Upon appearing at the party, the first thing Pia noticed was the loud music. She could hear it from the next street where Parth pulled over due to lack of parking space. Pia tried asking Parth about this morning events but to her dismay, her stubborn twin refused to open up. No matter what she asked, the only reply she got was 'Hmm'. Her stupid brother disappeared into the crowd as soon as he spotted his equally stupid friends.

Giving up on Parth, Pia checked around while slowly making her way to Aarav's huge mansion. There was no sign of Riian following her. There were no shadows behind the trees, there were no shady cars around, there were no people in black suits following her. She opened the back cover of her phone to check if there was any foreign object there that could track her.

Years of dealing with Riian had made Pia cautious. Switching on the phone, she called Riian's number once just to make sure.

On the third ring, Riian picked up.

"I have reached the party. Where are you?" Pia pressed her ears tightly across the smartphone screen, trying to listen to the background sounds. To her utter surprise the music from Aarav's house couldn't be heard from Riian's side. Bingo!

"I am on my way to a meeting." Riian replied.

Lies.

"Enjoy yourself at the party, sister." Riian continued.

Lies again.

"I will wait for you guys at home. Don't drink too much, okay."

In reality, Riian was monitoring Pia's location through the street's CCTV cameras of the neighbouring areas. Riian had been doing this for years. Tweaking into the street's security system was child's play for him.

Poor Pia heaved a sigh of relief, thinking her brother had finally changed for good. "Alright. I will be back within time. See ya Riian."

"Take care Pia."

"I will."

Clicking her phone shut, Pia jumped overjoyed. Her stalkerish elder brother was not here. Parth was busy with friends. And Aarav was just a few steps away. Pia felt it was her lucky day. The party was in full swing by the time Pia entered. Glasses of whisky were everywhere. Members of the school's team were dancing like crazy. Bits of Pizza, meatballs, empty glasses, beer bottles, everything littered around. The party hadn't even reached its peak and Pia's brand new stilettos already made contact with some used condoms. And her tight skirt didn't make it any easier to bend down and get rid of the little plastic.

Leave it to teenagers to turn any place into their personal dump.

"Nice dress P," one of the juniors commented upon seeing Pia. "Nice ass too!" his friend commented.

Pia quickly straightened up. Let the condom be there.

"Where did you buy that dress?" someone else asked.

"Man! You look even more beautiful today."

"Pia, please be my girlfriend!"

"Ooh! Sexy!" The soccer team captain winked at Pia which made her shrug. His name was Jai. Getting all the sudden attention from random people started to get on her nerves. Pia wasn't even a few steps inside and look at all these people, they were already gathering around her like flies. Her eyes swivelled around for the one person she had been waiting to meet.

A classmate of Pia shoved a beer bottle into her hand. "Drink!"

Accepting the beer, she pretended to sip it. Getting drunk was the last thing on her to-do list. Glancing around, there was still no sign of Aarav. Before Pia could take another step forward, some more of her classmates appeared encouraging her to drink.

Seeing her beer bottle empty, the same guy who earlier winked suddenly said 'CHUG'. Hearing his disparaging remark, Pia flipped him off. Her middle finger was enough to shut Jai's mouth.

However the rest of the crowd didn't feel the same. Within few seconds, everyone started chanting chug. 'You piece of shit' Pia mumbled to herself as more people joined to watch the show. Her glare seemed to have little to no effect on the soccer team's captain now.

Rather Jai encouraged everyone to place bets. To her horror, Pia's friends started pulling up a wooden table and lined up six giant beer glasses. Pia looked around nervously as beads of sweat started to form on her forehead. Her tiny frame was completely surrounded. What did I get myself into. Pia's concern was evident on her face. Drinking one beer bottle was one thing but six giant glasses at the same time was a completely different story.

"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!" everyone chanted.

For the first time, Pia wished that Riian was around. She could practically hear Aiza's voice in her head, "You only remember your family when you are in trouble."

Having no way out of her current circumstance, Pia stood there half-heartedly. "I am going to kill you Jai. Wait and watch," Pia hissed in her mind. Putting her bag aside and slipping out of her stilettos, she decided to make a run for it by climbing on the table.

As everyone cheered for her, one familiar face appeared unannounced. The one person she had been longing to see. Aarav!

"Hey senior." Pia's voice had a ring of melody to it.

"Hey Junior, are you sure you want to do this?" A grin broke out on Aarav's handsome face. He was out in the backyard smoking with his friends when the commotion inside asked for his attention. Aarav was quite amused to see Pia taking on a beer challenge. Who would have thought his hot junior was this wild.

Pia's mouth hung open as she absorbed Aarav's features. Aarav was really the perfect example of fine male physique. The way his leather jackets and ripped jeans hugged his slender body made his pale white skin glow under the dim light. Immediately Pia's mind got busy with dirty thoughts.

"You are the coolest chick I have ever met Pia." Aarav complimented earning a blush from Pia.

'You are not too bad yourself,' she wanted to say but someone else was too busy spoiling her fun.

"If Pia could finish all six, then Aarav will kiss Pia," Jim, the one person who started all this, yelled in his hoarse voice. Just like a flock of sheep, the rest followed suit and started chanting 'Chug and Kiss.'

Aarav's face turned a bright shade of pink. Leaning over, Aarav whispered into his junior's ear, "If you can finish even one, I will do what Jim said."

If it was possible to blush any harder, then Pia's face was doing it. Her body felt hot as the words left Aarav's mouth. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Has my time finally come?"

Pia's eyes looked dazed. The glasses of beer didn't look daunting anymore. Instead they looked like the best looking glasses she had ever laid eyes on. Pia chuckled at how she was planning to run away just seconds ago.

"You ready!" Jai asked from the other side of the table.

"READY!" Pia was more than excited. As her hands held up the first glass, the frothy foam slanted to one side. With that she closed her eyes.

Here goes nothing!
