just let go [open]

Now with night finally here, it was time to get the party started. The pre party ritual of hair doing, make up fixing and pre-drinking had already been done, with her friend Mercy of course. Tonight, the brunette had straightened out her long locks so that they fell perfectly straight around her shoulders. Cora fixed her make up so it was perfect, not too over the top and not too little. With all of that done, the two teens had nursed a bottle of alcohol between the two of the, and Cora was already starting to feel the buzz.

Once ready,Cora slipped into her shoes and made her way out Mercy's bedroom and downstairs. Her outfit tonight consisted of a simple black dress, which hugged her curves in all the right places, but still left enough to the imagination. The bank’s house was a house that she knew like the back of her hand. She had spent enough time there over the years that it was like a second home to her. So as she made her way down the stairs to the main level, she was radiating with confidence, liquid confidence or real confidence? It was hard to tell.

Cora made her way through the house and out towards the backyard which was already packed with people, many of which she knew. Eager to keep the good buzz she had going, Cora started on her way towards the drinks, and area which she was sure was going to be jam packed. Half way there, among the shimmying and shuffling around people, Cora lost her footing and stumbled forward a step. Despite regaining her balance quite quickly, she hadn’t managed to avoid hitting anyone. “I’m so sorry.” She said to the person she had hit, her words coming out slightly slurred. “Please tell me you didn’t have a drink in your hand or anything, cause that would just be so bad if I had bumped it out of your hard. So sorry.” A smile lit up her face as she stopped with her drunken ramblings.

Mia was extremely excited to go to this big party. She hadn't been to any parties since last school year and she needed a break from midterm studying. It had become a huge debate in her head whether or not she would go but because Emma said she wanted to go, Mia decided to go. When the game had ended, Mia had her mother drive her home to get changed. She changed into a cute summery type dress that made her curves come out nicely. She styled her hair with the poof in the front and loose curls falling down over her shoulders. Her makeup was minimal but not to the point where it didn't look like she was wearing any. In a matter of half an hour, Mia was ready.

Mia's mother drove her to the Banks residence following the directions on the flyer that was handed around the school about two days ago. The party was already happening because there were a lot of cars outside of the very large house. Mia was way too excited for her own good. Her mother gave her the lecture of "don't drink or you'll do something stupid" and the good old "don't get into someone's car if they've been drinking". Mia listened to her mother and she did respect and love her mother but Mia was ready to have a little fun. Only to relax and have a good time would she have some alcoholic drinks.

She let her mother kiss her cheek goodbye and got out of the car. The music echoed into her ears and a bright smile appeared on Mia's face. She walked away from the car but not before waving goodbye to her mother for the last time of the night. She shimmied her skirt down a little to flatten it out and made her way to the noise of people in the backyard. There were so many faces here and only a handful of them could Mia actually semi-recognize. There was one face that she recognized almost immediately. Cora Daniels. Mia hadn't really talked to her except a few times but the fact that Cora had already tripped didn't really surprise Mia. She giggled and walked over to the help the person Cora had bumped into. "Excuse my friend, she's a little clumsy,"
