❝She is an old soul with a new style, who wears black and speaks her mind.

So powerful, she leaves her print on everyone she touches, because she is both: A savage and a sweetheart ❞

Parties are nothing but just feral, untamed messes. Especially college parties, they are all about drugs, loud music, drunken students, lot's of stupid and bad decisions and future full of regrets.

They knew or maybe they didn't, that whatever it was going on, it wasn't going to lead them anywhere except some stranger's bed or maybe even jail?

I liked parties and having fun, but hated the unnecessary problems it would bring. But no matter how hard I've tried not to come, that idiotic excuse of human Finn would've brought me here anyway.

And so, here I was standing in front of a beautiful house with dancing dim lights coming from inside and cheers echoing in the quiet night air.

"Why do I feel like my dress is a little loose?" Maria said frustratingly, getting out of the car.

She was wearing a tight gold shimmer dress, hugging her curves perfectly reaching at her mid thigh. Her brown hair was curled and hanging loosely on her shoulders. Everybody told her that she looked great and it was true, but that stupid girl couldn't get this through her thick stubborn skull.

"It's perfect Mar! Stop complaining" Kate commented coming by her side and fixing Maria's hair.

Kate wasn't much of a whole dress up type of girl, but tonight she was looking breathtaking as well, in her deep pink off shoulder dress. Her blonde hair was tied up in a bun. No doubt, Theo was going to have a hard time, keeping his hands to himself.

"But it's kind of-" Maria began to say as I quickly interrupted her coldly.

"Seriously Girl! Shut up, you've got more issues than fucking Vogue"

She glared at me and without hesitating a bit, I glared at her in return. Our eye to eye fights were stopped by Sharon's voice.

"You girls look absolutely stunning"

I tilted my head and saw Sharon making her way towards us, in her simple white dress. Some kind of silver belt on her waist and white stiletto. A bright smile dancing on her lips, matching that sparkly glint in her eyes.

Wow! These girls really took their time to get ready, I thought amused.

Now that I think about it. I was the only one who didn't pay any second thought to what I would wear or should wear.

I just grabbed my black top, pairing it with a black skirt and completed my outfit with black heels, at least I tried. My hair left unbothered and there was hardly any makeup on my face, except the dark lipstick.

"You too look great. We're all gonna rule tonight" Kate chimed excitedly, looking at her in awe.

"Come on, let's go inside. The drinks are waiting for me" Maria grumbled, moving towards the front door.

"She will probably be drunk by next hour. Bet?" I asked Kate, raising my eyebrow as we trailed behind her with Sharon by our side.

"It's on"

~~~

Thick humid air and the strong smell of smoke and Beer engulfed us just as we entered. Loud music and Kendrick Lamar's voice was blasting through speakers, I could practically feel the floor and walls vibrate with the sound.

The house was packed with people dancing, drinking, fooling around and just plainly enjoying.

"FINALLY! THE SPECIAL GUESTS ARE HERE" Hearing a voice cheer, I turned around and saw Finn making his way towards us, cutting the crowd like a blade.

"Hey Finnie!"

"Nice party"

"Where's the damn Alcohol?"

I rolled my eyes, looking around the mess. Students dancing on the floor without any care in the world, others playing some kind of drinking game, I didn't know. The smell of cigarettes were fresh in the air, almost suffocating.

"Thanks. You girls look beautiful and you can find drinks in Kitchen" Finn chuckled, pointing towards a door, where students were lingering with a bottle of beer in their hand. At the corner by the stairs a couple were heavily making out.

"Damn, this is crazy" Maria let out loud incredulously.

Finn gave a cheeky grin from beside me and spoke "Yes"

"Why the fuck are they still here?" I was grossed out by the couple and turned towards Him.

"To enjoy, duh. Now, come on girls, let's enjoy the party too"

Enjoy. He had said, funny. What was there to enjoy? I mentally scoffed and dragged myself towards the door, Finn had pointed out earlier, to the kitchen.

As I passed by, from the corner of my eyes, I saw that girl dressed in a purple skimpy dress was kissing the life out of a guy. Gross

Stepping inside, I saw people taking out bottles of beer from the cooler and sitting by the counter talking, more likely slurring words that nobody could understand, at least not on the planet earth.

One drink wouldn't hurt I thought as I strolled towards the cooler and opening it, took out a chilled beer. The cold bottle in my head almost felt like fire, burning my skin.

Picking up the bottle opener from the counter top, I placed it on the cap carefully and pulled it. After a faint cry, the cap fell on the ground, getting lost in the dark

Letting out a sigh, I sat on the nearest stool I spotted, settling down comfortably with the bottle safely wrapped around my fingers and faced the crowd surrounding me.

The bitter taste of hops, spurt down my throat just as I took a long awaited sip of the beer. Suddenly, I was floating in it's cold soothing ecstasy as I closed my eyes, cherishing every moment.

"Hello Dollface"

My eyes flew open in an instant as I saw a guy with raven colored hair, around my age sitting on the stool next to mine. He was leaning against the countertop, his elbow rested comfortably on top.

Ignoring him, I turned my head in the opposite direction and took another sip of my drink, focusing on the group of girls, talking.

"Amazing party, isn't it?" I heard him asked and me being me, I ignored him again. He was clearly ruining my mood and it was not good.

"I am Reece"

"You here alone?" He piped up again.

I hastily turned towards him and said "Can you shut up?" My voice sounded awfully calm, but what he didn't know was that it was the calm before the storm.

He smirked slightly leaning in and spoke "Oh! I can. After all there's so much more to do with this tongue"

Leaning back, away from him, I rolled my eyes "First of all, you won't be able to do any of it, if I cut your tongue off, for not shutting your mouth at time and second, move away gee! Your breath stinks"

It was a lie obviously. But, It was enough to throw him off guard, judging by the fact how quickly he pulled away and checked his breath with his hand in front of his mouth, with a weird expression.

I chuckled darkly, making him look at me again and then there was that disgusting smirk "I have an offer for you, a mind blowing offer. What'd you say, sweet cheeks? You will love every moment of it" He offered, trying to come closer towards me.

Oh no! He didn't!

I scrunched my fingers into angry cannonballs and opened my mouth to curse him, but got interrupted when a girl came and smoothly slid on his lap. Okay. What the fuck? Excuse me?

"Hey handsome" The girl murmured seductively, close to his ear and I quickly realized that the girl on his lap was the same girl who was busy kissing another guy before. That girl in a skimpy purple dress.

That perverted guy also known as Reece chuckled, running his hands on her bare thigh and looked towards me "So what do you think about my offer?"

"I think that you should take your offer and stuck it up to your ass" I spat while taking another sip of my beer as the girl on his lap gave me a bitter look.

"But you don't even know, what I am offering you"

"Exactly and If it looks like I give a fuck, please tell me. I don't wanna give off the wrong impression"

Taking the last sip of my drink, I was about to leave when that skank on his lap muttered 'Bitch'

My grip on the bottle tightened as I clenched my jaw. The sudden anger and annoyance towards them, filled my body like burning fire.

I turned towards that girl, who was already looking at me with narrowed eyes and fumed "Well I may be a bitch, but at least I don't go sucking on every guy I see"

Venom laced my tone and without caring a bit, I got up from the stool and exited the kitchen, leaving her there shocked.

Cursing them to hell, I tried to walk through a thick crowd of wild students dancing around carelessly.

"WINTER!"

I turned around and saw Nate waving his hand at me, calling me, where Finn and some other people I didn't know were sitting with numerous empty and some filled beer bottles around. Rolling my eyes, I approached them with a cold expression.

"What?"

"Have a seat, why don't you?" He said excitingly, giving me that Cheshire cat grin.

"Sure" I shrugged and sat beside him on the couch. There was another guy sitting there too, so I made sure to Leave a lot of gap between me and that other guy. I had never seen him before, maybe he wasn't from our college.

Nate was first, then there was me sitting beside him and then there was quite a lot of space, then another guy.

But before I could say something that guy scooted over "Why sitting so far? I don't bite.... Unless you want me to" He trailed off suggestively and winked.

I rolled my eyes scooting little more farther and muttered in cold tone "And I don't punch, unless you provoke me to"

"Who are you?" A girl sitting on a loveseat opposite to me asked. Her voice filled with disgust as she looked me up and down with same disgusted look. Seriously, those people really knew how to make someone feel welcomed.

I leaned against the couch, crossing my arms on my chest and spoke "I am just a girl who enjoys minding her own business"

"Excuse me?" She screeched, clearly she wasn't expecting that.

"Yes, excuse you. You can leave anytime, if you want"

She looked at me with fury and gripped her clutch tightly, spoke up "Who do you think you are?"

"As, I said before, I am jus-"

"Shut up! You don't know who I am or what I am capable of. This dress of mine is worth more than your entire family's business " She said.

That spoiled rich Prada princess must've felt proud thinking that she had offended me, but to be honest I was more amused than offended. Stupid girl! She didn't know me.

"Now now, that's where you are wrong chick and I must agree that dress you are wearing sure looks nice" I smirked, when the girl gave me a smug look, then I quickly added "But, not on you obviously"

The smug look on her face quickly fell as she glared at me angrily. I almost laughed when her left eye twitched. Victory felt nice and destructive.

Nate let out a"Meoww" as I tilted my head and glared at him. That cheeky bastard had some nerves to wink at me in return.

"Okay! Cut it out guys. So, Winter, you wanna play with us?" Finn asked, lightening up the mood.

"What game?"

"Drunken artists" He grinned mischievously at me, well I knew better than playing that idiotic game.

"No, I am afraid not. Don't plan to drink much tonight"

"Oh! Come onnn, It will be fun" He whined. Few people sitting there gave me a curious look as I shrugged.

"Nope and argue with me on this as much as you want, but trust me, you are not going to win this one"

~~~

Bored, Bored and Bored. Those were the exact three emotions, I was feeling at that moment. At first, when they started the game, It was really fun to watch, but as the game continued they got really drunk and started babbling nonsense. So, I finally excused myself from there, leaving them on their own mess.

After sometime, I was really close to ditch the party and return, but controlled myself. After all, I was designated to drag Maria's drunk ass to dorm with me.

I wanted to go back as soon as possible, because I was feeling really tired, but I just couldn't. Besides, I would be all by myself there. Alone.

In the end, I was just roaming in the house aimlessly. So far, I had seen the kitchen and Hall, where obviously the party was and the living room, where students, mostly couples, were.... busy.

Sighing, I walked out of the living room, pushing past the sweaty bodies. From the corner of my eyes, I saw stairs and without wasting any time, I made my way towards it.

Gladly, nobody was anywhere around it. Maybe no one was allowed to go upstairs?

Hesitantly, I walked up the stairs, cautiously looking down if some was watching, thankfully everyone was busy in their own Nirvana.

I reached up and my jaw went down straight on the floor, the sight in front of me was beautiful. There were like three doors, probably three rooms and lot's of paintings covering the walls. It was just so aesthetically pleasing.

The paintings looked really ancient and quite precious, maybe that's why no one was upstairs. Slowly, steadily I went towards the first door.

Winter! What are you doing? Leave. My subconscious yelled but Ignoring it, I pushed open the door. Taking orders had never been my style.

The room was completely empty, like fully empty, not a single thing was in sight. The walls were cream colored, a visible sign of dust layered it. It seemed like that room had not been used in ages.

Sighing I closed the door, walking out. Now what? I thought it was disappointing.

My eyes fell on the next four doors and Smirking inwardly, I walked towards the second door, trailing my fingers gently on glass railing on my way.

My hand reached up the door knob as I hesitantly opened the second door.

Darkness, complete utter darkness welcomed me as I walked inside with a frown. My fingers fidgeted in the dark as I quickly switched on the lights. My eyes instantly widened as I took the sight in front of me.

Dark Maroon colored walls decorated with artistic pieces. A big king sized fluffy bed in center and a gorgeous golden showcase, filled with trophies and some crafted art pieces. Whoever lived there, must've loved Art. On the other side of the room, there was a door, I assumed that it could be a bathroom.

Then silently I moved towards the show case, closing the door behind me. I yelped in surprise, when the door closed rather loudly.

Sighing in relief, I looked around the room and then went towards the showcase. Lots of trophies, for painting, racing and from some kind of competition.

Breathing the scenario in, I took one last glance at the room and walked back towards the door. Twisting the doorknob I tried to open it, but to my surprise, it didn't budge.

Cursing under my breath, I tried again to open the door a little harder this time. Twisting the doorknob continuously but nothing worked.

I froze in my place speechless as the terrific realization hit me, making me grow crazy with anxiety. The door was locked?

Winter locked herself in a room, I mean...

Ugh until next time, tell me what do you think about this chapter? Don't forget to vote and comment what you think.

Bye, Take care. Share your smile with the world, it's a symbol of friendship and peace :)

Love, Zee....
