Rylan finally arrived at Sammy's house, where Sammy and Avalia were at. Avalia alerted her aunt that she was "having a sleepover" at Sammy's. You see, Avalia's aunt is very strict. Her bedtime is 8:30, she only gets 30 minutes of screen time, she's stuck in summer school, and she can only hang out with her friends with a 3 weeks notice. Obviously, Avalia doesn't follow these rules, like at this moment.
"Love the pink outfit, miss Valia!" Rylan joked as the two teenage girls hopped in his car. They drove off to the party while listening to rap. Avalia wasn't paying attention as she scrolled through Instagram. She noticed a news video talking about the Ghostbusters. Weren't they in the city?
"So, I was thinking after the party you and I could, you know..." Rylan whispered to Sammy loudly.
"Oh my word, gross. I'm right here," Avalia groaned. Sammy laughed as they pulled in the driveway of the party.
——
Around 11 pm, Avalia checked her phone and decided to call Sammy. She was getting very tired and wanted to sleep. She took a sip from the red cup and waited for her to answer. No response. She called again and started pacing. If she didn't answer, she would have lost her ride. Again, no answer. Avalia huffed.
"Something's wrong?" Avalia turned around and saw an adorable guy staring at her.
"Uh, not really. I think my ride left without telling me," Avalia explained, finishing the cup. The boy put his hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry, pretty girl. I'll take you home right now if you want," the guy offered. Avalia smiled.
"Thanks..."
"Malachi. And you, gorgeous?"
"Avalia. Okay, uhm, let's go then," Avalia replied, following Malachi to his car. He opened the door for her and she got into the passenger seat. Malachi got into the driver's side and looked at Avalia. Avalia was snapping her seatbelt when she turned and met his eyes. The two leaned in and kissed passionately. When they released, Avalia smiled at him. Malachi started the car up and backed out of the driveway. He drove for 10 minutes while talking to Avalia, feeling very attracted to her. He stopped at a park and looked over to Avalia. He tried to reach over to touch her leg, but she shifted uncomfortably.
"Why?" Malachi questioned.
"I'm not comfortable right now. Just take me home, please," Avalia pleaded.
"No, you're going to do what I want. Or else, you'll be kicked out," Malachi threatened. Avalia started to wonder if a ride home was worth it.
"I said no. No means no."
"Fine. Then out the car, right now," Malachi shouted. Avalia's eyes widened, but she gave in. She unbuckled her seatbelt and opened the door. Before she could properly step out, Malachi pushed her out. She fell to the ground of the park, concrete scratching her face. He came around to shut the passenger's door and came back into the driver's seat. He started up the car again and drove off, not caring for Avalia. She spent a minute on the ground, looking for anyone. She saw a figure sitting on a bench with tiny pieces. Avalia tried to stand up and walk to her, but she was partially drunk. She fell right back down and huffed. She stood up again and wobbled over to the person. She could tell it was a girl, and it looked like she had seen a ghost. She sat down across from her when she finally got there.
"Hey," Avalia said, startling the girl. She had curly, black hair and glasses sliding down the bridge of her nose. She was playing a game of chess, by herself?
"Are you just gonna sit there and stare at me or give a response?" Avalia spat.
"Uh, sorry, who are you?" The girl asked.
"Avalia Baker. You probably don't know me since I am veryyyyyyy new to town," Avalia replied. She felt tired and just wanted to sleep.
"Phoebe. Phoebe Spengler. What's wrong with you?" Phoebe questioned. Avalia frowned at the response.
"Damn, you didn't have to word it like that. I'm kind of drunk and my ride wanted to do it but I said no and got kicked out and now..." Avalia stopped in the middle of her sentence, turned around and vomited on the ground. She sighed and pulled out a piece of gum to fix her breath.
"Oh, I'm sorry?"
"No worries. I just need to get back to my friend Sammy's house before..." Oh shit, Avalia thought. She didn't know where Sammy was. Avalia checked her phone, but it died while she was in the car. She put her head in her hands and started crying.
"Hey, it's okay. I guess you can come to my house for the night and charge your phone. Then check it in the morning," Phoebe offered.
"Your place already? Wow," Avalia joked, flustering Phoebe.
"Uh, I-"
"I'm just messing with you, Phoebe. Wait, how old are you?"
"Fifteen. Why?"
"Weren't you the Ghostbuster kicked out because of age?" Avalia asked. Phoebe slowly nodded. "Well I think the mayor is a bastard for that. A bald one. Okay, please take me to your house before I fall asleep here." Phoebe nodded quickly this time and helped Avalia up, taking her shoulder and helping her walk.
The rest of the night was a blur for Avalia. All she remembered was getting into the house, a guy a little bit older than Phoebe laughing at her, and a woman looking concerned. Avalia slept on the couch while Phoebe took her phone to charge it in her room. The rest of the night was unknown.
