Complicated

Chapter 6

After a very long morning I'm pleased to be heading to lunch. When I walk into the cafeteria it's at its usual self; loud and crowded. Ignoring the jostling of the student body, I find my table of friends and take a seat next to Brad.

"Hey, Chica," Brad greets me.

"Hey, Chico," I laugh at his expression. It's a mixture of stunned and happy.

"At least someone I know takes Spanish." I laugh at his response. I'm pretty much only taking the language to get my credit for college. I hate it with a passion.

"Well, if you guys are done flirting, are you coming to the party tonight?" Hailey asks. Party? I didn't hear anything about a party.

"A party?" I question as I shove a chip with cheese on it, in my mouth.

"Yup, it's Friday night girlie, there's a party." Hailey laughs.

Hmm? I've never actually been to a real party. I mean little ones when I was in middle school. But other than that, never a high school party.

"Whose party?" I have to ask.

Everybody goes silent. I raise my eyebrows and everybody looks down at there food. "Will you just tell me whose throwing the damn party?"

"Gavin." Tammy blurts out. My face goes blank and I stare at my once friends. They all know I'm not allowed to go near Gavin. My brother will kill me.

"You guys, you know my brother will never let me go." I sigh. Hailey nods sadly. I know what she's trying to do and it's not working.

"Sorry for asking. I just thought maybe you'd want to go to a party." She shrugs.

Her head bows and I feel guilt seep into my veins. Why do I have to have such a good personality?

"Fine I'll go." I groan and everybody cheers. At my table, I mean.

"Yay. Tammy and I will be over to get ready with you." Hailey explains and Tammy agrees.

We all go into discussion on the plan for the party tonight, and I'm not looking forward to it.

"You have to wear this!" Tammy screeches. We've been looking in my closet for a dress for about an hour. I have no party dresses.

"Ugh! You have no clothes." Hailey complains.

"I know." I stuff my head into my pillow.

"Ooo, I found one!" Tammy yells. I lift my head to see her holding a dark blue skin tight dress with a sweet heart neckline. I stare at it in disbelief.

"I don't remember getting that." I say.

I think back to the time Rosalie and I went shopping and seeing that dress on display. I guaranteed Rosalie that I was never going to wear it but she insisted I get it. I'm mentally thanking her now.

"Put it on." Hailey orders.

I slide off my bed and walk over to where Tammy is standing holding my dress. I walk into my bathroom and change into the piece of clothing. It fits perfectly. The tight fabric really shows off my curves and my average bust. My boobs aren't to big and neither is my butt. They are average for my body.

"You look amazing!" Both girls squeak in excitement. They immediately get to work on straightening my hair and doing my makeup.

An hour later all of us are ready and heading downstairs. Only to be stopped by my brother with a scowl on his face.

"Your not going to Johnson's party." He pointedly says.

"Guys I'll meet you out in the car." They nod and I wait until the are out of the house to continue talking. "It's just one party. I probably won't even see him."

"Bella." he whines. "Your not going alone."

"Of course I'm not going alone, all my friends are coming. And you just saw Hailey and Tammy." I reason.

"No, I mean your not going with out me." He's kidding right? Tell me his kidding. Everyone is going to make fun of me. I can't have my brother babysit me at a party.

"Devon, I'll be fine. I promise."

"I'm going anyway." He says. I groan and head out to Tammy's car. I get in the back seat.

"How'd it go?" Tammy asks.

"Devon's coming, to baby sit me." I explain.

I know what everyone is going to think. That I still need my big brother to baby sit me at a harmless high school party. I don't want to be the laughing stock of the school.

I've never had to worry about this when I lived with my dad. Well, mostly because I didn't go to any parties but I never had my dad butting into my 'dating life'. He never followed me around at school or told me who I should and shouldn't date. Like a certain someone I know.

"Let's just have fun, okay?" Hailey reasons with me. I take her words into consideration. How am I supposed to have fun with my brother there? I can't necessarily avoid him. I'll think of somethings guess.

"Okay." We both agree.

When we pull up to Gavin's house I'm in shock. His house is huge. Not like mansion huge but it's definitely bigger than my small little house.

All three of us are in shock as we take in the outside of Gavin's house.

Finally I speak up, "Wow."

"Yea." Tammy and Hailey say in unison.

We get out of the car after minutes of gawking and I see red solo cups litter the grass, people making out and others just throwing up or passed out. Yuck.

The inside is way worse. Teenagers groping each other against the walls and on the dance floor. There's grinding and it reeks of sweat and alcohol. Another yuck.

"Let's find the drinks first. To get loose." I suggest. The girls nod and we head through the massive house and to the kitchen. There's not as many people in there and I hadn't noticed how before I felt so claustrophobic.

I go to the wine cooler and take out the vodka pouring each girl a cup.

Fifteen minutes later I'm on my third cup and dancing with some random dude I don't know. My back side is against his chest as my hips swing to the music.

I'm just glad I don't see my brother anywhere. If he's even here. Probably hooking up with somebody.

"Let's go somewhere else." The anonymous male breaths in my ear. My eyes go wide and my breath hitches.

"I'm okay." I say. I try walking away but he grabs my arm and drags me through the crowd and up the stairs.

He throws me into a dark room and I hear the door lock. What have I gotten myself into?

Help me.

Ooo guess you should've listened to your brother and stayed at home. Oopsies. Lmao. So I hope you guys like the story so far. Enjoy.
