Warnings: mild mentions of alcohol and drugs

Reece POV

I was sitting in the passengers seat of Marco's red convertible, cringing at the horrible music. The sound of his terrible singing ringing in my ears. I grumbled as my hair blew in the wind.

This is torture

"Oi, Marco! Turn it up will ya?" Screamed someone from the back seat. I couldn't tell who it was from the drunk slur of words coming from their mouth.Marco's hand reached for the stereo and the music blasted through the speakers. I closed my eyes and tried to imagine the keys of a piano. The beautiful music almost got to my mind before it was interrupted by the screeching voice of who I thought was Stuart.

" Hey, Reece! Got any birds on your mind?" He asked. I rolled my eyes at the idiotic nickname he used for ladies. I could smell the beer in his breath even from that distance.

"Nah! Why is there someone you got your eye on?" I asked casually as if I was enjoying this whole encounter. The guys snickered and turned their attention to their fellow comrade. He laughed out loud and smirked. " 'corse I do. Always have!"

That made them lose their mind as they all took another swig of beer and clapped him on the back. Marco's wolf spirit started to attack Stuart's greyhound so they had to slap his muzzle. Amidst all the chaos I felt my phone buzz in my pocket. I sneakily pulled it out of my jeans and unlocked it.

I looked at the text to see it was from my friend Cat. She wanted to know what I was doing.

" oi, oi! Who's that Reece? Your girlfriend?"
Lucas asked getting closer to me. The stench of alcohol and smoke almost made me gag. I shoved him off. He dropped the bottle on the floor of the car and spilled the foul liquid on the carpeted ground. He laughed and Marco groaned. This was his brand new car, but he brushed it off like it was nothing as he pulled into the driveway.

I looked up at the two-story house that was lit up with crazy lights. You could hear the loud music and the earth was shaking around us. It was a typical collage party. As we walked through the doors into the house, I immediately smelled the stench of hard alcohol and beer. Smoke filled the room as it caught the light causing it to glow red. I held in a cough as the guys dispersed into the crowd. I turned and walked into the kitchen, passing a couple making out in the hallway. I would've much rather been at home playing piano.

I suddenly remember that I had Sally in my pocket when I felt the squirming. I pulled her out and set her on my shoulder. She had obviously smelled the food. I grabbed a can of coke and walked outside into the backyard.

There was a pool that glistened in the moonlight. There were few people outside so I was by myself. I sat down on the grass and drank my Coke. I watched the larger spirits wrestle with each other, as they were obviously forgotten because alcohol and sex seemed more appealing to their ignorant human companions. One of the dogs caught my attention. He cocked his head sideways and wagged his tail. I smiled and called him over.

The husky bounded over, obviously exited. I rubbed his fur in between his ears. I pulled out my phone quickly to capture a picture of his beauty. I would sketch him later.

I remembered Cat. I texted her back hoping for a good conversation. She once tried to pretend that she had a crush on me to cover up the fact that she was a lesbian. I knew something was up when she looked almost relieved when I rejected her. I didn't want to be in a relationship with my best friend. She finally told me and I tried to be supportive, but it was hard for her considering her parents were homophobic.

She texted me back after a while. It was a nice conversation but I eventually got bored. I decided to take a stroll. I slipped out of the gate before anyone saw me and walked along the sidewalk.

I prayed I didn't get lost. I did not know the neighborhood very well because I didn't live here. I started tapping my thigh to moonlight sonata. The music filled my head and I continued walking. I got lost in the music and closed my eyes.

I fell into a... Fountain? I shuddered cold and wet. Luckily my phone seemed to be ok, but i needed a ride home. I texted Cat but there was no reply. It turned out it was 2:30 am. I groaned. I didn't want to deal with the drunk and or high idiots I called my friends. I looked through my contacts.

Mom? No

Dad? No

Lucas? Nope

Marco? Double nope

Cat? No she was asleep.

Stuart? Please, there was no way.

I scrolled through a bunch more until only one was left.

Casper
I hesitantly pressed his name and the phone rang.

Twice
Three
Fo-

"Hello?"

" Casper"
