Five strangers serenade her with a song, but a certain curly haired boy catches her eye. People warn her about his way with girls, but does she listen? Of course not.

Me and the guys are throwing a small party at their place for my birthday, I haven't spoken to jack in a whole week. I've seen the guys but he just hasn't been there. Nothing's happened between me and Zach. Avery and Daniel broke up. Like I said, Avery can't keep a boyfriend, I haven't seen her as much as I usually do as I'm always with the guys and she doesn't want to see Daniel. She's still my best friend. I told her about jack, she wasn't surprised.
Anyway, it's an hour until my party and I can't wait. I'm turning 17. We've set up everything and I've started getting ready. I finish getting ready and I look like this.

My hair is curled and I'm wearing black heels to make me look taller, even though I'm really small. I have 15 minutes before everyone starts arriving. I hear a knock on the door. "come in" I shout.
Zach walks in, his jaw drops. "wow, you look gorgeous" he says, I blush a little. "thanks" I say. "I got this for you" he says, handing me a box. "I swear to god if that's a spider I'm going to punch you so hard" I say, he laughs, "no promises" he says, "not opening it" I say, "no open it please" he says, "fine" I say.
I open the box to see a heart necklace with the letter l engraved on the front.

"omg Zach this is beautiful" I say, "look on the back" he says, I raise my eyebrow. I turn it over to see the words 'nobody gotta know' engraved on it as well. My heart melts a little. "you sang me this song when we first met" I say, I'm tearing up. "nobody gotta knowâ" he says, I laugh and pull him into a hug. "thank you, Zach, it means a lot" I say. He pulls away from the hug and pecks my lips, I pull back. it was only a peck. "let's go join the others" I say, "yeah" he says, he grabs my hand and leads my downstairs.
Everyone is sitting around, as they see me they all stand up. "my bestie looking fine as hell" Corbyn says, I laugh. "looking good loo" Jonah says, "yeah looking good" Daniel says, "thank guys" I say smiling. I don't see jack. "where's jack" I ask, "err, he went out, he said he's coming back but he had to go somewhere" Daniel says, "okay" I say. "everyone's going to be here soon" Corbyn says.
**30 minutes later**
Everyone who I invited is here, and even more. the guys don't mind that there is a lot of people here. Jack arrived 10 minutes ago, he hasn't said anything to me, not even happy birthday. I don't really care though. Everyone seems to be having a good time. I know I'm 'underage' but I have drunk a little, some guy brought some alcohol, it wasn't a lot only a few bottles and I've had only a little bit. Okay maybe more than a little. glad I'm sleeping here tonight and not my house, otherwise, I would be dead.
As the night goes on, I find myself drinking more and more. I wouldn't say I was drunk, but I was tipsy. More people keep arriving, it is now midnight and officially my birthday. The bring the cake out with sparklers and a bunch of candles, I blow them out but don't wish for anything. I never wish for anything because when I do, it never comes true. So, I gave up on that when I was 9.
I kept wishing for my dad to come back, he never did.
I'm dancing the night away, and I'm pretty sure all my makeup and slid off my face. I feel someone grip my hips. I turn around and see Aiden, how did he get in.
I try to get away but he grips them harder. I start looking around to see if anyone can see what's happening, I don't see any of the boys but jack. I quickly make eye contact with jack and he sees who it is straight away and rushes over.
He pulls Aiden off me. Aiden punches him around the face and jack punches him in the stomach making Aiden crouch over in pain. Everyone starts to stare but when jack throws him out the house, everyone carries on dancing like nothing happened. I sit on the floor, everyone dancing around me. I haven't seen him since he tried to, tried to do whatever he was trying to do. I'm still not sure what that was. And jack saved me again.
He comes over to me sitting on the floor and picks me up bridal style. He takes me somewhere quiet still not saying anything to me. He takes me to his bedroom and puts me down on the bed. "I'm sorry, I didn't know he was going to be here, I don't know how he got in" jack says. I look at him. "I'll leave you to have some time in quiet" he says. I get up and stop him, still not saying anything.
Without thinking twice, I smash my lips into his. It's something I've wanted to do for a week. He pulls away, "I'm so sorry for everything I did to you, I should have never let you go, I'm so..." I cut him off, "don't say anything, this doesn't mean anything" I say. Why do I say that, it means everything? He looks sad but pulls me back into a kiss.
He picks me up, I wrap my legs around his waist, he locks the door behind him and carries me to the bed, my legs still wrapped around him. I tug at his shirt telling him to take it off, he does so. He kisses down my neck, sucking hard, leaving hickeys. He gets up and opens his bedside table draw. I take my dress off. He smirks at me, he smashes him lips into mine again. He takes his pants off. "you sure?" he asks, "yeah" I say.
I don't tell him it's my first time. I don't know why, but I don't. Am I even going to remember this in the morning?
