Locked (l.h)

Thirty

Woo chapter 30!

"I'm gonna sleep all day and party all night!" The music blasts through the taxis speakers, accompanied by the four boys singing.

"Loosen up a bit!" Michael shouts over the music. "Have a bit of fun, Jane!"

I hide myself in my cardigan. "We're not even at the party yet."

"The party starts in the car!" Yells Calum. "You've gotta have a bit of fun before you get there!"

"Dude, leave her alone." Luke says, wrapping an arm around my waist. "She's not a car party kinda girl."

"Is this the house?" The taxi drivers interrupts.

"Yeah." Ashton says, already out the car. "Thanks mate."

The grass and pathway leading up to Scott Fletcher's house were covered in bottles, trash and people. Lots and lots of people. People passed out on the stone path, people kissing on the lawn and people making their way inside.

"It's a bit busy." I say, clinging to Luke's arm.

He places a kiss on my cheek. "It's alright, it'll be fine inside."

He was wrong. Inside there was barely enough space to move, hundreds of people all over the house. Many of the guests were already drunk and bottles cluttered the carpet.

"Woo! It's my party boy!" A tall guy with slicked back dirty blonde hair yells, wrapping an arm around Michael's shoulders.

"Scotty!" Mikey greets him. "Good to see you!"

I have no clue who Scott Fletcher actually is, all I know is that Michael knew he was having a party tonight and somehow managed to get us all in. Feeling more uncomfortable by the second I grab Luke's hand, pulling him through the house and out the back door.

"You okay?" He asks as I take a seat on a wooden bench hidden at by the trees.

Shriveling back into my cardigan, I try to smile. "I was just feeling a bit weird in there."

"Come have a drink." He encourages. "It might make you feel better."

"No, I don't want one."

"You sure?" He asks.

"I'm just worried that I might end up as bad as last time." I reply.

"You'll be fine." He reassures, taking a seat next to me. "Just try not to drink too much, okay?"

"But I didn't mean to drink much last time and we all know what happened then."

"Is it really a bad thing to get drunk every once in a while? I'll keep an eye on you, if you try to do anything stupid I'll stop you. I promise."

"I brought beer!" Michael exclaims, bringing over three cans.

"It okay to drink, remember." Luke reassures me. I take a large gulp from the can, which ends up in me drinking the whole can in one go.

"Go Jane!" Michael laughs.

"Can you get me another?" I ask, wiping the remaining beer from my lips.

Luke holds out an arm to stop me moving. "You've changed your tune. Slow it down a little, Jane."

"Okay." I pout.

Out the corner of my eye I notice someone running across the yard. "Cannon ball!" They yell, jumping in the pool and sending water over everyone surrounding it.

Calum's head pops out of the water. "It so warm guys! You've gotta get in here!"

One look at the boys and we all run straight into the pool. The water soaks through our clothes and drips off our bodies, I realize I'm gonna have to wear my damp clothes for the rest of the night.
