My enemy since childhood

Chapter 91

The music could be heard far out on the street as Brooke and I approached Jake's house. I'm surprised the neighbors didn't complain, i thought, pulling my jacket closer to my body.

Just like last time, i had a tight short dress on, so the freezing temperatures that continued to drop the last few days made my legs go numb. It wasn't very far from me to Jake but far enough to risk freezing to death.

"Idiotic, so fucking idiotic to choose a short dress in december" i muttered with shivers running through my body as we walked down Jake's driveway.

"Eh, stop complaining! we are there now" Brooke said quickly and pulled her jacket closer to her.

Ha! she has herself to blame because yes, it was her idea to choose the dress that barely covers our lower part.

"Thank you for that" i mumbled to myself quietly and walked in the front door close behind Brooke.

Warmth, that was all i could think of, please give me warmth! if i could i would have worn the jacket all evening. Apparently Brooke didn't think it was a good idea because she glared at me like i was stupid so i rolled my eyes and slowly took off my jacket, trying to keep the heat in as long as possible.

For the first time ever i was happy that it was very full of people at the party because it was incredibly hot inside the house. So nice, i thought and rocked on my legs to get the circulation back.

"But stop fooling around now, come on let's go get something to drink" Brooke said and started walking away towards the kitchen.

I rubbed my legs a few extra times before i awkwardly tugged at the waistband of the dress to try and make it a little longer, unfortunately with no further results. So with a deep breath i followed her out to the kitchen.

Everywhere i looked, people were standing in big groups. I quickly peeked into the living room where some were dancing and others were sitting on the sofas. Did Jake really knew all these people.

"What do you want?" Brooke shouted over the music and everyone else who was more or less standing yelling at each other to be heard.

"Anything!" i shouted, trying to push my way to Brooke.

"Here" Brooke said handing me a beer.

I took a big gulp and swallowed somewhat convulsively. I didn't know what it was about beer, but no, it wasn't good.

as i forced another sip Brooke hooked her arm with mine and pulled me out to the living room. I reached to try to see where Thomas was, he must have been here for a while as Brooke and i had taken our time getting ready.

"There they are" Brooke called and i immediately felt the eyes on her and the couch where everyone was sitting.

No wonder i didn't see Thomas, a fucking whore sat giggling on his lap. I turned my gaze to Brooke who just gave me a small smile. Good start on the evening, i thought irritated.

I took a deep breath and straightened my hair. Yes, i was jealous, no point in lying about it because Thomas was mine and that chick was going to get that for sure.

"Hey there" i said dryly and raised my eyebrows questioningly when i met Thomas gaze.

The funny thing was that when Thomas stood up so the chick in his lap fell straight to the floor without him seeming to have noticed. With a big smile and glassy eyes he walked up to me but was close to tumbling over. Shit, he was already really drunk, i thought as he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me hard.

"Hey darling" he said slurringly and pulled me to the armchair he had just been sitting in but this time i was the one sitting on his lap.

"Are you drunk already" i said, giving him a sharp look.
