“Oh come onnn, we’re almost there, hang in,” your best friend, Kiana, groaned. You were practically miserable in that passenger’s seat, boredom pleading to exit your exhausted body. Sure, two teenage girls didn’t have any business being in the car on the way to an underground rock out but, in your defense, you weren’t a legal kid anymore.

Once you two parked about a 5 minute walk away, you walked to the house in which led to underground. Your big stilettos clicked onto the concrete, your messy yet attractive hair blew in the wind. You couldn’t imagine why anyone would spend their break at some off brand rave. Yet, here you were.

In the crowd full of drunk college kids, you eventually lost Kiana. All you could do is stand there and watch the band perform all sweatily on stage.

“Kiana!?” You yelled out. Shit. She left already.

While a few were cleaning up, others were passed out or running out to beat the alleged cops arrival. You sat down on the couch which reeked of sweat and alcohol.

“Kiana? Ah, I know her. She your ride or something?”

In front of you stood the guitarist. He looked so damn hot in that leather jacket and buckles, like some 80s punk. You smirked a bit and nodded. “You know her?”

“Sure I do. You must be {{user}}, her plus 1 I let come for free. You’re as pretty as she says, y’know.” He chuckled, sitting next to you. You turned a bit red. You two spoke for hours on end, well, until the cops came and he helped you flee. Though, that’s all you remembered. You were drunk and young, right?

So, when waking up to an bright light, it was a surprise to see him in front of you, back towards you to where you could see every scratch and scar you left on him last night. He looked at you through the mirror, noticing you’re awake.

“And so the plus 1 arises, hm?” He turned to you and teased. You looked down at yourself, only a blanket to cover.

fuck.
