All You Got

chapter 08

Luna

"Can you zip me up real quick, Lu?" Mariah says and nudges closer to me. We're at Josh's room, it's 9pm right now, and we're getting ready. Mariah chose to wear a black mini dress, that fits her like a glove, with converse and straightened hair, while I'm wearing a white bodycon dress, with my hair in waves, like they naturally are. We're polar opposites, that's what Josh said when we told him what we're wearing. Yet, I'm wearing black converse and she wears white. Ha. The party has started, just now, and very few people are downstairs. Desai's house is huge, bigger than David's and Leo's, perfect for a party. Music is blasting from downstairs as Mariah and I finish getting ready and we go downstairs finally, around 9.10. No sign of Damon. Not like I care anyways, it's just that Josh said he'll be back Saturday, and we've been here since 5pm.. Yeah, I kind of missed him. I want to kiss him again. And tease him. But I shouldn't get attached.

"Gorgeous. Gorgeous." Josh says and we smile, telling him the same thing, and then turn to Leah, Leo and David. People are starting to come, noone from the older group though, people from our highschool only, and tourists. We love to make fun of them. I know it's mean, yes.

"Let's pour ourselves drinks!" I exclaim and give everyone, my friends, I wouldn't put 40 people drinks, a cup of tequila with juice, and we start drinking.

Leo and Leah start making out quickly after, while Mariah and David, alongside Josh dance. I, on the other hand, am sitting down at the couch, watching people enter the house.

9.40.

"Oh, come on girl, get up, it's our song." Mariah comes to my direction, kind of struggling since the house is full, almost full, not even close to full but you know what I mean, the living room is full with people, and takes my hand, making me sit up and do a spin. I giggle and dance with them three, enjoying myself with my friends.

"Come on mama, shake it." I don't shake my ass, I am just doing body rolls, but Mariah is hyping me up like I'm doing something spectacular and I love her for that. I'm dancing with Josh and David at both my sides, drink my liquor, when the door opens again.

And Olivia, Simon, Dean (to my bad luck) and a few others from the "older group" enter, laughing, with Damon and a few guys I didn't know behind him. It's been exactly a week since I last saw him and I feel my sex throbbing already. Jesus, Luna, get a grip.

"Stay unaffected girl." Mariah comes to my ear and whispers, about Dean obviously, and I roll my eyes and nod, dancing and singing once again.

"Who cares about him?" I yell in order to be heard and she smiles brightly.

They come our way. Fuck, why?

They wave to everyone, and me yeah, when Dean stares at me.

"Hey, Lulu." he calls me and I roll my eyes, scoffing.

"Stop calling me Lulu for fuck's sakes." I exclaim and his eyes widen, and everyone's too, like they don't know what he did to me. Everyone knows. Damon and the guys I don't know are just behind, and they heard too, Damon staring at me, before his lips twist to a slight smirk.

Simon and Olivia go and sit at the couch, and it's Dean, Damon and those guys. Dean looks like a boy next to Damon, and they're almost the same height, Damon's taller. And the same age.

Dean opens his mouth to speak again, but I roll my eyes, and leave, going to the keg to refill my drink. And he goes to the couch too.

I turn my gaze to Damon, finding him staring at me already and I look at him too, my cup next to my lips and I bite it softly, out of anxiety and his eyes go there, and back to my eyes immediately.
