princess

party girl

I had been at Jordan's for about a week and a half and was properly getting settled in. I'd met Maddy, Jordan's girlfriend, on Tuesday and we all went out for pancakes. I sat between Vinnie and Jaden and they sat opposite us. I hated sitting next to Vinnie, not because I didn't like him, but because I really liked him and was so awkward around him. After the breakfast I went home and almost cried because of how cringey I acted. It was now Friday, and Jordan was throwing a party in the evening. He invited all the famous tiktokers- there were like 200 people coming. It was probably gonna be crowded, even though the house was so large. I took a shower and put on a black dress and a white cardigan. I put on some makeup and checked myself in the mirror. I looked cute.

I heard a bunch of people coming in downstairs, so I decided to join the others. I walked down the stairs and since the lounge and kitchen were already so crowded not many people noticed me come down. Thank god. I walked into the kitchen to find Jordan chatting to a girl who was sitting on a countertop.

'Hey Jord- where's he beer?' I asked.

'Damn. You drink Mimi?'

'Yeah I'm 17 not 12 dude.' I rolled my eyes.

'On the table in the lounge there's a bunch. Watch out tonight please- tiktokers can be gross,' he said pointing to the other room.

'k thanks.'

'Who's that?' I heard the girl say accusingly as I left. I laughed to myself. I found the table with the alcohol and grabbed a Bud. I chugged about half of it before moving into a crowd of people to introduce myself. They were all super nice! A guy and a girl introduced themselves as Sienna and Jack, I commented on how cute they were together, and they were very grateful. After a few more beers I felt myself getting tipsy and my self control leaving the room. I grabbed a bottle of vodka out of some guys hand and drank it straight from the bottle.

'Woah there sweetie,' he said.

'Shhhhh' I slurred, pressing my finger to his lips as he smiled at me. All of a sudden, my favourite dance song came. on.

'Oh my god I love this. song!!' I squealed. 'Let's dance!' I said pulling him over to the crowd of people by the pool table.

It was later in the night and I was getting bored of talking to random guys. I spotted a girl in a pair of ripped jeans and a really tight top. Her boobs were practically falling out her top. She would be perfect for a quick fck. I know it sounded douchey, but it was always consensual and the girls always knew it wasn't gonna turn into anything more. I walked up to her and grabbed her elbow gently.

'Hey, you having fun tonight?' I asked with a smooth smirk.

'Nah not really- I'm not drunk enough,' she giggled.

'So, what are you into?' I asked, hoping the conversation would flow.

'Uhhh not much really haha,' she giggled again.

Shit. This was gonna be a long night, I thought. We talked for a bit; she was sweet but such a boring girl. Like, she didn't have any interests, at least to my knowledge, and she was awful at holding a conversation. About ten minutes into our little chat, I heard one of my favourite dance songs come on. I wanted to go dance so badly, but I didn't wanna leave the girl I was talking to mid-way through our conversation. Until I heard a bunch of guys chanting 'strip' at some girl on a pool table. At first, I rolled my eyes, thinking it was harmless. Then I looked over and saw Mimi standing on the table, swaying her hips to the music. Her cardigan was at her feet and she was slowly pulling down the straps to her dress. Shit. I thought.

'Hang on a sec,' I said to the girl. I looked to see if Jordan was around, but I couldn't see him anywhere.

'Ugh I'm so sorry sweetie,' I said to the girl, 'I've gotta look after one of my friends tonight,' I apologised while giving her a quick peck on the cheek.

'See you around Vinnie.' She said with a smile.

I ran straight over to Mimi, pushing through the people in the crowd.

'Amelia, what are you doing?' I said sternly.

'I'm just having fun!' She said with a pout, wobbling around on her shaky legs. She looked way too innocent to get this drunk. Someone was bound to take advantage of her if I didn't help.

'Come on. I think you had enough to drink, princess.'

Just as she was about to pull her dress down, I grabbed her by the knees and swung her over my shoulder. With this, I earned boos from the crowd of guys surrounding the pool table.

'You suck man.' Some dude whined.

'Shit bro- she's not a spectacle for you to gawk at.' I said pushing through the crowd and up the stairs. She was squirming on my shoulder and moaning something about me being a party- pooper. I placed my hand firmly on her back as I trudged up the stairs. Why did this damn house have to be so big. I could hear her still mumbling behind me as I opened the door to her room. Immediately we were flooded by cool air, calming me down. I flopped her onto the bed and lifted a sheet over her. I switched off the lamp and shut the curtains all while she was saying something to herself quietly. Once I was done, I switched off the big light and started to leave the room. Until I heard soft sobs coming from the bed. I stopped in my tracks and gently turned back around to face her.

'Hey what's up- are you ok?' I asked quietly.

'Yeah. I'm fine. Don't worry,' she said dismissively, wiping away the tears.

'I mean clearly you're not. You don't have to talk about it, but do you want a hug?' I asked, secretly hoping she would say yes.

She nodded her head and held her arms open. I felt a small flutter in my stomach as I walked over to her and picked her up into a hug. Her legs wrapped around my hips and we spun around. We sat down on the bed with her in my arms and she held on tightly as she began to cry. I could feel her small fingers wrap around my waist and she pushed her head gently under my chin. I reached up and started to stroke her soft curly hair and held her hand with my spare one. I rubbed the palm of her hand for what felt like only seconds until she fell asleep in my arms.
