Friday night parties. Something every student looks forward to. This week, it was at Dobby's house. He happens to be very close friends with Harvey so I’m able to get information out of Dobby about Harvey
This means that I know he likes me back. And Harvey knows I like him too. So we’re both stuck in this place where we both know we have feelings for each other but niether one of us are doing anything about it. Frustrating.
This party I decided, is the night I’m gonna push him to ask me out.

“Hey could you come early to the party and bring booze?” Beth said while putting stuff away in our lockers.
“Why do I have to bring it? And what makes you think I could get it we’re underage.” I reminded her. She rolled her eyes.
“Are you kidding me?” She looked me up and down and raised her eyebrow.
“You have a very..... mature body. I can’t pull it off.” She shrugged. My cheeks reddened but I laughed to cover it up.
“Thanks. But I can’t. I have to bring my brother home and get ready.”
“Oh come on tell your brother to walk home and it doesn’t take that long to get ready you can get some on your way.” She begged. I closed my locker and turned to Beth.
“Ooh I forgot to mention that I don’t wanna.” I shrugged.
“Ugh fine. I’ll ask someone else.” With that she walked away.
A few lockers down I noticed someone starting at me. I smiled and walked over. It was Harvey. He was smirking with his hands stuffed in his jacket pockets, leaning against the wall.
“Hey.” I said, copying his stance.
“Hey there gorgeous.” I laughed.
“You going to the party Mills?” He looked down and laughed, then dramatically looked back up at me to say his cheesy line.
“Only if you’re going babe.” I rolled my eyes, a big smile on my face. Then I smirked, getting an idea.
I moved closer to him and skipped my fingers up his chest.
“I’m going and,” I let my hand lay flat on his chest while I stood on my toes to whisper in his ear. “I better see you there cause I’m feeling a little needy, and if you’re not there I might need someone else to come satisfy my needs..” I pulled back and his jaw was open in awe. I traced his jawline with my fingers and started walking away. I looked back behind my shoulder to see him biting his lip, watching me walk away. I smirked to myself and made sure to sway my hips before exiting the building.

The house was packed with all the kids at our school, along with some other neighborhood school kids of course.
Like a typical high school party it was loud, sweaty, and reeked of booze. Turns out Beth was able to pull off looking older.
As soon as I walked in I noticed her picking cans and red solo cups off the ground frantically. She always was obsessed with cleaning.
“Beth? What are you doing? Stop cleaning up!” Her head snapped towards me.
“I can’t stop. It’s a curse. Have fun while I clean myself into my grave.” She laughed dramatically. I laughed along with her. Love that girl.
I mingled around with everyone for awhile till I noticed someone I had been looking for all night, sitting on the couch. Scanning the crowd. Harvey. Our eyes met and he smiled. I waved with my fingers and began to walk over to him but was stopped by one of the football players Luca. As I was blocked by this very tall, handsome and devastatingly stupid human being, I saw Harvey's smile crumble, giving me an idea.
“Look who it is! It’s Liv! I’ve been looking for you all night sweets.” Ugh.
“Hey baby hey. You wanna dance with me?” I batted my eyelashes. Luca grabbed ahold of my waist and pulled me into him.
“Let’s do this.” he said, very seriously.
We started dancing and I turned to look over to see Harvey watching us intently with his eyebrows furrowed. Luca caught me looking.
“What’s his deal?” He asked. I hummed.
“Mm I don’t know…” I made direct eye contact with Harvey, then spun around to grind my ass into Luca and slowly slide down to the floor. Harvey leaned his elbows on his knees and was biting into his knuckles, looking like he was about to punch someone. I turned back around to Luca and pulled his head down towards mine where our lips were only centimeters apart. Just a breath away.
That’s when I felt a hand on my arm, pulling me away from Luca. Then Harvey’s hand connected to Luca’s face and he was on the floor, groaning in pain. Harvey pulled me away from the crowd into a private room. He slammed the door, anger radiating off him.
“Harvey-“
“Shut up.” He growled, lust in his eyes. At that I smiled and he roughly grabbed my waist and slammed me against the wall. He bit and sucked on my neck, leaving bruises and marks in his way. I snaked my arms around his neck and on his back, then used my leg to wrap around his waist and pull him closer into me.
I let my eyes close and enjoy his touch. His thumbs rubbing circles on my exposed hip, his lips slowly kissing closer and closer to where I wanted him.
He brought his face up to mine and paused. I opened my eyes and saw him looking at me. His cockiness was long gone, and his eyes were soft. His grip on me loosened but didn’t go away. He hesitated and locked his eyes with mine. I nodded.
“It’s okay. I want this. You want this.” He nodded in response and leaned his forehead on mine. He moved his lips close to me and let them linger there before lightly pressing them to my lips. And that’s when I was set on fire. My lips tingled and every part of me that was touching him burning with passion, set a fire through me. I smiled, overcome with happiness and he pulled away, smiling too.
“What?” He was smiling all goofy and happy like.
“You just make me so happy.” I said, cupping his cheek. He led me over to the bed in the room and we laid down. I wasn’t worried about what was going to happen here. I wasn’t worried about him trying to get my pants off, because I trusted him. And i knew he trusted me. So we lay there in each other’s arms, whispering sweet nothings to each other for the rest of the night…
