Constrictor

Chapter 2

We walk to a group of people on the corner of a building.

"Hey guys!" Makayla say running over to the group preppy dressed people.

"I was just about to think you guys where a bunch of 'no shows'." A guy dressed in a green button up and khakis says. He's not as cute as Dylin but he's not ugly.

"Everyone... This is Heather" Makayla says pulling me under her arm.

"sup,I'm Caleb" he say now smiling.

"Hey" I sound like a child. Where did this 'shy' Heather come from? I'm always outspoken and rude most of the time.

"The two over there are Jake and Trina" Makayla says pointing at two people making out just outside of their friend group.

"I'm gonna go mingle, If you don't mind" Ashley say walking away straight for the coolers, which I asume are filled with cans full of beer.

"You want a drink Heather?" Dylin asks.

I didn't realize he was still on the other side of me. I was about to say 'no' but Makayla answers for me.

"Of course she does!" Makayla say shewing Dylin away.

He gives me a 'are you sure' look for my permission. He is so charming how could I have said no? I nod.

"Okay... I'll be right back" he says walking towards the cooler and table of drinks.

"So Heather, Where are you from?" Caleb say sipping whatever is in his red cup.

"Uh, Rochester" I say meeting his eyes. They're brown nothing to go crazy over.

"That's nice I hear that's where all the cereal killer's stay." his voice is serious.

I look horrified at the thought that my mom is there alone with no one to be there with her.

"I'm joking" he laughs.

"lighten up gurl" Makayla says nudging me. I give the most nervous laugh to let them know I'm fine.

I take a huge deep breath to relieve my self. Where is Dylin with my drink.

"Wow, who is this?" the guy who was just kissing asks.

"That, is Heather" Caleb answers. I feel my cheeks become red.

"Nice to meet you" the girl adds. "I'm Trina and this is Jake my boyfriend"

"You too" I reply trying not to sound much of a party pooper. Which I'm not. I use to throw tons of parties when I was in high school. I was the best at doing it too. No one could through a party like I did, but I did go to a private school.

"Here you go" Dylin say handing me a red solo cup.

I was about to ask what it was until I realized I had already sucked down half of the drink.

"Wow , Slow down that's Green Vesper." Makayla says trying her best to hold back her laugh.

"What?" I ask. I have got to stop asking so many questions. It makes me seem weak and naïve.

"Just don't drink too much" Dylin says winking at me.

I can't help but to blush, he is so hot.

"So what classes are you taking this semester?" Trina asks.

"American history, Biology, physics, and theatre." I say listing them on my fingers.

"Theatre?" Jake laughs.

"Yeah what about it?" I snap not realizing how rude that was.

"It's just that Mr. Cole... is something." He says not wanting to give me any information about my new teacher.
