it was a blue neighborhood. words• 6,452
quite,
each house looked exactly like it's neighbors.
their blinds are drawn and their lights are off, it was serene.

and then there's the frat house right between all those beautiful houses. the lawn is patchy and there's furniture out on the lawn. there are led lights coming from inside along with heavy bass music that felt like it shook the van as they pulled up. Patrick got out first, sliding the van door open and letting everyone else out.

Richie stepped out of the van and looked up at the frat house. Henry claps his hand on his shoulder, "your about to become a man tonight, Tozier"

the others snicker and go inside. Richie stays back a moment, watching them. he hasn't talked to the other two boys yet but Patrick gives him a bad feeling. and Henry? Henry's just one of those guys that needs to look tough, he doubts he could do any real damage though.

the party inside is even louder. their stuffed inside the house like sardines in a can, no matter where you walked you had to slide past people and dodge others. they completely bypass the party and open a basement door. Henry holds the door open as Richie stands in the door way. he looks down into the basement, it's dark but he can smell why their going down there.

"Belch and i are hittin the kegs," Victor, the boy with almost white hair speaks up, "we'll meet you when your done." he gives belch a look and they quickly take off towards the kitchen. whatever it was they didn't want to stay for long.

Henry scoffs, "whatever, a good party always starts with a little weed." he starts down the stairs and Patrick and Richie follow.

it leads down to a small room, it's lit by a lamp sitting on a wooden crate. there's a couch and a coffee table, but that's about it. it looked kind of disgusting and Richie thinks Eddie would say their probably violating health codes. he'd be right too. they sit on the couch, next to two girls and a boy. Henry greets the boy, they seem to be good friends. the two girls just sat chatting to each other, one of them had long brown hair and dainty features, while the other dressed in boys clothes and looked like she wanted nothing to do with Henry. she scowled at Patrick and whispered to her friend.

A bong is pushed in front of Richies face and he looks over. Henry's holding it out to him as he blows a cloud of smoke into the air.

"it's got a little somethin in it," Henry smirks as Richie takes it and lights it

When Richies done taking his hit he looks up and everyone's looking at him. he blows out the smoke and coughs, "what's in it?"

Patrick shakes a pill bottle, "xanny"

Richie passes the bong and glares at Henry, "thanks for telling me asshole."

Henry barks out a laugh and puts his arm around Richie, "your gonna be a great addition to our group-"

"-woah. i didn't agree to anything—"

"—chill out Rich. there's not some weird entry trial, your just becoming less of a bitch"

the others laugh and Richie rolls his eyes, "what makes you think i'm a bitch?"
