"I can't believe I agreed to come to a part with you." I said.
"Why not? I'm a pretty cool guy." Efrom said.
"I know. It just feels weird not having Nick with me." I told him.
"Does he know you are here?" He asked me.
"Yeah." I told him.
"Then what is the big deal? Come on, I'll get you a drink." He said. I followed him to a small bar under the patio roof on the deck. There were people everywhere! The night was beautiful, and some people were even swimming in the pool.
"Whose house is this again?" I asked him after he handed me a drink.
"It's Will Peterson's parents house. Do you remember him?" He asked. I shook my head no.
"Uh...played football. Dated Mindy on the cheer squad." He said.
"I remember! How is Mindy? I havn't seen her since graduation!" I asked.
"I don't know. Her and Will broke up not long after highschool, and I only know Will." He said.
"Oh. Damn." I told him.
"Sorry." He said, and I giggled.
"It's okay." I told him. I looked to my left and nearly dropped my drink.
"What is it?" Efrom asked me.
"MY SISTER!" I said.
"Oh cool! Where?" He asked.
"She isn't old enough to be here!" I said.
"You never went to a party when you were that age? Don't lie, I remember you at more then one." He said.
"I guess you are right. It feels weird to see her here though." I said.
"She's with a pretty decent looking guy. I'm sure she is fine." He said. I looked next to her and she was with James.
"I guess so." I told him. I couldn't stop looking at her though.
"Let's go inside. You are way too distracted." Efrom said, and took my hand. He lead me inside the house. There were even more people inside. We were turning a corner and ran into a guy, accidently making him drop his drink.
"I'm so sorry!" I said, bending down to pick up his beer bottle.
"Sam? What are you doing here?" I knew the voice right away.
"Johnny?" I asked, standing up and handing him his half spilled beer bottle.
"Yeah." He said.
"This is an old friend from Highschool. Efrom." I told him. "Efrom, this is my..uh..friend Johnny."
"Nice to meet you." Efrom said, shaking Johnny's hand.
"Same. Does Nick know you?" Johnny asked.
"Yeah. Not well though." Efrom said.
"Johnny, Nick knows I'm here Efrom. Why do you care anyway?" I asked, a little more bitter then I had meant to.
"Sorry. See you around." Johnny said, and walked off before I could say anything else to him.
"What was that about?" Efrom asked.
"I used to date him." I told him.
"When you were in New York?" He asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"He has an accent." He said.
"Yeah. Can we talk about something else?" I asked.
"Sure we can." He said. We walked to the living room and sat down on the couch to talk. We talked for a while and started getting tired.
"Wanna head home?" He asked me.
"Yeah. I'm pretty beat." I told him.
"Come on, lets go." He said. We walked past a hallway and I noticed a couple making out in the corner. I recognized Johnny and felt jealous, but tried to ignore it and keep walking. I looked down and recognized the shoes the girl was wearing. They were my shoes.
"ANNA!" I shouted. Both her and Johnny jumped.
"Oh shit." They both said at the same time. I didn't even know what to say. We all just stood there staring at each other for a minute.
"Aren't you here with James?" I asked her.
"No. We broke up." She said.
"Johhny she is SEVENTEEN!" I shouted.
"And I'm 19." He said. "You are two years older then me and we dated."
"So!" I said.
"We don't have sex or anything. Making out is legal." Anna said.
"But why HIM?" I yelled at her. "WHY HER?" I shouted a Johnny.
"Hey. Let's just get home." Efrom said to me, pulling my arm. I started crying and ran outside with him. He drove me home and I went straight to my room and tried to call Nick. He didn't answer.
