18.
PERCY'S POV.
I refused the shots Lucky offered for the forth time that evening. My body was present but my mind was far away. A month ago we had planned on attending this party together. It was the most famous annual gathering of the college and I was shocked to know she never attended.
This year however,she was going to attend it because I requested. I was excited about bringing her and couldn't wait to see her reaction. Now I wasn't too sure she was attending and even if she did, it wouldn't be with me.
I sighed. How many times have I told myself I wasn't going to think about her? Yet she was all I could think of. I stood up, meaning to go get some fresh air outside. It wasn't midnight yet the stench of alcohol was overwhelming. I almost made it to the door, pushing through sweaty bodies and protecting myself from wandering hands until I saw her.
