Cambridge

Rachel's P.O.V.

Skylar decided to go home for reasons unknown to me and not long after she left Tricia went off dancing with Niall, leaving me with the other three boys.

"C'mon Rach, I'm buying you a drink" Louis decided suddenly.

Before I had a chance to respond, he had a light grip on my arm, guiding me to where the drinks were.

"Harry's not gonna be happy!" Liam yelled after us.

I rolled my eyes.

Harry didn't like me drinking. Yet, of course it was fine for him to get completely wasted.

Louis handed me a drink quickly and began sipping at his.

"So why'd your friend leave?" he asked, conversationally.

I shrugged.

"She's a bit shy.. I guess a party was a bit much for her" I replied.

He nodded.

"She seemed nice. They both do" he said.

"They are" I agreed.

"But then again, you never really know, do ya? Remember that movie we saw when she turned out to be a complete physco?" Louis grinned slightly as he spoke.

I smiled too, remembering back to when we had watched the movie. "The Roommate" it was called.

We had watched it one time last year when Harry was back for the weekend and had brought Louis with him.

"Yeah.. That was pretty weird" I nodded.

"Well hey I was thinking. Why don't I show you around campus tomorrow? I can give you a full tour - Show you all the good places to eat and hang out etc." He offered.

For some reason I felt my heart flutter a little, instantly liking the idea of getting to spend a bit of time with Louis, without Harry around.

I smiled brightly.

"That'd be great Lou, thanks" I replied, trying not to sound too excited.

He gave me a grin in return.

"Well since this is your first college party and all you've done so far is talk.. Let's dance" he decided suddenly.

My eyes widened slightly at the suggestion.

I was completely up for dancing, but would dancing with Louis be such a good idea?

I had always found Louis attractive, and although he treated me as a friend rather than Harry's little sister, I knew hoping for anything more than a friendship would be pushing it.

"Emm.." I mumbled, unsure of how to respond.

"Oh c'mon Rach" he encouraged, taking hold of my hand quickly, to pull me away from the wall.

I sighed, giving in.

"Fine, fine, just this song" I said firmly.

One song my ass.

It was more than half an hour later when I finally decided I was too hot to keep dancing.

"I'm gonna go get a drink Louis" I told him breathlessly, having to yell slightly over the music.
He nodded, indicating he understood.

I walked around for a while until I saw Harry, Niall and Tricia standing by one of the walls.

"Hey Rach, where you been?" Harry asked, slinging an arm over my shoulder carelessly.

I could tell instantly he was pretty drunk, so I snatched the drink out of his hand quickly and downed it.

"Heeyyy... That was miiiiine!" he whined like a child, causing me to roll my eyes slightly.

"I like your roommates" he continued.

"Great thanks.." I grinned slightly.

The next few hours I spent drinking and dancing with randomers. Harry was probably right to worry about me. I was definitely a slutty drunk.

I had been grinding on some random guy for the last few minutes before I finally spun to crash my lips against his.

When sober, I would never dream of hooking up with someone I didn't know, but at this point I was so out of it that it seemed like a great idea.

His hands found my hips and guided me backwards until I felt my back hit the wall. I let his hands roam my body while his tongue explored my mouth.

Eventually he pulled back.

"Do you wanna take this upstairs?" he asked breathlessly, his breath tickling my ear.
I nodded in agreement.

I didn't even know who's house we were at, but that wasn't my main priority at the time.

He slipped his hand into mine and began carefully guiding me through the crowd of people.

Before we had a chance to get out to the hall however I felt a hand on my arm.

"What do you think your doing?"

I turned to face him quickly. Louis.

"What does it look like" I winked at him.

His expression remained unamused.

"Ashton, what are you doing? This is Harry's little sister" he told the boy I was with.

Ashton? Cute name..

His eyes widened slightly but he didn't release his grip on my hand.

"Styles? He'll be cool about it.." he replied, though he didn't look too sure.

Louis ignored him.

"C'mon Rachel. It's time for you to go home" he muttered, pulling me away from Ashton and the entire party.
