Big 80s Party
Hailee's POV:
March 2022
A few hours before the party, I see myself in my NYC apartment getting ready to go to the party and having a chat with my friend Greer
Greer: So?
Hailee: So what?
Greer: This Y/N guy...what did you think of him?
Hailee: He's cool, charming, witty and confident-
Greer: And his family is crazy rich.
I give her an "are you serious look"
Greer: What?
She laughs
Greer: I just did a quick background check on him.
Hailee: And by background check do you mean his Wikipedia page?
Greer: Just look.
She passed me her phone with Y/N's wikipedia page
Greer: He's got Business and Law degrees. All from Harvard. See? More than just a pretty face.
Two degrees? All from Harvard? Jesus...he's much more than I thought.
Not all F1 drivers have that much time to focus on an academic lifestyle
I keep scrolling the Wikipedia page while she talks to me about the details
Greer: Son of former corporate lawyer and now billionaire Harvey Specter...he's Gordon Gekko levels of rich. Racing career and yadda-yadda. Karate national champion, Harvard Karate Club. Martial Arts expertise, Boxing expertise. Yeah...there's a lot of stuff there. He even posed for Men's Health Magazine.
Hailee: He what?
Greer: It's very recent.
She takes the phone from my hand and searches for the magazine which Y/N posed for
And Ho-ly Shit!
Hailee: Whoa! He's jacked!
I then look some more into his Wikipedia page and see a topic of controversies by Y/N's part
I click on it and it shows that he was involved in a problem with one Darcy Pierce
Hailee: Who's Darcy Pierce?
Greer: She's his ex-girlfriend. Her father basically owns the New York Times.
Hailee: And what's the controversy?
Greer: She cheated on Y/N right after he got into a heated argument with her father. And by the way, did he at least told someone to go with him?
Hailee: I'm sure he did, don't worry.
I get dressed and wait so we can go to the party
Y/N's POV:
I'm in the penthouse getting ready to go to the party with Liam while Caroline, my tailor and hairdresser is giving the finishing touches to my hair for it to look like Sonny Crockett's hairstyle in the 80s
When she's done, I go to meet Liam in my living room, he's wearing a double-breasted suit and a tie while I'm wearing an all-white suit with a cyan shirt
Liam: Don't you look nice.
Y/N: Thanks, I know.
Liam: I just don't get it. Why are you going as the main character while I'm going as number two?
Y/N: Tubbs isn't number two, Liam.
Liam: I'm just saying I could have been Magnum P.I
Y/N: Yeah, go to a party wearing a flowered shirt and a baseball cap instead of a thousand-dollar suit.
Caroline: Okay boys, enough talking. It's picture time.
She takes a picture of us for Instagram
We then leave the apartment and get in the car while Ray drives us there
We arrive in the club and see lots of people pulling off iconic 80s looks. The Breakfast Club, Back To The Future, Madonna, Top Gun, Footloose. I even saw some girls dressed as Princess Diana.
A remix of "Blue Monday" is playing on the speakers

I then see Hailee in one of the club's booths with a friend and they're both looking great with their clothes and Hailee looking amazing with her new curly hair
We walk up to them
Hailee: Wow...you look great
She gets up and kisses my cheek and I kiss hers
Y/N: Thanks, so do you. Ladies, this is Li-
Hailee's friend then cuts me off
Greer: Liam?!
Liam's eyes widen
Liam: Greer?!
Y/N: You two know each other?
Hailee: Take a seat, guys.
We sit around the table and Liam and Greer keep looking into each other's eyes
Hailee: So...how did you guys meet?
Liam: Well, I was in LA for a while because my mom took me there for one of her business trips. And I was at a friend's birthday party when I met Greer.
Y/N: When was that, exactly?
Greer: Last Year. Liam here was actually very nice in LA. Everyone that knew him there liked him in his short time there.
Liam: Not everyone, apparently.
Liam smirks
Y/N: Am I missing something here?
Hailee: Yeah, I'm getting kinda confused here.
Greer: I'm going to the bar...
She then storms off and leaves the booth
But just as Hailee was about to get up, Liam interrupts her and offers to talk to Greer
Liam: Let me talk to her
Third Person POV:
Greer and Liam left Hailee and Y/N by themselves in the booth
Y/N: Any idea what that was about?
Hailee: I'm just as lost as you.
Y/N: So, besides the party. What brings you to New York?
Hailee: I'm kinda on vacation.
Y/N: Does that word even exists in La La Land?
Y/N jokes and she laughs
Y/N: You want a drink?
Hailee: Sure.
Y/N then calls one of the waiters
Waiter: What can I get you tonight, sir?
Y/N: Vodka Martini, please. Olive for the lady and lemon zest for me.
Waiter: Understood, sir
Their booth was upstairs, which it meant they could see the bar from above
They see Liam and Greer by the bar
Liam then approaches Greer
Liam: Whiskey on the rocks, please.
He told the bartender before handing him a ten dollar bill
Greer: What do you want, Liam?
Liam: Look...I'm sorry, okay? I should have called you but I didn't.
Greer: You still wouldn't have called me if we hadn't seen each other tonight.
Liam: I don't get it. Why are you mad at me? We had a good thing in LA, yeah. But you knew I had to come back to New York. You told me you didn't want anything serious.
Greer: I lied, Liam.
Liam: What?
Greer: I spent the entire last year regretting this decision. And I was expecting you to fight it, but you didn't.
Liam scoffs
Liam: I guess we're both liars, then.
He gave her a smug look and chuckled
Greer: What do you mean?
Liam: I told you I was cool with you not wanting anything serious. Well...I wasn't. And the reason why I didn't call you was that I was afraid. I still...think about us.
Greer: Me too.
Their faces get closer and they share a kiss
From upstairs, Hailee and Y/N were watching Liam and Greer kiss and then leave the club
Y/N: That was surprisingly fast.
Hailee: That's what she said.
Y/N's eyes widen and he looks at Hailee while laughing after her The Office reference
Hailee: You...wanna dance?
Y/N chugs his martini
Y/N: Sure. But I'm a terrible dancer.
They head off to the dance floor and dance with each other by the sound of Prince's "Electric Chair" playing
I saw your friend first
That's who I danced with
All the time I was watchin' youThe music rocked us
Our eyes locked-thus
Makin' us see a trippy picture shooOh, if a man is considered guilty
For what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair
For all my future crimes, oh
https://youtu.be/kIjZwhHuB5s
After a couple of minutes, Y/N and Hailee leave the club
Hailee: You're a great dancer.
Y/N: You're way better.
Both of them were much looser because of the alcohol
As they were talking, Y/N notices a small puppy crossing the street and a car coming straight towards it
Y/N: Oh shit!
He grabs the puppy, but gets run over by the car
Y/N then tucks his body in order to protect the dog and rolls over
Hailee: Y/N?! Oh my God! Are you okay?
Y/N: Fuck! My suit! He fucked up my suit! This shit costed ten thousand dollars, you asshole!
He spits some blood
The driver that hit Y/N gets out of his car
Driver: What the fuck, man?! You have a deathwish or something?
Y/N: You almost killed a dog, you blind bastard.
Driver: If my car got damaged, I swear to God...
Y/N: You'll do what, huh?
Y/N raised his voice at the angry man
Y/N: I'm gonna give you a chance to get out of here with 200 dollars and your face intact. Is that a good deal?
Driver: Whatever, man.
Y/N then takes his wallet and gives a couple of bills to the man
Y/N: Now fuck off.
After the whole shenanigan with the driver, Y/N calls Ray to pick him up
Ray: Y/N, are you okay? Your face is-
Y/N: I'm fine, Ray. Just take me home.
Hailee: What do we do with the dog?
Y/N: I'll take him.
Ray drives off to Y/N's Penthouse
Meanwhile, in the penthouse, Liam and Greer are on the couch enjoying some wine
Greer: Are you sure Y/N won't mind us drinking his wine?
Liam: He's more of a scotch guy. I'm sure he won't mind.
He took a sip of the wine and and got up from the couch, heading to Y/N's record collection
Greer: Now, I think he would mind if you touched one of his records.
He shows one of them to Greer
Liam: Look at this...Barry White. This album is older than both of us. Great for make out sessions, though.
Liam puts the vynil disc in the record player as "Let The Music Play" starts playing
Liam: My friend has some great music taste. Now...where were we?
Liam was about to kiss Greer when he hears the door to the penthouse opening and sees a bruised Y/N with Hailee and a Black German Shepherd puppy
Liam: Whoa...you look awful. What happened?
Y/N: It's a long...are you listening to one of my records?
Liam: No?
Y/N: Liam, I swear to God, if I wasn't in this state right now, I'd slap you.
Hailee: Boys! Enough. Greer, can you and Liam give the dog a quick bath?
Greer: Sure.
Hailee takes Y/N upstairs to his bedroom to patch him up.
Hailee: Do you have a first aid kit somewhere?
Y/N: Bathroom. First drawer
She gets in the bathroom and gets amazed by it
She picks up the first aid kit and starts patching Y/N up
Hailee: Keep your head up. Why did you do that?
Y/N: I saw a dog crossing the street and a car coming to run him over...maybe the alcohol was making my decisions there.
Hailee finishes patching him up
Hailee: All done. You can take a bath now.
Y/N goes to take a bath and when he gets out of the bathroom, he sees Hailee wearing one of his Knicks jerseys and his sweatpants
Hailee: I got some clothes from your closet. Hope you don't mind.
Y/N: Oh...it's fine.
He smiled at her, thinking how cute she looked in that jersey
Y/N: I mean...LA girl wearing a Knicks jersey feels kinda off for me, but it's cool.
She laughs
Hailee: I was planning on returning to my place , but I don't think Greer would want that.
Y/N: I won't mind if you sleep here, Hailee.
Hailee: Are you sure?
Y/N: A hundred percent.
Y/N then goes downstairs to get the dog
There, he sees Liam and Greer making out on the couch
Y/N: Liam, for fuck's sake. I know this isn't your home, but you have a room. Where's the dog?
Greer: Right there.
She points to a cushion and he sees that the dog is asleep on top of it
He picks up the puppy and goes to his room
When he gets therem he sees that Hailee had already fallen asleep on the bed
Y/N takes off his cardigan and puts it on the ground for it to be like a bed for the puppy he had just taken in
After that, he lies carefully on the bed to not wake Hailee up
He shares the bed with her and goes to sleep, some parts of his body still aching from the accident
