I been under scrutiny
The first party back at the lake was always the craziest, well, the first and last ones rivaled each other for sure. Every weekend was a party for the most part, by the end of the summer I was gonna be off alcohol for months because the thought of it will make me vomit.
I was finishing up the final touches of my look for the night, wanting to look cute for you know who. I had curled my hair and put on some hoops and a cute white top that contrasted my freshly tanned skin. I went with a denim low rise mini skirt to finish it off. My motto is if you feel pretty, others will see it.
So I wanted to feel pretty so Jack would see it.
I could hear the guys downstairs getting more and more rowdy, clearly taking shots to get a buzz working. As I was applying a clear gloss my fun went off on my vanity; Luke. "I'm almost done." I answered.
"Your taking forever, I'm already drunk" he yelled. I giggled, smacking my lips to even the gloss.
"Ok I get it, I'm coming now." I told him, grabbing my purse and giving myself one last look in the mirror. I bounded down the steps and went into the kitchen where I was immediately handed a bottle of vodka in one hand and lemonade in the other.
"Shot!" Ethan yelled. I stared at the bottle, gulping down the nerves before I quickly took a shot and chased it with the lemonade. "Yay!" He cheered happily as I held down a gag from the God awful taste of the liquor.
"I need to drink before I do any more" I cringed, handing him the bottles. He took them away and I went to grab out one of my drinks.
"Well doesn't she just look so pretty" Trevor said loudly as he sling his arm across my shoulders. I covered my face in embarrassment as everyone but my brother all said yes.
"Trevor" Jackson groaned. The boy beside me only grinned, keeping his arm around me. It took only a second before the attention was off me and I was just another body in the room. My eyes swept the room, seeing everyone talking and excited to go get loose. I glanced up at Trevor as he spoke to Mark and laughed, trailing my eyes from him to his arm that was on me. It made me feel giddy inside, he thought i looked pretty. God I hope Jack thought I looked pretty.
If he did, he would tell me, only to see me squirm. He would tell me with that stupid, cocky smirk on his lips and watch as my body reacted to his words. I would blush and my hands would fidget and I would barely be able to get out a response. The usual. Who knows if he even meant it, in moments like that I didn't care if it was real or for show, I just liked hearing the words leave his lips.
Speaking of, my eyes found him. He was talking with Quinn and Jackson, well he was with them but he wasn't talking. He was looking at me. He sipped his drink, keeping his eyes on me. I felt like a deer in headlights, stunned by the beauty of his blue eyes. He knew it. I wasn't the best at hiding from him. He sent me a smile and a wink that made my heart flutter before peeling his eyes off me.
Still, that couple seconds I had with him was the highlight of the night thus far.

It wasn't even midnight yet and here I was at this party, feeling a good buzz and dancing around with Ethan. He spun me around, watching as my feet stumbled a bit from the drinks, catching me when I would fall and laughing with me at my clumsiness. Then we would repeat. It was fun, I was having fun.
Being with all these guys was a blessing and a curse. It showed tonight. I had the greatest time with them but when another guy even thought about speaking to me they were quick to shut it down. So many times I was approached by cute guys on the dance floor but Ethan made sure they didn't come back. Sober me would be happy, I would probably regret the stranger in the morning.
"I want to find Lukey!" I squealed drunkenly. Ethan put his hand on my back and walked us out back where Luke was making out with some pretty blonde. "Nevermind" we laughed but stayed outside, finding Mark and Seamus chilling by the pool.
"Drunk Lily. Always a pleasure" Seamus joked as I plopped down on a lounge chair, laying side ways.
"I'm not that drunk" I defended. I was drunk but not even close to blacked out. "Where's Jack?" I had this thing where whenever I had a sip of alcohol I wanted to always have an eye on Jack. I wanted to see him. Even if I saw him with someone else I wanted to see him. Let's be real, even sober I wanted to see him.
"He's inside somewhere. Go find him if you want, be aware though, he's probably hooking up with someone tonight." Mark reminded me. I rolled my eyes and sat up with a long sigh.
"I don't care" I lied.
"Mhmmm. If he wasn't such an idiot he would see what's right in front of him" Ethan said and the other two guys nodded.
"What's that even mean?"
"Nothing Lil, want me to help you find him?" Ethan helped me stand as he asked, laughing slightly as a happy smile broke out on my face and I nodded.
"Yes"
Jacks POV
My eyes scanned the crowd, looking for a target for tonight. Someone I could take home and hook up with them never speak to again. Beside me, Trevor was talking but I wasn't really paying attention. "Dude, I have not heard a word you said. I'm looking for my conquest. Shouldn't you be?"
I noticed the way a small, barely noticeable smirk made its way onto his lips. It almost made my skin crawl. "Nah, I'm good. Already got one."
"Yeah ok, who?" I scoffed, finally turning to look at him. He looked around before leaning closer to me.
"Lily"
The second her name hit my ear I froze. He was gonna hook up with Lily. My fist clenched my beer a bit harder as I rolled my eyes. "Yeah good luck, she's like obsessed with me" I reminded him. I'm no idiot. That beautiful girl would do anything I asked and I loved it. It was a thrill, seeing her get all flustered. How could I not love that attention?
"I'm gonna fix that" he laughed, once again making my blood boil. I had no right to feel this way. I saw Lily as a friend, one that I cared about but also loved to know she wanted me. The thought of her not wanting me like she does and wanting Trevor of all people made me feel sick to my stomach.
"Once again, she's obsessed with me. I could get her to whatever I wanted" I sipped my beer with a satisfied smirk on my lips, knowing fair well he knew that I was right. Everyone knew. I was her dream, and I wanted it stay that way.
"Jack you play with the girl because you know she wants you. That's fucked up and you know it, it's your best friends sister" he pointed out. I just shrugged.
"It's not doing her harm. I don't make promises to her that I don't intend to keep. It's harmless flirting. I would never hurt her." I defended. "Your one to talk, saying your gonna hook up with her. Jackson would be pissed."
"I already did. We made out last night, I snuck into her room. He has no idea. Atleast I'm not playing with her" He argued, starting to get annoyed. I also was getting annoyed. Especially now that I found out he had fucking kissed her.
"Oh so your gonna make her your girlfriend? Since your not playing with her. You know, not using her because she's hot and innocent and you want to use her for your own enjoyment. That's not what's going on surely" sarcasm was clearly leaking out of my mouth and I could see it only made him mad.
"She knows what I want" he argued.
"We'll see." I wanted to end this conversation before I punched him the face. He was pissing me off. My flirting was harmless as I said, it was fun and I know she liked it. He was gonna hurt her and I wanted to kill him. "I need more beer" I used that as my excuse to walk away from him and go cool off.
Lilys POV
Ethan practically dragged me through the house as we searched for Jack. My eyes lit up as we saw him in the kitchen alone drinking a beer. "What's up Jack?" Ethan leaned next to him and Jack just smiled and shook his head.
"Hi Lily" he said in a sing song voice that sent ripples through my body. I bit my lip to contain the major cheesin smile that wanted to come out.
"Hi Jack" i giggled like a school girl. I was so down bad.
"Lil, I'll be back in 2 minutes. I need to piss." Ethan promised me, grabbing both my hands and giving them a squeeze before leaving me with the love of my life.
"You look so pretty today Lily" Jack said from beside me. Just the way I had imagined he would earlier. And I loved every second of it.
"Thank you" I got out, loving the way his smile only got bigger at my softer tone of voice thanks to him.
"So, Lily, my favorite girl, I have a question for you." He stepped up a little closer to me, making my heart beat so fast I'm sure he could feel it. I looked up at him anxiously awaiting him to ask whatever he was gonna ask. I hoped it was him asking me on a date but even I wasn't that delusional. "Are you hooking up with Zegras?"
My heart sunk into my stomach. "W-what?" I stuttered out. He raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"Are you hooking up with Trevor?" He repeated.
"N-no" i shook my head, hating myself for lying to him. He nodded slowly, pursing his lips.
"That's not what he told me" and my heart sunk even a little lower. The scenarios I had in my head about getting with Trevor in regards to Jack all faded and I realized this was not good. I could feel it radiating off him. "I thought I knew you better" he frowned, almost mockingly.
"I-I" I didn't know what to say as my brain fumbled around for the right words. "I'm sorry" was all I could get out.
"It's ok, do what you want. I just...I didn't think you were that easy" he knew that stung. They all knew that stung and I had a complex when it came to being called things like that- go read my Instagram comments. It's all fan girls harassing me.
Ouch.
Hearing that from him paired with the disapproving look in his eyes sent a fire to my soul, and not a good one. I was angry. For the first time I was angry at Jack Hughes.
