Ella Reed
The Wild Child
Mood:
ecstatic but going south fast
Location:
Plaza Hotel
Coming to the party, Ella Reed definitely expected a lot. In the sense of a lot of snobby assholes exhibiting their wealth, a lot of boring music and a lot of free alcohol, thank god. She also knew there were going to be five more people from her school, five more seniors she possibly knew but the brunette was definitely not in a mood to explore or look for them. With her luck, she would come across one of the popular bitches or her former fellows cheerleaders and catfighting was not what this girl was in a mood for at this point. The New Year’s Eve was supposed to be some sort of new beginning, right? And while Ella was not planning on making any radical changes in her life at this point nor she was desiring to make amends with all the people she ever got into conflict with. To be frank, if she actually started doing it, she would have the work cut out for her for a few months.
However, what she id not expect was meeting this charming guy, not afraid to experiment a little with her. Ella was never the girl who was afraid to follow what she wanted to do and therefore, there was no surprise she was not standing outside and getting high while the stuffy party was raging inside. Well, raging might have been quite exaggerated in this case. But Ella and her new companion threw their own little party outside, inhaling the drug and making their heads a little woozy. Those two words, anything goes, surely became a theme and Ella enjoyed the little game. She was toying with him, trying to see how far the boy was willing to go. Maybe he was even one of her classmates. Maybe he was a son of some of those oh so important people. Ella didn’t care. Not tonight.
As he called her out on wanting him to take the lead, Ella giggled. “True…I don’t have any ideas. Not just yet. I like to think I’m a free spirit. Planning shit is for suckers. I like to play things by the ear. Wanna go dancing? Get even more high? Quickie in the bathroom? Steal the booze and get out of here? I’m game for all of these…” she winked, taking another drag from the blunt, handing it back to the handsome stranger.
For hours to come, the two were together, dancing, drinking, slipping out for an occasional cigarette and making out until their lips were sore. Ella started to see the end of the party in very bright colors because she might have found someone she wanted to take home with her. Or to his place. It didn’t really matter. But he was definitely keeping up with her speed, kept her entertained, his kisses were making her feel things and her body reacted in all sorts of ways and he was not obnoxious which served him well. It had been quite some time since Ella actually met a boy she didn’t want to murder after the first ten minutes.
The midnight crawled upon them fast and before they knew it, the countdown sounded. The crowd excitedly started at ten and yelled the numbers so loudly it made Ella burst out laughing. Why, she had no idea. But she did grab another flute of bubbly from the waiter going past her and yelled the last three numbers with everyone else because fuck it. With the first fireworks cutting the night sky, she pulled the boy by her side closer into a passionate New Year’s kiss. “Happy New Year, stranger.” she hummed, deepening the kiss, ready to leave the party at this point. They exceeded all entertainment and there was nothing left for Ella to do until…
Another waiter approached them, handing over golden envelopes. The very same ones as the invitation had arrived in. Considering they both were handed one, Ella was now positive that one of her classmates was standing in front of her, she just didn’t know who he was. But at this point, the envelope was more important to her as she knew there was a condition she needed to meet. Some kind of price to pay for being able to attend this. Ripping the envelope open, Ella impatiently pulled the small note out and scanned the content very quickly. She actually needed to look again, making sure she read it correctly. “Are you…fucking…” she breathed and emptied her champagne in one go. Her good mood was gone and at this point, all she wanted to do was leave.
“I’m sorry but…I think I gotta go.” she looked up at the boy in front of her and without saying anything else, she turned on her heel and darted off, weaving through the crowd straight to the elevator. The message was still ringing in her head and she needed a place where she could make sure she forgot. And it was certainly not here. The elevator fortunately didn’t take long and came up quickly, hiding Ella from the sight of everyone as the door closed after her, taking her away from the party she should have never attended as the note basically blackmailed her. Now she had a choice to make. Either she would join the school glee club or she would be held back a year which meant no graduation. And Ella Reed did not want to do either of those.
