Chapter 3

We were on our way to the party, the three of us, we took a cab.

"Dude, you should ask your parents to give you back the car." Brian said.

"After what he pulled, I honestly can't say that I blame them." I said, he just looks at.

"you guys are....." We got to the party and the house was a mansion, we get off the car and head to the enters, a big gate which was already open, to reveal a beautiful garden of roses, which liked lovely there every color.

We made our way to the big mansion and music was playing, we reach the glass door, Brian press the door bell, and voice on the other side.

"Hold on, am coming." a voice on the other side, second later the door opened to reveal beautiful inside.

"Kelvin!" Jason said with a smile.

" Guy! come on in." Kelvin said as we walked in and the first thing I notice was the size of the room and with white wall, black wooden tiles, and there were a couple making out in corner, this is was really gonna be something. Student were just parting and having fun.

"Welcome to party." Jason said with a grins. He turned to the 3 Girls standing on the left.

"Excuse me guys but I am gonna get laid." he said as he walked to the girl, this guy will never change.

"what now?" I asked.

"I don't know about you, but am gonna have a drink." Brian said as he walked to the long table were food, soda and beer were.

Shit am not gonna be alone with all these chicks around, I followed him, he pick up two beer and handed me one.

"No thank you but am gonna have a soda."

"Suit yourself." Brian said as I picked up a soda.

"By way, where is Grace?" I asked as I turned to my right and that when I saw her, prettiest and most beautiful girl have ever laid my eyes on.

Just stood meters away from me. with long black hair, she his just standing there in a tight red dress that showed off all her curves, the dress fit her perfectly as if it was made her, with a soda in her hand.

"She told me, that she was not feeling well." he said taking a sip, a light pat on the back bring me back to the party, I even forgot he was speaking.

"Are you even listen?" he said angrily.

"Did you say something?" I asked as I turned to look at him.

"forget it! Am gonna have another drink." he said in frustration as he walked away to get himself another drink.

What now here? I turned my gaze back to the girl in the red dress, fortunately she was still there. Looking like she wasn't enjoy this party at all, well that make two of us. Should I go talk to her, but what am gonna say to her.

"Hey!" a voice behind me, I turn to see Mary, standing behind me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, she was drank and wobbling as she walked to me.

"Am just here to have a good time." she said putting her hand on my shoulder.

"Hey, I just wanna say...." I said but she interrupted me before I could finish my statement.

"Don't worry about it, am over it." she said looking at me, she took a sip from the cup she was held on the other hand, she smelled of liquor or something, I look back were the girl was stand and she was no-longer there, I look around but I couldn't seem to see her anywhere.

I walked to the pool area in hope that I might spot her, but I wasn't in lucky, instead ran into Jason and he was already making out with some girl, I walk by hope that he doesn't see me, but he already saw me.

"Hey!" he said let go of the girl he was kissing, he motioned for me to go to him, I walked to him.

"Any lucky yet?"

"And by lucky you mean?" I asked playing dumb.

"Come on, listen when you see a girl you like just walk up and just let it flow." he said, honestly that is easier said than done every-time I try it, I end up, freezing up I don't what to say.

"Uh..., No unfortunately." I said in a low voice.

What do I have to do? So that this could just stop, "Find a girlfriend." Jason answered, shit! I said that out loud.

"I've told you, that I don't need a girlfriend." I was getting sick of of this party, for some reason I couldn't get the girl in the red dress out of my head and mind she just looked so beautiful, there is just something about her, I don't know what but I felt something special the moment I laid my eyes on her.

I was lost in my thought all I wanted was just to get out here. I turned to walk away, but I heard Jason call my name.

"Andrew!" I turned slowly and there she was standing next to him, she even look more beautiful up-close. I noticed that she had that.

"I want to introduce you to someone." Jason said happily as he pull her in front of me.

"This is Alisa, Alisa Andrew." he said and I was lost for word, I didn't know what to say, I was speechless, I don't think have it in me to do that.

I don't want to embarrass myself. I was just taken by her beauty. I was happy to see her, but I wasn't ready to talk to this girl, I was afraid, what if she doesn't like me.

She was just so beautiful standing there, just a feet away from were I was standing, I couldn't manage to alter a single word.

"I'll leave you too it, don't screw this up! again." Jason whimpered in my ear as he walked away with the girl he was with.

"Hi." she said with a soft smile, offering me her hand, I was just frozen, my heart beating faster than it as ever beaten before. I just stood there staring at her, a dab on the back, bring me back.

"Um.., Hi, Andrew." she said, I anxiously shook her hand.

" Nice to meet you, Andrew." she said.

" Now, if you'll excuse me, am leaving." she said as turned to head for the exit.

"No!" I said, she turned to look at me.

"I, uh, the night is still young, can't you stay a little longer?"

"Maybe, I could little for few minutes." she said.

"I have to look for my cousin." she said look around.

"We can start at the pool." I said not looking at her.

"let's go." She said, as we made our way to the pool.

"Um, so how did you end up here? Cause you don't look like you're enjoying." I asked, she looked at me, as I look away in timid.

She chuckled, "my cousin drag me here, even thought I didn't want to come." she said sigh sadly.

"She says am tedious." she said in low tone voice.

"Well, I don't think your boring, I think fun to be around, even thought we just met." I said and a soft smile appeared on her face that showed her perfect white teeth.

"Thanks, let's have a drink, uh, do you want a drink?" I said looking and she just giggled.

"Sorry but I don't drink." she said.

"we could have a soda." I said.

"Okay." she said as we walked to the table and I pour us two cup soda.

"how come, I never seen you here before." I asked curiously.

"I, Uh, I came to visit my uncle and his family, I haven't seen them in a while."

"So you're not here to stay?" I asked anxiously waiting for the answer hoping it was not what I was thinking.

"Nope." she said. What a let down, and also heartbreaking.

Just when you start to get your hopes up something happens that makes it impossible. I heard someone call, "Andrew." I turned to Grace Walking to me.

"Hey what are you doing here? I thought you were sick." I asked surprised to see her there.

"Well, I just came to you know..." she said with a smile.

"Yeah." I said smiling back, "See you." as she made her into the house.

We walked around, looking for her cousin and just enjoyed each others company, until I saw grace running out the party house with her hand on her face.

"Grace what happened?" I asked with concern. She looked at me for a moment.

"Why don't you ask your friend." she said angrily with watery eyes.

She quickly made her way out, moments later Brian stormed out after her.

"Dude, what happened?" I asked.

"I'll explain later." he said not stopping.

"Baby! Wait, I can explain." he said running after her she stopped and he grab her but she shoved him off.

"You betrayed me Brian, how could you do that me!" she said with tears in her eyes.

"Am so sorry, I don't know what got in to me." he said running is hand in hair.

"Sorry! Sorry isn't gonna change a anything." she said.

She turned to run and grab her, she turned and slapped him on the cheek. He let her and she to her car and drive off, everyone were just watching them, I walked to Brian.

"What just happened?" I said worriedly.

"I will explain later." As he walk back in with inside disappointment on his face. Returned seconds later.

"I have to go, you'll let Jason know that I had to leave." he said. I just nodded as he took off.

"I have to find my cousin fast." Alisa said.

"What's your coz's name?" I asked curiously.

"Mary." she replied, I was not expecting that at all, I had no idea Mary as a cousin.

"Mary!"

"Yeah, Do you know her?" she asked, this is gonna be a problem.

"I, Um, we are at the same school." I said surprisedly.

We found Mary who was drink, but before she could reach us, I had to out live.

"So, Um, am I gonna see you again?" I asked.

"I don't know, maybe." she said with a grin.

I think am in love. I checked my clock and its 10pm, shit, I've to find my Jason we have to leave.
