It is 7:15 and Michael hasn't arrived at my house yet. I wasn't worried since he said he would be here by 7:30 but I would like to see him before he ditches me for the night in a strangers house.

I get ready and put the finishing touches on my hair and hear my doorbell I run down stairs and trip. Of course I have to have a window by the door so when I open it michael is laughing.

"Its not funny" I pout giggling a bit.

"It kind of is" he finishes laughung and I invite him in. "This is a nice house!" He says looking around.

"Thanks, I guess my mom is a big lawyer lady so she bought this house for us." I say looking at the pictures on the walls.

"Oh.. okay well its very nice" he smiles. I smile at him.

"Do you want something, or should we be going?" I ask looking at his smiling face.

"We should go I told Luke and the guys we would be there soon." He says looking at his phone.

I smile at him. "Luke? Is this the guy who is throwing the party?" I ask walking out of the door to Michaels car with him.

"Yeah Luke Hemmings, he's the lead singer of the band." He says getting in the car.

"Oh the tall guy" I say giggling. He nods and drives away.

We arrive at the party and its already packed. 'This Luke kid must be very popular' I think to myself. I get out of the car and wait for Michael, he grabs my hand. I am shocked for a second then he says "so you don't lose me" he smirks.

I nod and walk into the house with him, we enter what is the living room and there is Luke standing with a red solo cup in his hand and his arm wrapped around a girl. Luke spots Michael and yells "THE CLIFFACONDA HAS ARRIVED!" everyone laughs. I look at Michael weird and he squeezes my hand.

"Yes I have, Luke this is Carter. Carter this is Luke and his girlfriend Raven." I smile at them. Raven shakes my hand.

"Nice to meet you guys" I say looking at Michael.

Luke then pulls Michael away from me and I stand there with Raven.

"Hey you're very pretty" she says trying to spark up a conversation.

I smile. "Thank you, you are too" I say looking at Michael and Luke they are laughing.

~Michael's POV~

I am introducing Carter to Luke and Raven then Luke pulls me aside and the first thing he says "are you and Carter hooking up?" I glare at him.

"No she just got out of a break up and Im not that type of guy Hemmings!" I say sternly.

"I'm just asking, 'cuz you guys look pretty close to me" I chuckle.

"No its not like that, but I do like her. Fuck please don't tell her that!" I hit my forehead with my palm. Luke laughs at me, then I laugh with him and we walk back to the girls.

I then yell "LET THE PARTY BEGIN!" and there is a lot of cheering and music playing. I pull Carter aside with me and we walk over to the couch. "So do you want to sit here and be awesome with me? Or do you want to go over there and dance while I creepily watch?" I say laughing through the second half of the sentence.

She laughs with me. "I will be awesome with you." I smile and sit down with her next to me.

---1 hour later---

Me and Carter have talked all night. She is very interesting.

I see Luke walking towards us with a bottle of rum in his hand. "Do you guys want to play Never Have I Ever?" He asks smiling. I smile and look at Carter, she nods so we get up and sit in the circle of people.

And the game begins.
