Chapter Three

1122 Words
I looked in the mirror one final time while running my hands through my hair to mess it up a bit before heading next door. I dressed simple. A crop top with fitted ripped jeans. Sam was coming tonight! Can you believe it? when I woke up I saw a message from him saying he got an invite to Trent's party and was wondering if I was going. I told him I'd see him there. It was 8 when I walked through the door. Blame my alarm clock for making me late. The party was in full swing and there were so many people there. I pushed through the crowd to find at least one familiar face. I saw Ash making out with Kim against a wall and turned and headed in the opposite direction to avoid them. "Hey Em!"Ash called out and quickly let go of Kim. Damn it! I turned around and plastered a fake smile on my face. "Hey Ash!have you seen Lee?" I ignored Kim who glared daggers at me for ruining her make out sesh. "She's probably getting drunk somewhere. But I need to talk to you,"he grabbed my hand. "Maybe later,"I pulled my hand away and walked off. Moving fast to get away from them, I didn't see where I was going and bumped into something solid. "I'm sorry," I said looking up and a big smile formed on my face. "Hey beautiful! I've been looking for you,"Sam smiled down at me. I squealed and gave him a big hug. I pulled away, my arms now around his neck. "I've missed you," I said into his ear. "I've missed you too my sweet Em," he whispered into my ear. I tugged on his hand. "Cmon let's go find something to drink." I'm not much of a drinker. And when I say not much I mean I've never had more than a sip of wine. But I guess the excitement of tonight gave me the courage to down a red cup of whatever the content was in one go. The drink immediately rushed to my head. Sam held me tight to keep me steady. I downed two more drinks when I looked across and saw that Kim was practically eating Ash's face out. I couldn't help but get jealous even though I'd sworn I'd gotten over him! "Em you ok?" "I'm fine I just need to sit down for a bit." "Let's go find some place to sit." We walked into the living room and sat down on the Sofa. There were so many people here. I didn't realize there were this much kids at school. All of a sudden a drunk Lee popped down next to me. "Hey babe I was wondering where you were,"she giggled and kissed my forehead. "Oh have you seen Trent yet?He's been asking for you." She then realized I had company. "Em?I'm assuming this hunk right here is Sam?" She put out her hand and Sam took it. "Then you must be the famous Lee?" "In the flesh,"she laughed. We sat for a while in silence watching our school mates dance. When I looked across the dance floor I saw Trent watching me. I signalled him to come over but he just gave me a small smile and walked away. What was up with him? Before I knew it Lee was pulling me up to dance. I pulled Sam up with me. Sam pulled my back towards him and held me tight as our bodies swayed to the beat. Lee found a dancing partner and was grinding on him. Guess she was more wasted then I was. I turned to face Sam and I think it was the alcohol because I grabbed his face and kissed him. We had only shared one kiss at camp and I was reminded of how incredible he tasted. He held me tight and kissed me back. I spent the entire night with Lee and Sam,dancing and taking shots(well Lee and I were drinking coz Sam wasn't) and before we knew it the party was ending and everyone was leaving. I walked Sam to his car and gave him a kiss. "I really wish you weren't leaving." Man I was more confident than usual. "Sorry beautiful I'm the designated driver remember so got to take the boys home. I really wish I wasn't leaving too but I'll see you at school on Monday and text me ok?" He leaned down and kissed me again before grabbing one of his drunk mates and putting him in the backseat of his car. After they all got in, they drove off. I felt someone staring at me so I turned around. "So.... you and Sam huh?" Trent was in front of me, arms folded, studying me. "Yeah...It kind of just happened at soccer camp." "He's not good for you." "What?!Why?" "He just isn't ok?" "As much as I respect you Trent I can't just stop seeing him. I like him!" His eyes went dark and he took a step towards me. He gripped my chin and forced me to look him in the eyes. "I don't want you to see him again." He spoke so softly it somehow sent shivers down my spine. Did Trent's eyes get bluer?Hmm.. I never realized this before but when I gazed into his eyes in the position we were in I swear he looked different. He looked...Hotter?? I must be really drunk. I cleared those thoughts out of my head. He's practically your big brother Emily, stop it! But I swear our bodies were so close and I was getting dizzy, probably from all the drinks I had. "Why Trent?" I asked as softly as he did. "Because..."he moved closer, "I think I'm-" "Hey Man!"Ash came out of nowhere and slapped him on the back."We gotta clean up before the folks get home." "f**k!"he muttered. I don't know if he was upset that he didn't get to finish or that he had to clean up. Either way I was glad we were interrupted. I mean we were so close! It felt like....it felt like we were about to kiss! Maybe it was a one sided feeling. My feeling,but I wasn't going to let us get into that position again. I can't have these thoughts! I have Sam(we weren't official or anything but you get what I mean) and Trent is my best friend's brother! "I'll clean the kitchen!"I quickly volunteered and ran towards the house, before they could respond, leaving the boys outside. When I turned back there was some kind of staring competition going on between them. I rushed into the door as fast as I could. This was one weird night!
