SILLY AFTER P A R T I E S

[CHRISTIAN DAVEK]

Christian laughed and shook his head. “I think about it,” he chuckled, ruffling her hair. “But I don’t leave parties first,” he told her and strode out of the closet, not sure who to pick next. “Hey, whoever wants to get laid, get in the closet!” he announced, cackling and glancing around at the suddenly sullen mood. “Well this is fun,” he laughed, taking another swig of his vodka.

In his annoyance he had at least managed to bring his pants along....putting them on though he had forgotten entirely, at least not until he was standing in front of Isobel. He easily slipped them on, his emotions torn, like a roller coaster just ripping through him.. He was angry, and frustrated...but worst of all? Je felt hurt and he felt guilty for upsetting her. He didn't like this and in all honesty part of him wanted to just turn and walk away. "It wasn't like I planned for her to just throw herself at me Isobel..." He sighed, honestly not wanting to do this to her. "He'll I don't know what's going on. I care...the fact that i even care at all scares the hell out of me... Honestly? I had though you moved on to someone else." He wasn't about to accuse her of anything or say his friends names. "I told you before I was new to this and I wasn't lying...I'm not going to make excuses for what I did, but look...I am sorry..." Those words had passed his lips many times...but never had they been so true or genuine...He reached out, trying to take her hand but if she wouldn't let him, he wouldn't stop her. "I thought you had moved on...and as you just witnessed I'm not the greatest at coping with things...But just leave with me, let's just get out of here..go get something to eat...and just talk, please?"
 

 

[melanie]

Melanie smiled faintly, honestly waiting for Christian to fall over as he stepped out of the closet. "You'll see." Melanie replied, lauging as she spoke. The party was dead...everyone was in a bad mood or they were slowly being put in to one. "Ummmm Nat...and Luke...you two haven't gone yet." She nodded quite proud that she remembered that. With very little people left she remained by Christian's side. "And here i thought it was just me." She teased as she glanced around the room. "You know technically if we just move the party somewhere else, you technically wouldn't be leaving first. And I just happen go know a place with all the Vodka and alcohol you could need. Best part, it's not a total buzz killer." She announced happily, probably the only one in the house with a smile.

[ISOBEL CARTER]

Isobel laughed bitterly and shook her head as Nate pulled his pants back on, taking another swig of her drink. This was a scene she had watched so many times in plenty of different movies and shows, but she had never been on the other side of the screen, having it happen to her. It was all very complete, down to him claiming that Bella had thrown herself at him, pretending to be oblivious and accusing Isobel of having her own eyes on someone else. She gritted her teeth and rolled her eyes, pressing a palm to her forehead.

"Those were DARES, Nate! We were playing TRUTH OR DARE! They weren't your cue to go fuck some pregnant chick with a boyfriend in a closet! If I'm not your date what the hell have you been doing all night, sitting by me and cuddling me and dancing with me and giving me flowers?! I would call that dating!! Am I forgetting anything else, or am I not your date until I PUT THE FUCK OUT, NATHAN?! Ugh," she growled as he reached for her hand, letting him take it only because he wasn't the one she was mad at... not really. But she didn't close her fingers around his or anything. He apologized and she looked away, taking a deep breath and letting it out. She needed to calm down, or she was going to end up being accused of being a drama queen just like almost every other girl here. Nate was still talking, begging her to leave with him, and Isobel scoffed and shook her head, still not meeting his eyes.

"I'm not going anywhere, Nate, because there's nothing to talk about. I just thought you were going to try to be different," she said, before she pulled her hand out of his and headed for the only safe place in the house... the bathroom. Isobel locked the door behind her and looking at herself in the mirror before moaning and burying her face in her hands.

What was she doing?

[CHRISTIAN DAVEK]

Christian sighed heavily, becoming slightly annoyed as Melanie continued pushing the idea of leaving with her. “You know there’s such a thing as trying too hard?” he muttered, shaking his head, slowly coming down from that pleasant drunkenness as Melanie kept pushing. “Drama all around! What is more interesting than watching other people suffer?” he murmured, glancing around at all of the seriousness, pleased with how the night was going, even if everyone was off of their amusement and their buzzes. Drama was just as entertaining as drunkenness.

[nathan]

He had never cared so much and one simple moment, he had royally fucked things up.., He didn't honestly know what else to do. Beg? Get down on his hands and knees? Because honestly he was running out of other options and he was getting pretty close to that point. He swallowed, trying his best to dumpy stand there and take all that she had to say to him. From her point of view, it showed him just how much of a dick he has been. He could make excuse after excuse...but deep down he knew the truth...and it was something he didn't know he could ever tell her.



He had been screamed at...hit, but he always took it in stride. Here though, it felt like with every word that she said to him she was ripping his heart out. And who knew Nathan Wilder had a heart to begin with...He was only realizing it now...as he watched Isobel Carter walk out the room with it. It was stupid, but honestly it felt like if he gave up now...he'd begetter off just giving up forever. He stepped lightly, following after her but of course he didn't try to follow her into the bathroom. Instead he stood outside the door. "You don't come out...you don't even have to day anything...just listen, even though I know I don't even deserve that much," He began, sighing as he rested his head against the door for a moment. "I meant every words I said to you at the ball...what happened just mow, it's stupid and god I'm the biggest dumbass in the world, but it was my way of trying to push you away. I feel...something I care what you think, I care that I did this to you and that, it isn't me and I'm honestly scared... I care about you, very much Isobel and I'm going to screw up, I know I am I don't want to but it'll happen eventually. I don't want to get hurt...but more importantly, I'd never be able to forgive myself if I hurt you...thus is probably the stupidest thing i've ever says, but...I've never felt this way about anyone.."
 

 

[melanie]

"Maybe...it just depends on who you ask." She replied after a moment, obviously her que to drop the whole leaving thing...but he had to at least see her pint. The party had sort of become a drag since they had gone into the closet...hmmm so if she couldn't leave the party, then she'd just have to make due with what she had here. She glanced around the room, noticing that his mood was dropping as well. "Just be glad it's nit your drama and keep drinking." She pointed out, personally rather happy to be not caught in the middle. "You know by the end of the night I just might lose my crown...the shame.." She said sighing dramatically before grinning only a moment later.

[ISOBEL CARTER]

Isobel was surprised to hear Nathan's voice outside the door, and she pulled her hands from her face to press her palms together in front of her nose, glancing uncertainly at the door as he asked her to listen to him. Isobel sighed; after blowing up at him she at least owed him that much. She walked over to the door as he began, leaning back against it and sliding down to the floor, closing her eyes as Nate spoke to her. He was apologizing, telling her that he was scared and being honest with her, admitting that he would screw up because he was only human... It all made so much sense. She had forgiven him quite a while ago, because it wasn't him in the closet with Bella that had made her so angry, but it was the only reason she could have been angry without sounding like a complete and total idiot. Which she guessed she was, since she had taken it out on Nate... sweet Nate who had been so amazing to her all night before he had made a mistake. She had taken it out on him, and Isobel was realizing she was just as much of a bitch as anyone else.

Tears welled in her blue eyes as she listened to him. She had hurt him, and he obviously cared so much about her... Honestly, the only thing she wanted to do was to open the door and hug him tight, tell him that it was okay and that she was sorry, but she couldn't... Nate might take that as her returning his feelings, and she couldn't do that to him when she was still too confused herself to know if she felt anything at all, and at whom it was directed. She couldn't be around him right now... it wasn't fair to either of them.

"Just go, Nate..." Isobel pleaded, voice quivering as tears fell from her eyes, leaving a faint trail of black eyeliner down her cheek. "I'll talk to you later," she promised, clearing her throat and looking up over her shoulder at the doorknob. Nate was still her friend, after all, and she cared about him deeply in that respect.

[CHRISTIAN DAVEK]

Christian ignored Melanie and her babbling and instead just glanced around, trying to catch up on what all was going on now. Break ups, fighting, etcetera. It was great. Of course as earlier had shown, drama would die down and the fun would resume until everyone was passed out drunk and all partied out. Christian didn’t mind the drama, considering he wasn’t personally being affected. He just sat back and drank, enjoying the show and waiting for the games to start up again.
