The house was filling quickly, most of downstairs now occupied with people ready for a good time, chatting in their little groups with drinks in their hands. Music blared from the CD-player inside the house spilling through the open back door that led to the decking area. A couple of steps led to the rest of the garden, where there was a pond on the right and the rest was made up of a patio which included a wide rectangular table and six chairs around it.
Sarah, leaving a small group of her friends, walked up from the bottom of the garden towards the house, stepping up onto the decking. She glanced to her left, half-smiling at Stuart Richards and Ian Porter, who were sitting on two plastic chairs, both of them with a cigarette and plastic cups filled with the cheap lager that theyâd brought with them. They watched her fade into the loud house to refill her wine.
It was nearly 9 p.m.. Sherina Barker, or Shez, as her friends called her, was one of Sarahâs best friends. Shezâs parents owned the house, but they were away. What better way to spend a birthday than to host a party whilst your parents were away. All of the people who sheâd invited, plus more, had turned up. It was looking like it would be one of the best parties of the summer. Another girl, Alison Thorne, threw one last month. Sherina never liked Alison. She thought she was up her own arse. In all honesty, she probably was. But her party was an event people spoke about for weeks.
That was a few months ago. This was now. Shez would make sure this would be a night to remember.
Sarah, after filling her plastic cup, came back outside and flaunted across the decking wearing a short skirt, a low-cut top, and black high heels. Her legs were tanned and muscular and her bum was something that every man at the party would have a peek at some point during the evening.
She was beautiful.
Long, dark straight hair fell on to her shoulders and her face carried the kindness of someone so innocent, it almost contradicted her physique and the way she moved back down to the garden.
Ian and Stuart were watching her closely.
âWould ya?â Stuart whispered.
âI wouldnât hesitate for a second,â Ian replied, smiling.
Ian Porter â and most of the other male teenagers there â fancied the arse off Sarah. The majority of the people at the party went to school with her and had felt something similar at some point during the five years of knowing her. In fact, the party was pretty much a school re-union. It had only been three years since theyâd left, but everyone kept in touch. When Sherina knew her nineteenth birthday was coming up, what better way to spend it than get all of her old class mates together and get drunk, play loud music, and dance like they had no cares in the world.
