Beautiful People (Song Story)

Based of "Beautiful People" by Ed Sheeran Ft. Khalid
---------------------------------------------
Lily got invited to a party, which was strange. Not only that, but this party was for the most popular girl in school, Rosetta’s, 17th birthday. Lily was extremely puzzled.
“Hey, Josh, there’s a party going on tomorrow. I don’t want to seem rude not going, soooo…”
“We can go,” her boyfriend said, “We’ve got nothing to do otherwise.”
“But we’ll lose quality time just watching a movie or playing games or something. I honestly never saw the point in parties, they just suck. Nothing but alcohol, dirty stuff, and pointless conversation”
“Let’s try it out, just this once. I’ve never been to a large scale party before. Maybe this time will be different.”
“It’s never different…” Lily mumbled, but didn’t argue further.

The day of the party arrived. Not knowing how fancy or casual this was going to be, Lily settled with a pink blouse and some jeans. She pulled her brown hair up into a ponytail, and didn’t bother putting makeup around her blue eyes. She grabbed her glasses as she left the room. Josh put on a green Polo and some jeans. He didn't bother doing anything with his messy blonde hair.
“You look nice,” Josh said, his green eyes checking out his girlfriend’s outfit.
“Thanks. I almost never dress like this, so savor this moment,” Lily said.

They drove to the house where the party was. The minute they stepped out, they could hear music booming.
I’m surprised no one’s filed a noise complaint yet, Lily thought.
“Are you sure we have to do this?” Lily asked.
“Come on, Lily. Just try it out, it may be different,” Josh said, opening the door.

This wasn’t different at all. It was just like every party Lily had seen. Almost everyone was holding plastic cups, most likely filled with beer. There were people dancing, making out in the corners, laughing drunkenly, and having slurred conversations.
“Weeeeelcome! Beer?” Rosetta said tipsily.
“We’re good, thanks,” Lily said.
Lily and Josh walked around the house and sat on an empty couch. Josh got up and left for a moment, and came back with cups of water.
“We’ll only stay for a little bit, like 30 minutes. I see what you mean now, this party is sucky, but I don’t want to be rude, even if Rosetta’s drunk as hell.”

They fiddled with their phones for a while. At one point, Josh got up to get more water. While he was gone, another boy walked up to Lily.
“Hey, beautiful, why don’t you ditch that couch and let’s find a room,” he slurred.
“Sorry, but I have a boyfriend, go away please,” Lily said.
“Well, that’s what cheating is, baby.”
“Get away from me you drunken idiot,” Lily said, getting up to look for Josh.

While that happened, Josh went to find more water.
“Hello there gorgeous,” said a girl as he walked by. She grabbed his arm before he could walk away. “How about we ditch this party and go to your place,” she said with a tipsy smile.
Josh flung the girl’s arm off him and went to get back to Lily. They needed to get out of here before more drunken people come up.

Josh saw Lily in the middle of the dancers, looking around, probably for him. He grabbed her hand and started walking towards the door.
“This party sucks, let’s go before some drunk people try to get our numbers,” Josh said.
As they made their way towards the door, guys and girls alike turned their heads.
“Oooooo, who’s that hot guy. Can in get your number?”
“Hey hot stuff, come here.”
They ignored all the comments and left the house.

Lily stretched out. They had just finished watching The Lion King.
“That was a good movie, even though we’ve watched so many times,” Josh said, yawning.
“Yeah, it was indeed. Let’s agree to just chill at home on the weekends.”
“I agree, no more parties, I just need you and a relaxing night, that’s all I need to satisfy myself.”
Lily laughed a bit, and kissed the top of his head. “I agree, Josh, I agree.”

Expect a lot of these stories based of songs.

A bit about my music taste: My main genres are pop and k-pop. K-pop-wise, my favorite group is BTS, followed by TXT. My bias is Yoongi, and my wrecker is eVeRyoNE ElsE! I like some songs from other groups, such as Itzy (Icy and others), Twice (Breakthrough, Fancy, Yes or Yes, and others), BlackPink (Boombayah, Kill This Love, and others), and more. Pop-wise, I like basically anything on the radio. Some of my favorite artist are 5 Seconds of Summer, One Direction (rip), Daya, Halsey, The Chainsmokers, I could go on and on.

Question: What are you favorite artists and genres?
