The Moons Darkside

Chapter One | Party Life

It was dark in the forest; he led me in the wooded terrain to an open floor, and the moon was overlooking us. I felt his cold hands lace up my body. His breath quickened my heart, and his red eyes weakened my knees. '

"Do you trust me?"

A knock on the wooden door made Tara close her book and walk to see her best friend outside the door. "What do you need, Liv?"Tara said, opening the door to her best friend with a dress in her arms. She had her short dress that dipped, making her cleavage poke out. Liv's hair was straight, framing her face, and her makeup was dark. She pushed Tara aside and sat on her couch in her one-bedroom apartment.

"I'm here to take you out," Liv said, throwing her a dress, a short satin green dress.

I'm not going out; I'm busy. I got homework, "Tara said, crossing her arms.

"Well, I don't care; get your ass to the bathroom and get all dolled up; it will be an amazing night.Please."Liv said she was practically begging her to, sounding so sweet and innocent. Tara rubbed her eyes. She took a deep breath and walked to her bathroom.

"You are so annoying," Tara said, slamming the door, and Liv squealed and lay on her best friend's couch. Liv scrolled through her phone the whole time Tara got ready.

'Hey, love, I can't wait to see you.' Allen texted her. She smiled, closed her phone, and Liv got up from the couch, walking to see her best friend dressed up. She was wearing the dress she gave her and some black heels. The hair was out of her bun; giving Tara some waves, she did a light spin, seeing her best friend at the door.

"Hey, like you and Allen are still a thing. Liv said as the two girls walked out of the apartment and onto the street into Liv's car.

"Yeah, he has been my boyfriend for like a year!"Tara said, getting into the car and driving to the frat house. Allen's frat house "You said you were going to have fun! Frat parties are never fun. Tara said. Liv turned off the engine, and the girls got out of the car to the beat of music blaring out of the house.

"Says the girls' who's boyfriend, the literal king of frat parties," Liv said, pushing her shoulder, and the two girls started laughing. They walk through the front door, cramming inside. Everybody was jumping around in the living room, and it was so packed that you had to walk sideways to get into the kitchen and see all the frat members making drinks.

"Allen!"Tara said as she walked up to the group of guys; Allen looked like he would be a buff gym rat-looking guy. a hat backward and topless. She puts her hands on his shoulder and looks up at him, biting her lip.

"Hey, babe." Allen quickly moves over to Liv and smiles, and she smiles back at him. She folds her arms and lifts her tits. Tara tilts her head, and her attention gets drawn to a jug full of random booze. She grabs a red cup and drinks the sweet and boozy drink. She finished her drink and held Liv's hand, Allen talked to one of his friends, and Liv was in a complete daze.

"Liv, we came to the party, not sit around." Tara grabbed her hand and led her to a crowded dance floor. They both smile and laugh at the loud music. Some guys started to grind on Liv, but she didn't care. Tara was dancing around to the crummy music. Her eyes gazed around the frat house. The smell of smoke and lousy liquor filled her lungs, and a display of colored LED lights hung from the tall ceilings. Her eyes followed through the crowd till she found someone.

Someone who was angry and out of place. He had his arms crossed, and he wasn't smiling. His hair was pushed back away from his face, and a few strands covered his eyes. He had tattoos running down his arms. Although he had a tall frame, everyone in the crowd ignored him.

On the other hand, Tara couldn't help but look at him. Something in her body changed. It got warm and fuzzy. She tried to find Liv, but she was missing just a second ago she was dancing right next to her then she vanished. How could she disappear?

She tries to run to the kitchen, wondering if she is getting another drink. She walked down the hall, checking on all the bathrooms, wondering where her friend had gone. She asked if she was upstairs. She quickly climbed to the top floor and walked around. All the bedroom doors were locked shut except Allen's. She goes to the door and finds Liv on his bed and him taking off all her clothes. He was kissing her body. And she was moaning like a pornstar.

In such a state. Tara runs down the steps, tumbling a bit and bumping into some guy. "S-Sorry."She runs out, warm tears spilling on her face; she makes it to a crosswalk, not noticing the speeding car. She was about to cross the street. But someone grabbed her arm, and she fell on her ass, looking up from the sidewalk. She looked up to see the mysterious boy. Tara's heart fluttered.

Seth

"Milo, I swear I'm not going to a stupid house party," Seth said, looking at his best friend. They were in his apartment; Seth was getting a beer in the kitchen.

"There's going to be some babes."Milo pleaded. "And alcohol, so please, can we go." He pleaded with puppy eyes as he looked at him. Seth had his arms crossed.

"Why do I even bother with you," Seth said, grabbing his belongings and car keys off the hook, and they walked to the garage with his cars. They get in his car and drive to the party's location. He moves a few blocks down, and they get out of the vehicle. It was jammed packed in the house.

"Trust me, Seth, you'll be thanking me that you came," Milo said, looking around. The front of the house wasn't as busy as the inside. Milo and Seth looked around. Seth was getting annoyed by the second. He turned to talk to Milo, but he wasn't there; he disabled into the crowd. He looked around and found a girl in a green dress dancing; her hair was curled, and she was wearing heels. She was dancing to the music. Seth couldn't help but look at this girl. Something inside him wanted to talk to her. But she disappeared before he could; he stayed in the hallway, clearly pissed at Milo for bringing him.

Seth felt something run down his back; he turns to see the girl leave the house. He quickly chases after her. His legs were moving on their own as he chased after the girl. She was crossing the street when he reached her and grabbed her wrist, bringing her in front of him to the ground.

"Hi!?"The girl said, looking at him

"Hi," Seth said, looking at the girl

"You saved me."The girl got up and fixed her dress.

"I saw you were running out of the party, and I just followed you," Seth said, crossing his arms. "Why did you run out of there, then almost get killed."He grinned a little

"I didn't almost get killed."The girl pouted.

"Well then, is getting killed a normal thing for you, Missy," Seth said as they began to walk back to the house.

The girl huffed in anger. "I caught my boyfriend cheating on me with my best friend."The girl said

"I'm sorry to hear that."Seth looked at her; she held her arms close like she was cold."My name is Seth, by the way."

"I'm Tara."
