A/N: That gif is actually quite weird but Oh My Gawd he is so hot

"Bloody hell!" I screech as I attempt to put on a pair of black stilettos on my feet as fast as I could with one hand on the door, trying to open it.

I really appreciated Apryl's gesture when she invited me to this friend's party. But I just had to, just had to, forget about this until I got a phone call from her, disrupting my afternoon nap, yelling over the phone to get my ass off the bed. I seriously don't think we are that good friends that she would have the privilege to yell at me about what to do. Only special people in my life have that privilege.

And that would be me.

I told her just that, which resulted in her shouting some more over the phone and telling me to shut the hell up and that I am not going to regret coming to this party.

I just sighed and told her to pick me up whenever she wants--only to listen to her squeal for another minute--but on the inside I was a little happy that I had someone apart from Harry who I could  consider a friend here, in this town.

I only had one hour left to shower and quickly change into something party-ish for the night. I picked out a pair of black leather pants along with a black crop top and black stilletos to complete the look. I might as well wear a hood and sell cocaine in the neighbouring alleyway in my all-black attire.

As I was putting on some mascara, I heard my phone beep signalling a message.

From Ape: come down in 5. I'm waitiiing.

I can practically hear her singing the last part making me roll my eyes.

I make my way downstairs and out of the front door not bothering to wait for Harry since he told me he would meet me there as I already messaged him the address I had earlier asked Apryl about, even though she was picking me up.

I'm not even sure if I actually had to ask her about it. That girl just rambles on and on so much that if you divert your attention for five seconds you would probably miss one of her infamous stories.

Now that I think about it, she and Niall couldn't have found a better match for each other. Almost every time that I had the pleasure to have dinner with Niall in one of our family Thanksgiving dinners, he just couldn't stop babbling along with munching on most of the food on the table and he possibly would've eaten all of it if you didn't remind him of the human breed and it's human tendencies.

I don't know how both of them manage to do it but they always, always, have some strange but funny story to tell. Not that I'm complaining because I'm actually quite entertained by it. But when you spend the entire morning and afternoon shopping for a shimmery and sexy--Apryl's words, not mine--dress without even a break to feed your empty stomach with a girl who is talking continuously about how she and her boyfriend were getting frisky in the changing room the last time they were here, you would actually want to strangle yourself with a dress hanger.

Amidst all of her talking she might have told me the address of the house which I thankfully remembered and sent it to Harry.

I see her waving her hands at me from her car window and I make my way towards her and slip in the passenger seat.

"Hey Meg," she says smiling my way as she starts the car.

"Uh,uh. Megan," I correct her as a scowl takes over her features.

"I don't know why you have to correct me every time." She shakes her head.

"I don't know why you have to question me every time. I just don't want people to shorten my name. It feels weird."

She rolls her eyes playfully at me before drawing out an okay.

"You are weird," she chuckles.

I laugh with her.

"True."

~~

As I enter the house, I can see almost the whole town partying here. Red cups thrown here and there. People dancing like there's no tomorrow. And loud techno music playing in the background.

Typical.

Apryl takes my hand and pushes me forward into the scene and grabs a few drinks for us. I don't know what I drink from the cup but it has a sweet, fruity taste to it. She even starts dancing and chatting along with some people who I have no idea about. I just dance along with her just because I had no other choice but to follow her.

One hour passes and I am drunk and dancing. Not the best combination. But I am actually having fun. I'm not one to have absolutely no idea about my surrounding or no coordination with my body parts when I am drunk but that doesn't stop me from stumbling once in a while while walking around. I even caught up with Harry sometime later after I entered this party because Apryl excused herself to meet some friends and forgot about me which I am pretty sure is because of a certain blonde-haired boy who also happens to be her boyfriend.

I eventually found her and went back to dancing with her which we had to stop after a while because we were absolutely exhausted and dumped ourselves on a nearby couch. Suddenly realising that I don't even know who's party this is, I ask her about it.

"I didn't tell you?" She looks at me strangely pouting at the end of her sentence which she does every once in a while ever since she downed her fourth cup of whatever the hell that liquid was.

"No. You just told me about a party and dragged me in here," I say as I look over at her to check she isn't passed out yet.

"It's Dan's birthday party, of course," she tells me like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"What? And you didn't tell me? Who's Dan, anyway? And where is he?" I look around like I'd actually find this Dan guy who I didn't even know about five minutes ago.

"Shh...shh. Slow down. Slow down. I thought you already met him."

"Duh. I didn't. Now introduce us. He sounds like a hot guy." I say grinning at her.

She snorts. "Oh, believe me. He is. Like really hot. Also, his body..." She almost swoons.

She is interrupted by a familiar voice which makes her eyes widen a bit. "Hey babe." Niall makes an entry almost as if he could sense her drooling over Dan.

"Hey Ni," she smiles sweetly at him and pecks him on the cheek.

Just after an enthusiastic "Apryl! Nice to see you," from Niall they immediately forget about me and get all mushy so I get up to grab another drink.

Just as I start approaching the counter, I am blocked by someone as I almost stumble back to the floor with the force but am stopped by a pair of arms circling around my shoulder.

"Woah. Slow down there."

As I look up I'm met with a pair of light brown eyes filled with concern. He definitely is well built because I can almost see his muscles as his arms support me before I am back to earth, both literally and metaphorically.

"You okay?" He asks smiling softly at me drawing my attention to his pink lips before I find myself nodding.

"Yeah. Yeah. All good," I try to maintain a cool attitude. "I just need some more drinks to survive this party." I say as I start making my way towards my destination and he walks behind me and takes a seat next to me.

"Why, is it so bad?" He says as he himself gulps down the fruity liquid which I still don't know the name of.

"Not necessarily. Its just that my friend whom I came here with is getting all touchy-feely with her boyfriend and my best friend, he is nowhere to be seen. And, to top it all up, I didn't even know who's party this was ten minutes ago. I haven't even seen this Dan guy.

He looks over at me funnily as if he is trying to hold back his laughter but listens to me anyway. I grab another red cup and take a sip. At this point, I don't even know if I'm making sense but I continue nevertheless.

"My friend basically just told me he was really hot. And something about his body. Even his name sounds hot. Don't you think?"

I look over at him and he immediately raises his eyebrows and nods his head.

"Oh, yeah. Totally."

"Yup. I don't even know him, you know. And here I am drinking all of his alcohol. I even ate some chips or something a while earlier. Dunno. Don't remember."

I start tapping my fingers on the counter and he licks his lips after drinking, drawing my attention yet again.

"Who's this friend of yours?" He asks making me look back in his eyes to find he is already staring at me with a hint of a smirk on his face.

If he keeps doing this, he is going to be the death of me.

"Apryl. You might know her. She has brown hair. A little shorter than me. Never keeping her mouth shut."

"Sounds familiar. Yeah," he smiles at me and I divert my eyes to look down at all the red cups on the counter.

"Why is it always red? Why not yellow or-or black or anything?" I frown.

At first he looks confused but then he looks at the cups and starts laughing, shaking his head.

"Actually, I have no idea. Haven't really noticed before." He shrugs.

"You don't talk much, do you? Actually, I don't too. It's just the alcohol talking. I hope you're not getting bored?"

"Oh,no. No. You are actually quite funny with all that alcohol talking." He chuckles looking at me and I start laughing along with him. Maybe a bit more than necessary but when I look at him he's staring at me with a hint of a smile on those pink lips, I start laughing all over again.

"I actually ne--"

I don't get to finish my sentence because what he does next makes my stomach do cartwheels and back flips as he leans towards me presses his lips against mine.

Just a peck. Nothing less. Nothing more. But it is enough to make me feel a thousand things in the matter of a second.

Suddenly feeling like I can't breathe anymore I speak the first thing that comes to my mind.

"I, uh, um, I-I should probably go. Apryl must be waiting for me." Even though I don't want to leave, I also don't want to make it more embarrassing as I'm pretty sure my cheeks are the colour of the cups we were just talking about.

He just smiles at me with an amused expression on his face as he nods his head.

"Sure. I was gonna get back to my friends as well."

I thank the gods above as we don't talk about it anymore and he starts to get up from his seat to head back. But I calk back to him.

"Hey, I never got your name. I'm Megan, by the way." I feel stupid for not asking this before but he just smirks my way as if he knew about it all along.

"Dan."

He couldn't be, could he?

I open my mouth to say something but nothing comes out. I must look like a deer caught in headlights with my wide eyes and open mouth.

Again that smirk is all I need to know my suspicions are correct as his smirk changes into a grin as he continues.

"It was nice meeting you, Megan."

And then he turns around and walks away until I couldn't see him anymore.
