RILEYS POV

The bass was pounding and Wes and I were dancing together to the beat having the best time,

"DO YOU WANT SOMETHING TO DRINK?" Wes yelled over the loud music

"NO, WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY PUT IN IT...I DONT WANNA GET DRUNK" I laughed and we started dancing to the music once again.

"IM GONNA GO REQUEST OUR SONG!" Wes said and he made his way through the crowd to the DJ.

I continued to dance to the music and I was scanning the room looking for familiar faces when I caught eye contact with Luke and he gave me his evil smirk. That was it. I made my way through the crowd all the way to Luke,

"CAME BACK FOR MORE BABE?" He yelled over the noise

"I NEED TO TALK TO YOU" and I grabbed his arm and took him outside on the back deck

"What's up babe?"

"First of all, don't call me babe. Second of all, you need to stop playing mind games. I don't know how you managed to know I would be here but you did. And you purposely brought Hannah. Third and last of all, leave me the hell alone, I'm done being scared of you. I'm taking control of my life again." I said looking him in the eyes. He can't scare me anymore and he needs to know that, I used to live my carefree lifestyle and I've missed it so much. I didn't even realized I missed it until wes started to bring it back to me.

Luke stood there and starred at me for a while before he finally spoke,

"Where's wesley?"

"He's inside and I'm going to go enjoy the rest of the night with him and concentrate on my future without you" I said as I walked back inside and scanned the crowd for Wesley. I really hope he hasn't realized I was gone....the last thing I need it for him to know about luke and Hannah. I'm so done with their bull crap.

I finally found Wes talking to some boys I recognized from school and I made my way to them,

"Hey Riley!! How've you been!" Ryan said to me, he's one of the boys that play football with Wes.

"I've been great! To be honest, I didn't even think you knew my name" I said laughing and the boys started laughing along with us

"Wesley sure is a lucky guy" Jack said as he patted wesley on the back and we all had a conversation and laughing until the familiar chords of "life of the party" by Shawn Mendes came on and wes took my hand

"Sorry guys, we're hitting the dance floor....good seeing you guys again! See ya bruh!" Wes said as we walked away from the smiling boys.

We got to our favourite spot on the dance floor and Wesley placed his hands on my waist and I placed my arms around his neck and we swayed back and forth.

"You do know this song isn't for slow-dancing right?" I asked him as we continued to sway to the music

"I'm very aware" he said smiling and Shawn Mendes's voice filled the room, and as he sang, everyone sang along.

Wesley looked me in the eyes and began to sing to me,

"I love it when you just don't care,

I love it when you dance like there's nobody there,

So when it gets hard don't be afraid,

We don't care what them people say." He sung to me without breaking eye contact. I gazed into his beautiful Hazel eyes and he Gazed into my light brown eyes with a hint of Hazel, and we continued to sing to each other,

"I love it when you don't take no,

I love it when you do what you want cause you just said so,

Let them all go home we out late

We don't care what them people say.

We don't have to be ordinary,

Make your best mistakes,

Cause we don't have the time to be sorry, so baby be the life of the party

I'm telling you to take your shot,

It might be scary

Hearts are gonna break,

But we don't have the time to be sorry,

So baby be the life of the party.
