So let's do a quick flashback of how a crazy party turned into a catastrophe.
" Guess what Ruby, Dustin thinks that this party is actually cool". Sasha said screaming at the top of her lungs.
" Wait did he actually say that?". I mean why won't one of the hottest guys think this party is cool when they are drugs and alcohol involved in it. I mean if this was supposed to be a movie they will rate it eighteen and above because of the dress we wore the kind of songs playing in the background even though some of them are alright I guess.
" Yeah and he thinks you look hot". The thought of Dustin one of the hottest guys in school saying that I look hot made me lose my balance.
" You're lying ". I said trying to find my head that just got lost in cloud nine.
" Oh yeah , that explains why he won't be looking at you with those eyes". I just rolled my eyes and completely ignored her. But what made me want  to jump and squeal like all those other girls in school was when Dustin actually walked up to me.
"Hey Ruby". Oh my God he actually knows my name . I was completely lost in his hotness from his dark brown hair to his hazel nut eyes let's not forget the pink lips, his physique was every girl's dream of how a boy looks like with his chest shining through his shirt because his first two buttons were open and his arms are muscular with veins bulging out of his arm. I mean his smile right now has transported me to the dessert because right now I feel so hot that I'm having sweaty palms and that's not good.
" What's sup?". I tried to sound cool, I hope I did sound cool . I mean I know being a good dancer in your school with your best friend is cool enough but I don't think it's cool enough to attract the Dustin Trevor, is it just me or he moved closer to me.
" I like your dress". He said carefully analysing me and I wish he didn't do that cause I can feel the heat from his eyes on every single part of my body, he later smiles at me and moves even closer I couldn't help to resist his pink lips like how on earth can a boy have such perfect lips.
" Yeah thanks you have great lips by the way". Oh no did I just say that I wish I could take it back but it's too late and it's as if he wasn't offended by it cause all he did was give me this look like he knows what I want and that he is going to give it to me the moment he leans in for it one if his friends call him.
" We'll talk later". He looked at me and walked passed Sasha.
" Did you guys almost...?". Sasha didn't complete the sentence but gave me this look.
" Nah besides I don't think that he can actually like a girl like me".
" Are you kidding me right now?".
" Sasha you know I ain't cool".
" Yeah right I completely forgot that you're a boring person ".
" I thought you will make me feel better ".
" I'll only say that you are cool if you can get high on weed and also consume some alcohol ".
" Did you just make that up?".
" No I didn't, a lot of people have done this stuff which makes people think that they are cooler ".
" Really who brought up this stupid idea?".
" It's actually Chase that brought it up".
" Of course he did, he consumes different kind of drugs every week".
" That's not the point, what I want you to do is to prove to everyone that you are the cool person that is hosting this party and also probably get Dustin's attention too". Sasha said smiling at me.
Initially I didn't want to do it but I later gave into peer pressure most especially after I saw Lexi throwing herself at Dustin that ain't happening in my house I later got to the middle of the room and asked Chase for some weed and asked Sasha to bring some alcohol. Everywhere was quiet and all eyes were on me wondering if I was actually going to do it cause I'm this type of girl that doesn't smoke or take alcohol . It was hard to smoke weed and I felt some congestion in my chest plus the alcohol tastes horrible I wonder why people even consume such nasty stuff.
" Oh my God Ruby you actually did it". Sasha was surprised that I did it and not back out like a chicken.
I was high and feeling funny on the inside and then an idea came to my head.
" Operation look deadly should be carried out". And Sasha just smiled at me like a proud mama . Me and my girls have been practicing this dance routine for sometime where we think that we can actually kill people with our dance steps because of how hot the dance steps were and the music we danced to is 'water by Tyla and Travis Scott'. It was Sasha's idea and she also showed us some dance moves to try since she's partly African she knows how to twerk and also thought us how to do it. So the moment the music plays I let it flow through my body just like water and was imagining how proud Tyla will be for me as a white person that slayed her song with some dance moves. I even did it on the kitchen counter and a whole lot of people were cheering me on and I could see Dustin just staring at me as if he's thirsty for my water dance moves as the song ended I walked up to him and pulled him closer so that we can dance the night away. I guess that being high on weed really helps with my confidence cause the way I dragged Devon and was dancing so close to him like I own him. I mean I was so close to him that I could get the scent of his colone it had a strong scent of lavender and bergamot I wanted that scent to be all over me.
" I heard you crossfaded". Devon said looking at me with this sort of disbelief.
" Don't you believe it?". I said smiling back at him.
" I'm just surprised ". Devon said
I was too high and confident about myself that I was so sure I'm going to kiss Devon tonight. I pulled him closer.
" I am full of surprises ". I said smiling at him and looking at his lips . And it made a perfect curl as he gave his charming smirk normally I would have lost my cool and forget what to do next.
" Don't you think it's about time that you find out another surprise?". I said looking at his lips and he knew my intentions so he also pulled me close and we got closer, close enough to feel each other's heartbeat and just as we were about to make this night memorable with a kiss even though I might wake up and not remember a thing since I'm high, the music stops and everywhere just becomes silent as a graveyard.
" The bastard that turned off the music is going to see what I'll do to them". I said trying to be the boss and just walked towards the place where the music was playing from and I saw my parents standing there looking at me with all amount of disgust. I knew I was in so much trouble that I didn't know what to do next.
" Well unfortunately for you young lady it's your father that you are calling a bastard ". My dad said looking at me. I was so shocked and afraid they were supposed to travel for a meeting outside town for a week but it's only three days and they are back already.
" You are in so much trouble ". My mom sounded very furious and when she looked at my outfit she was so angry that I think that her face turned purple and it's as if her eyes were going to turn red.
" I think the rest of you animals should go back to your cages before we call the cops on you or even worst we can call your parents". My mom said looking at every corner of the room, my dad just stood there looking at me the exact same way a cat looks at a rat before pouncing on it, I knew that I was going to be in a big mess and the worst part is that I might not remember any of this drama that happens when I'll be wide awake tomorrow morning.
" Is that alcohol I smell young lady?". My mom said after she walked past me to close the doors and put one or two things as all the other kids left the house.
My dad just took some few steps closer looking down on me and I felt as if I'm a rat that needs to run inside a hole to hide myself from this big cat.
" I'm sorry". I muttered .
" You also took weed". My dad said after sniffing the little breath that came out from my mouth.
" What?!". My mother shrieked at the top of her lungs right now even a snake's hiss isn't as scary as when my mother shrieks.
" Go to your room we will discuss this tomorrow?". My dad said raising an eyebrow, his expression remains cold and I don't even know what's going to happen to me and what judgement will be passed on to me, I'm just a sixteen year old girl they can't call the cops on me right?.
