2624 Words
She was reading a book after finishing homework when someone knocked on the door. She got up and put the coffee mug on the table.
She whistled while heading towards the door.
Someone was knocking impatiently.
“Hold on, I am coming,” she said, almost screaming.
After a while, she opened the door. It was Zilla.
“Zilla,” she said and hugged her.
“Daniel asked me to give you a ride,” she said.
“Oh, are you coming as well?” she asked.
“Of course, I do,” she said smiling.
“That’s great,” she said and walked off towards her room.
“Just give me a few minutes, I will be back,” Amanda said.
***********
“So where is the party held?” she asked.
“At Carlos’ place,” she said.
Amanda remained quiet.
“Sorry about that, I have not introduced you to my friends,” said Zila.
“So you guys are friends since when?” Amanda asked.
Zilla took a left turn on the road.
“Since childhood Daniel and I are best friends since kindergarten. Liam and Xavier are best friends, you will never find them fighting. There are more friends I will introduce tonight,” said Zilla.
Amanda took a deep breath.
“Finally, there is someone here who wants to talk to me,” she said thought.
Zila was singing while driving and she looked so happy when her expression changes as if she saw something or someone in the middle of the road.
She pushed the brakes and Amanda’s head hit the dashboard.
“Ouch, Zila, what are you doing?” Amanda said while starching her forehead with her palms but Zila was on the other hand looking so pale and her eyeballs were so broad due to fear.
“Hey Zila, are you okay?” she asked while shaking Zila, dragging her back to reality.
Tears started falling from Zila’s eyes.
“Hey, what happened?” asked Amanda.
“I saw her. I saw her,” Zilla muttered.
“Hey, calm down, take deep breath,” Amanda said while hugging her.
Zilla was taking a breath heavily.
Amanda hugs her tightly.
“Calm down, it’s temporary,” Amanda whispers because she knew Zila got a panic attack.
After a while Zilla got normal.
She took a deep breath.
“What happened to you?” Amanda asked.
Zila smiled.
“Never speak of it again,” Zila said. There was something in her voice that made Amanda quiet.
There was an awkward silence between them.
“Amanda,” called out Zilla.
“Yeah,” Amanda whispered.
“Thanks for everything,” she said.
She smiled and hugged her.
“Anytime Zila,” she said.
“Don’t tell about this to anyone,” said Zila.
Amanda nods.
She started driving again.
**********
The house was filled with guests. Music was playing loud.
“Whoa, this is so fun,” said Zila and she started dancing.
“Hey, come back,” Amanda called out.
“She should attend those dance classes with that jerk,” Amanda muttered.
“Someone is on the muse,” she heard someone whisper in her ear making her startled. She turned her head, it was Liam and he was smirking at her.
“Long time no sees, Huston, White, Sinclair,” said Liam.
“How do you know?” she asked, shocked.
His brown eyes narrowed and bends on her a bit. Those big brown eyes had a fire in them. She felt her heart rushed.
“Different surnames? Written on your damn biography,” He said.
“You have gone through my biography?” she asked, disappointed.
“New girl, better check,” he said.
“Damn Liam, could you and your asshead friend leave everything about me alone,” she said, disappointed.
“I am sorry but Xavier’s order to do it,” he said.
She gasped.
“That bully, so he spread the news in the school that I got the longest name in school and teachers are calling me different names,” she said, annoyed.
“Liam,
finally, you are here,” she turned and shocking beauty was standing in front of her, Carlos Onosis. He was tall 6ft.1inches and leaner muscular.
He head off towards Liam and Bro hugged him.
“Who is this pretty girl?” he asked while turning towards Amanda.
“Liam’s is that your girl?” asked Carlos.
“No absolutely not. I am not anyone’s girl here. I am here with my friends Daniel and Zila. Now excuse me, I have to find my friends,” she said while putting her hand on Carlos’ chest in order to keep her distance.
He laughs and nods his head in no. He had a cute little dimple on his right cheek.
“Sure,” he said while looking into her eyes. There was indeed a whole sea in his deep oceanic blue eyes.
She head off towards the place where Zila was dancing minutes ago.
“Where she is gone,” she thought and looked around but neither Zila nor Daniel was there.
“Looking for someone beauty?” someone said in her right ear. She had gone startled and looked up. It was Eliot, the football Capitan of another school.
She does not want to end up in this mess.
“No one,” she said and walked off.
“Hey Amanda,” she Daniel’s voice.
She turned, he was standing in the middle of a crowd and he was drinking something.
“Oh hey Daniel,” she said.
“Come on, let you introduce me to my friends,” he said.
She nods and walked with him.
They headed towards the corner where the squad of a few boys was standing.
“Hey guys, let me introduce you to my friend,” he said.
Amanda looked around, Liam, Carlos, and Xavier were standing there and there was a new guy as well, a guy she did not meet yet.
“We already have met her,” said Carlos, and mischievous was dancing in his Ocean eyes.
“Well, I must say your girlfriend is pretty,” said Carlos.
She looked at him.
“I am not his girlfriend,” she apathetic.
“Oh really? I think he got better taste then,” said Xavier.
“What is your problem, Allen,” she asked while looking into his eyes.
“You,” he said in a whisper that only she can hear and then he walked off.
She stared at his broad back.
“Hey Amanda, you want to try gin?” asked a guy sitting in the corner with Carlos.
“Try what?” she asked, shocked.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know about this,” he said.
“Sorry, I don’t drink,” she said, smiling.
He raised his hand in the air.
“Date me,” he said while leaning on her. She felt blood rush through her face.
“Mason, not a good approach to flirt,” said Carlos and pushed him aside, he chuckled.
“My lady, I am sorry on his behalf,” he said while bowing to her.
She took a few steps back and both men laughs. It took a few seconds for her to understand their jokes.
She laughs.
“You guys are so cool,” she said, smiling.
“Well, I know I am the coolest one,” said Mason while winking.
She felt the blood rush through her cheek again. These boys were something, the most handsome, seductive, and breathtaking.
“Hey Amanda, take this, you will like it,” said Zila who just arrived.
“Zila, where were you?” she asked while taking the glass from her hand. “What is inside it?” she asked.
“Don’t worry, I know you don’t drink, it’s juice,” Zila said.
“Zila, can I have some juice as well?” asked Carlos. His black hair was falling on his forehead.
She smirked.
“Only if I get eggplants,” she said.
He took a deep breath.
“Seeeee, I am thirsty,” she said.
The s****l tension could be felt in them.
“Carlos, honey,” said a tall girl who walked in, she had green eyes and silver blond hair. She walked ahead towards Carols and kissed him passionately. After a while, she break the kiss and looked at him in the eyes.
“The glass is empty my darling,” she said and showed the empty glass. He looked at Zila, she raised an eyebrow.
She clenched her teeth and headed towards him slowly.
She was looking into his eyes and there was tension that could be seen.
She raised her hand and touched his chest and fetch the bottle of jack daniels from the table behind him.
“Whoa,” escaped from his mouth.
She poured the drink into the glass, filling it full.
“Now the glass is full,” she said in a whisper. “Enjoy,” she said, clenching her teeth and walking away.
There was an awkward silence.
“What was that?” asked Amanda.
“They are like that,” said Daniel.
“You want some more drink?” he asked.
She nods and they walked off.
“Come on darling, I need to show you something,” said the girl and walked away with Carlos.
“So this is Amanda?” asked Mason.
“Yeah,” said Liam. “But Xavier and our people are not happy after she arrived here,” he added.
“But I like her,” said Mason with a smirk.
********
She was dancing with Daniel, happily.
“Whoa, Daniel, it is so much fun,” she said while dancing.
“I told you,” he said.
Just then Liam walked towards him and whispered something in his ear.
His expression changed.
“Amanda, go and find Zila and stay with her, I will be back,” Daniel said.
“But what happened?” she asked.
“Someone crash the party, we need to take care of this,” said Liam.
She nods and walked off.
“Come on Zila, where are you?” she muttered, and after a while, she found Zila in the kitchen. She was heavily drunk.
“Zila, oh God, why did you drink so much,” she said while holding her.
Zila laughs, hysterically.
“Mom, look what she says, she says why did I drink, why would I not?” she said while looking at the corner.
Amanda looks in the direction where Zila was looking, No one was there.
“Zila, come on, you have drunk so much,” she said and took her out of the kitchen.
“He hates me, I know,” said Zila.
“Who?” she asked.
“That potato ass, that carl…” she was about to complete her sentence when she collapse.
“Zila?” she said, disappointed.
Just then she saw Carlos passing by, he was holding a baseball bat.
“Carlos,” she called out. He rushed towards her.
“What happened?” he asked while checking on Zila. He looked concerned.
“She drunk again, seriously,” he said disappointed. “Take her upstairs towards my room. Someone really needs to learn their lesson tonight,” he said the last sentence under his breath.
He got up and walked off.
Amanda helped Zila get up and took her upstairs.
“Now where is his room,” she thought because there were more than five rooms.
“Excuse me, can you tell me where is Carlos’ room?” she asked the boy who standing near to stairs.
“Why? Are you his new fling?” he asked and chuckled. She looked at him, annoyed. He looked drunk.
“Shut up you bloom, if he dares to f**k anyone other than me I will cut off his junior,” Zilla said, annoyed. She looked trippy.
“The last room is his,” said the boy.
“Strange boy Carlos, he will do a threesome tonight,” the boy muttered and walked off.
“Hey,” Amanda tried to say something but Zila was about to puke.
“Hold on Zila,” said Amanda and took her to his room.
She helped her on the bed.
“Carlos, I will burn your junior and I will burn that witch alive with your junior if you dared to….” Zila screamed.
“Go to sleep Zila, you are tired,” said Amanda, disappointed.
Zila was about to puke.
“Amanda, please bring me some lemon, please,” she said.
“Hold on, I am going,” she said and walked out of the room.
“Where I will find lemons,” she muttered. She looked around in order to find Carlos as this was his house and only he could tell.
“Where are they?” she said, disappointed. None of the boys were there. Just then his gaze fell on Xavier. He was going inside the room with some girl.
“I can ask this jerk, after all, he is his friend,” she said and walked after him. He shuts the door.
Amanda was a bit away.
She rushed towards the room when her skirt got stuck in the grill. She was freeing herself, annoyed.
“Great, this must happen,” she said, disappointed.
After freeing herself she ahead towards the room where Xavier went.
She opened the door and the next thing she saw would be the last she wanted to see at all. Xavier was holding a girl from the waist and he was kissing her passionately.
She had opened the door with a thud and that made them distract and they were now looking at her with heavy breaths. The girl was in her undergarments while Xavier was wearing only paints.
His six-packs were so appealing. His body was sweaty.
He clenched his teeth.
“Have ever heard of knocking on the door?” he asked, angrily.
“Where is Carlos, I was here to ask about him,” she said while looking away. She was avoiding watching this view.
He walked towards her slowly and she felt her heart dropped down to her stomach.
“Now I got it, someone wants to get screwed,” he said in a whisper. She felt as if he just slapped her.
“Shut up, Allen,” she snapped.
A smirk appeared on his face. She looked at the girl and then at him.
“We all know who really wants to get f****d. Enjoy,” she said and shut the door again.
“f*****g moron, what he thinks he is,” she said, annoyed.
“Are you Amanda?” someone called her name.
She nods.
“Carlos and Daniel are looking for you in the common room,” said the boy who had braces on his teeth.
She nods.
“Where is it?” she asked and he point towards the second room.
She head towards the room and opened it.
“Carlos, I need lemons…” She was about to complete her sentences when she saw ahead the boy who was standing was not Carlos, not at all.
“Hello doll,” said the boy. She met him an hour ago. He was a high school captain from a different school, Eliot. He looked like a big bully.
She took a few steps back and went to open the door again because her six senses were alarming her.
The door was closed as if someone had shut it from outside.
“No escape this time, honey,” he said and grabbed her.
