Red Blood Sky

Chapter 2: Now

It was Spring 2022, in Beaverton Oregon. Where the weather was just right most of the time. Rosemary Tone, a 17 year old girl who only lived in this town since she was 8. She was an orphan since that age, her parents sadly passed away, so she ended up in an Orphanage in Beaverton. It took her 4 years to finally get picked by a loving family, a man and his wife but it would turn out that the man had cancer. She was heartbroken to lose another father, so it was just her and her foster mother. She was always curious on how her parents passed away so suddenly, never made it home, and suddenly died. The police wouldn't say anything because of her age. Rosemary didn't have family, her mothers parents died of old age. And her fathers mother she never met, because of the way she treated him.
She Loved going out in Whispering woods, sitting with nature and enjoying the weather. She'd always bring her sketchbook and start sketching the trees, the sky, better yet the little creatures that would sit there ready to be sketched by Rosemary. This was her safe place, her room was too. It was either in the mornings before school or in the evenings after school, where she would come to this place.
It was lunch time, Rosemary would be outside for lunch like usual with her small group of friends. Lisa and Clarissa have been friends with her since junior high.
"So there's a party tonight, I already talked to Clarissa about it last hour. So now it's just you to ask, so are you down Rosey?" Lisa would ask, smiling. It was Lisa's thing to go out and be a party animal, especially hooking up with hot guys.
"Depends on where." Rosemary would take a bite out of her apple, as she looks at both Clarissa and Lisa.
"Well, it's actually out in Whispering woods. It's gonna be in jacks cabin." Clarissa would say with a shrug.
"And hot guys will be there, maybe you'll find a cute guy for prom." Lisa would say with a laugh.
"Proms not till 5 months" Rosemary would point out "but I guess I'll go to the party it's not like I'm busy anyways."
Lisa and Clarissa would high-five each other with a huge grin on their face, knowing all three of them are gonna get fucked up tonight. It was mostly their thing every party. Lisa loves drinking cause it gives her an extra pleasure, Clarissa loves drinking because it adds more activeness to her energy, Rosemary on the other hand loved drinking away her problems every party, she felt loose and more groovy then she would feel in a normal setting.
Lunchtime would now be over Rosemary, Lisa, and Clarissa would head to their class. Departing with goodbyes, like usual class goes smoothly for the three. Before the school-day comes to an end, they say their goodbyes once again before driving home in their car.
Rosemary walks inside her home before heading up to her room, setting everything down and scrolling through social media for a bit before setting down the phone and thinking on what to wear to this party. After a few hours of doing what she needed to do around the house, chilling, taking a shower. She  rummaged through her closet, picking out a black long sleeve shirt that would show her cleavage mostly that would also be cropped to show half of her stomach. Black shorts, making her curves pop. She would also make sure to add black tights so she won't be too cold. She paired the outfit with black combat boots that would have some silver on it, the boots would make her an inch taller. She added a choker with a sliver heart and medium sized hoops. She made sure her curls were moisturized, before texting Lisa and asking for the address. Once Rosemary got the text she walked out the house and got in her car. Her foster mother not her problem right now because she was at work and usually comes home late at night. Rosemary drove to the location after picking up Clarissa and Lisa.
"I'm so excited!" Lisa would say with excitement in her voice.
"I heard that this party is about to be the best, Jack has access to alcohol and drugs." Clarissa would add.
"Oh hell no, don't even think about going anywhere near those drugs miss Clarissa you too Lisa." Rosemary would say laughing.
"Oh I won't." Lisa said.
"Neither will I, I promise." Clarissa said holding up her pinky. Rosemary would lock their pinkies together.
"Alright, we're here." Rosemary would park the car before turning it off and getting out along with her friends. The three of them would walk inside together.
