The First Time

Chapter 2- Party Invitation

Finally. The end of the school day. It's also Friday! I like to remind myself of happy things such as this. They make me... Well happy.

I head out to the parking lot to see Troy and Kayla flirting it up on his car. She is propped up on the hood and he is leaned over her. They aren't kissing. It's more of like laughing and smiling against each other. They're truly adorable. What kind of friend would I be to interrupt this... Nah. I decided to go sit at the same table we ate breakfast at earlier and wait.

~10 minutes go by~
I'm starting to not get okay with this. Can't they flirt with each other some other time? I want to get home! I pull out my phone and text Troy.

"-Hey, when do you wanna leave?-"

I watch as he reaches for his phone reads the text and starts saying his goodbyes to Kayla.

"YES." I thought to my self. I finally can go home. I have a ton of homework I need to get started on! Or I can wait until Sunday... I'll figure it out later.

I waited until Kayla had walked away before I headed for the car and got in.

"Sorry about that."

"Oh, no it's fine. That table was comfy anyway."

He chuckled at me as we headed for my house.

"Hey, Trent is having a party tonight and invited us." He said excitedly.

"Awesome! I love Trent. What kind of party?"

"Ehh.... It's a couples party.. But I don't want to bring Kayla."

"Why not?"

"Well, we just started talking. And these kind of parties can get heated. I'm not about to ruin what we just started."

That's understandable I guess. I just looked at him and nodded like it made sense.

We got to my house and I got out of the car.

"Brooke!" I turned around to him calling my name.

"Yeah?"

"Can I hang here for a little bit? My parents might kill me if I come home right now."

I understood what he meant and let him come in. We head up to my room and he sits down on the love seat couch in the corner of my room.

Not even thinking, I take my skinny jeans off right in front of him and put on some black Soffee shorts.

"Woah!" He cat calls out.

I wasn't that embarrassed it's not like he counts as a real guy anyway. Right? He's a friend. Friends don't count. I had to think of something to say and not sound stupid and quick! "What? First time you've seen a half naked girl before?"

"Other than you? No." He laughed and threw a pillow at me.

I grabbed a huge throw pillow off my bed and started swinging at him. He grabbed my arm and flipped me over putting me on the floor.

"That's cheating! You can't physically touch me when we're pillow fighting."

"Sorry squirt." He yelled as he pinned me to the ground.

I can't believe he called me squirt! We all have names we've been nicknamed when we were kids right? Well mines squirt. Who wants to be called squirt?

"Why would you call me that!" I said while sticking my tongue out. I was hoping we were close enough I could lick his face and get him off of me. What? I had no other part of me that could move. You make do with what you have. Luckily my plan worked and he jumped off of me faster than his driving.

"I hate when you do that Brooke!" He said while laughing and wiping off his face. Which only made me laugh more than I already was.

"No, you love it. Don't lie to yourself." I said sarcastically.

We sit down on the couch and turn on the tv.

"What time is this party?" I asked Troy and hoping he wasn't really pissed at me for the licking face incident.

"Umm... I think 9. It's like 4 right now." He said while looking at me expecting me to know what to do.

"Let's watch Netflix?"

He smiled at me and said "okay!"

I turned on our favorite scary movie, 'A Haunting In Connecticut.' And of course I was crying like a baby at the first scary part. I ran to my bed and grabbed a couple blankets and ran back to the couch. I was so far into Troys lap I was practically sitting on him.

"I swear Brooke, you get more scared every time we watch this."

"I'm sorry! It's just scary!"

"Don't be sorry, I think it's funny." He says this and wraps an arm around me.

Thank god he did this. His arm kept me from jumping out of my skin a few times.

I soon fell asleep and woke up to Troy shaking me.

"What?" I said angrily.

"The movies over."

"Oh, I fell asleep didn't I?" I said while yawning.

"Yeah, it's only 7. We have like 2 hours left." He said hoping I would have another idea of what to do.

"Well I need to get ready anyway."

"Why? Just go in what you're wearing."

"Um, show up to a party like this? Haha You're funny." I said while going through my closet.

I eventually found the perfect outfit. A pair of white shorts, a dark blue tank top and sandals. I put it on and walk out and model in front of Troy.

"Whatcha think?" I said trying to be funny.

"You look great!" He said trying to be a smart allic.

I reached down and punched him saying, "seriously, is this outfit okay?"

"Yeah, you look really good Brooke." He was really sweet for once. He's usually like 'ew' or 'you really want to wear that?'

We have the strangest friendship. But it's the friendship that I love the most about us.

It was about 830 and Troy decided to head for the party. I'm not sure why he wants to leave so early. He drives so fast we wouldn't be late even if we left at 9!

We arrive at the party, obviously early. And Trent greets us at the door.

"Is that a party I smell!?" Trent screeches out as he hugs me and shakes Troy's hand. We head inside and wait for the party to officially start.
