Teenage Dirtbag

Chapter 3

I take a deep breath as we walk through
the front door. This is the first party I have ever been to that involve lots of teenagers and alcohol and it is just how I imagined, teenagers grinding all over each other and drinking. The room is smokey from all the cigarettes and weed people are smoking which makes me cough.
"This was a bad idea Chris" I shout over the music. "You're telling me" She shouts back. I spot red hair over by the couch and see Michael, Rochelle, Ashton, Luke, Calum and a few other girls we don't know. This is the strangest feeling in the world, I never thought I'd give in to peer pressure and go to a party. I've been here 2 minutes and I can already say I am never going to a party again.
Rochelle spots us and jumps of the sofa, she's wearing a short tight red dress and high black heels. This is a totally new side of her I never knew existed. She pulls me in for a hug and I see that her eyes are glossy and there's a strong smell of alcohol on her. She's been drinking, oh wow. She hugs Christina and tells us to sit with them. I awkwardly stand while Christina takes the only free seat.
"Do you guys want a drink?" Rochelle asks. "I'm good thank you" I politely smile. "What is there" Christina replies. She's not going to drink, surely not. "Here try this" Rochelle hands Christina her drink and she takes a sip, her hand goes straight to her mouth and she coughs. "Woah what is that" everyone laughs but me. "It's vodka and energy drink, but mostly vodka" Rochelle laughs. "It's good, I want one of those, you should try it Sie" Is she kidding. "Oh I'm good thank you, I'm driving anyway" I'm so shocked at her. She knows I said not to drink. Someone hands Christina a cup and she takes a sip and smiles. "This feels good" Her eyes are bright. "I know right, I've wanted to invite you guys for a long time but I always thought you'd say no, it's nice to let your hair down once in a while, right" Rochelle downs her drink then looks at Michael. She smiles and he leans in. I immediately turn away and look for something else, I spot Ashton out of the corner of my eye looking at me, his expression is unreadable and making me uncomfortable. "I'm going to go and get a glass of water" I stand up. "The kitchen is just through there and then on your right" Michael nod towards an arch way. "Thank you" As I walk to the kitchen i see a couple almost naked making out against a wall and a guy passes out already. I grab a clean cup and get water from the tap, downing the cup I quickly turn on my heels and bump straight into Ashton. "Watch it will you" He grunts. "Sorry" I go to walk past him but he grabs my wrist. "Can you let go please" I try and free my wrist. "Why would you come here if you're just gonna be boring?" Boring? No I'm just to mature for all this. "I'm not boring, I'm mature, I don't want to be that teenager that drinks and ruins her education" He laughs and shakes his head. "That doesn't mean you can't have a little bit of fun and have a drink with your friends on the weekend" Instead of answering I walk back to the front room to find them playing truth or dare. Great. I sit down on the floor and watch is shock as they all do crazy things. I see Ashton sit back down. "Ash you're next, truth or dare?" Luke shouts. "Dare obviously" Luke thinks for a minute before telling Ashton to make out with a girl named Kasey. She had long black hair and she's tiny. She has way to much make up on and just looks fake. He happily agrees and stands up. They make out for at least a minute and it's gross. He sits down and I can't help the disgusted look on my face. "Christina your turn" Ashton smirks. She downs her cup and then says truth. "Are you a virgin?" Her cheeks blush and she squeaks a yes. All the girls but Rochelle and I laugh and I can't help but feel bad for her. Her face falls and she stand up and walks out of the room. "You're a fucking dick" Luke looks pissed at Ashton before he follows her. "What it was just a fucking question" He laughs and looks proud of himself and leans back in his chair, I move to sit in Christina's seat. Rochelle looks a little shocked and unsure what to do as well as me. We just sit and talk a bit more when Rochelle and michael say they are going up stairs for a little bit.
I go back to the kitchen to get more water when I see the time, it's nearly 12, time has flown by. I should go and find Christina. I walk up stairs and see how big this house actually is, there's another floor above this, I open one door and the room is empty, the next door is the bathroom. Why did she have to disappear. I open another door and see her laying on a bed with Luke. Fully clothed thank god. "Hey Chris we should go, it's late" She looks at me then at Luke. "Can we stay a little bit longer?" She begs. "Fine, I'll be back up in half an hour, be ready" I walk back to the bathroom but the door is locked. I decide to wait seeing as the water I've been drinking is having an effect.
I wait for a good 5 minutes before the lock clicks and the door opens, out comes Kasey wiping her mouth and Ashton with a satisfied look. Are you kidding me. I look at them gross while Ashton smirks and stands at the door. No way am I going in there. I head back down to the kitchen. I see a vodka bottle and the energy drink on the side. Maybe one cup. Am I really thinking about this. It wouldn't hurt and maybe it might help you through this tough half hour. You need to let your hair down and be free. Stop trying to be your parents the voice in my head tells me. You know what, fine. I grab a cup and pour some vodka a cup, a girl in the kitchen tells me I'm not doing it right and makes it for me. I take a sip and the liquid burns my mouth and throat, I cough just like Christina did. "You will get used to it" She laughs and walks away. I walk back to the sofa and sit and drink my drink. About 20 minutes passes before I decide to have another, I pour the exact same amounts the girl did and down it. 2 more drinks later the music seems the be taking over my body. I'm in between the dancing teenagers copying their dance moves seeing as I haven't done this before. My vision is slighty blury and I feel amazing. I have never felt better. This must be why they do this all the time. I feel like all my stress and worries have gone away and it's just me and the music. I quickly go and get another drink and go back to dancing.
I see Christina come over clapping her hands at the fact I'm drinking, she dances with me. Luke appears behind and and holds her hips as she slightly pushes her bum into him. I may be slightly drunk but I don't like that. I try and focus on the music again before I feel hands go around my waist and someone try and pull me back into them. My drink falls to the floor and I try to get away from them. I shout stop but they don't , I feel there hands getting lower and I try and get away again. I scream stop again but they don't. I desperately try and remove there hands from my body but the are to strong. I'm drunk and things are making me more emotional than normal. This doesn't feel right. Just as I'm about to shout to tell them to get of me there hands are ripped of me, quickly turning around I see the creep on the ground with Ashton on top of him punching him.

I stand there shocked watching Ashton beat this guy. What just happened? Ashton stands up and shouts some curse words and at the guy before looking at me. He gives me a half smile before walking out to the kitchen. I walk after him. I have to thank him. I see him walk to the garden so I follow. He sparks up a cigarette and looks at me, he's sweaty and his hair is falling perfectly over his forehead, "Uh thanks, for what you did" I speak lowly. "Don't mention it" he tokes his cigarette and holds it for a while before blowing it out. "Why did you do it?" I ask. "What? Stop him touching you, believe it or not I don't like a guy taking advantage of a girl who is under the influence of alcohol" Oh. "What made you decide to have drinks anyway?" He throws he's cigarette butt on the floor. "I don't know, I just decided to let my hair down and not be boring" I laugh. He smiles at me and walks away.
