Mae's POV

It's been 3 weeks since my dad died from his heart attack. The first week was the worst; Nick and I were still in Texas and most nights he would wake up to find me screaming on the bathroom floor. I was a mess. After his funeral me, Nick, and Maggie all went back to L.A. I knew that I couldn't stay in Dallas; all of the memories would make it too painful. I needed to get away from them. Ever since than I've been doing exactly what my dad wanted me to do: I've been living. For so long I had been living my life for other people. First my mom, then Maggie, then Tommy, and then it was my dad. For once in my life I was finally just living for myself. And it felt...refreshing.

"Let's go out tonight," Maggie said not bothering to move from her position. Brandon had an arm wrapped around her and their legs were tangled together. I smiled at them and I could feel Nick pull me closer into him.

"Like to a club?" I shifted so my head was resting on Nick's legs.

"Hey not all of us are 21 yet" Zion pouted from his spot on the floor.

"Just me and Mags then," I suggested a girls night out but both Brandon and Nick began to protest.

"Noooo baby you can't leave me," Brandon shoved his face into Maggie's neck.

I giggled and looked up to see Nick frowning, "Its just one night, Nick." I sat up to place a chaste kiss on his lips. He huffed but nevertheless thought some girl time with Maggie would be beneficial.

I squealed with excitement before jumping up and dragging Maggie to the bathroom to get ready.

"Shit, Mae, you actually think Nick is going to be okay with you wearing that to a club and him not being there?" Maggie raised her eyebrows at me.

I shrugged, "he's the one that decided to date a bad bitch such as myself."

I'll admit my dress did show off a bit much but, hey, if you got it flaunt it. It was a deep purple color with a slit all the way up my thigh and it showed quite a bit of cleavage. My back was exposed and overall the dress was tight fitting. I looked myself over in the mirror before applying a final layer of clear lip gloss. I grabbed my hand bag and made my way downstairs. The uber I ordered should be here any minute.

I was almost to the door when I heard Nick's voice, "fuck, Mae, there is no way you can go out in that." He pulled his bottom lip in between his teeth and eyed me up and down.

Wrapping my arms around his neck I said, "it's just one night babe. Don't worry."

"I always worry about you." Nick placed an innocent kiss on my neck before looking into my eyes, "I don't want anyone to take you away from me."

Maggie swooped in and grabbed my wrist pulling me towards the door, "uber's here." She shrugged at Nick and blew a kiss to Brandon. He caught it and placed his hand on his cheek. Barf.

"Get ready for a wild night bitch." I smirked at Maggie as she shut the door to the uber.

No turning back now.

7 shots in. Sweaty bodies everywhere. Music blasting through the speakers. My heart was pounding and I could feel the alcohol coursing through my veins.

Go Crazy by Chris Brown started blasting and I threw my head back downing another shot before making my way to the dance floor. I had lost Maggie about 10 minutes ago but I'll be damned if I wasn't going to dance to my favorite song.

Tell me if you with it cuz I'm with it babe

My hands waved around the air and I moved my body to the beat of the music.

I haven't heard from you in a minute babe

I caught the eye of someone on the opposite side of dance floor and my body became rigid. What the fuck is he doing here?

I turned my head to begin looking for Maggie. I felt my breathing increase a bit but I didn't know if that was the alcohol or how my body was reacting to seeing him again.

"Hello Mae." His voice was smooth but his eyes were ice.

"I was just leaving." He grabbed onto my wrist and I flinched.

"You don't have time to catch up with an old friend?" He smiled at me and I gagged. Again, not sure if that was the alcohol talking.

I crossed my arms over my chest, "we are not friends. I would be okay if I never had to see you again."

He chuckled at my response, "oh come now, Mae. You can't blame me for anything. It was all that pretty boy's fault. What's his name again?" He brought his finger to touch his lips as he was thinking.

"Oh, how could I forget. Nick's the name." He sneered at me and it took everything not to slap him for what would be the second time.

I gave him the finger, "fuck you, Tommy." I walked away as fast as my legs could carry me but it wasn't easy considering the fact that I was wearing heels and was under the influence.

Where the fuck are you, Maggie? I decided to search the bathrooms. Pushing the door open, I collided with another body.

"Hey! Watch it bitch I-Mae? Fuck I've been looking for you everywhere." Maggie slurred.

I tugged on her arm, "we need to go. Now."

"I haven't even had that many shots yet" she stuck her bottom lip out at me.

"Tommy is here."

Maggie seemed to sober up at what I had just said and we walked out of the club together.

Maggie held the door to the uber open for me, "why is he back?"

I didn't know the answer, but I planned on finding out.
