Just Friends

ELEVEN:

"Jaden!" I screamed,running down the stairs and meeting the eyes of six shocked boys.

"What?!" He yelled back, obviously mocking me as he sat down his phone to give me his full attention.

"Would you please be kind enough to why in the world you did not inform me of the fact that you were releasing a song? Like, I knew you could sing, but you didn't even think to tell your best friend in the whole world you were coming out with music?"

Bryce laughed, " he didn't tell any of us, it just kind of happened."

Jaden shrugged, " I wanted it to be a surprise."

"We're throwing a celebratory party later!" Kio shouted, obviously excited.

"Wait, what?" Jaden looked at him meaning he didn't know anything about this part.

"It was supposed to be a surprise you idiot!" Griffin yelled, playfully punching kio in the arm before turning to Jaden and nodding.

"Anyways," Anthony started, "invite whoever you want, it's going to be the biggest party of the year!"

Oh boy, I can already tell that it's going to be one big mess. Literally

Drink after drink. I couldn't stop. My one weakness would be alcohol. You give me one cup full and the next thing I know I have basically downed the whole bottle.

"Hey!" I said, my drunken stage being very obvious, as I wrapped my arms around my brother who was talking to Dixie.

He laughed, "Oh Leah, you idiot. I thought I told you to keep an eye on her Dixie."

Dixie puts her hands up in defense, "Uhm, I was talking to you thank you very much."

"Whatever." He chuckled, turning back to me, "okay I think you've had plenty to drink sis."

"I got her." Someone came up behind me, grabbing my arm and pulling me away towards my group of friends. "Don't worry we saved you from him."

I looked up to see Bryce was the one who pulled me away and handed me another cup of alcohol, which I had immediately drank.

"My hero!" I joked groggily.

"Bryce, I think she's had plenty." I heard Avani say before she reached out and grabbed the cup out of my hand only to receive complaints from me. "The last time she was this drunk it ended with her almost falling off the balcony."

I laughed, remembering the time when I had first moved to the Sway House and we threw a party to celebrate. I had way too much to drink and somehow ended up dangling off one of the balconys.

Jaden had found me and managed to get me back on the ground of the balcony before anything serious happened. The sad part of it all was laughing the whole time and not thinking anything of it.

Speaking of Jaden, I hadn't seen him the whole party. I needed to find him because, well, it's not a party unless him and I are together.

I waved goodbye to my friends and began to walk through the huge crowd of people dancing in the living room. I walked outside towards the pool area to find even more people partying.

I'm pretty positive that this party was much bigger than we wanted it to be. Turns out, the people we had invited had invited people themselves, those people invited more people who in turn invited more people. It was chaotic.

I still hadn't found who I was looking for, though. I heard someone yell and then a giant splash came from the pool.

Luckily, I wasn't by the pool and only got a few water droplets on me.

"Hey." Someone said from behind me before I felt myself being dragged back into the house and up a flight of stairs.

There were less people on the second floor than the main floor. I felt myself being pulled up another flight of stairs and to a third floor where the only people there were the ones waiting to use the bathroom since the first and second floor bathrooms have lines of people outside them.

I still couldn't tell who the person was that I was with, but they felt familiar so I wasn't too worried.

The person opened a bedroom door and when we entered the room, I recognized it as Jaden and josh's room. I looked up to see the person looking down at me before connecting their lips with mine.

This sudden action took me by surprise. I pushed them away before backing up.

"What the fuck?" I asked, still trying to figure out what was going on.

"Sorry." He said, scratching the back of his head before going to leave the room.

For some reason, I raced towards the door and shut it before he could leave. "No, it's okay. I didn't mind."

He looked at me as if he was questioning if I was telling the truth or not. Before I knew it, his lips were back on mine and we fell onto one of the beds. Whose bed was it, I couldn't tell, but I didn't really care.

Will I regret it in the morning? Probably. Do I regret it now?

Not at all.
