Polaroid

Chapter 1

*Irene POV*

"Come on Lauren! You have to come to this party with me. It's Friday night, our first party for this term", I'm sick of Lauren staying at home. She needs new friends, not that I am tired of being her friend. But she needs to socialise.

"Please", I gave her my infamous puppy dog eyes. I hate it when people question me about Lauren and ask me why I hangout with her.Finally I convinced her to attend the party even though it was hell of a task, I still managed to do it.

I offered my new black V-neck crop top but she refused to wear it. Alright, I didn't push it more. Come on, she atleast agreed to attend the party. Baby steps. I wore a wine red dress, which hugged my curves perfectly and the black heels were like the cherry on top. After doing both mine and Lauren's hair and makeup, we decided to drive her car as she was pretty sure I would end up getting drunk. 

The music was extremely loud, it was clearly aubile even from three blocks away. Lauren gave me 'the look'. You know that look that says 'If I enter that door and something happens to me I won't hesitate to kill you'. Yeah that look.

"Irene, I think this is a terrible idea. I mean did you hear the music!? The cops would arrive any time and before you know we'll be behind the bars. Not to mention my mother would disown me if I end up in the lockup". 

"Nothing would happen Lauren, trust me."

"Yeah, you, that's exactly what I'm most worried about", she said barely above a whisper but i still heard it. I let it slide because I knew shes always been the worried kind of friend. 

Lauren was right, the music was hella loud and it was risky but that's the whole point of being a high schooler. Having fun, taking risks and going to wild parties. 

"Oh there you are Irene", there stood Regina Aristov. She's always hated me. Reason? I'm still trying to discover that. She just likes walking and passing comments about me and Lauren. Not that it affects me, she still gets on my nerves sometimes. 

"Oh I see you have brought your friend to the party. What's your name again , lore? " . I knew Regina said that on purpose to make Lauren feel low . Before  I could say a word  Regina turned towards me . " I have saved you a glass of beer , would have saved for your friend if I knew she would make an entrance ."

I knew Regina is upto something . "Lauren doesn't drink and no thanks I don't want a drink.  Not from you . "
"Come on Irene , are you scared of having a glass of beer?" She shot me a challenging look  . I glanced at Lauren probably she was thinking the same .  I could totally read her mind. 'Dont drink it .Don't '. I snatched the drink from Regina and drank the beer .
Regina gave a me evil laugh and simply walked away.

"Are you insane ! You drank the beer ? ! " Lauren was pissed , more than pissed I had no capacity to argue . I let it slide . "Come on Lauren nothing is going to happen. " Saying that I pulled her to dance .

I woke up in the morning with a bad hungover.  Very bad hungover and the worst I couldn't remember anything from last night. I remember dancing with Lauren and I excused myself for a drink but after that it's blank . Just blank . I remember nothing at all.

"You are awake " Lauren exclaimed I couldn't miss the the sarcasm .

"It's everywhere you know . Everyone is talking about it " .  It's everywhere? Everyone is talking about it? . "What's everywhere ? What happened?" . I am confused  , did Lauren do something?.  Did I do something?

"Your video Irene . It's everywhere "
Video? . "What video ". "The vido of you stripping your clothes it's everywhere . Everyone saw it.  People took videos . Heck someone took a Polaroid to put it in the year book. "

"WHAT!? VIDEO? POLAROID! " Please tell me it's a prank . But it's not national prank day .  I scrolled through my phone . It's true everyone saw it.  Everyone is talking about the video.  About me .
