"Come on Y/N, you came out here to have fun. Let's have some fun" my cousin Tristan whined.
"I didn't come out here to have fun, Tristan, I came out here to see you and spend time with you" I laughed as he threw himself on his couch.
"Are you saying I'm not fun?" He chuckled looking over at me.
"Shut up" I threw a pillow at him.
I had came to Pittsburgh to visit my cousin since I didn't get to see him much anymore. He was always my closest family member and him moving away had hit me pretty hard.
It was only my second day with Tristan and he was already trying to talk me into going to a party. I had no doubt that the party would be fun, but I couldn't help but think selfishly and want my cousin all to myself for a little bit.
"If you're not having fun we can leave I swear" he held up one hand placing the other hand on his heart.
"I know I'll have fun, I just wanted to spend some time with just you" I looked at him seriously.
"I won't ever leave your side" he smiled at me.
"Fine, fine, I'll go get ready" I groaned getting off the couch.
I still wasn't completely excited for the party, but it seemed to mean a lot to Tristan. I'm sure it would at least be fun.
I ran to shower quickly before changing into a well worn pair of jeans and a random t-shirt. As I was turning to leave I had the thought to head to Tristan's room and raid his closet. I pulled out one of his Penguins hoodies and smiled at it.
"Perfect" I giggled pulling the hoodie that completely swallowed me over my head as I walked out of the room.
"Stealing my clothes now?" Tristan rose an eyebrow at me as I entered the living room.
"There some kind of problem here?" I asked with my hands on my hips.
"None at all" he grinned grabbing his jacket and leading the way out the door.
The party was small at first and I was really enjoying myself. As the party grew I became more uneasy...claustrophobic almost. Tristan had kept his promise on staying near me to spend time with me, but it had hit a point I just needed a minute to myself.
"Hey, Tristan, I'll be right back ok? I'm just going to get some fresh air" I smiled placing a hand on his arm gently.
"Want me to come with you?" He asked me seriously.
"Nah, stay and have fun I'm just going to take a quick breather" I pat his shoulder before moving to the sliding door that I assumed went out to the patio.
The minute the cool air hit me, it comforted me. I was starting to feel panicky being in a house with so many people.
"Needed out of there too?" I heard a voice before I saw anyone.
I jumped and placed my hand over my heart.
"Holy crap, you scared me" I said trying to regulate my breathing as the male chuckled.
"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you. I thought you saw me" he looked at me serious as his laughter settled.
"I did not see you at all" I giggled taking a seat at the table he was seated at. "But yes I needed out of there. I was starting to feel like I couldn't breathe, if that makes sense"
"Why do you think I'm out here?" He grinned.
"Y/N" I held my hand out to him.
"John" he took my hand shaking it.
He looked at me curiously as he reached over and grabbed the sleeve of the hoodie I was wearing and turned it a bit to the side.
"What?" I asked cautiously.
"You with Jarry?" He asked dropping my sleeve.
"He's the reason I'm here, I'm not from Pittsburgh. I just came to visit him" I shrugged slightly.
"I'm play on the Penguins with him. I didn't know you knew him...he's a lucky guy" John trailed off before breaking eye contact with me and focusing his stare on the table.
"Oh...oh, no. No, no, no" I laughed shaking my head. "He's my cousin" I said through my laughter.
"Oh" he chuckled softly looking down. "My bad"
"No worries" I smiled at him. "I actually didn't want to come tonight. He talked me into it...hence the reason I'm here"
"Well, I'm glad you decided to come" he smiled turning to look at me.
"Me too actually" I returned the smile.
"Odd question but...if I brave the crowd in there to get us some drinks, would you have a drink with me?" He asked almost nervously.
"I would like that" I gave a soft smile making his smile grow.
"I'll be right back then, wish me luck" he chuckled gently rubbing my arm.
"Hey" I grabbed his hand as he went to remove it.
"Thank you" I gave his hand a small squeeze.
"Of course, anything for the most beautiful girl here" he smiled genuinely and I felt my cheeks heat up.
He was adorable and so sweet.
As he disappeared into the house to get drinks, I couldn't help but think how much I didn't want to come to this party earlier today.
I smiled to myself thinking that I was talked into going to the party for a reason. Everything happens for a reason, and I really was glad I came...so glad I came.
