The music was starting to slow down. As it was hitting 10. It's a school dance that finished at 11. The volume was decreasing rapidly until it was off completely and we see Ms. Rachiero on stage. "Sorry to interrupt your night but I have amazing news" she started, "out of thousands of students across this country the only student to submit a Poem in the competition in our entire school was in the top 10 this Wednesday" she paused but we new she wasn't finished. "Melaani Avidago came in first place and with the permission of teachers and the votes you've put in, she will be coming up and reading her poem."
I didn't agree to this. I didn't even know about this. I felt the spot light on me and forced myself to walk up onto the stage. As I got up there I was given a microphone. "um hi everyone," I can't do this I looked around until I found Caleb's eyes, I can do this,
"LifeSometimes in life
Things aren't always as they seem.
People could be broken
Mentally and physically.
Broken by themselves
Or others.
A lot of the time people think
What if that was me.
Then I think.
That is me.
I'm the one no one wants to be.
I'm the one who would cry every night
I'm the one who would bleed
By my own hand.
I'm living the life
No teenager would want to live
I'm living the life
I gave myself." I've read this poem so many times I've learned how to not cry. But, as I looked around I noticed people wiping tears away and instead of clapping they were snapping. I gave the microphone back and walked to Caleb. "That was amazing" he slightly smiled, "thank you" I whispered as the music picked up again. It's was 10:40 when we decided to leave but before we actually left we went to the car to grab our extra clothes for the after party. I wore a black cocktail dress that was extremely fitted and showed every curve. By the time I left the washroom Caleb was outside waiting for me. I could see in the look in his eyes that he was loving the view. I smiled as I grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the car.The house party was near my area. The house was slightly isolated so even if the music was 'too loud' the neighbours probably wouldn't hear. Apparently the parents weren't in town which isn't exactly a surprise. The music was so loud I wouldn't be surprised if my hearing wasn't that great by the morning. Alec was here and he was already tipsy just like me. He kept on giving me a glare when he see me dancing on Caleb. As the night was going we decided to play spin the bottle. It was a girls turn named Natalie, she spines the bottle and it lands on me. By now I wasn't as tipsy since I didn't continue drinking. We were on our hands and knees as we leaned in and start kissing. Her lips were warm against mine and her slightly cold tongue licked my bottom lip asking for entrance. I let her in as she tasted like vodka, going deeper and deeper I bit her bottom lip causing her to moan and sat back to continue our game. Luckily everyone in this room was too drunk to video tape it. Besides my brother but he didn't care. It was my turn to spin and as the bottle was slowing down some kid I've never met stood up and someone else sat down having it land on them. When I see who it is I'm happy, it's Caleb but I can see hatred in my brothers face. I grabbed Caleb's hand and head him out the room, "continue without us" I called out.
I walked into a random room realizing it was a guest room. "What are we doing here?" Caleb asked while wrapping his arms around my waist. Caleb made me feel ways I've never felt before. I walked Caleb back until he was sitting on the bed and no longer hugging my waist, it was only his hands holding my waist. I placed my hands on his shoulders as I removed my heels and sat on his lap. Just as he was about to speak I placed my lips on his. We were in sync. I felt his grip on me tighten as we started kissing in a faster motion. His hands explored my body sending shocks of electricity throughout. He licked my bottom lip bagging for entrance, but I didn't let him in, his hands travelled until they reached my ass and gripped causing me to gasp. He took this advantage as he slid tongue into my mouth. Feeling the kiss going deeper I moved my hips against his causing a grinding motion. Never breaking the kiss he leaned back laying down on the bed. Breaking the kiss I moved down to his neck kissing lower and lower as i unbuttoned his shirt. Leaving hickies on his neck, his hands grip onto my boobs causing me to bite harder and causing him to let out a moan. He flips us over, putting me on the bed as he removed his shirt and placed his lips onto mine again.
Lost in his kiss and his touch I jump as I see my brother push him off me and punched him across the jaw. I can tell by the way he's walking he was sobering up fairly quickly. "I told you to stay away from her, she is my sister, she is not something you can toy with" he yelled, I've never heard him rage like this before. I stand up in complete shock and fear cleaning myself up. "Like you care about her, you didn't even want people to know you're related, you know about the bet, I almost had it and you just ruined it" Caleb said calm and not giving a fuck that I was there. I felt the tears starting to form "a toy, a bet, that's all I was to you" I said in shock. "Oh sweetheart come on, do you really think I would have talked to the loser you, this version is just so much better, of course I wouldn't be stupid enough to let someone else take the bet" he said with a sinister laugh. I felt my arm rise up and smack him hard across the face, making my hand red and sting. I ran out the door not wanting to hear anymore and not far behind me was my brother.
Reaching Caleb's car I opened the back door removing my belongings and started to walk home. It was around 1:30 and home was just two blocks away. Not far behind me I heard someone clear their throat, "look sis I'm sorry and I know I should have told you sooner but I didn't know it was you. I thought it was someone else and I know that doesn't make it better but please say something." Alec pleaded. "Just leave me alone, you were never a brother towards me until now, you are just like everyone else, I'm your own sibling and you bullied me, physically, verbally, mentally bullied me. You did it all." I said trying not to cry. "I'm not letting you walk home alone" Alec said which is understandable. No one knew who was out at a time like this. "Fine." That's all I knew I could say. Alec grabbed my dress and wrapped an arm around my shoulders trying to comfort me. It wasn't long now that we were home. I took the dress and nodded at him heading to the pool house and locking the door. I hanged the dress in the closet and let the dress I was in fall to the floor as i unzipped it. I grabbed my sweat pants and baggy shirt and went straight to bed. Leaving the makeup and hair spray in. I'll take a shower when I wake up.
Wanting to forget the past events I played music and let myself fall into a deep sleep.
