Chapter 8

"Are you going to the party tonight? Because you really should. You seem really down lately. I know, I know you don't want to talk about, but maybe going well get your mind off whatever is bothering you." Chris sat reading the text message he received from Ashley.

"Yeah... maybe you are right."

"So is that a yes?"

"Yeah, see you there." Chris smiled setting his phone down. How many days had passed since Josh and Mike clashed? Chris stood up from his chair he walked over looking outside his window.

"You're mine!" Josh's voice echoed.

"I wish I believed you…" Mike's voice lapped in. Chris closed his eyes sighing. No, no more thinking. Thinking only brought pain and confusion. The time he had away from both was a good thing, it gave him time to think of what he wanted. Chris walked to his bed laying down.

"This party better help…" He told himself.

Chris sat alone in the bench outside while the music played, the house was filled with people partying. Chris looked up at the night sky admiring the view of the stars.

"There you are!" The voice exclaimed. Chris looked back to see Ashley smiling at him.

"Hey…" He greeted as she sat down next to him.

"Having fun?" She asked trying to get him to open him up.

"Uh yeah." Chris replied clapping his hands together entwining his fingers.

"Chris, you can talk-"

"How about drinks!" Chris smiled cutting her off.

"Uh s-sure, why not?" Ash smiled as she followed Chris back into the house. Chris and Ash gathered at the table where shots were being done.

"Woo!" The blonde girl screamed throwing her arms up in the air.

"Jess?" Chris asked. The blonde turned around smiling.

"Welcome to my party!" She greeted walking away from the shot table. Yup she was drunk already.

"She looks like she's having fun." Ash pointed out.

"Well what are we waiting for?" Chris smiled grabbing the two shot glasses handing one to Ash. Both downed the hard liquor, and both made a face to feel it burn down their throat.

"Oh my God!" Ash laughed trying to endure the feeling.

"Yeah! That hit the spot!" Chris smiled wiping his mouth clean grabbing another shot. Hours passed and both were now smashed. Everything around was spinning and Chris was enjoying the high. This is what he wanted a night where he could forget his troubles. A night without Josh or Mike or at least that's what he wanted.

"Josh!" Jess smiled walking over to Josh.

"Hey Jess." Josh greeted forcing a smile as she threw her arms around him catching him off guard.

"Glad you could come!" She smiled hanging off of him.

"I see you've been at it for a while now." He replied trying to pull her off of him.

"Come, let's get a nice cool beer in that hand of yours!" Jess smiled leading him into the kitchen for a drink. Once in the kitchen it was chill everyone else was where the music was playing.

"Here." Jess smiled holding a drink for him. Josh took the drink popping it open taking a sip.

"So, tell me Josh…" Jess smiled looking him up and down while playing with a blonde lock of her hair.

"Are you seeing anyone at the moment?" She asked. Josh lowered his gaze. Was he still was Chris? Did Chris still want him after what he did? Josh had kept his distance from Chris giving him his space. Josh cleared his throat looking up to see Jess approaching him having unbuttoned her shirt exposing her pink bra.

"What are you doing?!" Josh asked looking away. Jess smiled draping her arms around him.

"Hehe, I know you like me." Jess grinned.

"That's actually debatable!" Josh replied grabbing her arms trying to pull them off.

"Excuse me?" She asked a little annoyed. The door opened both looked over. Chris stood looking at the two he was a little unsteady using the door for support.

"Josh…?"

"Shit! Chris, no wait!" Josh yelled as Chris turned and left.

"Chris!" Josh yelled out chasing after him.

"Where are you going?!" Jess asked stopping him from leaving.

"Let go of me you tramp!" Josh replied jerking his arm free.

"What!?"

Chris made his way out of the house with tears streaming down his face. This was his fault, he had lost Josh over something that should have never been, and now he was in the arms of someone else. Jessica for the matter. Chris began to wonder though, while together did Josh ever even come to care for him at all? Had he even wanted to be with Chris in the first place? Something now Chris was going to have to live with. Chris ran he was outside now, no sign of Josh. Good. Chris kept running stepping into the road too distracted with the pain in his chest he forget to look for cars. Chris gasped looking over to see the bright light coming at him. Chris shut his eyes was he going to die right here right now? What a shitty way to go out.
