"Adriana!" Mom repeats for about the hundredth time

"Matty said he'd do it for me!" She scoffs

"I don't give a damn about what Matteo said, it's your turn" Mom calls out from downstairs

"Lo juro por Dios" My sister mutters before walking out the room annoyed

-I swear to God-

"Santi be my Adriana whilst she washes up, one or two" I ask him

He assesses both of the dresses laid before us on Adriana's bed. There's number one, glitter from head to toe and then there's number two, plain black. I'm leaning towards the black because I feel like it would suit me more, and besides Adriana would look good in the gold dress

"Adri doesn't have the boobs to wear the second one" Santi says

"Be more disgusting would you" I mutter sarcastically before picking up the black dress

"You know it, I know it, Adri knows it" He replies whilst scrolling through his phone

"I'll be out the shower in ten"

-CARTER-
"What did coach say to you after school yesterday" Aaron asks as he tosses a ball into the air and catches it

I put on a white tee, "Nothing, just that I have a few more warnings"

He sits up, "Wait seriously?" I glance back at him for a second

"Dude you gotta turn the anger down a notch, that means not fighting someone at every moment necessary. Ignore whatever shit they say" Aaron says seriously

I spray myself before picking up my sneakers, "Got it Mom"

"Your welcome-.... How's things with Eliza"

I shrug, "Fine, although I don't really know why we're discussing her"

Aaron snorts, "You guys have been fuck buddies for ages and not once have I seen her come over"

Nobody from school comes over, Eliza's never been over either and I prefer it that way. I don't need the house to be a loud environment and Grace doesn't need that either, Aaron's the only person that's been here. "She doesn't need to"

He sits up on my bed, "Am I the only person from school that's been here?"

"Don't be weird about it"

"Wow I feel honoured" He touches his heart and I look at him weirdly as I untie my shoe laces

"You and Grace's babysitter" I add

Aaron scoffs, "Wait a minute Gracie has another babysitter?"

"Yup"

He puts his phone down before giving me a look, "Is she hot?"

I scrunch my nose, "That means yes" He says knowingly

"She's not ugly" I admit

Aaron shakes me excitedly, "Maybe she can finally pull you out of this whore phase that your in-

"Ok I'm not a whore" I snort

"Let's not look through your messages again"

I don't reply

"So what's her name man?"

"Carmen"

"Wait... as in Rodriguez?"

Hold on a second, what?

I freeze, "Carmens related to Enzo?" I say surprised

Aaron snorts, "Where the hell have you been, of course she is"

Look as far as I was concerned, Enzo only had an older brother and twin siblings, Santiago and Adriana. I frown with confusion, "How many siblings does he have?"

"Six"

I widen my eyes, "There's more?" I scoff

"You really have been living under a rock nigga"

I frown to myself as I sit there, "But now that you do know, don't go for a Rodriguez unless it's for the long term"

"Yeah It's not like that"

He pats my back, "That's what they all say" He leaves my room after that, leaving me to sit there alone with my thoughts

-CARMEN-
I look ok. I actually feel it too, "Zoe's here!" Matty shouts from downstairs, I pick up my purse before walking with my sister to the living room.

Zoe's in the kitchen with Matty and my mom, the only thing I heard from the conversation was mom calling her beautiful. Her dress is amazing so there was no lie told, "Hey" I say

She looks at me and Adriana impressed, "Well damn, I've been out dressed"

I snort in return, "Where's Santi?"

"Backyard, I'll get him" Zoe replies before going outside, I take out a bottle of water from the fridge

"It's an interesting choice"

I frown at my mom, "What?"

"No creas que el vestido hace que tus caderas se vean mas anches?"

-don't you think the dress makes your hips look wider?-

That comment was all it took to make me self doubt, "What is your problem?"

"Excuse me?" She scoffs

"You tell Zoe that she looks beautiful but you can't even say one nice thing to your daughter"

"I never meant it in a bad way" Mom replies

"Well I'd die to have hips like C's" Adriana says with a mouthful of an apple bite

"Let's just go"

Santiago and Zoe walk back into the house, "Ready?"

"Ready" I mutter before walking out first

The four of us pile into Zoe's car, us two at the front and Santiago at the back with Adriana. It's 8:30 which means that the suns only setting now, for some reason I'm less excited than I was before.

"By the way, who's designated driver?" Zoe asks

"Not it" Adriana and I say in unison

"Fine, I'll do it" Santiago says

"Just don't fuck up my car" Zoe warns

"Relax I won't"

"Anything from Sienna?" She then asks me

I sigh, "No she's still radio silent"

I put on my seatbelt, "It's fine we'll talk to her later then"

"Yeah alright"

Eliza's house is pretty big, not my house big or Miller house size but nonetheless the house is still quite large. Zoe parks her jeep amongst the other sea of cars, I get out first. Let's just hope that these heels don't fail me tonight, "The air just smells like sex" Adriana says with relief

"Don't fuck a rando today" Santiago says seriously

"I'll do what I like"

He's got this weird mentality that because he's two minutes older she should always listen to him, she never does.

Eliza's house is already stuffy and the place is crowded with so many teenagers, there's red solo cups lying around the living room and drinks spread out all over the kitchen. My siblings head deeper into the house "I'm gonna try to find Si!" Zoe shouts over the music

I nod before heading into the kitchen. There's so many opened bottles of alcohol that I shall not be touching, call me crazy but I like to take the unopened ones because it's safer, and no I don't take cups, I take bottles.

I pick up the first vodka that I lay my eyes on before opening it and taking a large gulp right away, it leaves a satisfying burn in my throat and I cough a little before wiping my mouth. "So do I get a some or are you gonna finish all of it?" Enzo says amused

I pass him the bottle and he chugs quite a bit before giving it back. "When did you get here?" I ask

"About an hour ago" My brother replies

"Don't drink the whole thing" He says seriously as I take another swig

I cough, "Lorenzo now isn't the time to go big brother on me"

"You'll feel sick if you do-

"Enzo?"

He turns around, "What's up"

Whyyy

I frown as my brother does that little bro hug thing with Carter fricking Miller.

Am I drunk already?

He then notices me and his eyes rake up and down my body -hate that shit- before settling on my eyes. "Carmen" He says surprised

"You two know each other?" Enzo frowns

"Unfortunately so" I reply

My brother looks between the two of us, "Your not fucking my sister are you"

Ew

"Nah, she's babysitting my little sister" Carter replies

Enzo looks back at me, "Your babysitting for the Millers?" He says surprised

"Surprise?"

"You could've told me"

"I didn't think you'd care"

"Yeah but-

His phone buzzes and he pauses before looking down at it, whoever texted seems to be important. I try to take a glance, "Who's that" I ask as he puts his cup down

"No one, I'll see you at home" My brother walks past me quickly before going further into the house

What the fuck?

"I'll have some of that" Carter takes my bottle before taking a swig and I snatch it back from him mid drink.

"Get your own" I reply before sliding passed him

Where the heck is everyone

It felt like a whole work out with the way I was circling around the house, after minutes of searching I finally found Zoe in the living room with Aaron on the couch. I think I'll leave her be, they seem to be getting on pretty well and I hope Aaron doesn't ruin that, "C dance with me" Adriana drags my hand before leading me all the way to the centre of the room

My sister and I danced to many songs throughout the night, even if we didn't know them. Now there's a whole list of songs you can dance to but I'm pretty sure everyone has that one song that just initiates something inside of them, now I don't know about anyone else but for me it's the song sexy back.

And since I didn't really want to grind against the perverted guys from my school, Adri was my boyfriend for the night..... along with a random blonde that I didn't know, she was hot though.

That's why I love parties. No one cares about who you are or what you look like, it's just people coming together to have fun. And plus we're drunk so we'll forget half of the night by tomorrow, I drank some more vodka before pouring some everywhere as we continued dancing, like I said I'm kind of tipsy

Adriana was blessed with beautiful hips and she knows how to use them well, I remember how when she was nine years old she would always try and learn how to move her hips the way Shakira could, Santiago would always tease her about it but it looks like it payed off.

I was definitely flushed after half an hour of dancing. I walk away from the centre of the room before opening the fridge, I desperately need water. As I'm standing by the kitchen I can't help but notice a familiar looking blonde, I frown after closing the cap of my bottle. "Michael?"

He looks up from his phone, "Hey Carmen"

"Zoe and I have been looking for you and Sienna all night" I snort

Michael frowns, "Sienna?"

Ok hold up, what's with that look?

Now it's my turn to frown, "Yeah.... I thought she was coming with you" I say with a little confusion

"Why would she be coming with me?"

"Cause you guys like each other?...."

Michael stands upright "Shit, Sienna likes me?" He says surprised

I open my mouth before closing it instantly like a fish, "You know what?....Im probably wasted so shouldn't listen to me" I back away

I feel really bad because it's clear that he likes Sienna

"Wait, Carmen-

"Forget I said anything" I take my vodka and my water before walking away.

Ok somethings definitely up, if Sienna isn't fucking Michael then who is she fucking?

~*~

You know, the last thing I remember eating was a slice of toast this morning. Although technically it counts as yesterday morning since it's probably 1am right now..... Anyway the point is, a slice of toast was all I had because I needed to make sure I looked good in the dress that I'm currently wearing.

And now I can't tell if I'm tired from all the drinking or tired because I'm hungry. Literally I feel a little light headed and my vision is off, I look around for a bathroom as I slowly make my way up the stairs. The hallway is quiet except for the moans that are currently coming from a spare bedroom, I trip over my feet before regaining my balance.

I was on my way to the bathroom but then I stop after hearing familiar voices.... Or should I say a familiar giggle. "Stop, I want a drink let's go downstairs"

I peep through the crack in the door, "Or we could stay" The male voice murmurs against her neck

The blonde lifts up the brown haired guys head before bringing their lips together. I'm literally speechless...

She lies back down onto the bed as they continue to swallow each other whole

Fuck

I widen my eyes, "No way" I whisper

Enzo and Sienna, of fucking course. I had a suspicion but I wanted to believe that it was a lie, however now that I've seen this I'm beyond pissed. I'm also too tired to even catch them out, I'll let those two have their fun.... But I won't forget how they lied to me

I slowly make my way down the stairs, taking one small step at a time. My body tried to give up towards the last few steps and I sort of ended up tripping over, thankfully someone held me up by the arm just in time. "Jesus" I breathe out

"Is she wasted?" A female voice says confused

"Probably" The male mutters

I'm seeing two Eliza's and three Carters, everything's moving so slowly "Carmen"

"My brother" I mumble before collapsing into  his hard chest

I'm still awake, I just don't have the energy to talk....my body has given up. "Carter" Eliza scoffs

"I'll be a second" He replies before putting one of my arms around his neck and guiding me to the living room

"You smell good"

He doesn't reply

I'm not making any effort to walk so it's surprising that he's able to manage the heavy lifting "Jesus C how much did you drink?" He scoffs

"Hmm" I mumble as he sits me down on the couch

-CARTER-
Carmen wastes no time in lying on me as I sit beside her. This isn't the behaviour of a drunk person..... it's almost like she's been drugged or some shit. Her strawberry scent is being overpowered by the smell vodka, I'm telling you she reeks of alcohol.

Carmen looked so fucking good tonight and there's no denying that, however I'm wondering what led her to drink so much. I was talking with Eliza until I saw her try to walk down the stairs on her own, she looked incredibly tired.

I'm not sure where Enzo was but I'm thankful that he came down just in time, he frowns
"What's going on?"

I scratch the back of my head, "I don't know. She's beyond wasted"

He sighs as he lifts his sister up by the arm, "I told you not to drink the whole bottle-

Carmen unexpectedly pulls her arm back, "I didn't"

"Clearly you did" Her brother replies

"Come on" He tries to help her up

"I'm going with Santi"

"Well we don't know where Santi is"

"Find him" Carmen says annoyed

"Stop being so fucking difficult-

"I don't wanna go with you"

Enzo rolls his eyes before walking away and Carmen rests her head down on one of the pillows, "Why don't you wanna go with Enzo?" I ask her

"Cause" She mumbles

I decide to leave the conversation there because I can see how tired she is, and she'll most likely forget today by the time the morning comes..... but that doesn't mean that I'll let it go.

-CARMEN-
"How much have you had Carmen?" Santiago asks with concern

"A bottle"

He sighs before starting Zoe's car, "Why didn't you wanna go back with Enzo"

I put on his hoodie before lying against the window, watching every car that we pass by. "Just cause"

He glances at me before looking back at the roads, "Carter looked so pretty today" I unexpectedly say

My brother looks at me amused, "You think?"

"It's a shame he's a dick"

"You like those kind of guys though"

True

"Can we get food?"

"Sure"

I finally allow my eyes to close, letting the darkness take over.
