Slave to the Geek (Discontinued)

Chapter 5: Poison

Elle, Violet and I were lying down in a circle on my bedroom floor, counting the glow in the dark stars that where pasted to my ceiling. We could practically hear the crickets chipping in the background. The boredom was eating away at our brain cells.

"Let's get out of here." Violet said and we turned to face her hoping for a way out of this hell.

"Where do we go?" Elle asked.

"Well I know for a fact that Derek is throwing a party tonight." Violet smirked sitting into upright position.

"Yeah, a party we are not invited to." I snorted, propping up on my elbows.

"Oh please do you seriously think that with all the shit load of people that are gonna be there tonight. Derek is going to notice that we crashed the party Rori." She stated in a matter-of-factly way.

"That true," She took a pause. "I think it's a good idea. We should go it'll be fun." Ellie pitched in, excitedly.

"I don't know guys; I don't think it's a good idea." I said biting my lip nervously.

"Come on, we'll all dress real nice. No one is going to know or recognize you." Violet said standing up and heading into my closet. I quickly rushed in after her.

"Alex will! And he is going to be there tonight for sure." I said leaning on my closet door.

"And he won't say anything because you both have an agreement." She replied turning to face me with her hands on her hips.

"Please Rori! Let's go," Elle practically begged from behind me. I felt my resolve weaken and I sighed.

"Fine!" I said looking for a dress to wear.

"Yay!" They both squeaked in unison. I let Violet and Elle borrow dresses to wear since they were both my size. Elle decided to wear a pastel pink skin tight dress with black elbow long gloves and black strappy heels. Violet on the other hand went with a strapless black dress that was tight at the waist but poofed out almost like a tutu. She wore sliver pumps with the dress.

I decided to go with a simple neckline dress that began light blue and gradually turned darker; it had small sleeves and a plunging neckline. I put on a pair of sparkly black pumps and some studded earrings. I let my hair fall in natural curls while I painted my lips a dark crimson red.

We all looked in the mirror one last time before heading out the door. Miles drove us to the party of course he dropped us off a block away. When we reached the two stories home light rays emanated through the windows and the music was blasting. I went up the steps of the house and opened the door only to reveal a very crowded living room full of people pressing their bodies up against each other as they danced. We quickly joined the crowd dancing our way through the dance floor.

"I'ma get us something to drink, do you guys want anything?" Violet yelled over the music.

"Beer!" Elle yelled back enthusiastically.

"Coke." I shouted and Violet nodded disappearing into the crowd.

Two hours later I sat on a couch that was moved into an empty hallway to make room for dancing in the living room. Joy, I thought sipping on my soda; I came to a party to sit on a couch and I don't even know where my friends went.

"Hey there." Someone said as they approach me. I squinting my eyes in the bad lighting to see Derek heading towards me.

"Hi." I said back looking up at him with a bored expression.

"What's a pretty girl such as you doing here all alone?" He asked smirking.

"Bored, that's what." I replied.
