dylanduke25 Anastasia, the term '#mems' is a hashtag, followed by the shortened term for the word memories, it is often used by one who cannot pronounce the word memories.

user11 shes so ugly omfg

user12 i NEED their friend group

THE PURE ARTWORK in front of her could only be described as one thing: the American college experience. It was a scene she was already all to familiar with, having been to one of the senior's parties one too many times over the duration of her first semester at the University of Michigan. The ninth day of the frigid month of December was not only her last day on campus before her, Mark, and Lola left for St. Clair, but it was Sofia's twentieth birthday, and the all too common open floorplan of the senior house was filled with items and liquids that she was just not old enough for yet. But none of that matterd. She was in college, and she wanted to celebrate her second decade of being on Earth with a party. Which was so unlike the calm, mature, collected mother-figure that Anastasia and Lola viewed her as.

It shocked not only them, but the boys that were on FaceTime with the three tipsy girls, who were just having the time of their lives, basking in each other's presence during their time at Sofia's apartment. That was only a week ago, when she said just how badly she wanted to 'not remember' her birthday celebration, and it shocked Anastasia at just how quickly the seniors seemed to put together the biggest fucking rager she had ever seen. Now, it wasn't any Project X ordeal, but the smell of weed was more aparent in the air, and the sea of red solo cups seemed to grow with each passing minute she was at the party.

Sure, she could've already gone home, spent a week alone with her parents before it was the Estapa's and Thompson's time with her, but she chose to stay back. The boy's hadn't taken all their finals yet, and she wanted to spend as much time as possible with them before she wouldn't be able to see them for a wopping three weeks. And plus, it gave her more time to relish in the lazy cuddles she shared with her lover. At the time, he had yet to take his finals, and he was anxious; having called Anastasia multiple times during that slow Sunday morning that she spent at Sofia's apartment.

She was the first to wake up out of the three of them, the sun that teetered on the edge between Autmn and Winter– depending on just how close the star was to the human-inhabitied planet, streaming freely through the patio door of the apartment. The scent of lilac still floating freely in the air from the candle that Sofia had blown out last night. Lola laid curled up on the rug of the living room, her curls surrounding her sleeping features like a halo, soft snores tumbling from her parted lips. Sofia was on the couch that was closest to the kitchen, the faint rising and falling of her body being the only indication that she was entralled in a deep sleep. Empty cans of Mike's Lemonade litered the glass coffee table, and the awful taste of morning breath lingered in Stassie's mouth, letting her know just how much alcohol she consumed last night.

The vibrations of her phone made her tired eyes widen, thinking that it was her mom calling her, asking why she wasn't coming home that weekend. But, she remained thankful to whatever precense wasn't currently wishing upon her downfall, when Ethan's name in her phone appeared on her screen. A small smile tugged at the corners of her swollen lips, that hadn't had the chance to go down, since she just woke up. "Morning," she spoke groggily, rubbing her eyes as she held the phone against her chest so her arm wouldn't grow tired. She had yet to look down at the screen, to see a smiling Ethan, his hair in disarry, as a pair of glasses sit on the bridge of his nose. "Good morning pretty girl," his words earned a grown from the slightly hungover girl, who was quick to turn down the volume; both trying not to wake the two girls that were still sleeping and make her head pound more than it already was. "How'd you sleep?"

Anastasia's heart fluttered at the sight on her screen– she had never seen him in glasses before, and it was quite the sinful view. She couldn't help the small giggle that fell from her lips, "You look hot with glasses," she teased. She watched as his cheeks blushed a faint pink, being quick to run a hand through his unruly hair, that she wanted nothing more than to feel against her skin. But nonetheless, as cheesy as he could be at times, that cocky college boy still peeked through. He shrugged, "Don't like to wear them." Stassie rolled her eyes, a quiet scoff coming from her. "Well you should like to wear them, makes you look sexy," His teeth glinted in the light of what she could only assume was his laptop as he smirked, "Sexy, eh?" He scrunched his nose, a teasing tone to his words. And although he looked like a fucking god as of right now, especially when she was his bare chest, his gold chain laying between his collarbones, looking as if he had just woken up not long before her, a disgusted look contored on her face, "I love you babe, I really do, but why did you call at," she tapped her phone to look at the time, a groan of annoyance coming from the back of her throat, "7:38 am on a Sunday morning?"

Ethan chuckled softly, "Just wanted to see how my pretty girl was doing after last night," he shrgged. She had told him about the girls night she had planned after their final game of that semester, and he couldn't deny the fact that he was a little upset that he wouldn't be falling asleep with her curled into his side that night– especially after they won by such a large margin, and especially after he had scored two goals that game. Both of them being just for her, he told himself in his mind. But, he knew just how important Lola and Sofia was to his girl, and he didn't want to hold her back from spending time with her friends, like she did with him.

She gave him a look, one that he could only read as 'stop stalling'. She was always pissy in the mornings of which hangover occured. "I was gonna ask you to help me study for my finals," He seemed hesistant, bashful, even, asking her for help. Because if there was one thing that Ethan wasn't– was helpless.

Anastasia thought it was the most adorable thing, despite how immorally attractive he looked at the moment, how he came across as shy. Her heart fluttered yet again, and her stomach flipped. It was cute. "Well, I can't come over today but I can give you some tips?" She spoke quietly, careful not to wake up her friends who were still sleeping peacefully in the living room. He nodded, a tight lipped smile on his face. She scrunched her nose at the most adorable sight she had ever seen, "Memorize everything you need to, writing stuff down helps, no matter how much your hand it hurting, writing helps the information stick better than just typing it out. Oh! And also make yourself a Quizlet, the little quizzes they have helps alot with memorization. And take breaks, and avoid getting on your phone, because that will just make you lose track of time and then suddenly, studying doesn't seem so interesting."

Her eyes drifted back to the screen, after she was done giving him her method behind her grades that got her into the university in the first place, only to see that his smile was now so large that the corners of his eyes crinkled, his bare shoulders shaking as he chuckled. A small pout appeared on her lips, as she furrowed her eyebrows, "What?" "You're so fucking cute, Anastasia."

His words now made her the bashful one out of the two. Sure, he had whispered statements worse than that into her ear while she was on the brink of an orgasm, one that he had dragged out of her with his lips brushing her sensitive skin. But something about how he seemed so genuine, so in love with her, even through the screen, had her heart pounding in her chest. She played off the affect he had on her with a playfull eye roll, "You asked for my advice and I provided," She shrugged, biting her lip to contain her smile.

He scrunched his nose yet again, "And I'm so thankful for it,"

The sound of Lola rustling on the ground below her made her eyes widen. "Okay, Lo's about to get up and we're gonna head to Starbucks. I love you," Ethan felt his heart thump in his chest, at the words that he was still not used of hearing fall from her lips. The feeling of uncertainty, and 'what if's wasn't something that laid in the back of his mind, not this time. Not with her. "I love you too, baby."

She was shaken from her thoughts, at the feeling of an arm being slung lazily over her shoulder, followed quickly by a wet kiss being pressed to her cheek. "God, isn't alcohol amazing?' Sofia slurred, a smile on her face that let Anastasia know that she definitely was not sober. She chuckled, her arm quickly snaking around her friend's waist, ensuring she was stable on her feet. "It sure is, Sof," she hummed lazily, the feeling of the herb that she had smoked with Nolan not too long ago making everything around her buzz. She had chosen to stray away from the hard liquor that was being tossed and spilled around that night, knowing that her, Lola, and Mark had an early morning tomorrow. So, she chose the next best option: weed.

Sofia pouted, noticing the lack of what was a cup in her friend's hand. "Then why aren't you drinking?" she questioned, leaning more of her weight against the Freshman girl. "I'm driving back home tomorrow, don't wanna be hungover," Stassie shrugged, her eyes darting along the seemingly endless crowd of people that flooded the senior house, eagerly looking for Luke or somebody of their friend group to take the drunk girl off her hands, letting her enjoy her high. She wasn't used to dealing with intoxicated people, given the fact that she was usually the one who was being taken care of.

She was the top of Luke's curls out the window that showed the back patio, "C'mon let's go say 'hi' to Luke, hm?" Anastasia started leading the two of them out of the kitchen, which was less crowded than the living room, and towards the open back door. "Oh! Luke, I miss him so much," Sofia started her ramble, that she will undoubtedly be embarrassed by the following morning. "You know, he's really good with his hands," she trailed off, giggling to herself behind her cup that she raised up to her lips. Stassie couldn't help but join in on her friend's laughter, knowing just how unlike Sofia she was acting right now.

They stumbled out of the sliding door of the house, the booming music and mindless chatter being muted just slightly, thanks to the brick wall that now separated the strangers that were invited to Sofia's birthday party, and their friend group. "Lukey!" She the drunk girl squealed, her arm leaving Anastasia's shoulders as she raided them above her head excitedly, and made her way to sit down on his lap. She watched as Luke chuckled at her drunken state, pulling her legs up on his legs, with his hand snaking around her waist as she nuzzled her nose into his neck.

Ethan watched his girl with a smile that always seemed to find its way on his lips each time she was around. She looked beautiful– a pair of leggings adorned her long legs, and his sweatshirt hung loosely off her shoulders. She had decided not to dress up for the party that night, saying that she didn't want to be cold that chilled night that seemed to drape over the entire state of Michigan, but to him, she couldn't of looked more adorable.

His heart swelled in his chest when she finally let her eyes land on him, her gaze brightening as she followed Sofia's actions, by placing herself on his lap proudly, and swinging her legs up on Luca's lap who he sat next to. He passed the joint that was once between his fingers to Mark, who also had his girl propped on his lap, who took the rolled bush without protest. Shockingly, Mark was actually letting himself relax during this party, his eyes lidded with the four hits he had already taken.

Ethan tapped his fingers on her thigh, gaining her attention which was scanning everyone who was sat on the back patio furniture; their friends, with nothing but smiles to be seen, and laughter to be heard. "How you doin baby?" he questioned, his eyes grazing over her tanned skin, adoring the way that her freckles were perfectly placed along the bridge of her nose. She smiled cheekily at him, before she leaned in and connected their lips. It wasn't sensual and it wasn't quick, it was perfect. But to him, any feeling of her lips was perfect. "'m doing good. How you doing pretty boy?" She teased, knowing that he wasn't the biggest fan of the nickname. But to him, the disgrace he usually held for the name didn't matter at the moment.

He nodded his head reassuringly, before pecking her lips once more. She turned towards Lola who was sat on Mark's lap, starting a conversation effortlessly, as the boys around them talked about their plans for over break.

Sofia's birthday party was insane but, that didn't matter to any of them. Little did they know, but they all secretly loved being around one another. As much as they all acted like, well, hockey players, the guys were finding themselves finding comfort in the girls that have seemed to sneak their way into their family. Their team.

It was everything he had hoped. Everything that he wished had happened at the party that seemed to be followed by the worst week in his entire life. He felt the feeling of peace being oh, so close, so present, in his life currently. His pretty girl, finally being able to show her off to the team that was like his second family away from Canada. And even through the light, that was so bright he had to squint, darkness would soon make its appearance known yet again.
