A.N.- So this is the last chapter for the Twelve Nights and it is a preview for my next Story.

White Houses:

Jenny screams out and it's no pose

The only thing that overwhelmed the loud noises exuding from the home was the stench of alcohol. The brunette made sure that she followed behind Maya closely not wanting to get lost in the sea of strangers. Riley had never really been big in the party scene, no matter what she did she always seemed to stick out like a sore thumb while Maya was go with the flow with the concoctions of drinks; she was jealous of her in that way. The crowd seemed to be pressing the two girls closer together as they pushed through which made it impossible to make sure no wandering hands go places they shouldn't.

"Is this great?" Maya shouted competing with the music but not much avail. Her Cheshire grin grew wider as she took in the sights and sounds while Riley's lips twisted downward. She would rather be somewhere quiet and reading a book. Maya had only ever managed to convince her to come to 1-2 parties during their freshman year and that was plenty for her.

"That's not what I would call it," She replied without much gusto. The crowd burst into loud cheers as a girl that had not seen sober for at least an hour had gotten up on the table and started to dance. Riley had been only to a couple of parties, but despite that she had never seen anyone this far gone and wondered if there were drugs in play. Someone should be helping her down and not cheering on this behavior.

"Is anyone going to do something?" Disgust ringing through her voice at the hoots and howls. Maya grabbed a shot off the counter in response.

"Come on Riles, you need to relax," The drink was offered, it took a couple minutes of persistence on behalf of the blonde but the alcohol slid down Riley's throat sending her into a coughing fit. If it was something that she wasn't used to; the burning sensation in her mouth. It was all she needed to have the courage to approach the girl that was dancing on the table, maybe with any luck she would be able to convince her to get down before she got hurt. Before she could even get close a pair of attractive guys stepped in front with dazzling smiles and surely with only certain things on their mind.

"Hey, I haven't I've seen you before in Mr. Robinson's class." Clearly, they were mistaken, but every time Riley went to correct them, the words would not leave her lips. Thankfully her best friend came to her rescue.

"Maybe you have," Maya answered in a flirty manner the boys obviously caught her eye too. Maya was always more comfortable in these kinds of situations, and why wouldn't she be; she grew up to be a knockout. If anyone to ask Riley who was more attractive, she would answer with her best friend's name without hesitation. The edges on the dark-haired boy's lips tweaked up in a smile the cat and mouse game amusing him. The blonde approached Riley not wanting to be left out of the action. He reached out and ran his fingers down her arm, causing a shiver to shoot down the spine.

"Can I get you a drink?" In response, she flinched away from the wandering hand.

"No, I'm fine thank you. We should be going right Maya?" The brunette was hoping that it would be enough for Maya to get the hint. The words fell on deaf ears as something else in the room had caught and paralyzed her attention. Riley's eyebrows narrowed in concern she could tell that something was terribly wrong.

"Maya," the words seemed to bring her back to reality. She turned to the boy that was standing next to her.

"Let's get out of here," There was a certain desperation in her voice that perked Riley's interest. There was something that she was hiding, and Maya never hid things from her.

"What?" She wasn't seriously suggesting that she go anywhere alone with these boys, was she? As she started to walk away she was stopped by a hand grabbing her arm. Blue eyes met her questioning brown ones.

"Not now Riles." She shrugged off the hand and disappeared through the crowd despite the protests. Riley turned back in just enough time to see Josh lip locked with another girl.
