Crazy

I was excited, tonight was going to be fun. I definitely needed this. What more than a way to get drunk and forget about things I wanted to forget. After we finish the film, Claire and I head up so we can start to get ready. A good few minutes go by before I find something to wear, a black dress. I realise it’s the exact one I wore the night I met Harry for the first time at the club a few days ago.

“I love your dress, Sid! Where’d you get it?!” Claire asks as I walk back in to the guest room upstairs. She sat on the edge of the bed in a red dress that looked really good on her. I was quite jealous with how good it looked with her tan complexion. I was somewhat tan, yeah, but I didn’t look near as good as she does.

“Got it from the mall,” I tell her with a smile as I walk over and sit down so I could slip on my flats. I made a smart decision, because I really didn’t want my feet to hurt like last time thanks to those damn heels I wore. I move a small strand of my hair behind my ear before I begin to put them on. “I got it at the mall a while back with Kendall I think,” I smile as I stand up after I slip them on my feet.

“What about yours, Claire? I love the color of yours, it looks great on you!” I tell her as I slowly walk to the doorway so I could go fix my hair in the bathroom. I flat ironed it a bit ago, thanks to Claire, who had her iron with her, but I still have a few more strands to do that I feel aren’t looking quite right.

“Thanks, love,” she tells me and reaches for her clutch that was the same shade of crimson in her dress. “I’ve had it for a long while, can’t remember actually,” she replies with a laugh. I smile and tell her it’s not a problem before I walk out the door so I can finish my hair. I was close to being ready to go, yet kind of nervous. I’m glad I’ll have Harry by my side but slightly worried that I’ll run into him.

You’re done with him, Sid! I hear my voice in my mind. Don’t waste your thoughts about him, he’s a scum bag! I can’t help but roll my eyes at the thoughts in my head as I continue on to the bathroom in the hall I then notice is right across from Harry’s room. I notice the light was on and the door was closed, most likely occupied, but I wasn’t for certain.

I then take a moment to knock lightly, just to be sure. I hear someone mutter something from behind the door. It didn’t seem like Harry, with his deep voice. I step back while I wait for whoever was in there. the door swings open and I notice Braden standing there. I give him a small smile as he moves so I can go in and do what I was planning on doing, my hair.

It takes me a good few minutes, but it’s finally how I want it. I make my way back to the guest room so I could grab my clutch which held my ID, phone and some money, along with a few things like mascara and some lip gloss, just in case I needed it. The room was empty, so I guess Claire was downstairs waiting.

“Sid, you ready to go? The guys are waiting downstairs,” I look over toward the door to see Claire standing in the doorway.

“Yeah, I’m all set and we can get going,” I tell her and hold onto my clutch which held the items I was nervous of losing. That’s why I keep it close to me at all times. I follow her out the door after I turn the light off. The two of us are soon making our way down the stairs to meet the guys.

“Damn,” is all I hear from Harry, who stood there in his usual dark attire, a v-neck, some jeans that were torn in the knees and these brown ratty looking boots on his feet, but other than that, he looked nice I had to admit. He cleaned up well. It was kind of weird seeing him in boots since I’m so used to seeing him in his sneakers. But I like it, I really do. I smile a bit and look at him before I shift my eyes away.

“You look good, Sid,” he smiles at me and I can’t help but smile a bit and feel my cheeks heat up a bit. He comes forward and wraps one of his arms around my waist. I smile as he gives me a quick kiss on the lips before he looks at the two who stood before us, Claire and Braden.

“Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s get this night out started!” Claire says in excitement. I nod and say I was more than ready, because I am. More than ready to get this night started. It was going to be fun. We all agree before we are out the door to head to our destination of the night, a night club that was close to campus.

The four of us get into Braden’s small car and we are soon on our way. To pass the time a bit, I pull out my phone and decide to shoot a message to Kendall and see if she and Payton wanted to meet us there. I mean, I’m glad I’ll be there with Harry, but I want to spend some time with my girls, too. After I type it up in a group message, I send it and lock my phone.

“You look gorgeous,” I hear Harry whisper in my ear and pull me close. I smile a bit to myself and take his hand in mine. He laces our fingers together as I look over at him.

“Thanks,” I tell him.

The two of us talk amongst ourselves for the next few minutes as the car continues to move. Braden was driving, Claire in the passenger seat beside him, which left Harry and I in the back. In the middle of going on about some nonsense, my phone begins to go off and I could feel it buzzing in my clutch I held in my lap. Someone was messaging me, I think, but who, I wonder. I bet it was just Kendall.

“Sorry,” I apologise with a smile before I pull my phone out.

“It’s alright, babe,” he smiles back and turns to look out the window while I grab my phone. I press the home button on my phone once it’s in my grasp to see one from Kendall. My lips curve up into a smile as I read what it said: We’ll be there in a bit! See you then, lovely (:

After I send back a quick smiley face emoji, I set my phone in my lap for a few before I put it in the clutch so I won’t lose it. It was going to be a fun night for sure, with my best friends and new guy. A good five minutes later, I notice we were no longer moving. I turn to my right to look out the window to see we were in front of the same club I was at a few days prior, the night I first met Harry.

“C’mon, Sid,” Harry says and I look over to find him looking at me. He was standing outside, holding out his hand for me. I undo my safety belt and grab hold of his hand and tighten my grip on my clutch with the other. I step out and straighten out my dress as we stand there. After I do that, I move a ways so Harry can shut the door.

“Ready?” he looks at me as I feel one of his arms wrap around my waist. I slowly nod my head and hold my clutch tighter against me, careful to drop it or lose it for that matter. The four of us make our way up to the entrance of the club. We stand in the line for a few minutes before we are let inside. The place was packed as usual, being the weekend.

“Accompany me to the bar?” I ask as I look at Harry. “Need a drink,” I mumble loudly over the music.

“Of course,” he smiles and takes my hand in his. I lace my fingers through his and we are soon on our way over to the bar. Harry and I take a seat on two of the empty bar stools once we are there.

“What’ll it be?” a guy walks up to the counter where we were in his work attire.

“Best beer you got, top shelf, mate,” Harry tells the guy. “One for each of us,” he points to each of us.

He nods before going off to make our drinks. While we wait, I begin to look around the place. So many people were out tonight. I was in major need of getting things off my mind and I knew this would do the trick. It’s done its job before. Harry and I ramble on about random things that came to mind while we wait for the guy to return with our drinks.

A few minutes later, I glance back at the bar to find our drinks sitting there. I reach for my clutch to pull out some money to pay when I am stopped by Harry’s hand grabbing onto mine and telling me not to worry about it.

I thank him with a smile before I reach for the glass so I can take a drink. It felt cold as it slid down my throat but I liked it. For the next few minutes, Harry and I sit and drink our beers, chatting every so often. This is actually one of the best nights so far, I’ve had in a while. It felt nice. A few drinks in, I grab hold of Harry’s hand and pull on it slightly.

“D-dance with me?” I ask as I look at him.

He smiles and nods before standing up and helping me up to my feet. One of his arms wraps around my waist as we go over to the dance floor that was crowded with people dancing to the music. It was a fast song that was playing. The alcohol was slowly beginning to take effect in my system but I didn’t let that stop me. I wanted to let loose and have some fun. That’s what I did, with Harry by my side.

After we dance a while, I pull out my phone to check it. Nothing. I wonder if the girls are here yet. I had a few things I wanted to tell them. Harry and I were sat in a booth along with Braden and Claire who were focused on each other, laughing about god knows what.

“Somethin’ wrong, babe?” Harry asks, concern in his voice as he looks at me.

“Just wondering if Kendall is here yet, said she was on her way,” I mutter and take a swig of my beer.

“Ah,” he says and pulls me closer to him. I smile as he leans forward and kisses me on the forehead. “Bet I can keep you occupied until then, hmm..” he whispers in my ear and I can’t help but chuckle at him and his cheekiness. He pulls me closer to him, resting his arm on my waist. I smile and give him a small kiss on the lips. He deepens the kiss and I can’t help but smile into the kiss. I kiss him back and feel him pull me closer as he could in the booth we sat in.

“Get a room you two!” I recognise it was Kendall.

Harry and I slowly part from the kiss and he wraps one of his arms around me as I turn to see her standing there with Jake and Payton. I like how I feel around him, how I feel safe. I know we haven’t really been together long or known each other for a long time but I feel like we can make it last, and I want it to. I’m glad to have him in my life, so glad. I can’t help but roll my eyes and laugh a bit at Kendall’s remark.

“Hey Sid! Hey Harry!” Payton smiles at me and Harry.

“’Ello,” he replies.

I turn to him and whisper to him that I was going to go hang out with them, Payton and Kendall for a bit. He gives me a nod and tells me to have some fun. I tell him I will and give him a small kiss before I go off with the girls to get a drink. I was ready to get a little more alcohol in me so it will be easier for me to tell them what happened with Chris earlier, last night rather. Just the thought of it pissed me off. I’m glad we were finally over and I’m finally free of him. I love the freedom to do what I want again and not be tied down to an asshole like him. I’m glad Harry isn’t like that, very glad. This is still just the beginning of a long night and it wasn’t far from over yet. At least I’m spending time with people I care about, though, which makes it better.
