"And if you want to go home at any time, I'll take you. Just let me know." Daisy told me as we pulled up infront of the house. There were cars lining the street, the slight smell of smoke encased in the air as we got out.

"Who's going to be here?" I asked as we approached the back gate. I answered my own question when we walked into the large backyard filled with, alot of people.

"This way." She grabbed my hand and tugged my hand, pulling me through the crowd to where all her friends sat at a little table. Well, I guess they're kind of my friends too? No, that's ridiculous. I barely know them.

I saw an empty seat next to Liam and took it. He's the only one I was sure liked me. or at least he was geniunly nice to me. "Hey Mads, how's it going?"

"Alright, yeah." I smiled as he handed me a water bottle.

"How was your first week of school?" He asked over the loud music and chattering of people.

"Not as bad as I thought it would be to be completely honest with you." I laughed. Liam talked to me a little bit longer. He told me about all the college's he wants to apply for and how he wants to be a lawyer and he seemed so... set. I hadn't thought about that stuff in ages.

"I have to use the bathroom so badly." I laughed looking at my empty water bottle.

"If you go through the door and up the stairs there's a bathroom on the left." He told me and I looked at him oddly. How did he know that? "This is my cousins house. I'm not a creep."

I laughed and walked away from the table through the crowd of people. I went up the stairs and tried to open the door but it was locked, great. I was about to pee myself and this person is probably taking their damn time.

"Woah, hey." Mason grinned as he walked up the stairs. My stomach twisted into knots after remembering what I heard him say.

"Hi." I mumbled leaning against the wall.

"Waiting for the bathroom?" I nodded tapping my foot on top of my other one. "I think you're really pretty. Want to go find a quiet room and talk?" He asked taking a sip of his drink.

"Uh, no thanks. I'm here with a couple friends. I'm just using the bathroom real quick." I smiled my bladded near explosion.

"Yeah but don't you want to get to know me?" He gave me a cocky smile standing next to me, the smell of vodka showering my face. I just shook my head and picked at the little bit of nail polish that was left on my nails. "C'mon sweetheart,we'll have fun." He nudged me with his elbow making me stumble a little bit.

"I said no thank you."

"What don't you think I'm good looking?" He sneered, giving me a disgusted look. "C'mon just for a little while, it'll be really quick,"

"I said no th-"

"Mate give it a rest, fuck off." Harry growled stepping out of the bathroom.

"You're loss baby." Mason chuckled before walking back down the stairs. After Harry walked out of the bathroom, a girl followed right behind him sending him a wink before she skipped down the stairs.

"You alright, yeah?"

"Yeah." I mumbled tugging at the bottom of shirt.

"Do you want me to walk you back over to the group?" He questioned reaching out his hand. I moved out of the way slightly recieving a confusing glare from Harry. "What?"

"Uh, nothing I just have to use the bathroom." I said looking past him, my face wrinkled up thinking about what Harry was doing with that girl in there and if I even want to use the bathroom. I'd like to get through my first highschool party without getting some type of disease...
