"what time is it?" Emma asked, drinking some water.

I rummaged through my bag and pulled out my phone.

"it's 1:32. when do we get off?" I set my phone on my lap.

"I think we get off at 730, when the sun goes down."

6 more hours of brutal sun and I can go home and sink into my warm cloud for a bed.

Emma plugs her phone up to our mini speakers and we listen to music for the next couple of hours.

around 7PM, people from other houses started leaving and it was getting pretty empty. everybody that was at house 8 for the party were all inside, partying and having a good time.

Emma and I grabbed our phones and walked down to the water to take pictures of the sun going down. The sunset tonight was like a great joy and relaxation after my long day and the colors were giving me so much comfort and I felt so carefree.

we took our tumblr worthy pictures, a couple of selfies, and chatted about our day. a couple minutes later we walk back to our chairs and get our things ready to go. just when we are about to leave, two guys walk up to us.

"hey Emma and Kate." it was Cameron's voice.

"hey Cameron, who's that with you?" Emma said immediatly.

"oh," he looked at the guy next to him. "this is my friend Nash."

"hey Nash." Emma and I both said in unison

"hey." Nash flashed a white smile.

for a couple of minutes we all stood in beach silence; the only thing you could hear were the waves crashing in, then being sucked back out into the ocean andthe faint music from their beach house.

"do you guys want to come hang out with us at the party?" Cameron said, breaking the silence.

"you know, I would totally love to! I could really use that." I said, smiling.

"same here!" Emma chirped.

we followed the boys into the beach house and all I can smell is alcohol. Cameron open's the back porch door and suprisingly, the music inside was blasting through the roof. I was not expecting that, considering how quiet it was outside the house. there were college kids dancing everywhere.

I look behind me and notice a drunk college dude offering Emma a drink.

"she's good, thank you though." I said, grabbing the drink and setting it on a nearby counter.

"Kate, I can take care of myself." Emma said sounding snooty.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed her hand so we could catch up to Cameron and Nash.

for a few hours, Nash, Emma, Cameron, and Isat in a big circle and hung out with another group of guys and a couple of girls. most of them were drunk and Nash was getting a little tipsy.

I check my phone.

"is everything okay?" I felt a presence hanging over me.

I looked up and saw Cameron, looking worried.

"yes, everything is fine!" I quickly locked my phone and stood up. "where's your bathroom?"

"uhh," he still looked worried. "down that hall and it will be your first door on the right."

"thank you." I smiled and headed for the bathroom.

I glanced at the girl in the big mirror that was surrounded with white seashells and noticed she could use a little work. I turned my very messy ponytail into a tamed long side braid and applied some more mascara. I looked myself over one more time and realised I don't have on any pants. I only have on Nathan's tee and my swim suit.

I wonder if Cameron has any sweats or shorts I can borrow.

I walk back to where Cameron is and greet him with a smile. "do you possibly have any sweatpants or any kind of bottoms I can borrow?" I asked looking down at my bare legs.

Cameron also just realised I didn't have pants on and he had a very cute smirk on his face. "yes, I do have some pants you can borrow. stay here." he chuckled and walked down the hallway.
