Party

Instead of spending the evening day dreaming about Clyde like I'd planned, I allowed myself get dragged to a party I didn't want to attend. I knew I'd regret it. Every time, I changed my mind, something always went wrong. Why would it be different this time? After hours of preparation, Beck came to take us to the off campus house party in his super cool sports car. As expected, his girlfriend Kelsey sat on the passenger seat while the three of us occupied the back seats.

The house was huge, more of a mansion. When the car stopped, those of us in the back had to get over before Kelsey could lean close to Beck for a kiss. None of us wanted to see that. We knew just how far they could go in a very short time.

While we got some air, we studied the vicinity. The house had a nice garden and an immaculate compound. After a short while, Kelsey and Beck joined us.

"Let's go in and party," she yelled.

The party was normal,  like every other off campus party but it wasn't themed like most I'd gone to. The moment we entered, we sort of dispersed. Nina and Ruby went to find guys to hook up with while I stood awkwardly, taking in the atmosphere. I was starting to wish I was back in my room watching a movie. I always got left alone at parties. Why did my friends even bother to insist that I come with them so they could abandon me? They knew how hard it was for me to make new friends or talk to people I didn't know.

I decided to start off with a drink but as I made my way through the few early birds around, a familiar looking someone blocked my way.

"Have I seen you before?" He peered into my eyes. I frowned, shaking my head because I couldn't remember him yet he seemed quite familiar. Then it hit me! I saw him at LaFun. He was the boy Clyde and his friends didn't like. What's his name again? Chris. Bad luck seemed to be following me. 

Clyde had warned me about him so I had to be careful. 

"No," I answered defiantly. "I have never seen you. Get out of my way."

"Now I remember," he smirked. "You're Clyde's girl, right? I saw you with him."

Could someone please increase the music volume? I really didn't want to talk to this guy. He was bad news according to Clyde.

"Clyde?" I narrowed my eyes. "Who is Clyde? I don't know anyone called Clyde."

"Clyde Dune," he grinned. "Stop pretending. You're not a little girl anymore so grow up and act like an adult. This is not kindergarten."

"I don't know Clyde so stop wasting my time. " I tried to turn away but he pulled me back. I tried to shake my arm off in vain.

"Liar," he said, making me face him. 

"Call me whatever you want," I retorted. "I don't know you so I don't really care. Go and trouble someone else as you're clearly mistaken."

"So bold, I like that." he laughed, sipping his drink while peering at me over the glass. "It seems Clyde and I have one thing in common. We like the same type of girls."

"I don't know what you're- " I didn't finish my sentence because a light brown haired girl squeezed herself into the space between us. That's when I made my escape but I was to realize it was short-lived. As soon as I got a can of Natty Light, I ran into him again. I rolled my eyes, shaking my head. 

"Leave me alone, Satan." I told him as I passed by. 

"Satan?" He chuckled, following me as I headed to the exit. "Now that's an interesting name. I think I like it."

"Whatever."

I didn't feel like being inside the house  anymore. I had not wanted to go to the party but I'd been dragged by my friends. I regretted listening to them. I could be in my bed watching a movie or fantasizing about Clyde. Since I could not go to my dorm, I decided to go outside, sit in a quiet spot and drift into dream land. When would I ever learn from my mistakes? I had to stop letting my friends influence me even though I lived them. I needed to live my life on my own terms.

Unfortunately, I was unable to get any peace. Chris followed me like a predator which was quite weird for a handsome boy like him. I was that his interest in me was not romantic. What did he want from me?

"I'm Chris," he said when we exited the house.

"I don't remember asking for your name. Stop following me around, you creep."

"But you were dying to know, right?"

"No."

"Clyde must have told you my name and I'm sure he warned you to stay away from me. Why else would you try to avoid a hot guy like me?"

"You think you're hot?" I faked surprise and laughed.

"Tell me what Clyde told you?" He looked serious this time. He was so cute when he was serious. I could stare at him forever. His smile was even better.

"Like what you see?" I hadn't realized I was staring.

I didn't answer him.

"I'll take that as a yes," He grinned. "You're really pretty and cool.I'm sure lots of people want you. Why do you stick to that bastard Clyde. What's so good about him? Why don't you leave that useless prick?"

Without intending, my palm came into contact with his face. How dare he insult Clyde like that? The look on his face forced me to run into the house. I wasn't safe outside with him.

Would I be safer inside? My heart raced. Why did I come to this stupid party. I should have listened to Clyde when he told me to take care of myself. I shouldn't have talked to Chris. I looked behind me and there he was!

Chris was going to kill me.

    On Friday night I received a call from Kim inviting to their family picnic. Although I was not very close to Clyde's family, I always tagged along because of Kim's consistent invitations. We used to be like peas in a pod when Clyde and Keri were dating. In most of their family picnics, two members outside the family were supposed to be invited as a rule. To make the occasion more lively, Clyde and Kim had to invite a close friend of theirs to join. I admired that family tradition of theirs.Kim always chose me because she said I was her best friend though she wasn't my best. We were super close though not in the way I was close to friends I wasn't related to. Clyde always came with Louis or his other friends. Before my first kiss with Clyde I'd always loved the picnics because it gave me a chance to hang out with the guy I was crushing on.This time I wasn't thrilled at all. I had not been with his family since we kissed and I knew awkwardness was g

    After exiting the room, I immediately dialled Chris's number."Hello," I said."Hey Shannon. Are you okay? You don't sound well."I wiped my face with my palm. "I'm not okay.""What's it, baby? What has happened?""Can we meet?""I'm going to the campus right now," I said. "Can we meet at Somi's cafe?"I got there before he did. He walked in when I was sipping my iced tea. We spent a lot of time talking about normal student issues for semester tests were starting in a week and the atmosphere was changing. Most students were becoming serious and during the night, there were few people in clubs and bars around Campus."Why are you so nice to me?" I asked Chris as I gulped the last of my iced tea. Chris couldn't even finish a cup of iced tea because he preferred coffee. It was the third I'd drank since I entered the cafe."Because you

    I found myself outside Clyde's apartment two days later. I'm not entirely sure what took me there. Either it was my undying love for him or guilt. I took a deep breath and knocked.Louis opened the door and shot me a death glare, "What do you want, Shannon?""Hello to you too, Louis." I smiled. "I hope you're having a good day. I come in?""I was until you arrived," He raised an eyebrow. "Are you spying on us?"I laughed, "Come on, Louis. Why would I do something like that? Don't be ridiculous.""Chris sent you, didn't he?" He studied me, still blocking the way in. How frustrating!"Of course not. I just felt like seeing Clyde. Can I go in now.""He's your sister's ex," he said."So what? Can't I see my sister's ex if we're friends? What the hell is wrong with you? This doesn't concern you at all.""You can't kiss him. Especia

    Chris's lips met mine. My mind was telling me it was wrong and I should stop yet my body ached for more of him. I kissed him back, enjoying the sweet feeling that arose from the connection of our lips. Desire raged through my whole body as the kiss became steamy.He disconnected his lips from mine and they dropped kisses along my jawline and downwards to my neck. His right hand went under my top caressing my tummy which tightened and arched at the contact. His gentle touch and kisses left me craving more. I didn't think I'd ever get enough.I pulled away and lifted up his shirt so he could remove it. He froze for a second but smiled, and pulled it off his head. He was lean but he had well defined abs. I smiled, tracing my fingers along the lovely tattoos on his smooth but hard skin."They're awesome," I told Chris who was not listening because he was too busy trying to get my top off. It finally went over my head and landed on

    "I can't believe this," Kelsey said, placing the battery on the table. It was the only thing in the phone that survived intact. She grabbed a broom and collected the remaining pieces of my phone. "Even after knowing that you have a boyfriend, Chris is still after you? How did you get so lucky, my friend?""And he's gonna get you a phone? Just like that?""Is there something you're not telling us?" Ruby asked. She bent over to unbuckle her brown flats. "We're your friends, you know."I studied the girls' faces and they seemed to share the same opinion. Anyone could tell they were highly suspicious by their smiles and that was not good for me at all. Maybe they had already talked about me behind my back.Shit!"Alright," I sighed. "The thing is they don't like each other at all. They're kind of enemies.""So you knew Chris before that party?" Nina asked unwrapping a bar of chocolate. She took a g

  • Forbidden Bliss   Get out

    Fury swept over me the moment Clyde mentioned Chris. I broke away and went to sit on my bed. This wasn't how I wanted things to go. If he wanted us to work out, he had to put his little feud aside."I can't just stop talking to him."Clyde glared at me. "What? Why not?""He seems to be a good person," I reasoned. "He'd be hurt if I just stopped talking to him. We're kind of friends now.""So you wanna please him and hurt me? Wow that's really great, Shannon. Thank you for being so considerate. I love you so much more now.""Stop being dramatic. I'm not trying to hurt you," I explained. "Just because you hate Chris doesn't mean I should hate him. I don't even know what happened between you guys. Why should I get involved?""You don't know because it's none of your business." Clyde came to sit next to me. I let him hold my hand. "All you need to know is he's not what he makes you thin
