Candy's Life

Chapter 5

---My Hero---

The week passed in a blink of an eye. Detention was horrible. Noah kept blabbering about how he hates being stuck with me in detention when it was completely my fault. I mean how is it my fault! He was the one who made our chemistry lab burn up.

  

   Today was friday and I couldn't help feeling sad. For the first time ever , I loved school. Alex and the guys made it so welcoming , unlike Noah who made me feel like I was shit , like I was nothing.

Noah.. It was weird how he was always on my mind even though I hate him. I hate his guts. I hate being around him. I hate the way he looks at me. I hate the way that his smile takes my breath away. I hate how his eyes have a sparkle that can light up my day. I hate his half smile that he throws my way each day in the hall way. I hate his freaking inviting lips. I hate him.

  "So there's a party tonight! You have to come!". Alex interupted me out of my thoughts. " A party? Sorry but im not a party person." It was true. After the incident I had always been skeptical about even going to school. I was always scared of that murderer showing up and killing his only witness. He thought im dead but the fact that the police are running after his tail kind of reveals that I am not.

" Oh common! You're alwats lost in that little head of yours and you always think ahead. I dont know why but one thing I know for sure is that you're 17! Loosen up abit! Live your life!" She tried convincing me and honestly it was kind of working. Yes, I didn't tell her about what happened with me. I havent told anyone. Thats why she is always trying to get me out and sociolize. Well.. thinking of the party.. I mean what could possibly go wrong? The nightmares  were occuring less than before. Maybe this would help me. Whats the worse that could happen? "Okay fine, but I have no idea of what to wear". Honestly I didnt have any clue. I wasnt a party girl and I had no idea of what could be an appropriate party outfit. "EEEKKKKK WERE GONNA HAVE SO MUCH FUNN!! I LOVEE YOUUU!!" She squeaked and I couldnt help but laugh.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

  Alex came home with me after school and I was currently dressed in a black mini skirt and a sky blue top. I hated heels. I'd never wear them in a million years and even after I tried explaining to Alex she still tryed convencing me into it but, no. I wore my blue vans and my makeup was light. It wasnt that much but it sealed the deal.

  As for Alex , I let her borrow clothes from me. She was wearing a tight black top which revealed her cleavage and a red skirt that was just above her knees. She matched them witg black heels and her makeup was perfect. She had red lipstick on and dark eyeshadow finished up with eyeliner which made her sky blue eyes pop out. I cant even deny how beautiful she looked.

When we arrived, the music was blasting and I could hear it from 2 miles away. There were people who already blacked out in the garden and it was like 8:30. People were already out of it. Oh wow! This party sure will be fun... Not.

" Lets get some drinks, I really need one" Alex suggested and I followed her to the kitchen. She handed me a cup and we headed back to the party.

The louge was crowded with people and you could see couples making out in dark corners of the house. I took a sip of my drink and scanned the room for any familiar faces. I took another sip and almost chocked on it when I saw Noah.

He was wearing blue jeans  and a white v-neck and a black leather jacket. Speechless. He.Looked.Hot. But then I realized he wasnt alone. Next to him stood a petite girl who was wearing a tight black dress that reached under her butt by few inches. It was just then that I realized I wss staring a little too much. His eyes met mine and I felt the heat rizing to my cheeks. Did I just get busted checking a guy out? Wait , no. Did I just get caught checking NOAH out?!! Yup. That settles it. I am a reckless mess.

I broke the eye contact and gulped the entire drink that I was holding. I felt the alcohol burn as I was swallowing.  I dont know why but somehow I was jealous? I cant find the word for it. I felt like beating the shit out of that girl. Maybe its the alcohol.. Ugh. That settles it. I need a break.

I drank god knows how many drinks and now I feel tipsy. Goddamit I needed to pee. The bathroom down stairs was occupied so I had to go upstairs. Walking my drunk self up,I heard footsteps following me. I hurried to the restroom and just as I laid my hand on the door knob.. "Not so fast girly" I was too scared to look around.

"Lets have some fun bitch" the guy spat and I turned around. He took a step closer and I could smell the alcohol leaking from his breath. He was definetly drunk and I was definitely about to shit myself. He dragged me to the bedroom even though I tried kicking and hitting him. I screamed for help but it was like nobody was around.

He pushed me to the bed and started kissing me. I wanted to vommit. He licked and kissed my lips,cheeks and neck. The tears kept falling and my shouts were barely heard.

Just as the guy was about to undress me,the door slammed open. The next thing I saw was my rapist blacked out on the floor and a pissed off Noah standing infront of him. "Yo..u.. You saved me" I managed to say inbetween sobs. "Shhh it's okay. Let's get you out of here" He was my hero. He picked me up bridal style and we took off to god knows were."You are my hero!!" I said as I layed my head in his chest. I could feel his chest vibrating which means that he was chuckling. God,what is he doing to me?
