"Be ready."

"Come on, Ann's!" I tell her.
"No." She states crossing her arms. "Parties are not my thing."
"Pleaseee!" I beg her.
"Sorry, not sorry." She stated.
"You're no fun." I tell her, pouting my face.
"You're cute when you do that." She tells me before ruffling my hair. "Besides, you can always go without me."
"But I don't want to go without you." I tell her.
"Too bad." She says.
I cross my arms and she raises an eyebrow.
I look straight into her eyes
We were staring at each others eyes.
"Those eyes....might change my mind but I'm not letting them." She stated, looking away, making me smirk.
"Well?" I ask still trying to look at her.
"Fine." She stated.
"Yes!" I stand up and hug her tightly.
I carry her and spin her around.
I put her down.
"Jeez, it feels like a proposal." She tells me as we pull away.
"I love youu!" I tell her hugging her once again.

"What the fuck am I suppose to wear?!" Annie shakes me.
"Why did you agree to go to that stupid party anyway?" I shake her back.
She lets go of me.
"I don't know, it just, I feel bad for Johnny." Annie tells me. "He seemed so disappointed when I disagreed to go with him."
"Aww." I spat out.
She gave me a look.
"Sorry." I tell her
"But I have a great idea!" I suddenly bring my phone out.
I ring Maddie and put it on speaker as soon as she picks up
"Maddie Ziegler speaking, how can I help you."
"Maddie!"
"Lauren?"
"You need to come here, asap."
"Come where?"
"Annie's house."
"Annie's house? Why?"
"Are you there?"
"Yeah, I'm here."
"Why?"
"Because I'm not at home."
"What do you need."
"Go purple."
"I'm on my way."
And by that, she ended our call.
"Go purple?" Annie asks making me giggle.
"It was just our codes since we were young. Back then, we would use them every time." I explain. "But now, we use it when we're on phone calls or messaging each other only."
"Oh." She commented. "What does it mean?"
"Purple means mostly about parties and those stuff." I explain. "Red for emergency, pink for happy proposal and romantic stuff, white for peace, black for something scary, mostly something dark, like death, blue for something related to heartbreaks, green for something related to vacation planning and a few more other colors."
"That seems cool. But why think of those codes at a young age?" She asks.
"I have literally no clue." I state. "I can't even remember a thing about being a kid anymore. All I could remember was Jayden and Maddie being my childhood besties."

Annie and I walk in the mansion.
The air filled with the scent of alcohol as we both enter.
She holds my hand and as we both walk in further into the house.
Music blasting everywhere.
As we go further into the house, I realized Annie tighten her grip on my hand.
"What's wrong?" I ask her.
She looks up.
"I'm not used to this." She stated.
"Come on, I think that's a good place where you can stay." I tell her, leading both of us to the kitchen.
"Are you....going to drink?" She asks.
"Depends if you'll allow me." I reply.
She tightens her grip on my hand.
"You wanna go outside or something? I feel like you need to go get some....fresh air." I ask her.
She nods and we both go out to the backyard.
We sit on one of the benches there in peace.
She lays her head on my shoulder as we both look at the sky.
3rd person point of view:
A few moments have past when Johnny heard a ding in his phone.
He opened his phone to see a message.
A message from his friend, Carson.
Carson
Yo dude, where are you?
Carson
Feels like forever since you didn't actually go to a party.
Carson
Do you not know about the party or something?
Carson
Your sister's here with me.
Carson
Are you here or not?
Carson
Or are you just inside one of the rooms here.
Carson
If you know what I mean. 😏😏😏
Johnny
Fuck off.
Carson
Where are you??
Carson
Are you even here?
Johnny
Yes I'm here.
Johnny
I'm with Annie.
Carson
😏😏
Johnny
Fuck. Off.
Carson
Have fun, dude.
Carson
But just to warn you, Nadia's here.

"Ann's?" I ask quietly.
"Annie?" I ask again, hearing no respond from her.
I look at her and her eyes were closed.
She's asleep.
"Annie." I wake her up.
"I'm gonna go get something to drink. Something not alcoholic. Want anything?" I ask her standing up.
"No thanks. I'm fine." She responded as she rubbed her eyes.
"You wanna go home?" I ask her.
"No, no. It's fine, really." She replies.
"I'll be right back. If you need me, I'll be in the kitchen." I tell her as I enter the house.
As I enter, the scent of alcohol went through my nose.
I look around and realize that most of the people in here are already drunk.
I reach the drinks section when I hear a voice suddenly talking.
"It sure is nice to see you here." A voice echoed through the room. "About, 5% of the sober people."
I look up to see someone I never expected to see.
"Hayden." I spoke.
"Hey! You remember." He says leaning back against the counter. "Good times."
"What do you want?" I ask.
"Oh you already know what I want. Not just only me too, but the whole gang." He replied. "Nadia even warned you about it."
"Johnny? You in here?" A soft female voice echoed as well.
"Hey," I look at her. "What do you need."
"I want to go home." She requested as she holds my arm.
"Yeah, we should-" I tell Annie before I get interrupted.
"Ah, girlfriend I see." Hayden spoke. "Henderson will sure love this."
"No, we don't bring her into this." I tell Hayden. "She's innocent."
"Maybe so. See you soon, Orlando." He says before walking out of the room. "Be ready."
