Olivia's POV

I stood in my closet, looking around. "I seriously have nothing to wear" I pouted. 

"You're kidding. You seriously have a billion clothes, plus we've been doing this for TWO HOURS" I glared at Keith. 

"It's not that easy, Keith. I don't know if it's casual or not. I'm not going to show up in jeans to a fancy place. But I'm also not going to wear a big ol' dress at a casual place." I slid down the wall, putting my head in my hands. "Then just do something in the middle." I looked at Keith and stared at him for a minute. "Uh, Olivia?" He moved his hand in front of me. "Keith you're a genius!" I got up and instantly started going through my closet. "You're telling me you haven't thought about that alre-" I put a finger to my lips, shushing him. He shrugged and went back on his phone. 

Finally, I got an outfit. A black silk dress, with a jean jacket halfway down my arms. "Okay, okay, what about this?" Keith looked up from his phone and stood up, "Okayyy girl I see you, I see you." I laughed and sat at my vanity. "Soo, who're you trying to impress?" I ignored the question for a moment. "Nobody, nope, nope, nope." I tried to keep a serious face, trying to not give it away. "Sure, whatever you say. Let's get going pleeeease." I put up a finger, curling my hair. "One moment!!" I heard him sigh, and I got up, putting on my shoes. "You really need to learn how to drive, Keith," I told him, laughing.

Courtney's POV

I kept close by Shayne at the party. I wasn't expecting such a crowd, but I don't mind. The more the better. I saw Noah come in and Shayne called him over. "Heyy Noah!" he said to him, patting his back. I waved at Noah. "Hey, guys." he looked around, pushing up his glasses. "Noah, since this is your first party being 21, I pledge to give you the best time ever." Just as Shayne said that Anthony came over. "Did I hear there's a first-timer?" He gave Noah a red cup, and I noticed Shayne glaring. 

After that, I saw Anthony and Shayne's attention to the door. Keith walked up confused, "What? Is there something on my face?" he started to feel all over his face. Shayne looked at him, "No, shh." When Keith moved out of the way I saw what they were looking at. Olivia. She walked up to us, giving that annoying big smile. God, I hate that. 

Anthony's POV

When Olivia walked in I was stunned. Her long brown curly hair, bouncing. Her big smile and her dark brown eyes sparkling. "Hey, guys!" 

"Hey!" me and Shayne said in sync. Why was he all happy? He has a girlfriend. Seems like he forgot what happened. "Soo, Noah's first party huh?" She laughed and I looked over. "Haha yeah, and the best party he will ever have." I chuckled, taking another drink. "Well, as his best friend, I'll make it his best." Shayne was getting defensive now, and Courtney noticed it. "Well, we're going to go explore. Bye." 

Thank god she took him. And apparently, Noah got lost somewhere. Most likely with Keith. But I didn't mind, that means me and Olivia get more time together. I grabbed two cups, "Drinks?" She smiled, "Duh," Olivia replied, taking one. We both took sips and I sightly laughed. "What?" I scratched the back of my head. "Oh nothing," I replied, drinking. I noticed she started to get a little drowsy, and weak. "Hey, maybe we should go to my room? To get some rest y'know." Olivia slightly mumbled something and tripped. I caught her and carried her and started taking her upstairs.

Shane's POV

Keith, Noah, and I were in our own spot by the couch. I lost Courtney maybe an hour or two ago. Noah was definitely a lightweight, as he was leaning over the couch almost passed out. Keith and I pushed off the couple making out, for Noah to lay down. "Aww, little baby Noah is sleepy" After Keith said that we both burst into laughter. I looked over to the stairs to see Anthony carrying Olivia. "Hey Keith, I'll be right back." He nodded and I followed up the stairs. 

Is this a bad idea? I mean it's his house and all. Well, it's too late to rethink. I caught up with Anthony and Olivia. I turned him around, putting my hand on her shoulder. "Hey dude, I think it's better if she comes home with us." After I suggested that he gave me a cold look. "And I think it's better if she gets some rest here. It's not of your business anyways." And with that, he walked into the room with her before I could do anything. I walked back downstairs to the party, maybe I'm just overreacting. Hopefully.
