He leaned forward, blowing the smoke into my face before he offered me the fag, raising his eyebrows.
“I’m alright; I don’t smoke,” I said, smiling politely.
“I bet you’ve never tried it,” the guy smirked, glancing at Ellie, who rolled her eyes.
“It stinks,” Ellie said. “It ruins perfectly good men.”
The guy sucked on the fag whilst gazing at Ellie, his eyes narrowing.
“So, who do you know here?”
I drank more vodka, the burning in my chest now subsiding as my heart rate increased. Finally, the vodka was kicking in.
Ellie cut her eyes at me and answered before I could speak.
“Raff.”
“Yeah?” The guy said in a bored tone. “Coming outside?”
“What’s outside?” I asked, instantly panicking.
The dark-haired guy looked at me with the fag hanging from his lips, a faint grin forming.
“Everyone.”
Maybe Logan is there.
He tugged open the back door, and I saw lanterns lining the floor. Ellie shrugged, and we followed the guy, the other two behind us.
“Whiskey?” The guy behind me offered, holding out a hip flask. “It’s not that bad.”
“I’m good,” I murmured, my eyes scanning the smokers outside.
“I’m Troy.”
I glanced back at him, realising he was exotic-looking, with big brown eyes and flawless skin. He was built like a brick shithouse, though, which was a tad intimidating.
A piercing scream ripped through the crowd, followed by pounding feet as someone rushed past us, carrying a girl on their back.
“There’s your man.” Troy chuckled, nodding to the couple that was now fooling around near the back door.
“What?” I said, my eyes darting to the figure.
“Raff,” Ellie called out, and the figure stopped, turning around to reveal Rafael’s stunned expression. His eyes swept over her as he released the girl beside him like a hot potato. “Where’s my brother?”
Troy and the dark-haired guy shared a look of confusion as Raff walked over to us, nodding at me briefly before he gazed at Ellie.
“Girl, you lookgood.”
“My brother?” Ellie asked icily, holding her hand for the hip flask extending from Troy’s hand.
“I think he’s over there.” Raff nodded beyond Ellie towards the back garden. “I’ll get you a drink,” he said, his eyes narrowing at Troy, who held his hands up.
My heart skipped a beat. Is Logan here?
“What are you doing with Zander’s sister?” Raff muttered, his eyes fleeting to Troy and the others, who all seemed confused.
“Wait, which one is his sister?” The dark-haired guy piped up as Raff ignored him. “Because I’m more interested in this one anyway.”
