as we step inside the house, niall stops me, before i can even close the door, his hand hitting my chest.

"okay, look, just stay in the kitchen and the living room, don't talk to anyone, and we'll leave soon," he speaks as if he's had this planned out the whole time.

i already have so many questions.

"why can't i go upstairs?"

niall sighs.

"well, there's uhh.. a lot of people have sex up there, like in the hallway and stuff, it's just gross," he replies, but i can tell something's off.

i want to ask niall if he's going to have sex, but he's already pushing me into the kitchen and by the time i turn around, he's running up the stairs.

i sigh and start walking around the kitchen.

there's a huge speaker in the sink, blaring the lyrics to an upbeat song.

sometimes all I think about is you

late nights in the middle of june

heat waves been faking me out

can't make you happier now.

i stand next to the sink for a while, listening to the song.

it's nice, but definitely not one of my favourites.

i start tapping my foot on the floor, but i'm not sure why.

i guess this is what parties do to people.

as i go to take a chrisp from a bowl on the counter next to the sink, i hear the front door open and more voices.

shit, i can't look like a complete loser, standing next to a sink alone.

quickly, i walk towards a hallway past the counter.

i have no idea where it leads to, but it's better than looking like a nervous idiot.

when i step into the hallway, i see three white doors, one of them in front of me, and the other two on both sides of the wall.

i can hear more voices coming from the kitchen, so i open the door on the right.

it flings open, and i see a guy sitting on a bed, an xbox controller in his hands.

he looks up and sets the controller on the bed.

"hi," he says with a little wave.

"oh god i'm sorry i just-" i try to say, but he interrupts me.

"no, it's okay, you can come in if you want, i-i even have an extra controller!"

he replies, enthusiastically.

well, i guess he actually wants me to stay, i think to myself as i walk into the room and gently close the door behind me.

i stop when i get to his bed, unsure if he wants me to sit on it.

he nods his head as if he can read my mind.

i sit down on the bed, next to the boy.

he looks about my age, maybe a year younger or older, i can't tell.

he's got curly brown hair and ocean blue eyes, very sharp yet soft ocean blue eyes.

he looks at me with a smile and hands me a black controller.

"im playing planet coaster, want to join me?"

his voice is so soft and quiet, but he sounds familiar, like i've heard him before.
