(Tom's POV)
Lucy had invited me to this party tonight, I completely forgot til she had texted me. I checked the time and quickly jumped in the shower. As I rinsed my hair I thought about how Lucy had gripped my hair and the good times we had... even though she had a boyfriend. She must clearly be unhappy if she's going behind his back. I slipped out the shower and wrapped a towel around my waist. I had to choose something to wear...hmm, I chose a tight white v-neck t-shirt, my leather jacket, dark blue jeans and a black belt. I waxed my hair into a smooth quiff and put on some aftershave. I checked my phone. It was 8pm.
"When are you coming? x" she had text me, pressing me to come now. I decided to leave and locked my apartment door.

I arrived at Downtown LA Club at 8:30pm. The air was filled with a thick warmth already, about 40 people were mingling around the dance floor which meant the night had just started. The music that was playing was general chart hits, starting up the fire for the raging hits to be playing later on. The lights were red and blue, dim and the room was gloomy. Then I saw Lucy in a tight white fitted mini skirt and matching v-neck crop top, she had 4 inch thick heels which made her nearly my height. She ran up as much as she could and hugged me close.
"Heyyy! I'm so glad you could make it" she smiled and looked around her. Her eyes paused on a guy who was at the bar, talking to another guy.
Then she introduced me to her friend, Kiana, who was smiling politely and waved. Lucy dragged me over to the guy who was at the bar.
"Daniel babe, this is my old friend Tom" she spoke for me and had her hand on my shoulder. The guy's eyes looked me up and down cautiously and then broke into a smile.
"Sup mate, I'm Lucy's partner" I felt my face freeze and my teeth clenched. I managed a smile and shook his hand firmly.

(Luke's POV)
I had arrived at the party sort of not in the mood. Me and Kiana had broken up and to be honest, even though I had made the deed, I felt sad. I knew I had broken her heart and she would be here tonight but I decided to steer clear of Lucy and the girls; then i wouldn't clash with Kiana. I looked through the gloom and saw Jai in the light by the DJ box.
"Jye, what's up" I patted him on the shoulder and he hugged me.
"Luke, what tunes do you want?" he asked motioning to the DJ. I shrugged my shoulders helplessly and fiddled with my lipring. I headed over to the bar and ordered a beer. The music was still playing and young women in groups huddled past me in mini dresses and heels and gave me a look. I smiled and took a sip of my beer. As the club began to fill up I noticed Kiana staring at me from across the room with Lucy and Chelsey. She looked tearful and she was wearing a floral bodycon dress with sandal heels, her hair was curled and she looked really beautiful. I glanced down and massaged my brow. I really could do with not being here tonight but everyone else was coming so I had to.
Suddenly I felt a hand plant onto my shoulder. It was James.
"Maaateee what's wrong" James cheered and stood by the bar with me. I looked up with a sullen look in my eyes.
"Me and Kiana broke up" I made a disappointed smile. His face dropped and his hand clamped across his face.
"Luke... oh my god... i'm so sorry" He embraced me and patted my back firmly.
"I'll be fine..." I trailed off as I noticed out the corner of my eye a bunch of girls who had arrived at the club. They must have been about 19 years old and one of them caught my eye. She was short and had dirty blonde hair, she was cute and bubbly and she scanned the room frantically, tapping her heels on the floor lightly like hopping on air. Her eyeshadow sparkled in the party lights.
"Luke, mate, you in there?" I shook my head, dazed for a few moments.
"Sorry... look be right back okay?" I wondered through groups of people and disappeared from the bar.

(Candice's POV)
We had arrived at the already busy club at 8:45pm. Me, Poppy, Blair and Alyssa were dressed smoking as fuck. I wore my red, velvet mini dress with 4 inch black chunky heels accessorized with a leather black clutch. Blair looked amazing, her dirty blonde hair was half pulled up, she wore a sparkly high-waisted mini skirt and a black chiffon crop top with silver stilletos and red lipstick. Poppy had her long blonde hair straightened sleek and wore a midi dress with colours deep red and black. Her heels were velvet and chunky. Her smile radiated across her face. Alyssa looked sassy, her skirt was pleated and shortish, she wore a low-scoop long sleeved crop top and a jewelled necklace that accentuated her neck and she wore a daring lipstick.
We all looked at eachother and grinned.
"Where's Skip?" Alyssa urged, scanning around carefully identifying people.
"Where's LUKE" Blair screeched over the music, her eyes bulging out of her head in excitement. As we made our way towards the sides of the dancefloor I spotted the back of a guy that was wearing a tie-dye tank top and jeans.
My stomach dropped as I went up to him and tapped him on the shoulder, he was peering contently into his texts screen. He jumped suddenly as he swung around. His face broke into a huge smile as he recognized me, his jaw suddenly dropping, speechless.
"Y-y-ahhaha-you look stunning" he spluttered, embracing me in a hug, his hands gripping my lower back firmly. I melted inside and smiled. His deep brown eyes glinted in the lights of the party and he dragged me onto the dancefloor. I tensed up, looking for my friends. Looking for his girlfriend.
