Human

Song for the chapter-
Prayers by Kid Cudi


A week has gone by from my apology to Harry, and so far things are working out just fine. Everyone has carried on, nothing out of the ordinary. Easton continued to drive me school, my classes were picking up speed at a steady pace, and I was allowed lots of down time. Everything just seemed to go by, nothing spectacular and exciting, just a boring school routine. Life moved on, every night included with a little drama and laughs but nothing too crazy.

Tonight, however, we are supposed to have a "fun" night. Meaning Harry loosening up enough to offer us some fun activities. Basically, I was going to be ending out either by the pool table, or the pool itself. . But I was excited, it's not like I locked myself away from everyone, but there hasn't been any memorable activities recently. So hopefully this would end well.

"Paris! What are you wearing tonight?" Casper stormed through my front door into my living room.

"Whatever I want." I shrugged and flipped though the channels on my Tv.

"Whatever?" Casper gasped.

"What? We are staying here, I'll wear whatever I want."

"Damn you're innocent. This is the time where you can dress sexy and show off. Sure, everyone here has seen each other when we go out, but with all the nerves they can't focus on you. Make them want you, lead them on a little, and when you need them to do a little dirty work, it's done." Casper pointed it out like it was obvious.

I put my arms up in surrender. "Whoa, sorry I don't like manipulating people, so I'm going yo stick with my method."

"Have fun cleaning up the mess tomorrow." Casper smirked and skipped out.

Grumbling to myself, I took a short stroll to my room. I was defiantly not going to seduce the guys here, and never planned on doing so. The guys here are my friends, except Harry. We have some to resolve before I consider him a friend. Lazily jumbling through clothes and making a mess, I found a something suitable for me. Black leggings, a grey and blue galaxy raglan tee, and some white converse. Casual, but more of my style.

"Paris, you coming down?" Lou pounded on my door.

"Yeah, give me a second." I pulled my hair back into a messy pony.

"I need a partner for beer pong so you're playing, no exceptions." Lou's gripped my arm and dragged me to our elevator.

"No way, I'm not getting drunk tonight." I dug my heals into the ground.

"You only get drunk if you lose." Lou reminded.

"My point exactly."

"Whatever, tonight we are getting loose and having fun!"

And that's when it all began, my night of disasters.

Two hours later...

It's been 120 something minutes of playfully teasing Niall after a few drinks, and I feel great. I'm not too intoxicated where everything is amaze because you are buzzed, I've actually been having a great time. Whatever was creating distance between Niall and I before was now history, we were back to being inseparable. So far we've played three games of pool, all of which I have won, and two intense games of poker, those however I was not fortunate enough to win.

"Hey Easton, let's go play a game!" I stumbled over the couch to Easton by the doorframe.

"Whoa, Paris, I think you need to stop drinking." Easton held me steady.

"I haven't had a drink, I'm just naturally this clumsy." I let myself loose from Easton's grip. "You on the other hand, need a drink, I think something's gotten into you. You know damn well that I trip over my fret for no reason." I giggled, the sugar from all that candy I've had really is going to my head.

"I don't drink, but I am going to make a quick run to the liquor store. Wanna go for a ride?" Easton twirled his keys around his finger.

"Nah, I challenged Niall in Twister, hopefully he's not as bad as you." I nudged Easton.

"Excuse me, but I have won every game we've played."

"You live a life of lies." I teased.

"Ha, not that's a lie. I am an open book, and if I'm closed up, you could probably find out what's wrong with my book."

"You may be right, but I'm stubborn, so you're wrong." I skipped away to join Niall in the cafeteria.
I knew Easton was rolling his eyes at me, we have this special type of connect where we can literally tell what each other are doing. It's one skill I am pleased to have.

"You ready to lose?" I strut into the cafeteria where Niall had laid out the game.

"Bring it bitch." Niall started he game up.

About forty five minutes later Niall and I were in the midst of our third and finally game. I have to admit, Niall is very good at being flexible. He's defiantly better than Easton.

"Right foot blue." The announcer called out. Currently we were positioned with our hands over lapping and my leg nearly straddling Niall. Awkward, would be an understatement.

"Fuck!" A rugged voice echoed through the cafeteria.

"Niall, Paris, did you hear?" A random girl raced in, nearly speechless after looking at our position.

"What?" Niall whined after falling, allowing me to win the championship game.

"Easton got in an accident." The girl cried out before sprinting out of the room, leaving Niall and I dumbfounded and following her closely behind.

Notes

Just left you with a short update. I may or may not update later tonight, hopefully this will get you thinking. That's all, I tried to update this early today because we had a snow day today (Minnesota probs), but there were issues so we'll see on the other update.
