My boyfriend's Best Friend

WTH

It had been 3 months since my last interaction with Trevor and Max. I still see Trevor and Sarah making out at lunch. So I see I wasn't the new shiny toy anymore. I assumed he lost interest since I wouldn't help him cheat. It's Halloween time and, of course, there is a Halloween party. And of course, Allie talked me into going. She was going to be a sexy red riding hood. I made the mistake of letting her pick out my costume and she picked a sexy devil, which is a dark red short dress that barely covers my ass. I swear she didn't get the correct size for this thing. I also have red heels, a tail that clips to the dress, little horns, and wings, the black feather wings. Currently, Allie and I are getting ready for the party at my house. My parents are out to dinner right now.

"So have you talked to Trevor lately?" Allie asks me.

"Nope, not since he pulled me behind the bleachers on the football field and tried to kiss me," I say. I stop doing my make-up for a moment and look at her "three months ago", I say, then go back to doing my red eyeliner.

"Wow. I'm sorry, hun. I know you kinda had a crush on him."

"It's fine you told me he was bad news and I didn't listen."

"I know but still" she says as she finishes her makeup. I finished mine shortly after and we headed out to the party.

When we get there, people are mingling outside. The closer we get to the door the more we heard Emenim's 'Shake That'. Once again, the moment we walk in, Allie walks off to do her own thing.I make my way to the kitchen.In the kitchen I grab a beer. I felt someone staring at me. I turn around to see some guy in the doorway looking at me but someone walks past me, bumping into me. When I look back, the guy is gone. So weird, he looked really familiar. I made my way out to the living room, thinking about where I remembered him from. When I sat down, I remembered he was one of Trevor's friends that Allie didn't know at that first party. Anyway, I try not to dwell on it. I sip my beer and people watch. This is my definition of fun, usually. After a little while, with nothing exciting, Allie comes up to me, grabs my hand and pulls me to the dance floor. The dance floor feels like a club with blinking lights and a mosh of people just dancing and grinding, not really my scene. Allie hands me two shots and tells me to down them. They were good, strong but good.

"What were those?" I asked her, yelling over the music.

"Green tea shots. Dillon is learning to become a bar tender. This is his house." Dillon is 20-years old. He doesn't go to our school anymore, but his brother is in our class Andrew. Allie brings me to the center of the dance floor. We dance to a few songs that I've never heard of. We are having so much fun. A few guys grind on her before she sends them off to dance with me. Then 'Bad Habits' turns on and Allie is dancing with me for a moment before a guy comes up to her. She is dancing with him when a guy comes up behind me and puts his hands on my hips, pulling me against him and we dance together. Eventually, he turns me around, I notice he was wearing a masquerade mask. His mask was very intricate, beautiful matte black. He is a little taller, probably about 5'9, his hair looked dark brown and he had tawny beige skin, like warm sand. He felt strong the way he held me. He didn't look ridiculously ripped, but he wasn't scrawny. His expression seemed to be focused. He didn't seem arrogant or anything like that. He never said a word to me. The next song started playing it was 'Take you dancing' by Jason Derulo. He started to pull a few fancy moves as he and I were dancing to the song. My breath would catch every time he brought me close, we would look into each other's eyes, almost never breaking eye contact. It almost felt as if we were the only ones dancing, even though everyone was dancing around us very close, very close, there were so many people on the dance floor. It was packed with not too much room to dance but we managed. As soon as the song ended, we stopped dancing and he looked at me, then he seemed to notice something or someone behind me. I looked behind me to see what it was, thinking it might have been Allie making a face or making out with someone but nothing. I saw someone making their way through the crowd over to us. I turned back around to say something to the mystery guy but he was gone. weird, someone put their hand on my shoulder. It took everything in me to not hit this person, so instead I just pulled away and turned to face them, leaving some space between me and the person, since I felt a weird vibe about them. When I looked up, it was Max. Max was cute but he definitely had a girlfriend, probably several. Once he was done with one, he had another lined up and waiting, anyway.

"Hey Sam, how are you?" he said.

"Good whats up Max I haven't heard from you in a while."

"Yeah, I know sorry about that but I need you to come with me please." He says, holding out his hand for me to take. I take his hand and he pulls me off the dance floor and over to the den. In the den is Trevor and another girl. I knew this girl vaguely. She was Max's current girlfriend Hailey, I think. I look at everyone a bit confused as to why I am here. Hailey is smoking a joint. Ugh I hope they didn't pull me back here to smoke. I did not find weed to be very appealing. I certainly did not want my first time smoking to be with them. "So you still like Trevor, right?" Max says, looking at me.

"Uh... I don't know why?" I said, very confused as to what was happening.

"Just answer the question, please. Do you find Trevor attractive? Yes or no?"

"Um, yeah sure I guess" I said.

"Great he still likes you too, so you two are now dating." Max says and pulls me to the couch and sits me down next to Trevor. "Now hold hands and act like a couple."

"But I thought he was dating Sarah?" I asked, looking between Max and Trevor.

"They just broke up like a couple hours ago" I notice Trevor give Max a look. Something tells me it was much more recent than that. But Max gives Trevor a look back and Trevor takes my hand. They both smile at me and Max goes over to Hailey and takes a hit off the joint. We sit in silence for a few moments. Max looks over at us. "Come on guys let's go dance." He says and gives Hailey a kiss before taking her hand and leading us all out to the dance floor. Before we reach the dance floor, Max stops us and says, "You know you guys are dating and y'all need to kiss. You haven't kissed yet." I looked at him, then to Trevor. We both shrug and he gives me a quick kiss. Max looks satisfied and we go to the dance floor. Trevor and I just stood off to the side of the dance floor holding hands awkwardly. Allie finally comes over to me and sees me and I shoot her a look of plea saying help.

"There you are. I really need to get out of here, some guy won't leave me alone." She says, taking my free hand and pulling me towards her, forcing me to let go of Trevor's hand. Thank god.

"Bye, I'll see you later" I say and Allie pulls me out of there. Once we are out of ear shot and he can no longer see us, Allie stops and turns around.

"What the hell was that???" She asks.

"I have no f*****g idea dude. So I was dancing with this hot mystery guy one minute and then Max came up to me...." I told her everything that had happened. How Max just declared me and Trevor as dating now and basically forced us to kiss. "It was really f*****g weird. Please get me the f**k out of here," I said, and we left.
