Elena
The atmosphere isn’t hot, so we take down the window as I increase the volume of the music we’re both mouthing on.
“Yoooooo!” Ava takes her head out of the window, screaming out as though she’s drunk. I laugh hard as I accompany her in clapping hands as we sing.
The drive is fun and smooth until we reach the school premises, Ava takes a left turn towards the parking lot. She turns the engine off and the music. The music was loud but the only thing missing was alcohol. We weren’t drinking, we ain’t fully into the naughty mood yet.
We haven’t left the parking lot when we begin to see a crowd, girls and boys just coming too, they are waking towards the school hall, some are going to the empty classes to do whatever is in their fucking mind.
I see some girls in a very short body-hug gown. Ava and I ain’t the only ones who dressed crazy.
“Girl, let’s go.” Ava says. I stop looking as I come out of the car, shutting it behind me.
“Where do you think we should head first?” I ask Ava. She is dragging her gown down a little. The way she sat in the car while driving, brought the gown above her thighs as it exposes her red pants.
“I don’t know, I think we should go where people are heading most. What do you think?” I inquire, squinting my eyes to see the large hall from this point. It is a lot beautiful now with lots of decorations and different ribbons at the top, wondering how inside will be like already.
“Yes sure, it will be a lot of fun.” Ava nods smiling as we start to walk away from the car.
There’s a lot of people in the hall, a lot of flowers too at every corner. The hall is cool and a little dark but with blue-pink lights to make it lively. It’s so beautiful.
The first person I catch my eyes on is Riley, at the stage. I remember she is the cheerleader, she’s at the stage right now with her gang. They are all on almost the same style of clothes but different colors. The music is loud and it’s noisy.
I just stand at a corner with Ava, while we watch the dance at the stage. Riley and her gang is performing a dance as though it’s a thing to welcome everyone.
“What does she think she is doing?” Ava whispers in my ears as her eyes are still on the stage.
I resist the urge to laugh then whisper back to her, “Entertaining you.” I laugh again, but that’s not what I have in mind now.
I’m trying to scan around for my mates. I wonder what they must be planning. They haven’t come to torment my life for some days now.
“Gross, I’m gonna get us some drinks. I’m thirsty.” Ava rolls her eyes as she whispers again.
Ava left and it feels like I’m naked. I suddenly feel lonely and the hair at the back of my neck is standing, this slutty mode tonight isn’t fully sponsored by me, I kind of feel a little regretful for dressing this way, but anyway I’m not gonna back down. I have to do this to get what I want.
“Hello, Elena. You don’t look bad.” her horrible voice is a whisper in my ears.
Jesus, how did she find me among this crowd all of a sudden? As if she has a spy on me or something.
“What do you want, do you have a spy on me?” my blood suddenly runs hot as I arch my brow, each time she comes near to me I have the urge to always deal with her, but I don’t. Something is restricting me yet.
“Nothing yet, but if you want to know, I always like to see the surprise expression on your face when something goes wrong.” she smirks, standing in front of me with boldness. Well it’s my fucking mates; fault that’s she has this boldness in her.
“What do you plan to do this time, Riley?” I grab her arm as if warning her but she doesn’t flinch. She only drops her eyes on the arms I’m holding then let out a mocking laugh.
“See for yourself, Elena.” she scoffs, grabbing my hand off her arms. She smirks again before walking back into the crowd, I try to find her in the crowd but then I spot my mates.
They are all dress in black suits and all hands deep into their pockets, they look bored as if waiting for the exact time to act yet. I don’t know what Riley is planning to do but I have a strange feeling it’s not going to be good.
Maybe we shouldn’t have come. I’m beginning to think it was a bad idea.
“Little mate.” darn it, I hear their voice. No, his voice. It’s Daniel.
I’m walking towards the stage to look for Riley or Ava to get the fuck out of here when I hear him coming from behind. I don’t know why his voice vibrated in my stomach. I mean this isn’t fear but some feelings I can’t describe yet and I would say I’m not familiar with it.
“W-what?” I turn back to look at him, it’s Daniel. I know he is the one, I can differentiate them easily, especially when they are my mates. The connection.
“Why are you dressed this way?” he frowns grabbing my arms. I don’t flinch because he didn’t grab me tightly.
“What do you mean? It’s a fun day, I get to dress the way I want.” I kind of shout back because it is noisy and I have no intention of coming close to his ears, not at all. I feel that strange feeling would rise up in my stomach again.
“You don’t have the permission to dress this way, Elena. Your thighs, your breast. They are all showing!” he didn’t yell but I can see his white teeth as he grit his teeth. “Seem like you’ve forgotten who you are. You are ours and nobody should see what is ours!” he sounded the same again, although the music is helping me as though he tries to yell, the music overshadows his voice.
“What do you call me? How do you treat me as?” I question him, looking into his green eyes then his clothes and then his broad shoulder. Why do I feel like it was his shadow I saw the other night from my window. “A whore!” I answered the question myself, through yelling as I fling my arm off his clutch.
“Whatever you call it, but you are ours. A whore or not!” he yells, and the both of us fall into silent all of a sudden. Why do I feel like he didn’t come to torment me and when he said a whore or NOT…
I avoid to stare hard at him and bite back a yell, ” What do you want?” I demand from him, but I don’t sense anger from him or anything harsh. I wonder why he is suddenly cool.
“Go change your clothes, Elena.” he groans.
“Heck, no. Why does it disturb you?” I roll my eyes, being the stubborn Elena I know that I’m familiar with.
“Not me, but us. It doesn’t disturb only me.” he gruffs, and I take my gaze back into the crowd where I spot my mates earlier. The three of them are still there and they don’t seem to have seen me or know if I am around.
“Lies.” I yell, backing him immediately as I go further into the crowd to find Ava. I don’t care about what I want tonight. I think we need to leave.
I spot where people are betting, and that is with drink. Whoever gets high or tired first losses the game. I don’t see the people yet so I walk closer. I get there and I see Ava, sitting on a guy’s lap. She has a six rolls of alcohol in front of her. It seems like she is among the people who’s betting to win.
“Ava, what the fuck are you doing?” I get close to her, and yell at her ears. She seems a little drunk. She just stares at me, blinking then she smiles again, taking her gaze back to the glasses of alcohol.
“You can’t be doing this now, Ava!” I shout grabbing her arm, but she pushes her hands off with a lot of strength making me stumble backwards.
Jeez, she is drunk. What do I do now? Shit! I stamp my heel on the floor with anger and regret as I put my hands on my forehead, trying to think.
I try to reason on how to get Ava with me and leave for home already, when I hear the mic. It’s so loud as though someone has something to announce. I don’t look at the stage yet, my mind is lost into getting Ava from the influence of that guy.
I’m sure he is the one who got her involved in the game. Ava doesn’t drink like that because she knows she is not capable of controlling it when she does. The fucking guy who has her on his lap has tattoo all over his arms and a little part on his face.
“Hello Everyone, I sure have a surprise to show you. When you see it, don’t be surprise because people get to hide under the mask of their innocent face.” she laughs a lot. Since she is using a mic, her laughter spread over the hall. Riley is beautiful and she has a nice voice, but she’s a devil and a fucking Satan!
My mind goes to what I just hear her say, and I don’t know why I feel it is related to me. Sweat starts to beads on my forehead. I wipe it off to stay calm as I look at the crowd. Everyone has given her their attention, waiting for whatever she has to show them and I have no clue what that is about.
She begin to turn on something like a flat screen. She is in charge of the remote so she does it fast. What is she doing? My pulse is beating hard now. Sweat is dripping down my back from the inside of my clothes. Why do I feel there will be a disaster tonight? Jesus Christ.
“Everybody, are you ready? Remember what I told you.” she smiles, the spotlight from above shines at her face, showing us how beautiful she is today. She clicks on play, and then…fuck, fuck, fuck! What is she doing?
Everyone gasps and the hair on my skin rise immediately as though what I have just seen is beyond seeing a ghost.
“Fuck shit! Elena you are a fucking asshole. You were fucking the Quads in class?” I hear someone curse me from behind, damn…Shit, I feel my knees weak already, I can’t stand. This is an embarrassment in the highest level.
“R-Riley?” I can’t even call her name properly, I’m in shock.
I want to puke now. Damn, everyone around me is looking at me now with disgust. She fucking recorded when the Quads are fucking me back in the class! How could she do this? My eyes are red, and I’m so fucked up tonight.
I can’t move because all eyes are almost on me…shit.
