Getting a dress ruined at a party isn't a fun thing to happen. Having to remove the stain is a hassle and the stares that would come with it were not nice. In the end, it ruins your night.

Rachael went upstairs looking around for any sign of a bathroom. There were many doors and she was scared that she would walk into a room with people doing the deed. She kept walking down along the hallway trusting her instinct on which door would lead to the bathroom.
"You looking for something?" Rachael turned around to see Michael leaning by a door.
"The bathroom. I need to wash off this stain," she told him.
"Yeah, it's this way," he pointed backwards with his thumb. "I'll show you."Rachael followed the dirty-blonde haired boy to the bathroom. There were a few glances by the people who were lounging about in the hallway but Rachael dismissed it. They soon arrived at the bathroom and Michael held out the door for her.
"Here we are," he said.
"Try not to get lost on the way back," he teased and Rachael chuckled.
"Thank you. For helping me out not just this but also with that guy," Rachael said.
"No problem," Rachael noticed how beautiful his blue eyes were. She knew that he was handsome from what others have said but seeing him up close she understood the saying that his eyes were entrancing.
"You have pretty eyes," she told the boy who was now smirking.
"Are you flirting with me?" he teased the girl whose cheeks were now heating up.
"No. I'm sure you get that compliment a lot," she replied after being taken back a bit by what he said.
"I do," he said almost pridefully. "You're the girl from my English class aren't you?" he questioned the girl who had flashbacks to that day when she was figuring out how to get his attention.
"Yeah, I'm Rachael."
"Michael," he held out a hand and Rachael shook it.
"I need to clean my dress," she said once she realised that the stain wasn't going to clean itself. She stepped into the bathroom and went to close the door only for it to be stopped. She looked down to see what was stopping it and saw Michael's shoe blocking the door. She looked back up at him and was confused.
"Um, I need to close the door," she said a bit unsure on the situation.
"I know," she raised an eyebrow at him, "You just need to clean the stain of your dress right?" the girl nodded slowly. "So it's possible for me to come in."
"What. If this is your way of trying to seduce girls it ain't smooth," he laughed at the girl.
"No. I'm much more smooth than this," Rachael rolled her eyes and looked at him again.
"Then why?"
"There's someone I'm trying to hide from," he started. "So it will help me a lot if I could hide in here until you're done."
"Who from?" before he could answer someone yelled his name and he pushed Rachael inside and locked the door.
"Michelle," he told her and Rachael mouthed an 'oh' to him. She turned around and grabbed some tissue before lightly dabbing it on the stain hoping it would make it less dark and noticeable.
"I've never figured you to be a person who would do AP English. No offence. You always act like the laid back person in your group," Rachael admitted.
"There are many things you don't know about me," he said to her.
"Well yeah, we're not friends or anything but I'm sure some people were a bit surprised to see you stroll up in the class."
"That could change. Us not being friends," Rachael turned around and came face to face with Michael who had a hand on the sink. He stared into her hazel eyes and Rachael stared back into his ocean eyes.
"Michael! I know you're in there," Rachael recognised the shouting voice and Michael groaned. He stood back away from her. Michael didn't hesitate to open the door as he knew that Michelle wouldn't shut up if he didn't.
"Michelle," he awkwardly laughed whilst the blonde-haired girl glared at him.
"I was looking for you but every time I see you, you runoff," she then noticed Rachael who was standing behind Michael. "Gosh, I've told you to stop making out with girls in my bathroom," Rachael was quick to interject.
"We weren't making out," they both said at the same time. Michelle looked at Rachael again and realised who she was.
"Wait. You're that rude girl who bumped into me the other day," she pointed out. Rachael was about to speak up when someone interrupted.
"Michelle, someone threw up on your couch downstairs," Mason started but stopped when she noticed Rachael. "Rachael? You actually came."
"Rachael? You know her?" Michelle asked in disbelief and Mason nodded.
"Yeah, she's in my bio class," Rachael was starting to get uncomfortable she didn't expect to be surrounded by three Royals at once. She could only imagine if another were to come.
"What's going on here?" Michelle and Mason turned around to see Reuben Banks walking towards them. He arrived and glanced at Rachael and Michael before looking at the two girls. "Did you catch him making out with some girl again?" he asked them.
"Yes," Michelle replied.
"No," Michael and Rachael said at the same time as Michelle.
"Who are you anyway?" Michelle rudely asked Rachael.
"Rachael. Rachael La Bronx."
"You have a brother that graduated from the school, right?" Reuben looked towards her.
Her brother, Nathaniel La Bronx graduated from Damington two years ago and moved to college a few states away. She loved her brother but when he left she felt as though she wouldn't be under his shadow anymore. Everyone loved her brother. He was good at practically everything whilst Rachael was good at a few things.
"Yeah," her voice dropped a little when she replied. "Look I'd better get going," she walked away from the group down the hall and to the stairs where she sighed in relief.
'That was so suffocating.'
She walked down the stairs and made her way through the crowds of horny, intoxicated teens. She had enough of the party and wanted to go home where she could relax. Parties were really not her thing. Rachael much more preferred to stay at home and watch a good film.
She drove back home and parked her car in the driveway. Her parents would be happy that she's home earlier than they expected. She went inside and greeted her parents before going upstairs to her room. She changed out of her dress and into her pyjamas then went to do her night routine before cuddling up in bed to watch a film on Netflix. Though it was a short night a lot had happened to her at that party that she didn't expect.
