Those friends that you have are the best, impressing most of us as permanent
But I'd like to see you undone
Youth's the most unfaithful mistress, still we forge ahead to miss her
Rushing our moment to shine


They had done their duties as she had promised by making some phone calls to spread the word about the gathering happening that night. No one that she had spoken to seemed to care that it was commencing around eleven PM on a school night - sharing her personal sentiments. She saw it as a bonus that there was actually something to do that night, and even if she had to go to class in the morning without sleeping a wink she wouldn't miss out on the fun. They pulled up in Chad's car shortly after the announced start time and she was pushed out of the front seat quickly so the rest of the group could pile out after her much to her dismay at being rushed. She was laughing though and clearly in good spirits as she lingered by the car, waiting for a couple of the guys to hoist a cooler fully stocked with their drinks from the back. They carried it over to the outskirts of the forming crowd and she trailed after them with an armful of blankets which she deposited unceremoniously in the sand - to be grabbed by anyone who needed or wanted one as the night progressed and the temperature dropped. Her former school attire had been abandoned for a much more casual look - flip flops on her feet despite the chilly night because even if she had worn shoes she would have ditched them at the car before venturing on to the sand, faded and tattered jeans hanging low on her trim hips, and a black down vest zipped up over her dark violet fitted hoodie. It was likely that at least her top layer would be abandoned once the fire got going and she downed a couple drinks, but for now she was just barely comfortable - it was hard for her to stay warm sometimes, especially with that cool breeze blowing up off the ocean. Before long, she had a drink in hand - a Stella - and had found someone to chat with - one of the boys who had ridden out with them. He was a big guy and she was a petite girl and so rather than stare up at him the whole time they were chatting, she had found a driftwood log to stand on - so instead she was almost looking down at him, much to her delight. Every time she lifted her drink to her lips, a hand went to his shoulder though for balance - she didn't totally trust herself and to fall off would be a bit of an embarrassment...
