I didn't feel like coming at all. It is after all my last year at this school. Why not make the best of it? My phone started vibrating in my bra.

"I'll be back." I told Esmey as I quickly made my way outside the front of the school by the parking lot as I pulled it out. My caller ID read 'mum' wow what great timing.

"Hello mum?" I said

"Mia?" Aww it was Ethan.

"Oh Hi Ethan! How are you?" A smile suddenly appearing on my face. I don't really notice how much how miss him until I actually see him. Ugh now I miss him.

"I'm good. Where are you and when are you coming to see me?"

"I'm at a school party and I promise I'll visit you tomorrow. How are you using mum's phone little man?"

"Mummy's talking and acting funny so she locked herself in her room so I took her phone from the kitchen." He explained. Oh great, she's fucken drunk.

"And dad?" I asked getting worried now.

"Daddy's here watching TV. He knows I'm talking to you and says hi. He's also ignoring me none of them care about me anymore Mia" I could hear the sadness in his voice.

"No no don't say that Ethan. They will always care. You see big people also get sad but they don't cry like small people. You'll see by tomorrow they'll be okay." I tried to assure him in a way that he'll understand. I talked on the phone with Ethan for another 15 minutes before we exchanged "I love you" and hanging up. I made my way back inside to see Xavier now sitting with a scowl on his face.
