By Your Side; Ksimon

Chapter Nineteen

Simon's POV

I felt déjà vu sitting on the couch, looking at my watch and it being 20:50, how did I get myself into this mess again.

I sat up off the couch, walking outside into the crisp, cool air, even though JJ wasn't here yet.

The cold nipped at my skin, I could feel myself shaking, and the goosebumps crawling up my back, but I sat on the steps anyways.

Outside was dark, the moon being the only thing illuminating the snow.

I could of drove myself there, but I felt better having JJ there, anyways if I got drunk again he could bring me home.

I rubbed my eyes with my hands, feeling how cold they were. It was below zero degrees.

I stared down at my feet, feeling a wave of anxiety crash over me, what was I thinking, I wasn't exactly sure of all the laws, but I defiantly knew that this was illegal, kids as young as 14 will be here, which includes Harry. Yet he's probably the biggest drinker out of all of us, competing with JJ that is.

JJ...he was tough, and strong, but also protective, and caring. He suddenly popped into my life, never did I expect this was what my last year would be like. The way he kissed me, the way his hands felt on my skin...it was a feeling I've never felt before.

A car pulls up into the driveway, and as I went to get up, JJ's door swings open and he runs to me, keeping his voice hush, but urgent, "Simon! What are you doing outside!"

He grabs onto me with strong arms, lifting me to my feet, making me realize how cold I was. My teeth were chattering and my skin was covered with goosebumps.

He brought me to the passenger side door, pretty much throwing me inside, then coming around to the other side.

I moaned slightly, sinking into the cushion as I felt the heat absorb inside of me, it was much warmer in here. "What were you even doing!?" He questions baffled, I really didn't have an answer for him.

I shrugged, not having an answer. He just shakes his head at me, driving off to his house.

We were there quickly, cars lined up along the street. We walked in, seeing a ton of people dancing and drinking, just having a good time. It really felt a lot like the last party. For what little I could remember.

He quickly leads me into a separate room, there I saw a bunch of my mates, Josh, Tobi, Harry, Vikk, Ethan, Emily, Freya, Callux, Cal, Caspar, and more.

Freya and Josh quickly rush up to us, "He said yes!" She giggled, showing the two of them holding hands.

JJ clapped Josh on the back, "Way to go Josh! Just make sure you don't use my bed, k?" He jokes, making Josh's face turn the brightest red I've ever seen.

Freya's face lit up too as Josh gave JJ daggers, but a small smile spread on his face as he took Freya away.

"It's about time." JJ grumbles to me, heading over to a small, little bar with a couple of drinks.

He offers me a cup, but I shake my head, I wasn't going to get drunk again.

It was a smaller room, of about twenty of us. People were still dancing and having fun, but the real party was defiantly out there.

"See? I told you this would be better then the last one." I rolled my eyes, but he defiantly was right, maybe I wouldn't have a terrible time.

The room was decorated with different Christmas bits, lights strung from the walls and a small tree in the corner.
