Anna and Rob walked through the house meeting different people, they were all pretty drunk and probably wouldn't even remember Anna being there.
"I'm going to go talk to some of my old friends okay?" Rob's eyes searched her face, she shrugged.
"Go ahead." Rob grinned and kissed her on the mouth and walked away into the crowd she grabbed her cup tightly in her cup, she didn't really like vodka, she had just taken it to be nice. Suddenly Ben appeared beside her.
"Not much of a vodka person, huh?" He said looking at her full cup.
"No, not really sorry." He took the cup and gave it to a random person walking past them.
"Me neither. So, your dating Robby, huh?"
"Yes." She grinned. He laughed and grinned back at her. He was very handsome, with his ashy blonde hair and brown eyes.
"Good for him, but bad for me." Ben looked right at her.
"And why is that?"
"It stinks not having a girlfriend worth having." Anna felt her smile falter.
"Let me go get you a drink." Ben said as he walked away from her. Anna felt herself watching him go with a kind of despair. As she felt she might crumble inside, Ben returned with water. She laughed and took it.
"Why thank you, kind gentleman." She swished the water in her mouth as she drank it.
"All part of the job." She hit him with her shoulder and he stumbled back against someone who pushed him forward. Anna laughed until she saw he was stumbling back towards her. Ben smacked into her and the water spewed all over her. Ben muttered his apologies and glared at the guy who pushed him while he helped her back up. Anna was laughing to hard to even understand what was going on. He was brushing off the water on her shoulders when she grabbed his hand.
"Ben, it's ok." She said through laughs.
"God, I hope so. Or that will just ruin my chances."
"What do you mean?" She asked raising her eyebrows. She felt butterflies fly in stomach.
"You know, of being friends with you?" Ben smiled at her.
"Oh," She said and excused herself to find the bathroom.
