(4.21.17) I Won't Tell - M, 2.0k [Sm]

[The party is at full swing, and with Steven out of Carly's mind, she can relax with her friends and new acquaintances. However, Carly finds herself alone with information that would shatter relationships. Information that must be kept hidden. A crossover]

"Hey, cool song!"

"Thanks," she smiled before stepping forward, only to be lured back into the conversation.

"You're from iCarly, right?" the man asked casually, "Get rid of that dick from before?"

"Uh..." she nodded, pushing her hair back as her face contorted into a cringe. She never really had enjoyed crude language. "Yeah, we got rid of that, er, jerk." The blonde's head bobbed to the beat as he drank from his drink once again, grimacing.

After the cup was thrown to the nearest trash can, though missing by a good foot, he started again. "So, Carly..."

"Yep," she muttered, shifting her feet uncomfortably.

"Where's that other hot chick?"

"Sam?"

"No, that other one..."

"Uh," Carly frowned, biting her lip to remember her name. 'God you just met her Carly!' she mentally kicked herself. "You mean Tori?" After he gave a nod, she merely shrugged, "I -uh, I don't know." A few hollers caught the two's attention off to the side, a couple of other boys jogging through the buzzing crowd.

"Dude!" a brunette barked with a wide grin, "You should have seen this dude chug this whole bottle!"

"Time?" the blonde grinned excitedly.

"Just under one minute!" the other laughed, slapping the blonde's back, "Told you and you didn't even see it!" He stepped back to make room for passing girls before he gaze a side glance at Carly before halting. "Hey... You're Carly! You know, from iCarly?"

"Uh, yeah- Hey, have you seen my friends?"

"The ones you sang with earlier?" he asked curiously, tipping his head to the side.

"Mhmm," she pursed her lips, "We kind of split up a little while ago and..." she eyed him before determining that he wasn't more than tipsy, kind of, "Well, I can't hang around a bunch of drunks."

"I understand," he nodded, "I haven't seen any of them either now that you mention it... You guys did a cool performance though!"

"Thanks," she mumbled a bit irritably, "But have you seen Sam?" His head shakes. "Freddie?"

"Nah."

"Spencer?"

"Nope... Though I did see him in the Jacuzzi," the brunette added before his eyes flickered around the room. "Actually, now I can't find Damian," he murmured quietly to himself, Carly just able to catch his comment. Her head swiveled around the room, not a blonde jock to be found anywhere.

"Well, you better go find him then," she suggested before turning around, "And you already did..." Her dark eyes rolled before she stumbled throughout the crowd, muttering unheard and interupted apologies as she went. The lights flashed to a distorted beat with the bass pulsing through the speakers, all somewhat too loud to her opinion. Not that she wouldn't go to a party like this, no, but this party was just more like a frat party than anything. Something like a puppy getting too out of hand.

The teen grumbled as she finally pushed past the swarm of people bobbing their heads to the music, striding right to the wall. Heaving a heavy sigh, she turned her gaze momentarily before dropping it to the floor. Her eyes, however, widened as she looked back. "Jade right?" she asked politely to the thespian.
