Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: The party

MEGAN'S POV

My lessons with Harris went well as they always have to be. "Harris have a nice day. Well I think today you will have to go early, also you are done with teaching me today's session. I really appreciate your work and support." I said as if I was hiding something. My words sounded like as if I was hiding him something. He noticed my face that I was hiding something from him and asked. "Megan, do you have something that you want to tell me?"" Well the truth is that my friends called me on a party but I told them that I have a session with you. So I had to stay." I replied with a sad expression on my face as I was facing the ground. Harris chuckled, holding my arms and said. "Look at me in the eyes Megan. Stop talking to people while looking at the ground. Can you look in my eyes and tell me what you wanted to tell me?" I looked at him and replied. "I want to go to the party where my friends are."" It's not a problem, you can go and have fun with your friends. I can escort you at your friend's party." Harris said. "Don't you have work to do?" I asked. "I have my part-time job in the evening." He replied. "Then I have to call my cousin and tell him that I'm going to have fun with my friends." I said with a wide smile.

I had to call Steven and tell him that I want to go to a house party and have fun with my friends. (On the phone with my cousin.)

Megan: "Hey Stephanie!"

Steven: "Hello beautiful!"

Megan: "Stephanie my friends have a house party so they invited me. They also invited Mia."

Steven: "Make sure you that your phone is charged. I will check up on you."

Megan: "Thank you my handsome cousin.

Steven: "I forgot to ask you something. At what time are you heading to the house party and whom are you going with?"

Megan: "I'm going to ask Mia about the time. My tutor is going to accompany me to the house where the party is."

Steven: "Be careful, you will tell me the time you are going to come back so that I can pick you up."

I ended the call with Steven . Everything went great. "Well Harris, I think you are going to accompany me." I said smiling. "Of course I will wait for you as you dress up." He replied. I ran to my room to dress up. I first sent a text to Mia. "I'm going to catch up with you on the party. Send the location please!"

I dressed up in a pair of distressed denim jeans paired with a trendy top, A small stylish bag to carry my essentials. As for hair and makeup. I stylished my hair with a ponytail. I put on a bold, lip gloss to make a statement. A natural, radiant glow with a subtle highlighting. All I wanted is to act natural. Lastly I spritzed with myself a rich, floral scent with notes of jasmine and sandalwood called the channel No. 5 classy perfume for women. I finally came out of my room. Harris took a stare at me. I think this is my first time seeing him staring at me like this as if he has never seen me before. I felt shy when he stared at me. I finally came near him. "Why were you staring at me?" I asked. "Oh! I..I..I. Was I staring at you?" Harris stammered his words. Harris's words in mind. (She really looks more lovely and more importantly she's stunning tonight) Harris seemed like he was out of blue. "Harris! Harris!" I called." Ye..yes, I'm so sorry for that Megan. You can have a front seat next to me if you don't mind." He said. "It's okay I would like too." I responded.

I sat in front next to my Mr Perfect who even doesn't know that he's my Mr Perfect. Harris tied his seatbelt yet as the clumsy one forgets to tie herself seatbelt. I don't know if I'm being careless or something else like being carefree. I was busy on my phone not knowing that I have to care of my life by tying a seatbelt. For God's sake I even don't have any idea of how to tie a seat belt for myself unless someone else does it for me. "Megan why have you not tied your seatbelt?" He asked. I didn't want to get embarrassed. So I panicked to tie my seat belt but I didn't have any idea of how to tie it. Harris laughed at me. "What are you laughing at?" I asked like an absurd person not knowing that he was laughing at me. "I never expected that you don't know to tie a seat belt." He replied. "The truth is that my parents and my cousin Steven tie my seat belt." I said looking at him. "It's okay, then I will help you with it." He responded. He came nearer to me to tie my seat belt. My heart pumped so much as I was looking at him closely tying my seat belt. I think his heart didn't flutter as mine. "Well it was very easy. Next time I will teach you how to tie a seat belt. I think your parents didn't have enough time to teach you." Harris ventured. "As you wish my tutor." I laughed and Harris joined me in the laughter.

We started our journey to the house where the party is. Finally we reached at the house. There was no sign that the party was there. I called Mia and begged her to come and get me because I was at the exact house where the party is. I called Mia but I didn't expect Liam to come instead of Megan. I was with Harris when Liam came. He came walking to me. "Hey Megan," I didn't expect you to come. He said while giggling. "I finally came! What are you doing outside?" I asked. "I got bored so I wanted to get some fresh air." Liam replied. "Who is this Megan?" Liam asked. "He is my tutor, his name is Harris." I replied as I was looking at Harris. Liam and Harris shaked hands as they were introducing themselves exchanging pleasantries. "I'm Liam, I also study at the same university with Megan." "I will be heading home if you get any problem you can call me." Harris said. "Don't worry I take care of her." Liam replied. "You call me on the phone Megan OK." Harris said being serious as he was looking at Liam. Harris started his car to start his journey back at his place.

Mia also came but she saw with Liam and just went back at the party without even speaking a single word with me. I don't know why she reacted like that. Was she jealous with me that I was with Liam? I had to run to her and ask her what made her upset with me the moment she saw me with Liam. "Mia.. Mia?" I shouted as I held her hand. She shook off her hand from mine and replied with the tone I never expected her to use since we were friends for so long. "Megan, do you take me as a fool? You called me and pleaded to come and get you. You lied to me that you came with your tutor. I think you just wanted to show me that you are a closer to Liam. Not to Liam only , you are someone who always sticks on people."

Mia walked away and left me blank. I had nothing to answer because he words were hurting that I got emotional and started crying. My heart was broken on what Mia had said. I'm not that someone who always sticks on people. Why has she suddenly got upset with me without even listening to my side? Why did I even come to this party? The crowd was dancing and having drinks. And as for me who has never got a sip of liquor or wine in this stinking world. I had to endure it so that I can kill off the stress and maybe forget the words which Mia had said earlier. I got a glass of wine and I started sipping. My first time to take wine, it's actually sweet but it's actually making me drunk. I'm starting to see everything in blur. "Megan, why are you drinking?" I didn't see the person who was asking me but I could recognize the voice. It was Liam who was asking. He made me stand up whike holding my hands. "Don't touch me." I said shaking off my hands from his. Where's Mia? Liam asked. "She left maybe." I replied as I felt exhausted and lightheaded, my legs could barely support me. "I want to go home. I said in sadistic way. " "I will help you take you back home." Liam replied.

I didn't expect the party to be such a mess to me. Mostly I didn't expect Mia to be such an idiot. I think I was the idiotic person to come and attend this good for nothing lousy party.
