In which Rose encounters a party that is too wild for her

Rose stood on the balcony of outside of the flat she shared with her mother. The crisp night air was cool and refreshing after the crowded confines of the flat and the rowdy chatter of the guests.

Why were there guests in their flat, you ask? It was Rose's mother Jackie Tyler's birthday. Jackie had invited most—if not all—of her friends.

It had turned out to be a really great party. Well, it had been a great party, until he showed up. Rose had locked him in the bathroom because she didn't want him wandering in and embarrassing her.

But as fate would have it, one of the women had to use the bathroom and when she tried the door and found it locked, she took her hairpin and deftly picked the lock. When she saw a man sitting on the sink, looking out into space, she let out a surprised shriek. The man, startled, stared at her as if she was some sort of alien from outer space. Then he saw the open door.

With a "Oh, sorry, pardon me, madam" and a sweeping but slightly mocking bow, he leapt off the sink and, to Rose's mortification, stalked out as if nothing unusual had happened and joined the party.

And, then…Well, the party had become way too wild for Rose's liking.

After a few drinks, tongues had been loosened, and wild stories had been told, getting more and more nonsensical as more and more alcohol was consumed.

Rose had snuck out, unnoticed by the others, who were either too drunk to care or too absorbed in what they were doing to watch Rose.

Rose could still hear the raucous voices of the partygoers and decided to wait awhile longer before going back in.

She lay on her back looking up at the star-scudded sky. The sweet scents of hibiscus, columbine, primrose, and other flowers Rose couldn't identify wafted into her nostrils. She closed her eyes, a contented smile playing on her lips.
