When the clock showed 7.55 pm I started opening the window. Luckily our house only had one floor so I could easily escape through my window. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time. I was wearing a dress that was maybe a little to short and heels that were maybe a little to high. I could hear my parents watching tv in the living room so for now I was safe.
I grabbed my coat and quietly opened the window. I jumped out and closed it as quietly as I could. I hurried down the street and rounded the corner. In his truck sat Archie waiting for me. I could swear I saw a smile on his face when he saw me. I slowly ran to his car and got inside.
"Thank you for picking me up"
"No problem"
He started driving to the party. Cheryl didn't live that far away, so it didn't take long. When we got there we got out of the car and immediately a bunch of guys ran to Archie. I recognized them all from school and they all used to hang out with him. I felt awkward standing there so I went inside to look for Betty. I couldn't see her anywhere, so I sat down on a couch and texted her asking where she was.
Soon Cheryl, Archie, Archie's gang and some girls sat down on the couches next to me. And of course Archie had to sit down next to me. His leg, what I assumed was accidently, touched mine and I got goose bumps.
"Are you cold?" Archie asked.
I looked over at Archie and shook my head. He looked down at my bare leg where you could clearly see the goose bumps, no wonder he thought I was cold. I started rubbing my leg just to get them away and I could see Archie look at me a little weird, so I tried to look the other way.
"Listen people, let's play some 'never have I ever'" Cheryl said.
I was not feeling like playing a drinking game with a bunch of, already, drunk people. I stood up and was just about to leave when someone grabbed my arm.
"Where do you think you're going?" Archie said.
"Away from here"
"Come on, play for only a few minutes. It'll be fine"
I looked around and basically every girl that sat there stared at me with jealousy in their eyes.
And that was the only reason I sat back down next to Archie. He handed me a cup that smelled like a million different kinds of drinks.
"What is this?" I asked Archie.
"Not sure, but just drink and get drunk"
"Okay let's start" Cheryl said, bursting our little bubble "never have I ever, slept with anyone in this room" she continued, and took a sip from her drink.
So did a few more guys, a bunch of girls and, of course, Archie. I didn't take a sip, which made the other girls glad. I mean, I hadn't slept with Archie so now he was all theirs, at least in their minds.
"Never have I ever gotten so drunk I've blacked out" a guy, I wasn't sure who he was, said.
Almost everyone except like two took a sip, including me. It wasn't something I was proud of, but it had definitely happened.
"My turn" one of the girls said, smiling a little too long at Archie "never have I ever had feelings for anyone in this room"
I felt my cheeks go red. Luckily it was dark so no one could probably see it. Like all the girls, except myself and Cheryl, took a sip. And from the corner of my eye I saw Archie take a sip which caused all the girls to start to whisper. I felt like I was in a bad, and cheesy, romantic comedy. I saw Archie pick up his phone and soon my own buzzed.
