    I finish setting up the account and put my phone back into my pocket. I was now sitting on the couch where I'll soon be towered by drunk teens in minutes, but the far music playing was nice.

So Carter is Jake's brother, huh? I wonder if I'll be seeing more of him. (What do you guys think? ;))

   I sigh looking at my watch, 10:59. Waaaay past my bed time.

Within a minute, the room is filled with the smell of beer and a faint smell of mary jane.

The purple light on the stage brightens and it illuminates the room. Jake comes out looking as if he  was sober. Good acting Jake.

"How's everyone doing tonight?!" He yells revealing his drunken state. I wonder if he gets paid for this.

"So this is an old song and I never performed this."

His eyes go over the crowd until they find mine. "To anyone." I look away quickly.

We looked at each other to long to be 'just friends'.

The music began with a quick beat. I only looked at him when he wasn't looking at me, and even if he wasn't, I could tell he was singing only at me.

"But when the su-u-u-un starts to set
And when the ski-i-i-ies take your breath
And I need to sense you, right there
You just wave goodbye, wave goodbye

Well I can't make you love me, but I'll try
Until my dying breath, you know I'll try
I can't make you feel it, if it's not there
Only the Lord knows why it's not there"

By the end of the show, he was sweating. Probably sweating away the alcohol he drank. He departed into the crowd getting back pats from guys and girls 'trying' to get hugs from him as well as touching him.

He was never looking they're way when they did.

People start to head back up to the party carrying Jake along with them. Before he disappeared from sight , someone behind him looks right at me.

Dean.

He smriks before throwing an arm around Jake's shoulder. Well that doesn't seem good. I start to walk after him before a hand grips my shoulder turning me around.

Bre.

"Hey Em! Been awhile?" I hesitate before saying anything turning to look in the direction Jake and Dean went off to.

"Hey Bre. Um, does Dean do drugs? Werid question I know, but its sorta serious." I didn't know what was up with her. She had that face where it seemed she knew something.

"No idea, but I know what he does do." Her arms were now crossed and her right eye brow was intentionally arched.

I rolled my eyes and mimicked her actions. Sighing,"What are you implying, Bre? You know what. Never mind, I have to go."

Throwing her self in front of me, her eyes started watering. What is wrong with her?

"Do you like taking girl's boyfriends?! Your not even that pretty." So now I knew something was going on.

"Your a really good actress Bre, but don t you think everything that happened is because of you? You're the one who broke up with Jake. You're the one who started dating Dean, and you're the one who was naive enough to think Dean wouldn't cheat on you."

She ajar-ed her mouth as if she was going to say something, but nothing came out her mouth.

"Look Bre, I have no idea why you broke up with Jake because he is way better than Dean. I don't know if its about the sex, bu-"

"Did you have sex with Jake?" She asked not having watery eyes anymore. Like I said, good actor.

"No Bre." Why would I tell her my business. It looked like she gave out a sigh of relief.

"Jake is a good guy, and you broke his heart." I didn't know if it was a glimpse of the light, but I think a tear just rolled down her cheek and her eyebrows furrowed. She probably noticed that I noticed because she quickly wiped the tear and returned her eyebrows to give off a bitch face.

"You really need to check yourself, Jake use to be different. You act like you know him, but you don't. You haven't even see the worst and you won't ever see it because he only ever showed that side to me. I stuck with him for 6 years and its not my fault if I don't love him anymore." She let out a breath as if she just was able to breath after being drowned.

There was silence when I realized, Dean was probably still with Jake.

"Bre. Seriously, if you known Jake for more than 6 years then you known Dean for more than 6 years. Does Dean do drugs?" She silently nodded.

I rush back up towards the party leaving Bre behind.

Asking around, I finally find that they went into a room upstairs. I walked in on a few people making out and doing..other things, but that's not the point.

I find the furthest room on the right. A corner room. I didn't smell anything unusual, but marijuana isn't the only drug in the world.

Knocking on the door I wait. I wasn't going to make another mistake of walking in on someone doing the nasty.

Nobody answered, I double checked putting my ear on the door. Nothing. I wiggled the doorknob and it was locked. Great. This was the last room and it was probably the kid's parent's room. Where could Satan have possible taken Jake??

I sighed and headed back toward the stairs. A boy with long wavy hair with baggy pants and a baseball hat on sat in my way.

I rolled my eyes at his apparel and rolled my eyes even more when he started talking to me.

"Hey don't you know Jake? I seen you with him sometimess." He slurred his words. Jake knows this bum?

"A little. What are you to him?" I mean really, I couldn't see him as a friend. He leaned in close to my ear even though nobody was around. His hair almost touched my face and he smelt like...chicken? "I'm his dealer."

Great, If I couldn't get to Jake to stop doing drugs, how am I suppose to talk to this guy. I could kill him. But Jake would probably have a back up dealer or whatever you call those.

"Okay..well. Uhm, nice meeting you and all." I turned to get away from the conversation as quickly as possible, but that didn't happen.

"Were you just with Jake?" Oh my lord. Guess I'm not the only one looking for him.

"No. I couldn't find him."

"Ohhhhh, so he didn't tell you about the room?" He gave a smirk and laughed to himself.

I faced towards him more and furrowed my eyebrows, "What room?"

He gestured his head toward the room I was just trying to open. There was a piece of tape on the door, but I didn't anything of it before. "This is the room." He took the tape of the door and pulled a key out. Unlocking it my eyes went straight to the body on the ground.

Wait I know him...Oh my god.
