High For This

Elizabeth's POV
I sat on the sofa next to strangers who were smoking amongst themselves. I would occasionally talk with them but all they wanted to talk about was about themselves. Which is not my style at all. Astrid and I came in together but later disappeared in the crowd.

I couldn't really find any of the guys. I stood up instantly needing a drink of some sort. Hopefully water. I walked towards the kitchen area. There were a lot of people in there. There was a guy and girl making out on the fridge.

A group of guys there talking amongst themselves ignoring what was happening besides them. I ignored the looks I was receiving from the girls in the corner. I grabbed a red cup and filled it with the punch. I sniffed it a little and instantly closed my eyes of how strong it was. I took a deep breath in and drank it. My throat burned like crazy but I pushed it to the side and took another sip. I opened my eyes and walked out of the kitchen. I stood by the wall and looked at the crowd. The music was blaring intensely, it feels like the whole house was shaking. I took another sip of my drink and watched.

Then a voice spoke.
"You don't seem like this isn't your type of scene?"

I turned around to face a good looking guy. He had curly hair but was buzzed on the sides creating a fade look, beautiful hazel eyes and a nose ring.

"What gave it away..?" I said as I turn to face him.

"Well.. You've been standing here for a while just staring at the crowd. Not talking to anyone." he spoke as he half smiled.

I smiled softly as I looked at the ground, my hair falling on my face. I looked back up and made eye contact with the guy once again.

"Am I close?" he asked as he cocked up an eyebrow. He then reached to take a sip of his drink.

"Hm possibly. Have you been watching me..?" I said taking a sip of my drink as well but still keeping eye contact with him.

"No I uh..-" he stumbled and began rubbing his jaw trying to figure out a response. I began giggling cause him to look at me confused.

"I'm just joking.." I said

He slowly calmed down but cracked a smile and looked at me.

"You are very funny.. Can I know your name?"

"Elizabeth.. You?"

"Damien."

"Nice to meet you Damien. Now tell me how did you come to know this party?" I asked as I drank from my cup once again.

"Well I happen to be friends with the guy whose throwing the party.. You?"

"Same.." I said

"Well do you want to dance..?"

"Sure.." I said leaving my cup on the table.

He grab a hold of my hand and pulled me to the crowd. The song that was playing was upbeat. Coming to a stop Damien turned around and started to dance. I slowly began dancing to the beat. Damien hands made their way to my waist as we continued to dance. The song slowly faded to a Spanish song. Some of the people stopped dancing not knowing how to dance this. But since most of our student body is Latino many knew how to dance this. Some sat down but many still were dancing.
Damien grabbed a hold of my hands and began spinning me. Then stopping me so my back was on his front and continued dancing. I could feel eyes on us but I didn't care finally feeling stress free. Forgetting Harry, the messages, today.

"Oh shit Liz! Fuck it upppp!"

I looked over to see Astrid was with Niall, Louis and Liana who were cheering me on as well. I turn to face Damien in the eyes who was surprisingly keeping up still. He smiled at making me smile back as we continued. The song slowly faded to Big Bank. I grabbed a hold of Damien's hand pulled him out of the dance floor.

"You are and amazing dancer.." Damien said

"You aren-"

"You damn right are a amazing dancer.."

Astrid said as she made her way towards me. She brought her arm around my shoulder and pulled me in. She reeked of weed and vodka. I scrunched up my face in disgust.

"Ugh you reek." I mumbled as swatted her away.

"I do not!" Astrid argued as she pouted

"And your drunk. Has Carlos seen you like this?" I asked worriedly. Even though Carlos was cool with everything he didn't really like the idea that Astrid drinks and smokes at her age. He argues she's too young yet he's been smoking since 9th grade but hey that's him.

"Damienn ma man!"

I turned to face Carlos was giving Damien a 'bro hug'. Once done he faces the Astrid.

"God damn it. You four reek of weed. Let me take a hit" he said

I looked at him in disbelief then started cracking up. Carlos eyes were blood shot red and his breath smelled like a brewery.

"It was Harry's weed.. He's in the back right now" Niall said

My heart dropped at the mentioning of his name.

"Liz?"

"Huh? What?"

"I said if your coming?" Louis asked

"I uh yeah.." I mumbled.

Damien wrapped his arm around my waist and led me. I tried to calm down my heart beat. It's just Harry. I'll just won't talk to him that's all. Yeah you'll do that.


Astrid opened her basement door and walked down. We all followed I was greeted by the smoke of marijuana. I scrunched up my nose at the smell once again. I've never really understood the point of smoking. Like I've tried it before but I've never really got the hype of it.

It was a whole different kind of scene down here than from upstairs.


Coming into view was a couple people. A couch was in the center. Harry came into view sitting in the edge of the sofa smoking out of a pipe. Liam right besides him waiting for his turn. There was a girl right next to him, her hand on his thigh. He let out the smoke and proceeded to pass it to Liam. He looked up and made direct eye contact with me. His eyes flickered to what I wearing to Damien's hand on my waist.
Carlos stepped forward and made his way towards Harry. They did that bro hug as well. Then stepping back.

"Hey man. How have you been?"

"I've been great mate and you?"

"You know same oh bullshit.."

"Still with tha..?"

Carlos shook his head softly. Harry just nodded while pursing hip lips. He licked his lips an spoke.

"Here man, go crazy" Harry spoke handing Carlos something that looked like a pen.

Carlos he nodded his head before putting the thing in his mouth. He pressed the circle thing which lit up. Holding the button he kept his mouth on it. The button flickered four times instantly. Carlos took it out of his mouth and like that a bunch of smoke came out. He coughed a little before passing it to Astrid.

"That's some good shit.." he said

Harry cocked up his eyebrow and nodded. Damien leaned closer to my ear and whispered.

"Want to sit down?"

I nodded my head, just like that Damien grabbed my hand and lead me to the closest sofa. Which happened to be on Harry's left. Damien let me sit down first then he did. I watched how the pen made its way around finally getting to me.
Damien handed me the pen. I was ready to decline when I heard a scoff. I turned my head to face Harry.

"She doesn't smoke. Too much of goody two shoes" he responded smugly


"Harry mate lay off her" Liam responded


"No. Am I wr-"


Before he could finish his sentence I put the thing in between my lips and pressed the button. I held the button and began letting the smoke enter my mouth. The button flashed four times and I stopped. I held it in for a couple seconds before blowing it all out. I passed it to the girl next Harry.

"You know nothing about me Styles." I snarled and laid back.


Harry looked at me with anger.

Damien turned to look at me getting my attention and smiled lazily. I licked my lips and smiled back. I could hear the music blaring from upstairs. I looked around and my eyes landed on Astrid who was smirking at me. I giggled softly seeing her reaction.
She then mouthed. "Are you good?"

I nodded my head up and down slowly. She nodded her head then turned her attention on Niall. The pen soon made its way back to Damien. He gladly took a long hit. I looked at him adoringly. He passed it to me once again. I put it in my mouth once again and sucked. Feeling I couldn't get anymore I passed it to the girl. I let the smoke out slowly.

I felt my body starting to slow down. I was having a hard time trying to focus on everything going on. I would look at Astrid but it would blur out. I closed my eyes and leaned on Damien shoulder trying to calm myself down. I took a deep breath in and let it out. I opened my eyes and still couldn't comprehend on what was happening. I leaned forward to grab a water bottle and drank from it. It helped a little but nothing. I kept on drinking the water then it was gone. I blinked but I didn't feel as good still. I leaned over to Damien.

"I'm going to the bathroom I'll be back.."

He nodded his head and let me pass him. I walked up the stairs trying not to fall. I opened the door leading to the living room. I was greeted with a huge crowd. I looked at the ground and made my way through the crowd. I bumped into a couple guys. They turned to face me ready to start saying shit but seeing it was just me they started to dance with me.

"I'm sorry but I don't want to dance.."

"Come on.. Don't leave" said one stepping in my way.

Another grabbed my butt making me squirm.

"Please. Don't touch me."

Another reached to grab me by the waist.

"Come on. Let me show you a good time.."

I tried pushing the guy a way but I felt my own body betray me. I couldn't exactly comprehend what was happening.

"Please let me go.."

"Come o-"

"Don't you get it. She obviously doesn't want to be with you mate"

I turned around to face Harry, who had his hands into fists. Stepping closer to him.

"Look man. She came on to me." The guy said pushing me forward. I tripped on my feet falling on the floor. Harry knelt down to help me up.

"Are you ok love..?" he asked looking back and forth from my eyes.

"I-uh I don't feel so well.." I mumbled

Harry nodded softly and stood me up. He looked at the guy and said.

"Come near her again and I'll blind you. That's a promise prick"

He then lead me out. I was tripping on my own feet. He then picked me up bridal style and led me out of Astrid's house.

"Wha..-where are you taking me..?"

"Sh, sh,sh.. It's okay.. You need to sober up.."

I slowly nodded my head up and down leaning my head on his chest. I could hear his heartbeat. With that I closed my eyes and let sleep over take my entire body.
