"I want details" Cammy sits herself down on front of me. It's now Saturday so me and Cammy decided to go to the mall and do some last minute shopping for a party that's on tonight

"About what?" I decide to play dumb

"Hm I don't know, probably about you suddenly sleeping with your said 'enemy'"

"Pfft, enemy's a strong word"

"See you're already changing your tune" she gasps

I roll my eyes "whatever"

"So is he good in bed?" She grins

"If his best friends anything like him then you definitely don't have anything to worry about in that department" I smirk

"Good to know" she winks "so how many times has it happened?"

"Once"

"Only?"

"If I'm not working, he is"

"Annoying" she mutters "weren't you the one that said that friends with benefits almost always ends with one or both people catching feelings?"

"The keyword is almost" I take a sip out of the drink I got in Starbucks

"Just be careful" she gives me a serious look

"Cammy I won't catch feelings"

"What about the other way around" she raises an eyebrow

"Let's just go get ready for the party"

We got back to my house fifteen minutes later. We didn't have to worry about being too loud because mom was working and Emily has brought Oli over to the new house

"About what I said earlier" Cammy looks at me through the mirror she's doing her make up through "ignore it. I mean you're both young and having fun, what does it have to do with me. I'm pretty sure I was the one who kept suggesting it to you"

"Don't worry Cam, I know you're just looking out for me"

She nods a grin forming on her face "now let's get ready to drink the night away"

A little over an hour later both me and Cammy are ready for the party. Cammy decided to wear a crop top with a pair of distressed denim shorts. She had her hair tied up in a messy ponytail.

I decided on wearing a silky dress. I let my waist length hair fall down my back in some loose curls

The party was already well started by the time me and Cammy got there. When we walked through the front doors, I could instantly smell the mixture of alcohol and sweat. The front door was on a higher level than the foyer and there was around twenty steps down to where everyone was dancing. There was a balcony around the square of the room where you could look down at where everyone was dancing

"Let's go get some drinks" Cammy shouts in my ear and we try to walk through the sweaty bodies on the dance floor. We only had a few shots before I get a notification

Ryder

Come upstairs🤩

Most of our high school party's were hosted here so nearly everyone knew their way around. I turned around to tell Cammy that I'd be back in awhile but she was already gone. I looked around and found her talking to Sean at the other side of the kitchen. I grinned to myself before making my way out of the kitchen

I found Ryder in an unoccupied bedroom at the end of the hall

"Do you know how many people I've just walked in on?" I complained "I need to wash my eyes out"

Ryder laughs "so maybe I could have specified where I was" he takes a few steps towards me and rubs his hands up and down my waist, he leans in and his lips connect with my neck instantly sucking and nibbling and by default I push my head back to give him more access "come back to mine tonight" he mutters into my neck, his hot breath giving me goosebumps

"I can't" I mutter as his hands move lower and mine automatically move to his hair "Cam's staying at mine I can't exactly leave her there to fend for herself"

He shrugs and moves back with a smirk on his face "so we'll make sure she has a reason not to go back to yours"

A smirk makes its way onto my face "I'll take Cammy, you take Sean"

"Let's do it"

It was almost 1am when I put my part of the plan into action. Surprisingly me, Cammy, Sean and Ryder had all decided against getting drunk tonight

Me and Cammy were currently sitting on a bench out the back of the house. We had our legs crossed and we're facing each other

"So I was on Instagram earlier and I seen this twenty-four hour bowling ally that's opened up in town, you should go with Sean"

She raises her eyebrow "like as a date?"

"As whatever you want it to be"

"And afterwards there's always the diner that's open at all times"

Wow I'm such a terrible friend. Trying to get rid of my best friends for a boy. The only good side to it, is that I know that Cammy and Sean like each other and maybe just maybe this might be the extra push they need

I'm taken out of my thoughts when Ryder and Sean come walking up behind us. The take a seat on the other side of the bench.

"So there's this bowling ally-"

"I heard about this bowling ally-"

They both speak up at the same time

"Wanna go?" Sean asks her before standing up

Cammy nods and stands up "I mean who would we be to stop our friends from fucking their night away" she smirks and me and Ryder look at each other with wide eyes "that's what's happening right guys? You needed to get rid of us so you two could do the dirty?"

Sean smirks "don't forget to use protection"

And with that they walk away

"You weren't supposed to tell Sean the same thing I told Cammy" I hiss from across the bench

"How was I supposed to know!" He exclaims

"Whatever" I stand up and grab my things "I'll leave now and meet you at yours in twenty"

He smirks "and then we'll fuck our night away"

A loud bang on the door wakes me up. I open my eyes and immediately notice how bright it is. I huff before picking up my phone

"Shit, shit, shit" I mutter when my phone displays the time 12pm in the day. There's another knock on the door and a few voices follow

"Ryder if you don't get your lazy ass out of bed and get ready for our basketball match we'll break the door" I noticed the voices instantly. They were some of the boys from the football team that Ryder usually goes playing basketball with on Saturdays

I nudge Ryder who is still sleeping beside me and after a few seconds he stirs awake. He's about to say something but I cover his mouth with my hand and his furrowed eyebrows turn into raised ones when the boys speak up again

"If you've brought a girl back, we don't care we're coming in"

The handle is pushed down a couple of times but the lock stops it from opening. Ryder jumps up from the bed a grabs some grey shorts before sliding them up his body

"Where the hell am I supposed to go!" I whisper shout when he decides to forget about the fact that I shouldn't be here

"Get under the bed"

A different voice from outside speaks "Guess we'll just have to break the door down"

I hear several others laugh as I slip underneath the double bed. I roll my eyes to myself, I can't believe I forgot to set an alarm I knew the boys would be coming over and I had to be out hours ago to make sure I wasn't seen. But in my defence breaking down the door was a bit of a stretch

Ryder opens the door before they hit it "it's Saturday could you idiots not guess I was trying to have a sleep in" He bluffs and I can hear the lie in his voice. A few seconds later he's standing beside the bed kicking my dress from last night underneath it

"Sorry mate, we assumed you were skipping on us for some random" one of them speak up and I notice the voice as Johnathon who was another guy in our year, who I personally never really talk to

Ryder laughs "nope"

"So you didn't bring a girl back last night?" Another one questions "you left pretty early there's usually only one explanation for that"

Ryder breaths out a laugh and I can see the smirk that's most likely on his face in my head "no girl, just a splitting headache"

It takes Ryder a few more minutes to actually help me out and get the boys to leave the room

"Took you long enough" I mutter throwing my dress over my head

"What was I supposed to do? Tell them that the girl I supposedly hate is hiding under my bed with no clothes on so they have to leave?"

I roll my eyes "how am I supposed to leave now?"

He smirks taking a few steps towards me, his hands circle around my waist "and once you get out of this house how do you plan to actually get home?"

It took me a few seconds to realise what he meant, last night me and Cam didn't bring a car to the party because at the time we had both planned on drinking and Ryder's house was only a few blocks away from the party so I was able to walk to his afterwards

I give him a sarcastic smile and rest my hands on his defined chest "good point"

He lowers his head and his lips connect with my neck "stay here"

I tilt my head back to give him more access "hmm what?"

He stands straight and looks at me "stay here and when I get back I'll drive you home"

"Won't your mom come back?" I ask

He shakes his head and breaths out a laugh "nope"

"What if sh-"

He laughs "Talia she won't be back, just stay in my room if you want" he grabs a jersey from his bed and takes a few steps backwards towards the door "now I need to go before they barge in. I'll be back in a few hours"
