The sweat was dripping, the music was playing and drunk kids was surrounded around me cheering for me to take another shot.

How did I end up here? Standing on a table with people surrounding me, telling me to take the last shot. How the fuck did I, Jennifer Short end up in this situation?

Before I could even take the next shot I was lifted down from the table and dragged out from the crowd and into what looked like the kitchen in this house.

I could barely see anything. My legs hurt, my head hurt and my eyes were just blurry. How much have I had to drink?

"Well look who it is, Jennifer Short" the husky voiced guy said. At this point I couldn't even see who it was, but something was awfully familiar.

"I'm gonna throw up" was the only thing I could say before turning around an throwing up in the sink right behind me.

I could feel my hair getting pulled back and someone rubbing my back to comfort me.

"Follow me" he said as he took my hand and led me to a bathroom upstairs.

When the lights turned on I could finally see who it was.

"Ethan?" I said with a question before throwing up a little more in the toilet I was now bent over.

He pulled my hair back again as I saw him searching through the drawers for something. What I did not know and honestly my head was hurting too much to even think about it at this point.

"Why are you doing this?" I said, wiping my mouth with the toilet paper. I could not look any worse than this.

"Jen what were you thinking?" he said with a soft voice as he pulled my hair back in to a ponytail.

I guess he was looking for a hair tie.

"You don't go to parties and you defiantly don't drink" he said as he sat down beside me.

Why was he acting like this? I literally haven't talked to him since the end of freshman year. He just ditched me and became the school's fuckboy. Not caring about anyone.

"I wanted to have fun with my friend" I said in a guilty voice trying to make the sentences that came out of my mouth as normal as possible.

"There's a lot of other ways to have fun, you don't need to drink and you defiantly don't have to wear that, I mean damn I'm surprised no one has dragged you into a bedroom yet" he said and licked his lips as he was looking me up and down.

I gave him a dirty look and huffed as I tried standing up, failing and falling back down, hitting my elbow on the toilet seat.

"Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that" he said as he straightened himself up and taking my arm, making sure I was okay.

"But you do look hot" he said as he looked at my elbow

"Thanks I guess" I laughed a little.

Wow I would never guess myself to be in a bathroom, drunk off my ass, talking to Ethan Dolan as he was looking out for me. Wow.

-----------------------------------------

"Okay, I'm taking you home" Ethan said as he helped me up on my feet.

We had been sitting in the bathroom talking for like an hour about nonsense. Probably won't even remember any of this last night.

"What no. Ethan you've been drinking, you are NOT taking me home" I almost screamed at him as I tried to losen my grip from him.

"No I haven't" he said with confidence as he looked at me, not knowing what I was talking about.

"Ethan I saw you on the porch when I got here. You had a beer in your hand and you always drink at parties" I stated the facts to him as I sat down on the toilet seat, still not being able to stand by myself.

"First of all, no I don't always drink and second, it was an alcohol free beer, so chill" he laughed as he held his hand out for me to take it.

When I thought more about it, he did not seem drunk at all. But that might also be because I was head down the toilet drunk and my lack of judgement was believing he did not drink.

I decided to believe him and took his hand.

He led me down the stairs and out the front door.

"Wait" I said as we both came to a stop. 

"Hm?" he looked at me, waiting for me to find the right words.

"I have to find Mag" I told him as I turned around, trying to look through the crowds for her.

"Mag? as in Maggie?" he asked me with a raised eyebrow.

I nodded my drunk head as a 'yes'.

"Okay, let's get you in the car first and then I will go look for her, okay?" he said. I knew he was talking to me like a baby, but I let it slip. I know how many times I have done that myself with Maggie.

Ethan walked me to his black BMW and helped me get in the passenger seat.

"Okay here's a water bottle. I want you to finish that before I come back okay?" he looked at me with the most gorgeous eyes. They were sparkling like they used to when I knew him. I couldn't stop staring.

"You're so beautiful" I said as I looked directly into his eyes.

"Okayyy, Imma go find Maggie, drink that" he pointed at the water bottle as he shut the door and went back inside the party.

Even though I was drunk, that hurt like hell. I've had a crush on this guy since second grade and he just turned me down. Ouch.

At least I'm too drunk to remember this tomorrow.
